They don t investigate those. but other cases they take seriously, they do investigate. the fact that you brought it whether you re representing a client or are not representing a client, i don t think is material to this. it s especially rich in light of the fact that these investigators at doj who are looking at the russia matter in defense of president trump, in the michael flynn case, dismissed that case because they found that his statements were not material. and you remember that he lied to the fbi about what he said to the russian ambassador during the transition time. if those aren t material, it s really difficult to see how this omission or false statement is in any way material here. barbara, it also strikes me, again, looking at this as a non-lawyer, the statute of limitations is the end of the week. it s a five-year statute of limitations. it appears to expire this weekend. should we read into that? does that suggest anything about the strengths or merits of the ....

Quote, john durham, special counsel appointed by the trump administration to scrutinize the russia investigation, has told the justice department that he will ask a grand jury to indict a prominent cyber security lawyer on a charge of making a false statement to the fbi. any indictment of the lawyer, michael sussman, a former federal prosecutor, now a partner the perkins coie law firm who rented the dnc on issues related to russia s 2016 hacking of the servers, is likely to attract significant political attention. the case centers on the question who his client was when he conveyed certain suspicions about trump and russia to the fbi in september 2016. investigators have examined whether he was secretly working for the clinton campaign, which he denies. his lawyers tell the times, quote, he has committed to climb. any prosecution would be ....

Substantial side effects that can delay bringing forward research that can, in fact, identify a new treatment. how does it cdelay? two ways, if people with alzheimer s think there s already a good treatment they may not volunteer for other studies. new studies that go forward typically take a new drug and compare it to a placebo or enactive drug. in this case, if this is approved, or has been approved, now studies will have to compare to this drug. that can give you a very biased analysis of a new drug. the second problem is not only do we have loss of enthusiasm for potential volunteers for studies, but we may have loss of enthusiasm from the nih and other people who fund this type of research thinking well there s already something there, we don t need to move forward so our momentum could be ....

Benefit to what s called a biomarker. they did not contact us or get our advice for that, and then they went ahead and improved approved the drug this past monday. a biomarker can be useful for determining clinical benefit if it s proven that that measure predicts clinical benefit. in this case there was no evidence for that. i found this decision so egregious that i resigned the day they made that announcement. it s hard to understand, it s hard to really then determine why. not one person on your advisory committee voted yes as you just mentioned to recommend this drug be approved. so how do you explain the fda s decision? has this happened before? well, this is the first time that the fda has overwritten an advisory committee that was nearly unanimous on its ....
