This could be a huge breakthrough.
A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

On Wed, the brothers were arrested & charged with computer crimes

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

This was handed in for a PSYCH CLASS & when the prof said she didn't use empirical sources but rather submitted op-ed she whined about religious liberty + prof got suspended.

I was a *Religious Studies* major; in my time she would have been rightly BBQ'd had she dared to hand in this absolute drek.

Republicans say Democratic lawmakers are causing discord and distrust by reminding service members to follow their oath.

I think what's bringing discord and distrust is the America first movement online is a bunch of bot farms coming from Nigeria, Russia, and Iran.

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

CORRECTION: They dissolved *some* of the Washington Post journalist's body in acid.

The *rest* they barbecued on a grill until it was incinerated.

I know because I wrote a chapter on it in Proof of Conspiracy (Macmillan).

Trump thereafter bragged about "saving MBS's ass."

These are all monsters.
