Science shouldn’t be political. Researchers need stability to develop the cures and treatments patients rely on. President Trump’s repeated attacks on research funding will lead to fewer scientific breakthroughs happening in America. In San Diego, it means fewer jobs and more economic chaos.

Politics should be scientific, just like life begins at conception. 1. The Developing Human, 12th ed. (2024) — Torchia & Persaud The opening chapter, which carries the same line from recent printings, states: “Human development is a continuous process that begins when an oocyte (ovum) from a female is fertilized by a sperm (spermatozoon) from a male to form a single-celled zygote. … Cell division, cell migration, programmed cell death (apoptosis), differentiation, growth, and cell rearrangement transform the zygote, a highly specialized, totipotent cell, into a multicellular human being.” Additionally, it mentions: “Human development begins at fertilization…” And: “The development of a human from a zygote to birth is divided into two main periods, embryonic and fetal.” The first-week chapter, from the same series, states: “Human development begins at fertilization when a sperm fuses with an oocyte to form a single cell, the zygote. This highly specialized, totipotent cell … marks the beginning of each of us as a unique individual. The zygote … becomes progressively transformed into a multicellular human being…” 2. Before We Are Born, 9th ed. (2016) — still in the current author line; 11th (2024) not page-checked by me yet: “Embryology is concerned with the origin and development of a human being from a zygote to birth.”

Stop lying about President Trump, Peters. You know there is fraud in the way you “fund” science to your friends while scaring people they’ll be dead without your involvement. Trump is doing this, now. Pay attention.

BREAKING: President Trump's speech before the United Nations is one for the ages. My favorite passage? “As President of the most extraordinary nation in history, I have no interest in leaving dangers to grow for another day. I do not believe in letting problems fester; they only become harder to solve. So, while others have talked, I have acted. While others have spoken of peace, I have made peace. While others have ignored threats, I have confronted them. While others have talked of courage, America has shown it. While others have promised strength, I have used it to make America the most powerful country in the world. Working with many nations in this room, we are solving decades of intractable challenges — and we are settling years of unfinished business.” That is why President Trump is special. That is why President Trump deserves our support. That is why the Democrats and their parasitic communist friends must not win in the upcoming mid-term elections... ...not because the Dem/DSA partnership won't act if successful in the election, but rather because they WILL act to destroy America and undermine the principles upon which we declared our independence 250 years ago. Not on Trump's watch. Not on my watch. Get out and vote this November as if your way of life depends upon it...because it does. whitehouse.gov/releases/2026… @realMikeLindell @RealLindellTV
