The people protecting the Epstein Pedo’s are now blaming a 12 YEAR OLD GIRL for being Raped by her stepfather & abused by her mother who sided with the rapist. What exactly do they think they’re doing her? They just accidentally revealed who they really are- psychopaths hungry for power:
Unearthed video: Vivek Ramaswamy mocks Amy Acton for being raped by her stepfather and abused by her biological mother, saying she "complains about what someone else did to her"

The GOP chose to lose Ohio. I can’t imagine any candidate, except Vivek, having so few scruples that they pay the woman who facilitated her daughter’s continual rape, to be the face of a campaign ad.
BOMBSHELL: Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton’s own mother urges voters not to vote for her daughter. “My name is Donna Arthur and I’m Amy Acton’s mother. I worked at Children and Family Service Association, building one of the first two sexual abuse programs in America. I love my daughter, but when I saw her lying about her opponent—and it’s not easy for a mother to say this—but Amy has a serious problem. She is a liar. She lies about her past. She says she grew up living in a tent. None of that is true. She’s lied her entire life. My daughter needs help, and she can’t help you if she needs help herself. People can change, but first they have to tell the truth, and my daughter still isn’t doing that. Don’t vote for people who lie. Don’t let her become your governor. If you think she’ll make your life better, you’re fooling yourself. It will only get worse.” That’s one hell of an October surprise.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Acton's mother lost custody of her children after years of documented issues, including time spent living in a tent and a spouse who sexually abused her daughter Amy (Acton). Amy Acton's brother has also confirmed this story. x.com/amyactonoh/sta… wkbn.com/news/local-new… time.com/collections/co… vindyarchives.com/news/2019/aug/… 614now.com/2020/culture/c… actonforgovernor.com/meet-amy/

Flabbergasted that Vivek Ramaswamy, down in the polls and almost certain to lose a state Trump won by +11 points, thought he could clutch victory from the jaws of defeat by getting his opponent’s estranged mother, who stayed with the man who raped her when she was twelve, to badmouth her as a liar in campaign ads just before the election. This is Ramaswamy’s ace in the hole, his Hail Mary. Ramaswamy has no sense for decorum, no theory of mind for the average voter, and it is this total lack of grace and sensitivity that led him to thoughtlessly excoriate American workers as sluggish and replaceable two Christmases ago, thinking it would play well with the base. Other politicians might have contempt for their constituents, but they know not to broadcast this fact, to keep it somewhat under wraps. Ramaswamy still has no idea why he is losing.

How long do COVID mRNA vaccine components really last in the body? A 2026 systematic review on COVID vaccine component persistence doesn’t just restate that spike and mRNA can be detected for months. It grades the evidence and finds most long-term signals come from studies with weak attribution (vaccine vs infection), near-limit detections, small samples, and no functional assays showing the material is still active. The gap between “detectable” and “biologically meaningful” remains large. Full summary: doi.org/10.1186/s43094-026-0… Selem et al., Future J Pharm Sci 2026 @merogenomics

I’m excited about continuous lactate devices for ME/CFS and Long COVID. The community research project that I helped with, #TheAcidTest, found very high lactate in many patients, first thing in the morning, before they even did anything. It’s going to be so interesting to see how that varies over the day and with activity. I think that it will help test for post-exertional malaise, and for the ones who do have it, help people pace activity throughout the day. I did lactate/power testing with Oval using a finger-prick device and it was enlightening.
Another example of continuous lactate data after a high intensity workout. Exploring lactate (metabolic) clearance rates with this type of data. Can you think of any useful applications for measuring real-time lactate clearance rates in health care or sport?

Drug regulation needs to be less strict, not more. The system has stripped patients of the right to try the most promising drug combinations and disguised it as safety. It isn’t safer. They just end up on the unregulated and alternative treatment market instead.

Troll everyone by living your very best life. Literally that is all it takes, by the way - because people will be upset, mad, offended, outraged, and crash out by literal happiness and authenticity. Whatever they hate just do it more more more! Have kids at 60 if you have to.
