"Tanner, a chemist at the Univ. of Mississippi working to develop a novel approach for treating glioblastoma, was notified in April that the grant was terminated. “I would like to cure brain cancer,” Dr. Tanner said. “I think that's not particularly controversial.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Jon is a Marine Corps veteran who served at Camp Pendleton. Here’s what he thinks of Pete Hegseth’s threats to deploy Marines in Los Angeles.

I remember the white people (some who also had their children) and some Black men wearing a "Kamala is h** "shirt and not many said anything.

Y’all called Kamala a cop….now look what you got….

“This is not what we voted for” is exactly what you voted for. You were just too lazy to read Project 2025 and too gullible to believe Trump when he said it wasn’t the plan.

Both statements are from last night. Note difference between how Trump characterizes conditions in LA ("RIOTS AND LOOTERS"), vs how the LAPD does ("Peaceful Protests")

ICE shot a reporter... "Nick Stern, a British news photographer based in Los Angeles, is set to undergo emergency surgery for a wound sustained during the standoff between police and anti-Ice protesters in Los Angeles on Saturday."

I mean what plan did you have after “teaching us a lesson” Y’all literally helped create this mess and now you want us to fix it for you? Absolutely thee hell not Black folks (especially Black Women) have been the backbone and stood in the gap for decades Round up your lil friends & fix YOUR MESS

We’re past the point of, “this is what authoritarianism looks like.” Or, “heading toward fascism.” Or, “becoming a dictatorship.” We have arrived.

Vote shaming isn’t a thing that exists. This country has a 2-party system, not a parliamentary one. You voted for the major party & candidate that was against all of this or you voted explicitly for it either by directly choosing it or throwing the vote to someone who was never close to realistic.

“Starr, who said he has already racked up $300,000 in unanticipated expenses because of tariffs, said the prospect of business tax cuts is of little use if his profits are zeroed out from tariffs.”

Nope. What's useless is not voting, inciting a civil war within the Democratic Party and them expect people to come together after you shitted on them, dismissed their warnings and continue to implode the only viable party in the entire country with a big tent.
