It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Scared? No, he just doesn’t want to be found out. We’re paying him how much to do what? Oh yea, that’s right, he’s the President. Proven during his cabinet meeting. It was all about Elon.

Warren: I think this is one of those things where they kind of build their alternative reality, and Elon spends all of his time with people who don't contradict him. You know, Elon, there's a whole real world out here, and the real world has some serious questions about what you're up to.

Fighting for a system that is killing our planet and all life, seems to be against our own interest. They all take dark and hush money. The system must die, and we must become uncomfortable. None of this is sustainable.

My latest. I wanted to take today off but I think more Americans need to know this before it's forgotten by tomorrow. "Elon Musk and JD Vance's Support of Germany's Nazi-Loving AfD Party Should Be Much Bigger News" thelefthook.substack.com/p/elon-musk-...

Elon Musk and JD Vance's Support of Germany's Nazi-Loving AfD Party Should Be Much Bigger News
Elon Musk & J.D. Vance tweeted in support of the AfD Party whose racist, anti-immigrant ideologies are shared by a terrorist who just killed 5 people in Germany. Maybe it's not "economic anxiety."
