Yep, this sort of thing has been going on for a long time. About 15 years ago, I was there when the then head of the physics dept of which I was then an inhabitant told his mates at the lunch table how he'd sent a paper to Nature saying -- oh, I forget exactly what -- the point is that Nature had replied that they liked his data, and would publish them if he reversed his conclusions. Well this gentleman, who was already at the top of his profession and had no particular need of funding, snorted and threw the data in a drawer. But if he'd been a postdoc desperate for his first job -- well, a paper in the then-universally-respected journal Nature may well have been irresistible. It's all very sad, Meryl. Science, as the religion of the modern age, has become just as corrupt and evil as the Church that ran the Spanish Inquisition.

"The FTX scandal involves Democrats sending billions to Ukraine only to have it converted into crypto via FTX and laundered to send back to Democrats to use to seal the midterm elections. So the taxpayers are funding the theft of the democracy by the Democrats in the name of "democracy"!
