    SSShhhhhhhhh...... You weren't supposed to know that.... Fact is, racism is part of the democrat DNA. They just package it differently now and it is alive and well. After all, you cannot control a voting base unless you know how to keep them under your iron fisted smokescreen. And that they have done quite well.

    Nobody buys the antisemitism angle. If it's such a priority for you guys and Trump, where's the concern for Shapiro?

    If you have to google that to know what I'm talking about, well that's pretty telling itself.

    Everyone who isn’t an antisemite realizes the antisemite angle.

    Concerning the Shapiro incident, I denounce the attack just like every freedom-loving American does. Have you denounced it? I don’t believe we’ve heard a word from you.

    I wasn’t referring to antisemitism. And I am fully aware of what took place at Shapiro’s home. I find it as disgusting as any of all the other pampered acts of violence that have been taking place over the course of the last decade. I was inferring the filthy racism that exists in DEI programs and the like. The overt finger pointing at others differences. That is the current iteration of racism all packaged up nice and pretty so that it doesn’t appear to be what it is. And I do believe Trump made quite clear that he feels the same.

    Who says we're not concerned about Shapiro? So he's a democrat . . . So what? Some indecent turd tried to burn his house down.

    I despise that turd as much as I do those who barred the exits and torched the police station in Seattle during their hateful summer of love.

    GOOD!

    (and, as usual....do your homework! CR is our friend; however, I note you consider CR an enemy, as you never refer to same in your TADA!-like "here is the proof" so-called referrals you post, in mimicking, by voicing, YOUR drudgery with Life, the Universe and Everything.)

    Ummm, no.

    It makes perfect common sense.

    It's all a matter of perspective, isn't it?

    Why kill animals to discover and approve drugs that kill people? :D:D:D:D:D

    EXACTLY....

    ...BUT (there is always a "But"), it does facilitate expatriate employment of U.S Citizens in non-U.S. territories, that would not have the 'Right Stuff' or Attitude or Pride necessary to be hired by U.S. based entities, in current climate in the USA.

    Hmmmm, that begs the question; is the current climate of POTUS Pride in the USA, and the popularity of MAGA, possibly a reason for the CONUS exit of the distraught 3rd. String U.S. Citizens?

    Might it be that you are brainwashed, and can not understand the obvious?

    Bullcrap again.

    The way I see it, the CDC & FDA get it wrong as much as they get it right.

    The medical industry at large would certainly be more efficient, and probably be no worse off without all of this bureaucracy. I think the only true purpose the FDA serves is to provide medical workers a layer of legal insulation against ambulance-chasers. Evaluate the formulations of the marketplace and offer endorsements to those tested too exhaustively, and some not exhaustively enough, and provide cover to those who lean on those treatments.

    Institute tort reform, and there would be far more medical personnel - general practitioners in particular - rendering patients with needed diagnoses and treatments, better competition yielding far lower medical bills and commensurate lower insurance premiums. There would surely be a few more needle-in-the-haystack misdiagnoses and mistreatments, I'll grant you that, but likely far more diagnoses and treatments overall, and at much lower cost, for what I believe would be a huge net gain.

    Edited . . . to expound upon the point made.

    It's not a matter of bureaucracy, it's a matter of we can't do drug development solely in a computer yet. We're not close to ready, we probably never will be. It's a great tool that has assissted and expedited drug development, but to suggest getting rid of pre-clinical trials at this stage is ascientific madness.

    Your graph indicates the most current (2023) number for Democrats (69) is roughly the same as Republicans in 2016. (67). I am curious as to why the Democrats dropped. And all groups dropped precipitously since February 2021. I wonder what happened.

    Rise in conspiracy theory nonsense and propagation of misinformation.

    Combined with a general misunderstanding of what science is and how it works by a general public that's never really attempted to grapple with that before.

    Further compunded by a war on education lasting at least as long as I've been alive.

    Now pushed to the brink by a mad king style leader who doesn't want to hear anything he doesn't already agree with, and uses his power to punish those he doesn't agree with.
