I miss Canadian Tire living in the States. There is no equivalent here.

Important info from @cato.org about how immigrants contribute to our country:
"The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023."
Facts matter.
Yikes. I didn't realize that's what they were aiming for. Thanks.
I guess it could have been a lot worse π
Ugh. Thanks.
Does "allows" mean an expectation or requirement that MYF be used for 39% of funds?
Is it at the discretion of POs to use MYF versus the traditional one year at a time method?
Both chambers of Congress have now passed the FY26 minibus with NIH provisions. The President will sign.
(1) $48.7 billion for NIH
(2) Full IDC recovery
(3) No more multi-year funding
(4) No NIH reorganization, maintaining the current IC structure.
That's certainly what I'm thinking whenever I actually do answer the phone. Especially at work. π€£
Good job Priya π
PI in the lab - not so scary ππ

And there you have it. The bully strategy - said out loud.
Anti-Trump. Not Anti-American.
Today is the tipping point.

Abolish ICE. Shame on all those in congress who didnβt block their funding π€¬

Immigrants have a credit score of ZERO when they arrive.
It takes years of living here (legally) to gain a decent one. π€¦πΌββοΈ
So it's ok for Texas but not for California to redistrict? WTF

Tesla only still exists because of government subsidies paid by American tax payers.

Are private jets being affected by this? Cause we could just cancel all those instead π€·ββοΈ
What a bummer π£
Hereβs the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reaganβs words here βFAKEβ and βfraudulent.β Theyβre 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:
Doug Ford on 10/14/25: Let's take Ronald Reagan's words and let's blast it to the American people. And our first launch is going to be on every major network...we're going to launch a $75 million ad, and we're going to repeat that message to every Republican district right across the entire country.
Our dept is hiring! π€©
while this is good news, the fact that a significantly lower number of awards were funded will cause significant long term damage to the research enterprise in this country. π
Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.
Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.
People have power. Ask Target
