No, Tylenol does not cause autism. And there is no compelling evidence that leucovorin reduces symptoms. A consensus summary is found here - www.coalitionofautismscientists.org

Trump Still Polling Well With Working-Class American Pedophiles theonion.com/trump-s...

An outright fanatic who wants to stop all scientific research

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell... does not think the NIH should exist as all. I would like to hear from @Ushu Vance, @Jared Kushner, and @Ivanka Trump how they feel about a Christian nationalist manipulating the budget to advance the Christian state.

www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025... The best part is that the company website has a picture of three clowns and no names under “our people”.

The Washington Post has the Schnabel story. "A $3.3 million NIH [sole source] contract to a Louisiana company, Argo Chasing, named Trish Duffy Schnabel, the wife of the NIH’s chief operating officer on its list of staff, according to the officials. " 1/

Stop asking billionaires questions, recording their answers and sharing their uninformed and/or racist and/or otherwise bigoted and nonsense ideas as journalism. It’s ridiculous. They are the most boring people. Oh wah I am a white man who has more money than I can spend and I’m so mad about it!

My dad was a student and associate of Kissinger. I am reminded of what Kissinger said to Nixon about giving Checkers (the dog) a cookie to stop it from chewing the rug: “You have just taught your dog to chew the rug.”

Ouch

WATCH: Sen. Cory Booker has broken the record for the longest U.S. Senate speech. Booker's marathon speech breaks the previous record — Sen. Strom Thurmond's filibuster against the Civil Rights Act of 1957 that stretched for 24 hours and 18 minutes.

Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

If the decimation of NIH, Medicaid, USAID, academic institutions, etc continues for the next 6 months under a CR there will be NOTHING LEFT to protect. Imagine that a large percentage of our reps’ staff had been fired and reps’ budgets cut; I have NO DOUBT that our reps would vote NO to the CR then.

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

From an NIH person: “All the federal employees I know agree: SHUT IT DOWN!!”

AOC on senate Dems caving and backing the CR: “A wide sense of betrayal.”

No, Democrats, these little auction signs aren't it. You're acting like Wes Anderson characters who don't understand that they're in a Tarantino movie.

The state of the union is that the President is spitting in the face of the law. He is letting an unelected billionaire fire cancer researchers and wreck federal agencies like the Social Security Administration at will. I won't be attending tomorrow's Joint Address.

Ryan Cooper is one of the few people in journalism to actually convey the scale of what Elon and the Muskjugend are doing, which may be the crime of the century. Please read and share this article.
