Re: Rand Paul Investing In Remdesivir. Remind Me Again Why This Is NOT A Scandal?

[TrollBuster9090]

Therapeutic treatments that lessen the severity of COVID-19 are only valuable after you've CAUGHT COVID-19. Masks and vaccines PREVENT you from catching COVID-19.

Based on insider information about an approaching pandemic, Rand Paul (via his wife) invests in a potential COVID-19 treatment (Remdesivir) in February 2020 without disclosing it (contrary to Senate rules), and then spends the next year and a half bashing masks and vaccines. The two things that would make the potential treatment he just invested in less lucrative.

Remind me again why THIS is not the 'conspiracy theory du jour?' Or, at the very least, why this obvious conflict of interest isn't even MENTIONED by the news media every time they show a juicy sound byte of this snake bashing mask and vaccine mandates. Or spraying a fire hose full of bullshit at Anthony Fauci during a congressional hearing?

3. It is a scandal

We need to run a decent candidate against Rand Paul. I fear that the Justice Democrat candidate will lose and lose badly in a race that we could win

4. scientists working for the FDA have been fired for doing the exact same thing

most federal employees who work with contracts, have dealings with government credit cards and fall within a certain salary are mandated to submit an OGE 450 each year. this form lists investments, gifts, etc. several scientists have been caught gaming the system just like Paul and have been fired for it.
