This is an independent body of expert scientists who volunteer their time to review data and provide guidance to Americans on important things like cancer screenings.

Wow!
Holy shit. The Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense just testified that the cost of National Guard deployment is $134 MILLION. $134 MILLION to protect a few square blocks & it’s not even working. Every taxpayer should be outraged this is what they’re spending money on.
