Another chemical that I know too much about from my Environmental Toxicologist son. He reviewed EPA policies before his job was eliminated last year.

I’m sorry your son lost his job. We’ve lost so many good people to Trump’s destruction of our government.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:

Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

Federal Judge John Coughenour, a Ronald Reagan appointee, says he’s received dozens, if not hundreds, of death threats after he blocked President Trump’s bid to end birthright citizenship last year.

You can be sure that’s been condoned by the occupant.

I stopped gambling (mostly) last year and the way the books hound you with notifications/emails to Get Back In The Game should 100% be illegal
like if Coors could text drinkers "15 days since your last beer ... sounds like you need an ice cold Coors Light" and also their phone could give them a beer

Immediately disqualifying for the job for which he has been nominated. The 4th Amendment specifies it’s “the right of the people,” not of citizens.

We cannot allow someone who doesn’t understand the 4th Amendment to be the head of DHS.

GOP Sen. Cornyn: I don't understand how the SAVE Act could disenfranchise millions of Americans.

Sen. Durbin: You have to present identification, but your drivers license is not acceptable. 50% of Americans do not have a passport. Those who want to obtain it so they can vote will pay $186

Hey MAGA trolls and bots - Sen. DURBIN schools Sen. CORNYN here on how the SAVE Act disenfranchise voters. It is really simple. And it is a de facto poll tax.

Call your Senators today at 202-224-3121 and tell them to block the SAVE Act!

This DOGE boy dissolved my Fort Negley grants, taking money earmarked for descendant-led archaeology and oral history collection because he was given power that indulged the fact that he is too arrogant to see the value in the histories of Black Tennesseans and how they have shaped ALL of the US.

This is Danny Bones

At first he seems like a working-class British rapper on the rise

‘Danny’ sings about a broken Britain and immigrants

His voice sounds human enough – but he is not real

He is an AI-generated nationalist whose creators were paid by the far-right party, Advance UK

it just feels so horrible
we feel powerless
we've tried fighting, 
we've tried surrendering
we've tried ignoring
we've tried building
israel doesn't let you exist
that's it, our choice is fast death 
or faster death

From a friend in Beirut this morning, who in the last few days has seen several Israel missile strikes within walking distance of their home.

'This place broke something in us': Kids languish in ICE detention long past 20-day court limit The Trump administration has detained more than 900 children — including a boy with severe autism — for longer than allowed under a decades-old legal settlement.

ICE detained a 9-year-old with severe autism and his mom for more than 80 days.

The boy depends on daily therapy, but at Dilley, those supports vanished.

Unable to understand why they couldn’t go home, he would cry through the night and hit himself, his mother told me.

“Satire” in red at the top followed by
“Women with invisible illness accidentally looks too happy in public, loses credibility” as a headline above a picture of a professionally dressed woman smiling on a cell phone in front of an office building.

Labeled “Satire”

But more like real life.

I can look like this walking into a place and use a cane to lie in the backseat of my car on the way out.

One infection = dynamically disabled for 5 years.

Stop the stigma of chronic illness.

Understanding Long COVID, Supporting Patients, Advancing SolutionsWhat Is Long COVID? Long COVID is a serious chronic disease that can affect multiple body systems and significantly disrupt daily life. Long COVID affects 5–7 % of U.S. adults—roughly 18 million people, according to the CDC. Long COVID remains an ongoing public health challenge requiring continued research, clinical innovation, and coordinated response.

RFK Jr and HHS have launched a new website dedicated to Long COVID.

Please remain skeptical: They will offer more junk science than real solutions, and use this as another opportunity to spread misinformation about vaccines.
