BROWN: Would you support getting rid of school lunch for vulnerable kids and getting rid of childhood cancer research?
REP. MCCORMICK: Philanthropy is where you get most of your money for childhood cancer research. When you talk about school lunches, hey, I worked my way through high school.

FLAG: Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli says he's pursuing several election fraud investigations with the FBI over California's vote count.
There is zero evidence of fraud.
This comes after Trump claimed fraud was taking place — despite providing zero evidence to support that claim.

This is completely false. Even the largest university endowment cannot sustain large-scale scientific research.
In my 25 years at my school, the most monumental research fund drive raised $325M in *total*. Federal research here costs $200M per *every year*.
This is an extinction-level event.

Undergraduate research opportunities are incredibly valuable, both for the students and for the progress of the work. And having undergraduate research experience is a massive help for grad school admission. REU cancellations harm students’ preparedness & career prospects, and slow research progress

Ok sure, eggs are more expensive and inflation isn’t lowering, but at least they cut the funding for childhood cancer research, stopped monitoring Bird flu, shutdown Medicaid, stripped hungry kids of their school lunches and took hot meals away from seniors

Really tragic. I got my PhD from Hopkins and think the school has contributed so much with its research dollars
We just got an email that Hopkins is freezing salaries, hiring, and some construction projects. In addition to the 800 million USAID we lost, we’ve had another 50 million in grants canceled so far. And a 2/3 year over year decline in funded grants despite an increase in submissions
