Klawkistocracy

Wilson wants to repeal women's rights to vote--he believes they should submit to their husband, who would vote for the household.

He wants to criminalize LGBTQIA folks. He's a Christian Nationalist. And his churches, of which there are 150, are growing.

Oh, and he is buds with Hegseth.

I cannot unsee its wee tuckus

Starfish butts ftw!

Looking forward to hearing more about the book and getting a copy someday!

HHS ends millions in federal funding for mRNA vaccines The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is winding down its mRNA vaccine development activities under the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), the agency announ…

This is an IMMEDIATE CRISIS, someone must step in and do whatever it takes to get this dangerous lunatic as far away from our healthcare as possible. The thousands of dedicated people still at HHS need to flat out refuse, literally tell this homicidal maniac to FUCK OFF!!

JUST IN: Abbott says he may treat fleeing lawmakers as having “forfeited” their offices and move to replace them. He also suggests they could be subject to felony charges if they accept payments to cover impending fines gov.texas.gov/uploads/file...

Due to Republican-passed legislation from 2023, the TX Dems face a $500/day penalty or even arrest for leaving the state.

They've gone to IL to deny the TX Republicans quorum on a vote that would enact further gerrymandering beneficial to Republicans, giving them up to 5 seats.

Nothing needs to be rigged to make Trump look bad. He does that all on his own.

I trust McEntarfer's work. We've lost another dilligent public servant of integrity.

Seriously!

It's like, we evolved to walk upright on these alien-looking extensions? Was that a good idea?

I'd add: these people detest civil servants, civility, the public, good governance, watchdogs, and people who are loyal to the Constitution and laws of the land.

And pretty much everyone who is not a MAGA-loyalist.

The first 100% effective HIV prevention drug is approved and going global An epidemic that's been sustained for 44 years might finally be quelled, with the milestone approval of the first HIV drug that offers 100% protection with its twice-yearly injections. It's a landmark...

GOOD NEWS: Gilead, an American pharmaceutical company, has waived royalty rights to a medicine that is nearly 100% effective in preventing HIV.

They've made a deal with 6 drug manufacturers to facilitate getting a generic, twice-yearly injection to populations in need.

There are some fairly strong, red-haired arguments for the Weasley parents having a healthy, active sex life (& Mr. Weasley LOVES electric devices); that is probably a more unexplored pairing.

If my long-ago fanfic days serve as any reference.

Barring that, Dumbledore + Snape is a crowd-pleaser.

I can get behind that 👍

You're right -- it's in bad form to lick the 9V batteries.

You're just meant to touch both terminals to your tongue.

What the actual hell was CBP looking for? This suggests a very specific pre-existing investigation that was done in coordination with the FBI to target him in particular.

I think Maxwell, who lied her ass off in trial (& for decades prior), will lie in favor of whatever Trump wants her to say & falsely implicate his political enemies. In return, she will expect her sentence to be commuted & kickbacks. MAGA will happily scapegoat those enemies & declare Trump a victim

And to seek necessary prenatal care, this TN mother-to-be had to drive to Virginia.

The 'pro-life' crowd is pro-forced-birth and not supportive of life, or they would not permit a creepy moral judgment by medical providers to deny care to someone who is trying to care for herself and her fetus!

Brigitte Macron will prevail.

She was born a baby, like everyone else.

Outside hope, though: that the WSJ is utilizing a slow-rolled strategy leading up to more damning evidence that people cannot twist themselves into knots to deny. Small hope, but there is some.

And to see some justice for the victims actually occur against offenders who are still living.
