Scientists can find it hard to defend their theories and engage with opposing ideas in good faith, but it's integral to the business of science. cen.acs.org/research-int ... #chemsky

Now Pres Trump seems to be censoring information that may benefit Veterans?

@#3 ... The expression is, "Monkey with a machinegun". ...

I had thought it was, "Monkey with a chain saw."

But, yeah, your version also applies.

"Monkey with a rocket company".:]

How is this much different from the gain of function continuing during the Covid 19 pandemic?

Or how vitamin D helped prevent and treat the infected?

You aren't allowed to know what medical sciences don't want you to.

That has always been the case.

Where is Bellringin' Jeff to remind us how much he's opposed to censorship?

I oppose censorship, CBOB.

You seem to love it.

I do? That's news to me.

You can't possibly be making the case that there's ever been an administration more committed to censorship than the Trump administration.

After a planned 80,000 job cuts to the VA system.

Remember, any time you hear Republicans talking about valuing our vets, they're lying their asses off.

Agent Orange... VA... decades-long cover-up

#11: Cover up is right. Years ago I knew a USN vet whose body was ravaged by the dioxin in his system. After years of denial, he was finally able to get treatment, but his VA facility was 100 miles away, adding to his difficulties. In the first Gulf War, some of my buddies got sick and when they returned home their children were born with defects. I was lucky as I was deployed to a different part of Iraq. That coverup took years to unravel as well.

America is #1 thanks to its Veterans.
