      Actually, to be fair, "Scientific" American is quoting an article from Nature.

      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Full court press, isn't it?

        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

              No. I know that the Left rigs elections any way they can, including a tidal wave of positive press for their candidate, even from sources like this, that most people would believe to be apolitical.

                1. Her mother was a cancer researcher:

                Health and science have been a part of Harris’s life since an early age: her mother, Shyamala Gopalan, who Harris cites as a major influence, was a leading breast-cancer researcher who died of cancer.

                My grandfathers and my great-grandfather were in the military. That makes me a veteran, I guess.

                1. She promoted diversity in STEM

                Harris co-sponsored efforts to improve the diversity of the science, technology, engineering and medicine (STEM) workforce. She introduced legislation to aid students from underrepresented populations to obtain jobs and work experience in STEM fields. And as a candidate in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020, she proposed a plan to invest $60 billion to fund historically Black universities and bolster Black-owned businesses.

                1. Drug pricing

                The Biden-Harris administration has also made drug pricing a key priority by creating a cap for the price of insulin and by endorsing the use of ‘march-in rights’, in which the government could intervene to set the price of innovations created using public funds.

                1. Abortion

                Harris has been more vocal than Biden on abortion rights. Last December, she launched a nationwide reproductive freedoms tour, in which she became the first US vice-president to ever visit an abortion provider.

                She encouraged people who have no interest in science to seek employment in the sciences.

                Brilliant.

                  OK, weird that you equate "tidal wave of positive press" with "election rigging."
                  What would you like to see done about it? You want more government regulations interfering with how the press and private publishers do their business?
                  You want the Republicans to get better at "election rigging" too?

                            “Nothing” is better than broadcasting or, I dare say, foghorning, the local parish coffee & donut shop gossip across the internet and assume insist that everyone must unreservedly accept and believe it.
