#NIH to resume funding health research grants for studies after analysis of #Drumpf #admin orders to halt critical medical research grants were found illegal, not justified and most of all #irrelevant

Staff is finally authorized to issue new and continuing grants under existing "funding policies." This means critical federal #funding for #research on everything from #cancer treatments to #heartdisease prevention to stroke interventions will resume despite weeks of #DJT admin scare tactics and meddling outside their tiny intellectual wheelhouse

From the article, "When asked if he’d received the Pfizer vaccine, #Kobach declined to answer. “I think whether I’ve received the #vaccination is #irrelevant to the #lawsuit, it’s not about me,” he said. “It’s about the statements that were made to the people of Kansas.” "

Or, how to say the #QuietPart out loud without actually saying the words.

He could have said, "Yes, I received the vaccine because I was told it was safe and effective at the time. More investigation has led me to conclude otherwise." And that would have been the perfect ending.
Instead he just makes it clear he's a #hypocrite.

"the heart of the matter is that #PheuThai has never recovered .. The #justice ministry's treatment of Thaksin by letting him serve #jail time on the 14th floor of the Police General #Hospital is simply #disgraceful .. His trips to the provinces only attracted the same #elderly supporters. Thaksin is becoming #irrelevant .. #Politicians, regardless of political affiliation, should serve the people and make #Thailand a country of hope"

2/ “Asked if he was comfortable with states charging who obtain after the law allows, he very notably did not say “no” but rather: “It’s whether I’m comfortable or not. It’s totally irrelevant, because the are going to make those decisions.” (As Time notes, President Joe Biden “has said he would fight state antiabortion measures in court and with regulation.”)
has tried to cast himself as a on reproductive rights…”

Weirdest thing just happened. Someone I've never met or heard of just asked me on a call in front of a bunch of folks if I've ever heard of or used the application I dedicated 15 years of my life supporting. Including 5 years as its sole product owner.

I was speechless. A few friends who were on the call laughed at the absurdity. Before I could respond she proceeded to "mansplain" it to me.

Perhaps the hardest lesson I've had to learn with age is the decline of my own relevancy. No one warned me about becoming irrelevant. Constant reminders that I'm past my prime. Sucks, NGL. #Old #OverTheHill #Irrelevant
