Today is my mom‘s birthday, so I’ve texted her a couple of times to wish her a happy birthday and see what she has planned. No response, so I finally texted my brother to see if he took her out this evening.
It turns out that my brothers have been calling her all day to talk to her and wish her a happy birthday, too. So my oldest brother finally drove over to check on her and found that she is just fine. Her phone simply wasn’t working.
What a relief.

The best and brightest young scientists are looking beyond the U.S. as cuts hit home

The Trump administration’s slowdown in science funding — which stalled thousands of grants at the NIH and NSF, among other organizations — has left U.S.-based scientists and researchers scrambling to find homes for promising work that could lead to medical treatments and cures.

Trump Policies at Odds With ‘Make America Healthy Again’ Push

In his March address to Congress, President Trump honored a Texas boy diagnosed with brain cancer. Amid bipartisan applause, he vowed to drive down childhood cancer rates through his “Make America Healthy Again” initiative.

But even as he extols MAHA, Trump has unleashed a slew of policies likely to make Americans less healthy.

Americans’ health is being put at risk after new cuts were announced by Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency to reduce staffing to 1980s levels and gut its scientific research arm, experts and advocacy groups warned.

The EPA’s administrator announced that the agency would slash its budget by $300m in the fiscal year 2026 as part of a broad overhaul that was meant to cut it to levels resembling those in the Reagan administration.

The Trump admin’s sweeping cuts to disaster management will cost lives in the US, with hollowed-out agencies unable to accurately predict, prepare for or respond to extreme weather events, earthquakes and pandemics, a leading expert has warned.

The death toll from disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes and water pollution will rise in the US unless Trump backtracks on mass layoffs and funding cuts to key agencies.
