Larry Nassar – doctor of osteopathy (“intravaginal manipulations are an approved osteopathic treatment”)

We probably all heard about the horrific stories related to Larry Nassar who, on January 24, 2018, was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in a state prison in Michigan after pleading guilty to the sexual assault of numerous minors. But few of us, I think, had any idea that they relate to alternative medicine. This […]

Or do you find a Congressman who will believe your drivel and give you some sort of credibility and pour money into his coffer?

If you’re a reasonable person, and you have a lot of money, and you’re worried about autistics, you would be inclined to fund organizations and programs that look to advocate for autistics (and other people with developmental disabilities).
