It is a little weird to me countries aren’t more aggressively, formally trying to take advantage of the U.S. science brain drain. Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy low on Non-Dumbass Americans with PhDs who just wanna look into microscopes and quietly cure ass cancer as our country eats shit.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

From a national security perspective, this is asinine. Every security training I’ve ever been through is like “don’t send Bob Customer 03’s address via email! That’s sensitive info!!!” But cool, let’s give our enemies advance notice we’re gonna email OUR ENTIRE GOVT’s OPERATIONS for last week. 🤌🏽
From a FOIA perspective, "the entire federal workforce should write down and email what they did last week" is extremely funny

Your periodic reminder that no tax cut in the history of tax cuts has ever paid for itself.
Republican tax cut expectations would “require fantastical levels of sustained economic growth” to offset lost revenue, says Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.
