An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it. Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities ā including the grant for this device. The cruelty is endless.

This 4-year-old's heart is failing. A federal grant that might help him was canceled
A Cornell University researcher has been developing an artificial heart for children for more than 20 years. Now, his research is on hold and his lab is shut down.

āHope is often misunderstood. People tend to think that it is simply passive wishful thinking: I hope something will happen but Iām not going to do anything about it. This is indeed the opposite of real hope, which requires action and engagement.ā Dr Jane Goodall Rest in peace.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Let me get this straight. The GOP believes Human Trafficking that they hear about, without a shred of evidence, on radio talk shows & podcasts. But the women which were little girls, reporting that they were raped, with all kinds of photographic & video evidence, their testimony is nothing but lies?
