Recent analysis finds:
“the number
of competitive grants
awarded by
the National Institutes of Health
is down by more than half
compared with
the same period last year,”
and though it’s true
that funding NIH grants
is expensive,
not funding them
will cost us even more.

I know this because my father created and led the USY Poland Seminar for Jewish teens, which predates March of the Living by a year. They took videos on the first couple of summers and the group visiting Sobibor is in one of the videos.

Poland used to even struggle to acknowledge that Jews were victims of the Nazis.

The original plaque at Sobibor (when it was no more than the barrier at the end of the tracks) didn't mention Jews as victims at all in '87.

Eventually this changed and a real memorial went up.

Polish town’s new ‘information center’ denies murders of Jews by local Poles in 1941 Family of Jewish man who survived the Jedwabne massacre is trying to get the new installation removed: 'We call it a denial museum, because that’s what it is'

The Jedwabne pogrom of 1941 was one of the most brutal acts in the entire Shoah, committed by Poles against Polish Jews, not by the occupying Germans. Now the local government and people are denying that Poles committed this act. www.timesofisrael.com/polish-towns...

70 powerful Bay Area men were accused of sexual misconduct. What happened next? Since 2010, scores of prominent local men have faced allegations ranging from sexual harassment to rape. Most have returned to the highest echelons of public life.

Also: "We did not include allegations against local clergy, because there are too many."

Trump’s unconstitutional war was not authorized by Congress, was started without a plan or an exit strategy, and has achieved none of the contradictory objectives used to justify it.

Oh, and it cost taxpayers at least $40 billion.

It’s important to remember that the goal of lawsuits like the one brought by Kash Patel against the Atlantic isn’t to win, it’s to cost the Atlantic as much money as possible only to drop the suit before discovery, and as red meat for the MAGA base by simply filing it.

Democrats should make the confirmation hearing on the nominee to be U.S. Attorney General all about the Epstein files.

If you won’t commit to release the files without redactions and prosecute the Epstein class, then you’re obstructing justice, not enforcing it.
