None. They broke no law at all. Neither did AP reporters who asked Trump questions and got ejected from his press conference. The call was for medical research/care. Doctors need to stand up as do the rest of us. Please do your best to publicize this outrage. It has legs...

Please expand on this. We need to know. So many people with diabetes want decent science and know their lives depend on it.

PLEASE KEEP UP THE DRUMBEAT ON THIS. US Medicine is being gutted. There are LOTS of people with diabetes in Red States and they desperately need research. Will you please see if you can get Rachel Maddow to cover this. VERY IMPORTANT. The brave doctors who stood up need us to echo their call.

You said it. The other presenters tomorrow need to speak up. Remember what happened when AP was kicked out of Trump's press conference and the other journalists did not speak up? No one at that meeting should feel comfortable being passive. Enough is enough!
