silence7@slrpnk.netOPto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer | America’s cancer research system, which has helped save millions of lives, is under threat in one of its most productive moments.15·16 days agoI think that’s a fairly small part of it. There were two big things that happened:
- Scientists were able to show that the HPV vaccine prevents cervical cancer. This gets rid of the treatment/cure payment thing entirely.
- Air pollution turned out to be a lot more harmful than people realized, which means that there’s a much stronger reason to get rid of combustion as a routine thing that happens, and Trump’s bribe-payers would be out a really huge amount of money if that happened.

The number of reported arrests is relatively few, but immigrant rights advocates said the operation appears to mark a shift in ICE tactics. Before this operation, local activists said, agents had been targeted in their tactics, presenting warrants at specific homes or detaining people at immigration court. Stopping people on the street in what appeared to be a fairly random fashion is new, they said.
