we are on the verge of curing maybe the worst cancer of all the cancers but the whole right wing media makes too much money scaring people about "mRNA vaccines" so time to toss that in the trash
Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.

They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.
Exclusive: NIH officials have advised scientists to remove reference to mRNA vaccines from their grant applications, in expectation the Trump administration intends to abandon most research in the field.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social now wants to bring California State Workers back in office 4 days per week, despite data showing workers are more productive from home. He won’t say it, but he’s trying to get us to quit right before we hit a recession

Marjorie Taylor Greene literally showed a dick pic last year in our Oversight hearing, so I thought I'd show one as well: a picture of President Elon Musk.
