Good news, for once, in a long fight to preserve #HIVfunding!
The FY2026 Conference bill - aka the final negotiated bill that passed both chambers and was signed into law - preserves the majority of HIV prevention & treatment funding, ignoring the cuts that the President and the House proposed.

Birds near US military bases have higher levels of PFAS, study finds.
One expert told Newsweek that while the findings are "not surprising," the scope and scale of these chemicals is "concerning."

The plane being a White Elephant gift is the funniest turn this saga could have taken
Forbes: The Qataris have been trying to get rid of that ostentatious luxury jet for five years, but no one would buy it. It costs too much to fly, costs more to maintain, and needs too big a landing strip. They had another one they unloaded on Turkey.
Delicious.
