In the same interview, Moraff explained how they discovered Platner: His girlfriend found a video of Platner, so they looked up Platner's FEC data and found that he had donated to Bernie Sanders. And "that was enough information to know that we had the best prospect that we had maybe ever seen."

BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research? RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

Always great to see Sanders legitimize these nutjobs. Oh, she also ties her shoes, let's waste my valuable time asking her questions about that rather than her views of food safety or how much money she's made pushing bogus supplements.

Our lab will be boycotting biotech vendors that have contracts with ICE (e.g., Fisher, Agilent), and telling them why. If you google “vendorname usa spending”, you can see purchases for specific depts including ICE on usaspending.gov. Please talk to your labs and email your vendors!

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings. This can't be "reformed"

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.
