The cost-saving claims don’t hold up. Every dollar in NIH research grants generates $2.46 in economic activity, research shows—a total of $93 billion in 2023 alone.
“It’s incredible to me that we would give up this thing that has such obvious societal benefits,” says biologist Mark Peifer.

Unlike all those garbage “we fought a revolution over tariffs” takes, this one is essentially true.
The last time the U.S. picked a trade fight with Britain, it turned into a war with Canada… and ended with the White House on fire.
Let’s see how this one plays out.

225 years later, the Founders’ real patrimony is doubling down on who doesn’t belong in their America. That’s why Trump can still reach back to a law from 1798 and use it to wreck civil rights like it’s the 18th century, or even the 1940s, again.

And he runs from the accountability. This is the issue with many historians: you’re just there to swallow their distortions. Not question them. Not challenge them. Boy, they don’t like that, even when you’re as wrong as this guy.
Here we go. Hold people accountable for getting it wrong and, right or left, they get petty. Over here in the public history of the American Revolution, we’ll stick getting the past right first, and then think about achieving modern politics goals with it.

Check out the Block friends. For those of you used to what we do, this is about honest history. For Seth Cotlar, it’s “agree or be blocked.” See what we’re up against, right or left, regardless of platform? #honesthistory
“Yet he knew he wasn’t above the law”. “…surely those folks knew the score.” Turning that moment, and his subsequent treatment of Ona Judge, into a positive case study takes some real manipulation of the historical context. But that’s precisely what these people do.

It's common to report optimism before a change in power but the young people excited for Trump should embarrass Democrats.

I saw more people in intimate or casual moments, rumpled, on bad hair days, with zit patches, than anywhere before. And I also learned more about makeup than I ever had. The recentering of presentation as expression & play, not obligation. But maybe that’s what I told it I wanted to see.
