What actually happened at the Salt Lake City โ€˜No Kingsโ€™ shooting? One man is dead. Another is in jailโ€”but not the one who fired his gun.

NEW: A protester was shot and killed at the Salt Lake City 'No Kings' march. A man is in police custody, booked on suspicion of murderโ€”but not the one who fired the gun. From video, witnesses and interviews, @schotthappens.com and I tried to piece together what really happened Saturday.

How come itโ€™s always make poor people work for crumbs and never make corporations pay their employees enough money to be able to afford basic life necessitiesโ‰๏ธ

Raise the wage so that any person who works can afford basic life necessities.

Maybe letting someone who is not a doctor or scientist and admits to having โ€œa worm that got into (his) brain and ate a portion of it and then died,โ€ just fire the CDC VACCINE ADVISORY PANEL is not a good idea.

Sounds like the opposite of a good idea to me.

โ€œIt Blows My Mind That Thereโ€™s No Oppositionโ€: When ICE Allies Run Unchallenged - Bolts In a populous city in southeast Virginia, a Republican sheriff who calls himself โ€œDetain โ€™Em Daveโ€ faces a race to the right against a GOP challenger who wants more immigration enforcement.

Sheriffs are hugely important to Trumpโ€™s mass deportation plan. Theyโ€™ve lately been rushing to partner with ICE.

So we really should talk about ways in which Democrats are *not* fighting back against growing sheriff-ICE cooperation.

I have a story out today on this:

The women of No Sex for Fish are survivors โ€” but their survival is precarious A group of women in Kenya rebelled against trading sex for a fisherman's catch to sell. They got their own boats, had success โ€” but in past years have faced floods and now fears about HIV medications.

Hate to be controversial, but if you found a way to get by without working I still think you deserve healthcare.

What if you get TB or Hepatitis? We just let you spread it to insured people because you had no way to get medical treatment?

This is absolutely unacceptable because sick people deserve care.

But more importantly, because healthcare for ALL should be free at the point of service. We are the only โ€œdevelopedโ€ nation that doesnโ€™t provide universal healthcare. Outrageous!
