The cost to renovate Alcatraz could be as high as $350 million to house 300 prisoners.
In 1959, it cost over 3x more to house inmates there vs. another prison...

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.
In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years.

This seems really significant. The Judge will want to know how the error occurred and who fed the lawyers inaccurate information. Government lawyers are trained to make sure their representations to the court on material matters are truthful and accurate. Judge Kelley is unlikely to be pleased.
👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID
1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140.
2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.
