I'd love to have this in my yard. No watering, no weeds, hahahaha! In parts of Europe, the government supplies solar panels and installs them, just a week after a homeowner requests them. Also available here in US, portable & even 'hangable' solar panels, perfect for a sunny balcony or deck!

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.
Sixty years after the Voting Rights Act became a landmark law against racial discrimination, legal challenges heading to the Supreme Court could curtail its remaining protections for minority voters.
3/3 When history records this moment, it will read as a case study in how ideology can overrule evidence—how lives that could have been saved by precision oncology were instead lost to performative ignorance. This is biological vandalism masquerading as policy.
2/3 Political demolition of mRNA infrastructure will not simply delay publications/grants; it will collapse developmental pipelines. Science is cumulative—pull one keystone & years of incremental advances in immunotherapy, tumor microenvironment targeting & personalized treatment disintegrate.
1/3 As an oncology scientist, I must stress: dismantling mRNA research is not just an attack on “vaccines,” it is an assault on the very scaffolding of modern oncology. This technology is not hypothetical—it is the most promising translational bridge between genomic insight and real-world remission.
DSG New Article: mRNA isn’t just a COVID miracle—it’s revolutionizing cancer treatment and the future of medicine. But political sabotage threatens to kill this life-saving #Science. Dive into why halting #mRNA research isn’t just reckless—it’s a deadly betrayal of progress and hope. (plz repost)

People exploding this false messaging that I voted for a bill + funding that I quite literally voted NO on. The threat environment this morning is scary. Doesn’t help anyone. Drag me for the position if you disagree but don’t lie. It’s out of control. Saying I voted for this funding is false.
It's happening in real time. So sorry you had to live that, Mr. Takei.
When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
