-No authorization from Congress

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

If women are underrepresented in STEM, it's at least partly because men like this offer mentoring, then embarrass themselves by assuming their mentees must be into them, then decide the best solution is to cut ties, which sends the signal to other faculty that the mentee must not be good enough.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

One of my earliest moments of radicalization was in 2005 when Larry Summers said that women biologically have less aptitude for science than men. Following that, scores of equally unimpressive people wrote pieces trying to explain or justify his remarks, when they should have called for his removal.

As a surgeon, I guarantee you that if JD had a simple procedure he would be complaining and begging for more pain meds just like all my other 40 something male patients who have never experienced menstrual cramps or labor.
I assume this is mostly about how women are not being Godly if they don’t experience intended pain
JD Vance calls ibuprofen "useless medication" and implies it's not "necessary, safe and effective."
