California Fire Facts | Governor Gavin Newsom Get the facts about the Los Angeles fires.

The world is literally burning, and rather than doing anything to help, Donald Trump and his friend, the richest man in the world, are spreading lies to gain more power. The message is clear, not only do they want to help, they want to mock America's corpse.

Trumpโ€™s team looking at withholding massive research grants from โ€˜wokeโ€™ schools Trumpโ€™s nominee to head the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, wants to target so-called โ€˜cancel cultureโ€™ at top universities

"Bhattacharya wants to take on what he views as academic conformity in science, which pushed him aside over his criticism of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including his opposition to school closures and mask mandates to stop the spread of the virus.

It was the right thing to do. It has been a totally irrational prosecution. There is no telling what 47 would have done.

What a great day of #Immunology at #UVA! Trainees from three Immunology Centers came together to present a wide array of fantastic science on inflammation, immunology, and neuroimmunology!

This will destroy the infectious disease field. Where do all these scientists go when there is no NIH funding? Who will train the next generation of ID scientists if they are gone? What happens when the next new virus hits and there are no trained scientists left?

This is not how science works!
