Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise."
Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically *why* vaccine trials don't use placebo arms.
Ethical violation as POLICY.

No due process means he decides your guilt or innocence. Not the courts. Not a judge or a jury.
No longer will you be deemed innocent until PROVEN guilty.
You’ll be declared guilty and snatched off the streets with no recourse.
Is the wisdom of the Constitution kicking in yet?

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”
This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.
He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.
