One explanation for the rise in obesity in industrialized countries is that people burn fewer calories than people in countries where obesity is rare. A major study finds that's not the case.

Trump’s team is already saying they will not spend funds that Congress has authorized and appropriated.
There is no point in Democrats voting to fund the government only to let Trump and Musk do whatever they see fit with those funds.

How is this not the biggest scandal in America right now? Isn’t this unprecedented??
Maybe Dems in the Senate should take a break from voting to confirm Trump nominees & condemn the guy who said he wanted Pelosi ‘hanged’ on Jan 6th, & also condemn the guy who just released him from prison! Sheesh.
