34. "big pharma's lobbying arm in full gear buying off everyone at FDA? They always did it with Democratic presidents."

They did it under every President, no matter what party.

I think they (and every other "non-tech" corporate entity in the U.S.) are in a "deer-in-headlights" situation, not knowing how to proceed. And this is especially during a time when there are quacks running the health agencies that can make or break their bottom lines in an instant (and they have already had them "broken" with their full-on assault on vaccines - something that they really never wanted to make in the first place as they consider them "loss leaders", although COVID changed their minds - at least for the moment).
