Hi Nigel Farage, why did you try to block EU scrutiny of Russian funding for nationalist and Eurosceptic MEPs?

It still pisses me off that the women at the prison camp with Ghislaine Maxwell, who are in there for far less serious crimes than she is, are scared to speak out about her for fear of punishment or retaliation. The regime protects and reveres pedophiles.

Maxwell, a convicted sex offender connected to Jeffrey Epstein, was moved to a less restrictive federal prison this summer. Congress is investigating allegations of special treatment.

Many tellings of her story imply her only involvement was involuntary and without her permission (via the infamous 'Photo 51').
In fact she was MUCH more involved than this, including absolutely bodying one of Watson and Crick's first models because it was chemically inept.

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.
Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

Watson was one of those overly glorified scientific thugs who said Black people are less intelligent.
I know all about him. I spent years studying Linus Pauling's work.
He and Watson were big DNA rivals, and if it weren't for Pauling, Watson & Crick would have never solved the structure of DNA.
