Who and why? lol.
And she’s not even there? Just getting sloshed at home?

One of the dumbest things of the Trump era. A total blunder by any measure except for appeasing idiotic maga voters

Also, a lot of the increase in chronic diseases can be explained simply by people now living longer to the point where they die of a chronic condition rather than dying of, say, an infectious disease like the measles in childhood.

But it eventually ran over the child again with the rear wheels, presumably to reduce the child’s mortal pain and suffering?

Increased risk of mortality for trans kids is all good for the “pro life” party

You didn’t dilute it into meaningless both sides droll? Do you even journalism?

Blowing up the Iran nuclear deal was such a terrible strategic blunder, just for a relatively inconsequential domestic partisan win, if it even achieved that for them. So fucking stupid

Yes! The civil rights movement’s most effective moments were often getting the authorities to use force in ways that made them look ridiculous and clearly in the wrong. The treatment that Noem et al just gave Padilla harkens back to that. It will piss people off. Basically just recapped your podcast

Thank god Gavin is back. He is quite good at this game when he decides to play it

I seriously doubt it. I assume “traditional” will be white pop country, and “contemporary” will be anything that comes from Black artists. The differences between classic country and pop country are nothing new. Black artists topping country charts is what has changed

But the people in Bill Cassidy’s office assured me he was working hard behind the scenes to make sure this wouldn’t happen
🤔
Starting to think that him and his office are not actually trustworthy because of a combination of dishonesty and terrible judgement

Both sides were wrong in this.
1) Ms Parks was clearly taking that bus seat to create a scene
2) she was handled too roughly by the police
Why can’t we agree on these things? Not one side is in the right while the other is side acts evilly

Taking away coverage increases costs overall. 1) Providers shift unpaid costs from indigent patients to insured ones. 2) lack of coverage causes people to forego preventative care which ultimately comes back in huge late term costs

One thing that’s easy to forget in our hyper partisan world- a huge part of the design of this country was based on the notion that each branch would stand up for itself against the others

Thank you. A lot of people stand with you against that second rate dog-killer fascist piece of shit

Nobody should be coming here for the World Cup or Olympics. The governing bodies need to realize that the US is not safe for travel

For people who think English should be an enforceable national language, they sure suck at using it. That sentence is fucking nonsense

It seems quite clearly fake to me, especially how the continually cite “perception control” or whatever

Im starting to think that’s what the PTB want to happen to give them more pretext for military intervention and martial law

The family in the car should have phone banked their way out of this or something, according to Tom Nichols

Im in Asheville and saw multiple convoys leaving town, likely from the national guard armory, heading toward DC this morning. Trump denied us FEMA aid but he can afford to haul our national guard to DC for his birthday party I guess

Point of order.. he didn’t sign it but he chose not to veto it (so not a very meaningful distinction.. using Rush logic about choosing not to decide)

If it’s a dumb bill why didn’t he use his power to stop it?

I’d say it’s a matter of political expediency and cowardice than cognitive dissonance. Either way, it should be disqualifying for Cassidy as both a public official and as a doctor
comment in response to

And rather than stand up for the truth and for the health and safety of millions, he’s claiming to reporters that the commitment was to not change “the process” and that firing the entire board does not violate the commitment to “no changes”. Absurd.Via @yasharali.bsky.social @igorbobic.bsky.social

So saying people should “reap the whirlwind” was a criminal violent threat but calling for a sitting governor to be tarred and feathered is cool I suppose?

Love how everyone accepts , even the normally dry as fuck ‘only the facts please’ NYT, that the administration is lying in court and in public about who is in charge of DOGE

This. Newsom is effective at standing up against MAGA when he isn’t busy mysteriously playing nice with them like he has for the past few months leading up to this

I am choosing to believe that’s a big row of the respective squads’ colors-themed porta johns on the far sideline

Beyond that, Cassidy said specially about ACIP that RFK would make no changes.
They are all liars.

He’s lying to you. Here’s what Cassidy said in his floor speech in support of confirming RFK jr specifically about the ACIP:
comment in response to
post
He doesn’t care. He knew and knows who RFK Jr is. He’s had ample time to stand up to RFK and hasn’t. He only cares about mitigating the political fallout, but he must have figured months ago that straight up lying to the American people was easier than standing up to MAGA to protect public health
