nbcconnecticut.app.link/qAwZa3Zqm5b #KeffeD trial starts Monday, single charge of murder, as being the one suspected of orchestrating the death of Tupac. Of interest here is that the Shakur family is requesting an active investigation into the possible involvement of Diddy.

Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, charged with organizing the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur, is on trial

Nearly 30 years after his death, Tupac Shakur will be front and center as a man who prosecutors say orchestrated his killing goes to trial.

Let’s level set. MICHIGAN is a must-win if we want to flip the Senate. A word caution: This race was tighter than many predicted. El-Sayed needs Stevens supporters in the general, so it’s not smart strategy to keep them angry. Welcome them. Focus on issues. Time is short, so healing must be quick

#GA Did you know that Jon Ossoff spent years exposing corruption as an investigative journalist? Now in the Senate, he refuses corporate PAC money & is leading the fight to ban stock trading by members of Congress. When you don't take checks from special interests, you're free to work for families.

After the Kansas Supreme Court ruled abortion is legal in the state constitution, the GOP has tried to change the makeup of the court. A measure to directly elect justices, thereby making it about money & partisanship failed yesterday. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

Kansas voters reject GOP-backed measure to directly elect state Supreme Court justices

The Republican-controlled Legislature referred a constitutional amendment to the primary ballot after the state Supreme Court ruled against the party on issues like abortion.

Sadly MI is not calling it yet. With approx. 20k votes left, there's no way all those votes will go to her. Even if she did win at this point, the margin would be so close it would be an automatic recount. Recounts almost never change election results. I am disappointed my state hasn't called it

Abdul El-Sayed wins the Michigan Democratic Senate primary!!! More than 1.2 million ballots cast. Over $60 million in outside spending alone. The most expensive Democratic Senate primary in American history. On to Mike Rogers in November. LFG.

The world of CRISPR is bursting open! Another application for CRISPR- To target mutated proteins that were previously deemed "undruggable" or difficult to target. This has been applied to treat HPV driven head & neck cancers. The goal is to take this to a clinical trial. 🧪 archive.today/n4QAc

Bizarre CRISPR enzyme kills cancer cells by shredding their DNA

Early tests suggest the protein can be aimed at targets with tumour-causing mutations.

Jay Bhattacharya somehow both claims to have “cured” the NIH of DEI while simultaneously building a DEI program to favor underfunded universities. And honestly the mental gymnastics boggles the mind. 🤸 open.substack.com/pub/27unihte...

Bhattacharya claims he’s directing funding to underfunded states, but his policies have the opposite effect

RFK jr overrode the NIH recommendation for NIAID Director to appoint his own preferred candidate (who applied, but NIH declined to interview), per @politico.com. Institute directors have final say on funding decisions and are critical to the integrity of NIH. 🧵 www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

We are dumb. The US withdrew from WHO. DOGE severely downsized a CDC lab that deals with outbreaks like cyclospora. We are in the middle of a cyclospora outbreak, with 11,000 cases in Michigan. Measles hits a 30 yr high. Now this. 🧪 www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/h...

RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

This is why they want "McConnell" to be absent. He is either incapacitated or dead. The Governor of Kentucky is a Democrat and he would appoint a Democrat to the Senate. Which would mean his nomination would not go through.
