What I'm really trying to get to is exactly how he's managed to contort the law that Congress passed on a bipartisan basis to get to this outcome which is apparently his desire to strip away $455 billion in COVID relief from the country…
I hope the American people understand that it wasn't that Steve Mnuchin was slighting me. He was slighting them.
I think it is ridiculous that you are playacting to be a lawyer when you have no legal degree.
Exchange-traded funds, for everyone who is watching, are just baskets basically of stocks issued by a variety of companies.

You spent double, more than double, almost triple on stock buybacks over the three-years as you did on R&D.
I would like to hear what you do to deserve $124 million in salary, you and your top five executives, over a three-year period.
Do you know what the price of Revlimid was when it first hit the market in 2005?
Did the drug get substantially more effective in that time? Did cancer patients need fewer pills?
the taxpayers spent $3.3 billion on Revlimid, $3.3 billion--Medicare, $3.3 billion.
you just got better at making money. You just refined your skills at price gouging.
