Oh, damn. You're right! Well, like you said, no Ford images either.
I kept one of his 1974 WIN buttons for a while.

I'm going to wear it today in Hillsborough. Unless the Trump FBI has been monitoring this board and tapping my phone, then it sounds like I should be safe.

I remember those. "Whip Inflation Now!". Didn't work out so well. I do think that of all the GOP Presidents since Eisenhower that Ford was probably the most decent as a person and the most moderate politically. Not that he was a great president by any means, but at least wasn't as extreme and reactionary in his economic and/or foreign policies as Reagan, the two Bushes, and Dear Leader, and he wasn't a twisted, scheming, criminal like Nixon or batshit crazy like Trump. I remember Ford once said something like "I am disgustingly sane." What I wouldn't give to replace Trump with Ford right now.

And both attempts were by women, and one of them was a cult follower of Charles Manson, I do believe.

Someone should tell Trump he's the King of the United States and doesn't have to listen to anyone.
Trump Administration Retreats on Effort to Slash NIH Grant Indirect Costs
The Trump administration has effectively surrendered in its current legal fight to slash indirect costs that awarded institutions receive as an embedded component of National Institutes of Health (NIH) grants. The administration failed to meet the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) April 6, 2026, deadline to petition the Supreme Court to review the First Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling that blocks NIH from implementing a 15% cap on indirect cost rates (ICR) for extramural research. The failure of DOJ to appeal the ruling leaves the court’s original injunction in permanent effect.
This development marks an end to a litigation effort beginning in February 2025 by states and a coalition of health associations to protect their individually negotiated ICRs with NIH. The lawsuits argued that the policy violated appropriations law, as Congress has placed a prohibition on NIH from unilaterally changing negotiated ICRs since fiscal year 2018 (FY18), when the first Trump administration attempted to set an ICR cap at 10 percent.
