doctor monica gandhi is one of those researchers. she runs aids research at ucsf. doctor gandhi, you know, trump and musk want to cap the cost of indirect costs, these overheads at 15%. the rest of going going to research, they say. but i'm going to think that the cost of research is the cost of the microscopes and the power for the deep freeze, and the janitor who has to handle the bio waste. could you cut back if you needed to? you know, i think there could be an adjudication of cutting down, but cutting down to 15% is absolutely ridiculous and completely will will cut off research at the knees. so the way indirectt wors is that you get x amount of dollars, say, $100 for research, andhen you get $60 on top of that at ucsf, for example, to run the infrastructure. that infrastructure is exactly what you said. the laboratories, the electricity, the provision of materials to do the research. it's actually part and parcel of doing the research. when you put it in a budget, you need the university to support you as a researcher. and those indirect rates are absolutely

the first african american to ever meet with condi in 1936, so you have that influence, actually gandhi and dr. thurman and dr. king, in terms of understanding nonviolence. >> dr. thurman influenced so many people, he was a mentor for so many people but so many people probably had not known of his influence of many of our activists, they see him as contemplative and some mystic. how would you interpret that? >> i would say that it is true, that is the way a lot of people see him, dr. thurman i think would define himself as a seeker, he was always seeking to understand life more deeply. he was always seeking to try to find more about the common ground of all peoples. so yes, he was a mystic, and he was a mystic who was concerned about the social realities because his understanding of the system was if an encounter with god brings a unity of life not only with yourself but all of creation, therefore when you leave those mystic experiences, you want to see that in the overall society, so if there are institutions that stand against that unity, then you have the responsibility to change tho

in the 1998 case, justice scalia wrote, quote, president nixon, the gandhi of all impounders assertedt his constitutional right to impound appropriated funds was absolutely clear. our decision two years later in trade v. city of new york proved him wrong. in a 2013 case before the d.c. circuit court of appeals, justice kavanaugh recognized that a president sometimes has policy reasons as distinct from constitution reasons for spending less than the fum amount appropriated by congress for a particular project or program. but in these circumstances, got to hear this from justice kavanaugh, in these circumstances, even the president does not have unilateral authority to refuse to spend the funds. this further solidifies the argument that such a power does not exist within our constitutional framework. over and over, courts and legal scholars have been clear, the president has no constitutional impoundment power. and, again, in 1998 in clinton v. new york, the supreme court struck down a law that allowed the president to unilaterally cancel appropriations further reinforcing the principle
