David Sanders

The difference between a scientist (David Sanders) & a publicist(Spencer Deery)is that a scientist looks at all of the evidence and comes to a conclusion. The goal of a publicist is to convince you of something by persuading you to believe it even if it isn't true. Indiana State Senate District 23

If I'm going to give you $3 million, what would you do with it? If you were the Republican candidates in the #Indiana State Senate District 23 primary, you would spend it on false and vicious attack ads against your opponent.

Protecting personal privacy has been at the core of my public service. I have an established record opposing artificial-intelligence-based mass surveillance and will continue to be a champion for that cause. Please watch the video for more information.

The success of the Stop the Water Steal movement that I founded in preventing the transfer of upon to 100 million gallons of water/day from Wabash River-associated aquifers is inspiring those who are opposed to tax abatements for data centers in Indiana. davidsandersindiana.com

Because of a proposed lawsuit we still don't know who won the Republican primary for Indiana State Senate District 23. But I know who lost.

Expertise in gene therapy and research integrity came together in my participation in the scientific analysis described in this article. www.science.org/content/arti...

“Journals need to take these issues seriously in a timely fashion and address them correctly,” Sanders told us. “There was no need for this long a lapse before the article was retracted.” retractionwatch.com/2026/07/22/j...

Protecting the natural resources of Indiana is essential. When I founded the Stop the Water Steal movement to protect the aquifers that are associated with the Wabash River that was precisely our goal. www.indystar.com/story/news/e...

Should[he]fail to ensure that these publications are corrected/retracted,this would constitute a separate violation of good scientific practice."

Some thoughts on the 250th Anniversary Independence Day. "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Video won't load here. But you can see it here. x.com/DavidSanders...

Jay Bhattacharya,whose proudest achievement as NIHDirector is the elimination of DEI from grants,confused a former Chicago Bulls basketball star(Derrick Rose)with a deceased policeman(David Rose). What does this say about him vis-a-vis African Americans? www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya has made a career about whining over his "victimization" by those who opposed his unfounded herd immunity arguments in the Great Barrington Declaration. Look at the level of vileness from his antivax critics.

Meanwhile over on X from Jay Bhattacharya. www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

Both Republican candidates claimed victory in the Indiana Senate District 23 primary before the final results were known. The vote was extraordinarily close, so there is going to be a recount, and we still don't know who will be declared the winner. But I know who lost. www.aol.com/news/opinion...

"Initial inquiries can be conducted in-house,but once a case proceeds to the investigation stage,to reduce conflicts of interest,the committee should be composed of experts who aren't associated with the institutions of the researchers being investigated. www.timeshighereducation.com/depth/do-we-...

“Retractions are not only for misconduct. Serious errors that undermine the reliability of the data or their interpretation are sufficient reasons for retraction."

In the wake of the 1-year anniversary of the Bethesda Declaration and the pseudodocumentary "Lockdown Dissidents," I thought it was worthwhile to share my recent experience hearing NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya speaking at Purdue University. www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

Here is the statement of @weldeiry.bsky.social . "Covid vaccine mRNA has been reported to persist for up to 706 days." He has no source for that fabrication.

It is @weldeiry.bsky.social who is responsible for the falsehood spoken by Senator Ron Johnson who claimed that the COVID vaccine mRNA persisted in bodies for up to 2 years. There is no evidence for that assertion,which is stated in presentation below without a reference www.cdc.gov/acip/downloa...

I'm racking up the pseudoscientist haters. I have now been threatened by Sabine Hazan! Badge of pride. @thatsregrettab1.bsky.social

According to this article, Indiana is considering sharing individual identifiable patient medical records, "in a quest to research a link between vaccines and autism." I will do everything I can to protect the privacy of Indiana patient medical records. kffhealthnews.org/mental-healt...

I recently had the opportunity to hear Bhattacharya in person during his visit to Purdue University. I expected to endure scientific ignorance, right-wing pandering and claims of victimisation, and I was not disappointed. www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

Did you know we were this-close to having an Ebola vaccine before the orange 🤡 & his cabinet of misfit toys got a hold of our government? 😭 #VaccinesSaveLives #StandUpForScience #ImpeachRFKjr

In podcast Jay Bhattacharya on Faith,Science&Public Health stated,“Smallpox is eradicated IN PART because we have had a great vaccine for it." What does he mean "in part?"Is he denying that smallpox was eradicated solely b/c of vaccination?More pandering. www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

Although some of the recommendations that I made during the 2014 Ebola virus outbreak (I started working on Ebola virus even before 9/11) have been adopted (such as restricinting US Ebola treatment to biocontainment facilities), we are still learning lessons that we should have learned before.

I don't know who won the Indiana Senate District 23 Republican primary, but I know who and what lost. From the Democratic candidate for SD23.

I won my Democratic primary election in the Indiana State Senate District 23 race that is gripping the nation. Please support me, the science candidate. secure.actblue.com/donate/david...

The Indiana Senate District 23 election was featured in the New York Times. I am the Democratic candidate. Photo of a forum from the article. Please consider supporting science and the campaign at secure.actblue.com/donate/david....

Bhattacharya revealed what he modestly refers to as“the second scientific revolution”. What is this momentous event,equivalent of the advances of Vesalius & Copernicus?It’s a button on articles to say when they have been replicated. @314action.bsky.social www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

the objection by scientists & physicians was to the novel and nonsensical definition given to herd immunity (“the point at which the rate of new infections is stable”)& to the suggestion that we could reach herd immunity through natural infection, www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

When Bhattacharya discusses “academic freedom”, he exclusively refers to his own claims of being persecuted... He falsely claimed that the rejection of the [Great Barrington] declaration by the scientific community was an attempt to prevent discussion. www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/nih-...

I will sponsor legislation that creates a nonpartisan state redistricting commission that uses the principles of Equal Population, Compactness and Contiguity, & Respect for Existing Political Subdivisions and Communities of Common Interest. Indiana Senate District 23 www.jconline.com/story/opinio...

I am the only Indiana State District-23 candidate with both experience and independence — I am not a stand-in for either a former governor or a current lieutenant governor. I am the only candidate who respects other people’s family, marriage, and childbearing decisions.

I am the only Indiana Senate-District23 candidate who has a history of working with a broad coalition & achieving results. Empowering the public to express their concerns is democracy in action,& as state senator,I will continue to encourage such mobilization of the community to promote its welfare.

I will continue to oppose the corporate welfare that uses our taxpayer money to bribe companies to site data centers, semiconductor plants, and carbon-dioxide storage in communities that do not want them. I will continue to fight for clean water and against large-scale transfers of water.

I was speaking at a public forum about the Indiana Senate District 23 campaign for which I am the Democratic candidate. The advertisements being run by the Republican candidates are the ugliest side of politics.

I am honored to be in this group. Bringing science into public policy has always been one of my major objectives. I have been an advocate for basic science and vaccines for decades. Please consider supporting my campaign. secure.actblue.com/donate/david...

Sanders supports a nonpartisan redistricting commission,longer voting hours, & broader access to candidate information.“In our current system, voters do not select their Representatives, Representatives select their voters.” www.purdueexponent.org/campus/event...

The number of measles cases in the past year in the United States has surpassed the total number of cases in 2014-2024 including the spike in 2019. It is the largest number of cases in a one-year period since 1991-1992. www.cdc.gov/measles/data...
