Board chair at Cancer Free Kids, a 501(c)(3) helping fund pediatric cancer research that normally would go un funded.

Also did some other stuff, in many places.
So close!

I asked the J6 pod what they thought of tariffs, and their answer was surprisingly cogent.

No voice but gulls in distant flight,
No sound but tide’s eternal hum—
A breath between the day and night,
Where every thought and worry’s numb.

Here peace arrives without a name,
And time forgets its claim to run.
The world, once wild, is soft and tame—
Beneath the clouds, beneath the sun.

What’s the deal with short term treasury bonds? There’s $10Trillion that need to be refinanced in a high interest rate period.

Can anybody explain the strategy?

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Well, a cap on 15% of indirect & administrative overhead. No mention on overall funding levels

How is this going to impact research. @mcuban.bsky.social ?

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social

Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

A few days in the desert seeing battlebots.

BattleBots!

Was a lot of fun. Glad we went as watching it on TV was interesting, but seeing it live and how big the robots are is a totally different experience.

Nothing like watching your kids grow into fun young adults.

Proud of Jack for staying on track in university and maintaining a social life.

We distributed $1.4m in grants this year for clinical new ideas and follow on grants.

Some bright shining things in a tumultuous decade.
