Show me a better investment than that.

It's hard to say this, but science (& research more generally) is just being **stopped** in the US right now. This is just one university, losing nearly a billion dollars in project funding pretty much overnight. That's people's jobs & the research that could save lives.

Childhood illnesses tend to be quite more severe in adults. Every adult I have ever seen with measles or chickenpox or mumps was hospitalized or very ill. To die of measles in 2025 is a sad and deeply unfortunate choice.

Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.

If I were Trump, I would be laughing at the fact that I took over the country to sell it for parts, and I duped 77 million Americans into electing me to do it.
This has gotta be one of the most successful cons in history.
