Good morning, folks. How are you today? We are just fine, thank you. After all, the sun is shining here on the Pharmalot corporate campus, where the official mascots are chasing squirrels and two cups of stimulation are brewing. What will today bring? Hmm... One never knows, but to help you prepare, we have gathered a few interesting tidbits of information. So dig in. And we hope your day goes well...

I agree with Dr. Nicholas's sentiments. I repeatedly reported felonies by FDA officials including Janet Woodcock to the HHS Inspector General's office and they never followed up with me. If they had I would have been able to provide documents that proved felonies had been committed. These documents include e-mails by FDA managers admitting to conspiring to defrauding the government and documents with admissions of racketeering.
The SEC ignoring Harry Markopolos in the Madoff case is the rule not the exception to the rule.

Then send them anonymously to a news organization or the FBI, until you start doing that, I would still say bull.
You have no reason to say bull.
You can provide documents but that doesn't mean that news organizations or the FBI is going to do anything with them.
You just said they proved a felony. I find if hard to believe if it actually proved anything that they would not follow up on it. Making accusations anonymously over the internet does endear trust in anything that you say.
Forgot the snicker at the end.
