Putin supposedly has an mRNA vaccine for cancer. Trump is clearing the way to elevate his master on the world stage. I wouldn't take a fucking vaccine from Putin. cnbctv18.com/world/russia-c

Trump demands loyalty to Trump first, truth second As soon as Scientists, doctors, nurses and patients kneel, Trump will restore some of the data and allow some of the science to continue as long as it benefits Trump.

Obvious bullsh*t.

This is untrue. If he was to start a trial next week, that trial has already been funded. You need to delete this.

What is the name of the trial? I am sending an email to our MD Anderson oncologist to verify your story.

Hey Media, the very real consequences of Trump’s misuse of Executive Orders

Lying sack of sh*t

LIAR

This is NOT TRUE … damn liars.

all democrats know how to do is lie and make people's lives worse

1) No it doesn't 2) A clinical trial past the recruitment phase would have been funded LAST YEAR Pretty fucked up to lie about cancer to score cheap political points.

Beyond concerning

Liar. And you set up a gofund me? Wow.. Grifting ass.

is lying! Never trust anyone with the surname Koch.

I was going to say your friend is lying to you, but now I see you are part of their resistance grift.

Liar.

There is no pause in research.

There is no pause on this stop spreading lies

Omg the lies are phenomenal

Trump is Hitler-Putin, now Trump is stopping cancer research … can’t wait to see what other stupid shit you come up with

take issue with the Senate Democrats for stalling on voting for Cabinet Appointments. They had more than 2 months to prepare for them and are committing a dereliction of duty by stalling now.

Blame Biden. If the NIH had not engaged in reckless spending- studying the difference between fish drunk on tequila vs. fish drunk on gin?!?!-this would not have been necessary.

Lying out your ass, as usual.

Way to scare clients away with your psychosis.

Where’s the community note?

Baloney, no on going trials cancelled.

Honest question: why isn’t the cost of clinical trials for a novel medicine/treatment being paid for by the company developing it?

MD Anderson is a joke.

Not 100% True.

Sorry I call BS. If it’s true it’s all for show, which means MDA was putting on a show, which I highly doubt.

Surprising bc normally the funding is all ready secured before the trials begin I thought

Terrible though. There is always a negative to everything. Maybe if he is made aware of it, he will change it. He always was a fan of the right to try

I’ll take shit that didn’t actually happen for $500 Alex

And Eric is grifting off this man’s misfortune

Maybe if the scientific community hadn’t killed a billion people with gain of function you wouldn’t be crying right now.

Your friends trial wouldn't have helped him as the pharmaceutical industry doesn't cure anything.

Everyone is equal now. Congratulations on your accomplishment

You are a liar

You’re being called out for either lying…or not knowing the truth!

Lying?

This is completely false.

This is a lie. If your friend needs funds you should be honest and he should ask the community for help.

I've requested a

on this (click top 3 buttons, choose the request) as I don't believe that's how trials are funded, but would like clarification.

Lying sack of crap

Have you been smoking with Hunter?

Not so. Any moneys already distributed for research will not be withdrawn.

So in 3 days Trump took away your friends hope? You're a fucking retard

This is false

I hate that. I know of other clinical trials have not been shut down and are still running and accepting patients though

Not true

Probably better off tbh

Might not even be temporary at this point.

Not from Trump dumbass. Nice try though.

Are you grifting right now on a lie?! Despicable!

STOP LYING. There is NO PAUSE on research.

Doesn't sound right, Trump is the "right to try" president.

Why doesn't the manufacturer of the treatment also pay for the trial..

How long is the delay?

You're a lying fucking cunt. Fuck you.

He'll be better off idiot.

Liar

Professional liar

This is a lie there is no halt to thst cult ing or research

It is a fundamental principle of biomedical research that your friend cannot know if he was harmed or benefitted by this trial being canceled

Well, that sounds like something specific to the hospital doesn't it?

You’re stupid because we can just use Grok to look into this!

You're lying, but ok

This is all a scam.

You are being community noted because you are LYING

Try Good Samaritan Hospital in Juarez Mexico. They are having good success even with difficult cancers like pancreatic cancer. Just Google it. I know two people who have survived stage 4 cancers. Also Dr Paul Merik’s book Cancer Care outlines the latest and best in alternative

Liar

Ivermectin and Fenbendazole.

Trump would love it if more folks died.

Lying piece of shit!

This dude is flat out lying!

Liar.

Why wouldn't the hospital carry out the treatment?

More fake news.

Tell him to contact

- he'll be fine.

So what are you saying? No president should ever make a decision because someone loses out?

You are lying, that isn't how it works.

This is Eric. He's either misinformed, a liar, or a leftist.

fenben & ivermectin have already been found to treat cancer more effectively then these grifting pharma companies (& I’d wager they knew it for decades) Maybe just get rid of the cancer instead

A political grifter using a cancer patient as a prop up for political theater. This is a perfect example of why the democrats lost. Under every emotional plug there is a grift.
