They wrote it down just like he slurred it.

Every ICE thug today gearing up to hunt brown people in the city of New Orleans can eat an entire sack of stale, unsalted dicks. They and the administration they serve are displaying our fallen nation as an ungrateful, soulless shitpile of gutless, frightened race-hate. We are forever shamed.

Pete's so drunk even his nameplate is slurring its words

Admiral Holsey is to this serial murder in the Caribbean as Hugh Thompson was to the butchery at My Lai --
that is to say a great American and a lone, solitary credit to its armed forces in a moment when a great and unremovable stain was put upon the honor of the entire American military.

Your work as keeper of receipts has been invaluable over the years. A prominent institution had named a keynote speaker for their big fundraiser based on a rosy biography. I knew the name immediately, and you had documented all the unsavory things the committee had missed. Change of plans...

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

We are not at war with Venezuela, yet. The boats are civilian craft. The U.S. criminal code does not maintain a death penalty for drug smuggling. Due process is required before conviction or sentence.

All of the 80 people killed thus far are wanton murders slain under illegal orders. All of them.

"He should have been fired after Signalgate, and then every single day after that."

When Biden gave the worst debate performance in history, my job as a neutral reporter was to write about it incessantly until he dropped out. When Trump gave the second worst debate performance in history, against Harris, my job was to lend credence to his claim that immigrants were eating pets.

Trump's MRI raises new questions about Biden's health.

Thank you for showing me the difference over the years. I keep my powder dry for the grifters, and my friends know I'm a safe person to ask when they have real questions.

Or "the developing world".

We need a party bus that stops at used bookstores, funky thrift shops and non-chain cafes.

Opinion | The state of Louisiana owes $172 million to three men who coached or will coach the LSU football team. Here's my scolding op-ed about a blue state's investment in a middle school math tutoring program.

But Patrick it was part of an *executive* physical. You're not having *executive* MRIs.

At the same time as preventative tPA?

One point that may have been lost: I’ve never seen this ad before.

It’s only when I searched for Mexican folk music tonight that YouTube started running it.

Google’s surveillance technology has enabled the government to selectively terrorize specific groups in service of white supremacy.

Dr. Angie Rasmussen breaks down how Vinay Prasad is using VAERS to make bad policy on vaccines. And she reports how an SF group for women protecting each other on dating apps has become the VPAERS, where ladies warn each other about a guy lying about his age and his wife to sleep with younger women.

I'm so sorry to hear your column is ending. You've given great advice from day one, practical and principled.

I felt like I'd "graduated" in 2021 when a vaccine-hesitant autism parent friend asked me which COVID vaccine her kids should get.

A lesson I learned from living among vaccine-hesitant and anti-vax people in Autism Land: it's pointless to make vaccine-hesitant parents feel stupid. The anti-vax people make them feel smart, so that's who they'll listen to. @tarahaelle.bsky.social has been a great model.

British mystery novel scenario unleashed in the real world.

There is no evidence linking COVID-19 vaccines to deaths in children. There is evidence that COVID causes serious harm — including long COVID, MIS-C, cardiac complications & diabetes.

This administration’s actions are dangerous, and the damage to the public and children may be irreversible

The disease enthusiasts now in charge of US public health round it down to zero.

Thank you. You nailed it. I don't see anything he's done to undo the damage he did to his victims. He just sat in timeout and came back trivializing his sex pest predation and career sabotage of his victims.

That turkey looks like the Sahara.

Irresponsible clickbait from the NY Times as this administration takes apart American public health.

RFK Jr. is overhauling the program that helps preserve Americans' access to vaccines A Kennedy adviser said he wants to preserve the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. The health secretary's anti-vaccine allies prefer it collapse.

Even a decade ago I'd have far sooner predicted that the US would succumb to authoritarian rule than that it would become a state where vaccines were unavailable.

But if we don't throw RFK Jr. out on his ass, we're headed there fast.

This should be embarrassing for a high school junior.
