@laralogan The resulting cumulative financial penalties constitute grossly disproportionate punishment. 8th Amendment: A fine can be expressly authorized by law and still be excessive under the Constitution. The nature of the violation, potential harm & proportionality must be assessed.

[The Dot Connector @FrontLineExHero]

@Yodertoter40 The Eighth Amendment does not require a penalty to exceed statutory authority before it can be unconstitutional. A fine can be expressly authorized by law and still be excessive under the Constitution. These fines are excessive, not appropriate and therefore not allowable.

[The Dot Connector @FrontLineExHero]

@Yodertoter40 Even if New York can constitutionally require vaccination for school attendance, that doesn't automatically mean its Health Department can interpret a general $2,000-per-violation statute as authorizing unlimited cumulative daily penalties. That is an 8th Amendment argument!!!

A remarkable new scientific discovery is offering unprecedented hope for those affected by Multiple Sclerosis. Researchers have developed a modified HIV drug called Kamuvudine-9 that shows incredible potential not just in stopping the disease, but in actively reversing its devastating effects.

In Multiple Sclerosis, the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the protective coating around nerve fibers, leading to severe symptoms like vision loss and paralysis. The newly engineered drug works by calming the specific inflammatory response that drives this nerve damage. During recent laboratory trials, Kamuvudine-9 successfully halted the destruction of nerve insulation and significantly lowered key markers of nerve damage in the bloodstream. Most importantly, the treatment actively reversed preexisting paralysis and restored lost vision in animal models.

The path to human treatment looks exceptionally promising. Existing patient data already reveals that individuals taking similar antiviral medications for other conditions have a much lower risk of developing MS and experience fewer disease relapses. By safely targeting the root cause of nerve inflammation, this breakthrough paves a clear and exciting path toward human clinical trials and a potential new era of recovery for patients worldwide.

President Trump was right

Here is Mike Shirkey on camera admitting J6 was a scam

“IT WAS ALL STAGED, Mitch McConnell wanted it to be “a mess” so he could secure a Trump impeachment conviction for Pelosi and Schumer.”

I've been telling my audience for a few months that I monitor and watch the movement of Toyota as a prelude to where the next war will start.

Here is an example of all the Toyota's that I was tracking being sent to the Middle East.

It showed up but in Yemen which was given to the Houthi Resistance or armed tribes and groups.

In this video, there is approximately $65~ million USD worth of Toyota land cruisers shown, in one video. The question remains, where do these groups get this money to purchase these Toyotas? How is Toyota not monitoring its supply chains more strictly? Why is Saudi Arabia and others in the group allowing this to happen?

This is the type of Signal you do not get anywhere else.

I suggest you get a defense lawyer, John. You're gonna need it.

Here are my receipts on you.

All these people are your donors and they are from bodyshops signing away for Green Cards from the biggest visa fraud diploma mill in the United States.

Anthropic’s Head of Personality Alignment, Amanda Askell, argued that discrimination against white students “may be desirable” as a way of correcting historical injustice.

This is coming from one of the most prominent people working on AI alignment.

Let that sink in.

🧬 WHAT IF YOUR OWN FAT COULD HELP FIGHT CANCER?

Scientists have found a surprising way to turn ordinary fat cells into tiny cancer-fighting factories.

Using CRISPR gene editing, researchers modified fat cells so they could continuously produce interleukin-12 (IL-12) — a powerful immune signal that can activate the body's T cells and natural killer cells.

But here’s the clever part: instead of releasing this immune signal throughout the body, the engineered fat cells can be placed near a tumor, where they keep delivering the signal directly where it is needed.
In animal studies, this approach slowed tumor growth, reduced cancer spread, and improved survival when combined with surgery.

The idea is still experimental and has not yet been proven as a cancer treatment in humans. But researchers are exploring whether a patient's own fat tissue could one day be transformed into a personalized living therapy.

Sometimes, the most unexpected weapon against cancer may already be hiding inside the body.

A 42-year-old woman presented with recurrent swelling at the left medial canthus 5 months postexcision of a presumed xanthelasma. The lesion initially suggested dacryocystitis; however, dacryo-computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a patent nasolacrimal system, and inflammation progressed despite administration of corticosteroids and antibiotics (A). Contrast-enhanced CT showed marked preseptal cellulitis without postseptal involvement (B). Skin biopsy revealed granulomatous inflammation with numerous intrahistiocytic amastigotes (Leishman bodies) highlighted by Giemsa and periodic acid-schiff stains (C). Polymerase chain reaction identified Leishmania donovani, a species classically associated with visceral rather than cutaneous leishmaniasis. The patient was treated with liposomal amphotericin B. Periocular cutaneous L. donovani is exceedingly rare and may mimic dacryocystitis.

Chronic ventral or lateral spinal CSF leaks can cause progressive weakness and atrophy of the shoulders and upper extremities. It is often misdiagnosed and can mimic ALS. Early surgical repair is crucial @spinalCSFleak @alsassociation @issclsociety https://t.co/aXkZVBUMl4
