this is a very neat way of of a vaccine important also is that a very different ways of that since conley produced so if this is not working for everyone then maybe the other ones are working for those in which this vaccine is not working. maxine's often take upwards of 10 years to be developed yet here we are not even a year into this pandemic what will have what color is will have been caught what will not to be done that usually gets done to get a vaccine this far this fast. yes go with 19 is new but the coronavirus isn't so this is not like we developing a drug care with absolutely no information before so there have been some work before and that was the reason why the companies are able now so fast to actually find a potential solution to produce a vaccine so what we have to follow is really to see what's happening on the population level is that really as a fact that there isn't a trials and or decide the facts are not so are there concerns about potential adverse long term reactions to the. drugs being developed just because. this development process has been so contracted. i thin

for example, just days after pfizer's big announcement, common dreams, journalist, julie conley, reports that mass purchases of the vaccine by the world's richest countries have left more than 85 percent of the global population, namely the world's poorest. without any way to access this vaccination, then there is also the civil liberty issues being brought up surrounding the disbursement of the vaccine and the potential orwellian monitoring of its recipients. like the c.d.c.'s be safe program for essential workers that involves smartphone monitoring, a potential vaccination side effects, or mit's recent development of a new way of transmitting a patient's vaccine history. by get this storing the data in a pattern of dye, invisible to the naked eye. that the that is delivered under the skin at the same time as the vaccine. creepy. yes. but maybe necessary. let the debate begin as we start watching the hawks in a city streets that are so slick. see, see the crisis. release state. see grace. see displaced. systemic dissent says so which so brings up the bill for the watching the ox. i am t

funny or procedures they thought were quite right and when they are in court, judges have looked to conleying they are based on mr. understandings. for example, signatures are verified in the earlier stage of the process, not what the affidavit was referring to. they have not held up in court so far. paul: dan, what about you? do you see enough evidence here, persuasive, that persuades you the election could be overturned? dan: i don't think "the issue is" persuading me that the election could be overturned. the issue is persuading the judges to whom the republicans and presumably rudy giuliani will present their evidence. the question is, how long they want to present the evidence? i also say you have to divide what's going on into two baskets. one is the legal challenge the cases kyle described here. the other is rudy giuliani described this week, which would be a vast complex conspiracy to defraud donald trump of this election. as rudy giuliani described it, he was not run by individual democratic leaders in the state but a centralized plan or conspiracy that was run out of a centralize

very neat way of of a vaccine important also is that there are very different ways of that since conley produced so if this is not working for everyone and maybe the other ones are working for those in which this vaccine is not working. maxine's often take upwards of 10 years to be developed yet here we are not even a year into this pandemic what will have what cause will have been caught what will not have been that usually gets done to get a vaccine this far this fast. yes quick 19 is new but the coronavirus isn't so this is not like we developing a drug there with absolutely no information before so there have been some work before and that was the reason why the companies are able now so fast to actually find a potential solution to produce a vaccine so what we have to follow is really to see what's happening on the population level is it really as a fact that there isn't a trials and or decide the facts are not so are there concerns about potential adverse long term reactions to the coby drugs being developed just because. development process has been so contracted. i think that ev

grandfather died and myrandmother a year later married the other united stes senator from texas tom conley. so he was in the senate until 1952, 52, 54 and interestingan but i heard himpeak on the floor of t senate when i was seven years old and i am sure back in my mind that little dreamas planted and i wonder if i could do that someday so yes, very interesting family background. >>yeah, absolutely. listen, you are part or the part or the chaer of the part of the book that i found most interesting was your relationship with your brother michael and, you know, you talk about his battle with cancer and it clear had an impact on you li and it's such a beatable story of love and of brotherly love andou and your other brother. >> yeah, dennis. >> in the night,n the floor as he was suffering with this dreaded disease. could you sha some insights into that? >> again, it tru was one of those events that takes placen a persons life and changes who they are and what they end up doing with their life. i can remember, i remember one conversation with mike ando remember the movie, john denver playedhe

if i could say a few quick words about the book that ted conley mentioned, the book is not all about presidential power. in several instances we argued for enhancing the power of the attorney general and ultimately the president. two examples are, we think the mueller investigation showed that attorney general barr did not have adequate control of legal interpretations for the executive branch, that the regulations were not adequately clear on that, and that needs to be clarified. we also think it was a huge mistake, that it wasn't clear in justice department policies that the attorney general has to make the hard call, not the fbi director. and a whole slew of things, criminal opening up investigations for the president. in some issues, there's been a 50 year consensus that certain things like conflicts of interest, corruption, text disclosure, these were things conservatives were always in favor of, but assistant attorney general's glia said that even though at the time the conflict of interest statutes didn't apply to the president, of course every president would want to comply w

conley, you are now recognized. rep. connolly: thank you, madam chairwoman. trudeau, when you acquired -- was the onlythat product they had, virtually. rep. connolly: my understanding is when it first came to the market, one file cost $40. thehe time you acquired company, that price had gone up to almost 31,000, is that correct? mr. trudeau: that is correct. to $31,000 for the same vial. my understanding is the only difference was not the composition of the drug, it was the legal status of the drug able to getore was it granted orphan drug status before you purchased it, is that correct? is not the: that only thing, but certainly it is something that did occur. connolly: well, should we not coordinate the two events question mark how do we explain going from $40 to $31,000 for the same vial with the same efficacy and impact on patients, get scott reclassified as an orphan drug, which gave it a monopoly for that designated use, correct? mr. trudeau: it did get an orphan drug designation. in addition, the label was updated in 2010. rep. connolly: right, so, the
