Haha this is so funny. College Football has that same charming silliness that we love in minor league baseball. I get why the NFL has to be like the office. But all complementary pageantry surrounding college ball is the best.

Thank you for your bravery as an advocate for honest and accurate science, for your passion to pursue the mission of human health, for your service to the nation, and for being a role model to us all. May HHS and NIH leadership see the light and course correct for the benefit of all Americans 🙏
Trump’s HHS put me on “non-disciplinary” admin leave today. This was retaliation for speaking up. Moves like this are designed to silence us. Let’s not let.

This woman has no soul. I doubt she even has a heart. (Like a physical heart, I am certain she has no metaphorical heart).
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

What we’re learning is that some people are so devoid of values that they’ll justify trafficking and raping children rather than seeing their preferred politician look bad.

This is one of the most egregious statements a woman can say about girls being molested and sexually assaulted. There is no difference as it is all sexual violence. Shame on her as a woman. I true vile pick me.
