Choice of words matter. Saying “allowed” to die sounds like it was the woman’s choice to meet her end. If you instead use “forced” to die, it indicates there is a lack of options on the woman’s part, to save her life.

It’s not conscience, it’s a negotiation tactic. He is telling his colleagues that his vote has a price and they have to make an offer to earn it.

Beware of distractions. She made hundreds of millions in the market dip - she’s not going to be a genuine turncoat. It’s a smoke screen.

Seriously. Not sure Toad is comparable to the first two - they were one-hit wonders, at best.

Right. We live in a globalized economy but I'd guess that most average Americans would be equally surprised by the far-flung geographies where our money has been invested.

If F47 had just an ounce of vision, empathy and compassion in his bones, he would see this as the key to building an honorable legacy. That Nobel Prize he covets? I'd argue this puts it within reach, if he changed course and allowed it to happen. Instead, we'll have death and destruction. Sad.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

please join me in the fight to save our libraries.
EveryLibrary is working hard to save the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), which is the federal agency charged with distributing Congressionally approved funds to state libraries and grant recipients.

Raskin said on live tv that they were in shock and trying to process what was happening. No joke. As if P25 wasn’t published for 2 year. These idiots had time to construct an entire counter-strategy and failed.😣

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

I hate to say it, bc it doesn’t make it right at all. But you are right! Most first responders voted for this, so Mr. Feal can rant all he wants, but he needs to rant at the rank & file who served in lower Manhattan. FAFO

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Do you know who laid the foundation for the FDA?
President Theodore Roosevelt. Do you know why? Because he read a great piece of literature that exposed the mistreatment of immigrant workers and the disgusting, unsanitary practices in meatpacking plants…
The book is called “The Jungle.”
