The default assumption must be that Putin and MBS are the US Heads Of State.

Instead of mindlessly watching Fox News, you could learn to read, it is a very useful skill.

"Zuckerberg didn’t donate to Biden’s 2020 campaign, federal campaign finance records show.

He and his wife donated at least $400 million to two nonprofit organizations which distributed grants to state and local governments to help them conduct the 2020 election during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The donations came at a time when election offices were trying to transition to mail voting.

The money helped pay for material and services such as equipment to process mail ballots, protective equipment to curb the spread of the coronavirus, and drive-thru voting locations, The Associated Press reported.

The Center for Tech and Civic Life, a Chicago-based nonprofit, received and distributed the bulk of the money.

The Center for Election Innovation and Research, which is based in Washington, also issued grants."

Not enough oncologists in my country or anywhere in the world.

Medical oncology is definitely not an attractive specialty.

High stress, poor pay, fraught conversations with often aggressive family members.

Would you want to be the person who is being abused by all the commenters here ?

Neither would they.

That is why ROAD ( Radiology, Opthalmology, Anaesthetics and Dermatology) is so popular.

Also why most doctors kids go into non-medical fields.

My colleagues kids are doing hedge funds, big law, M&A and unicorn billion dollar AI startups, not high stress, poor pay medicine.
