Uhhh @FHSUFootball, have you offered to @TraiWoodruff , just an old football alumnus in Shawnee who knows talent when he sees it.

SM Northwest's Trai Woodruff was scary good on Thursday night as he had 6 ... count em' ... 6 rushing TD's 👻👀🦾 Trai also had a sick 2 point conversion as he ran around for 9 seconds before deciding to pass. Video evidence 👇 @coachwebbb | @SMNWFootballBC | @SMNWAthletics

The suspension of @jimmykimmel and the promise to silence other Late Night hosts for criticizing the administration should disturb everyone on the Right, Left, and Center.  It’s wrong and anyone with a conscience knows it’s wrong.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.


why we need animal models - do we sometimes rely too much on mouse models, yes, but can we 100% replace them with chips, organoids, and studies in humans - no

I totally get the sensitivities of the public around the use of animals for research. In fact it is partly why I pivoted careers. HOWEVER the public campaign launched against it by influencers miss very important considerations which are critical for the public to know ⬇️

What doing science in America feels like right now….

Gabrielle Wall from New Zealand has become the fastest person to run 100 metres entirely over LEGO. Her time was 24.75 seconds and had to do the attempt completely barefoot.

The HHS Director introduces the new “visual biopsy”

RFK JR: I’m looking at kids as I walk through the airports today...and I see these kids that are just overburdened with mitochondrial challenges, inflammation—you can tell from their faces, movements, and lack of social connection



I wouldn't say I would do it for free if they were handing out money, but I agree that the lessons I learned playing D2 college football have shaped me more than any other life experience.

As promised, here’s the full video of Thomas Hammock’s impassioned remarks on the state of the transfer portal. Hammock briefly highlighted his own experience as college athlete, saying he considers the lessons he learned in college more valuable than any financial incentive.…



How did you determine that the American public lacks trust in mRNA vaccines?

We must invest in vaccine technologies that work and that Americans trust. At @NIH, under @SecKennedy’s direction, we’re backing whole-virus, inactivated vaccines, including a universal flu shot that could end the need for yearly flu vaccines. Watch more on @Bannons_WarRoom

“The new policy means that the number of grants that can be funded this year will drop dramatically. And that will decimate US biomedical science labs across the country, and set back medical research and cures for disease by years.” “Sources inside NIH say that this rigid and…


How can you say this proves it's food and not activity that impacts the development of obesity based on the observations in this study? Both sides of the energy balance equation are important, and they are linked together. npr.org/2025/07/24/nx-…


they don't go bad so......

Just out of curiosity, no personal reason for this inquiry, how many bottles of whiskey is an appropriate amount of bottles for 1 man, who rarely entertains?

MAHA reflects a real frustration of people on the nutrition-related chronic disease failings of America. But it couldn't be more crystal clear that the administration sees MAHA as a tool to distract and score political points without actually making progress. Asking candy and ice…

The extreme Republican budget hands tax giveaways to billionaires while raising costs for working families. I’m frustrated — and I’m fired up. I’ll keep fighting to protect the health care, food, jobs, and future Kansans deserve.
