They say the cover up is always worse.

Ah. Seems to be a bit of a theme at the highest levels of the new administration:

CODIFYING discrimination is NOT a distraction. Sorry, we cannot abide this no matter who makes the argument that it is a "distraction." They will not stop at bathrooms.

“Because of the nature of the allegations, the attending nurse was required to report the visit to law enforcement authorities. The police report described the alleged offense as ‘Rape: Victim unconscious of the nature of the act,’ and recommended [local D.A. review]” www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/u...

Dear Republicans, No one is “teaching” us to fear pregnancy, but maybe, just maybe, you should ask yourselves why we might.

Four of Donald Trump’s nominees are especially dangerous to the security of the United States and to the well-being of its people, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily. “The Senate must turn back these nominations, and do so en bloc.”

Nine out of ten Amazon addictions can prob be traced back to the Scholastic Book Fair.

"Senators also indicated they weren’t planning to cede any of their power over nominees, brushing back Trump on his demand that they allow him to make recess appointments to speed picks into office. 'We want to use the regular process,' said incoming Senate Majority leader John Thune (R-SD)"

"RFK Jr. believes that Fauci and Gates are members of a 'vaccine cartel' trying to kill patients... He argues that this cartel secretly funded doctors to produce fraudulent studies showing that the drugs were ineffective against COVID—and that it did so in order to orchestrate global lockdowns"

“Where do you think I lost my legs? In a bar fight?” Tammy Duckworth on CNN is not having this “no women in combat” thing from Sec of Defense pick and war crimes enthusiast Pete Hegseth
