I assume Senator Collins is going to be very troubled. Deeply concerned. Worried, even, by the manhandling of a fellow US Senator.

Days like today I miss @ScientistTrump. “The pre-print is abomination and must be rejected by Science” “He got his faculty job and all those grad students because of me”. “He won’t release the Crowther files because he’s in them”. Then I remember he was supposed to disappear Nov 2016
