        As someone with #MultipleSclerosis, Rep. Chris Collins and his cohorts can go to hell. Don’t shield yourself from your corruption with a disease that’s incurable. Collins could not live a day of my life. During the campaign, Collins said he was curing #MS w/the immunotherapy drug

        See I just told you what an upstanding guy I am, deflecting charges by telling you I alone took this chance to produce an MS drug trial and you shouldn't blame me for not wanting to lose $700K when I'm worth $600M. Nevermind I got my entire family in trouble too. Sad!
