a standing ovation for daraxonrasib at asco. over 40k oncologists, entrepreneurs, investors, and patient advocates together celebrating revmed's breakthru in the fight against pancreatic cancer. u never forget these moments. it's what innovation is all about.

@Globalbiosec Have to agree. Too many people were pointing to potential rodents aboard but that's not too likely on a luxury vessel. Andes virus makes the most sense.

@chico_ray It makes no sense, unless Trump is working for Russia. It's not like the biggest users of the the Maxwell/Epstein honey trap weren't the FSB and Mossad.

@WarMonitor3 The job was essentially done by special forces disruption of Al Qaeda bases in Afghanistan. Arguably, the full invasion and occupation of Afghanistan was disproportionate and unnecessary. And please don't get us started on Iraq 2.0. The whole pretext was false.

@_HenryBolton Goes beyond Britons. As Canadians, we were so proud of a king reminding the world that the core message of the Magna Carta is that executive power needs checks and balances.

[David Patrick @DavidPatrickMD]

@jimsciutto As important, was hearing from a king that ever since the Magna Carta, we've understood that executive power needs checks and balances.

@WarMonitor3 My Grandad built the planes that won the Battle of Britain and then the ones that took the fight to the Nazi home turf.

PM Carney on the Americans calling the alcohol ban an irritant: "You know what's an irritant? 50% tariffs on steel. 50% tariffs on aluminum. 25% tariffs on automobiles. All the tariffs on forest products. Those are more than irritants, those are violations of our trade deal."

@SenMarkKelly He learned this the hard way. The US siege of Quebec failed because the Continental Army hot smallpox. British Regulars and Canadian Militia defending the city had been vaccinated and didn’t get sick. At least Washington had an open enough mind to learn from experience.

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial. Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

JD Vance is lecturing the Pope on Catholicism and Pierre Poilievre is lecturing Mark Carney on economics and RFK Jr is lecturing scientists about vaccines and Donald Trump is lecturing the world on tariffs and Pete Hegseth is quoting Pulp Fiction and thinking it’s the Bible

@KR3Wmatic Tell her she's wonderful & that question are the first step in exploring the wonders of reality: the structure of the Universe and complex life evolving over millions of years are more supported by evidence and much more awe inspiring than any iron age text.

These astronauts are just a balm: impossibly cheery, down to earth, committed, decent. They are clearly extraordinary people, and yet reassuringly normal. At a time when the news is dominated by people who are either cruel or corrupt or insane or incompetent or all of the above, they remind us not all is lost.

The U.S. has a Buy American Act baked into law…

but Canadians buying Canadian products is “unfair”?

You don’t get to write the rules and cry when we play the same game. 🇨🇦

Buy Canadian first.

@AndySaunders_1 I appreciate all the analysis from you camera buffs, but I can't help but notice that Africa is now upside down.

@bushontheradio They'll find 30-50 minutes of peace, during which they receive no social media transmissions from idiots back on Earth.

The first time since 1972 that humans have seen a crescent Earth in full.
