My point I suppose was someone in the Obama Holder orbit hired him and it was clearly a bad choice

Kash Patel was an Obama appointee. There are more.

The @gop healthcare plan, we were told, was two weeks from completion in 2017 and in 2025, for the @housegop it's nowhere in sight. Straight up gaslighting as usual.

StevenJenings @sdjenings.bsky.social · 12d

And that's why the @gop tries to shoot them down, defund them, and nullify break through results by attacking upper echelon education and research because who needs stuff like this?

Congratulations to these outstanding folks at @UC schools!

All of them @gop voters and states who are the east likely to suvive a healthcare catastrophe. Nice going #gop, the party of hurting people.

Don't be an idiot. That was exactly the testimony of the primary female witness. See hotel video of him belting and dragging his wife around the lobby. What are you even on about here. Tiene nada, Flaca

You can read here about West Side Story LAOpera's current production . Every performance of this musical is a troubled piece of Ametican nostalgia but here it is with a litle history of how we got there! Thanks for reading.

West Side Story Lives On in American Nostalgia Despite Both Troubled Pasts and Futures

Between 1950 and 1960 nearly five hundred thousand mostly poor, citizen immigrant Puerto Ricans arrived in New York City. They were the victims of the US government’s controlling, deliberate…

Tabuteau is the same as other drug companies & CEOs, holding onto price gauging pattent, driving up costs to desperate users who will languish for 10 years so he can make the big money.This is not healthcare, just more grand scale extortion of the weak again!
Drug company grifting never dies!

Herriot Tabuteau combined his Yale medical degree and two decades in finance to start Axsome Therapeutics. Now the company has three drugs on the market and five more in the pipeline.

It would be impossiblec to get the rest of the world to really understand how petty America is. We're going to sabotage a nation to protect a president and molesting creep who paid $100s of thousands for fking children.

StevenJenings @sdjenings.bsky.social · 26d

Looks like that political violence bill is really working. This is why you don't sign on to those kinds of things because it doesn't really matter to the @housegop side. This is an awful thing to have to work under. It's appalling in every way imaginable.

Millepied’s Hearts and Arrows: Dancing in Reyner Banham’s Missing Ecology

Filmed dance may be the best expression we have of internalizing the complexities movement. In 2016 Benjamin Millepied transformed his stage work, Hearts and Arrows (2014) into a filmed vers…

We will learn finally that being in the grip of #gop conspiracy authoritarianism is the thing giving you autism. No that's not true. It is a genetic condition unrelated to vaccines and pain medication. Just stop the nonsense #RFK #DHHS. You are appalling and your phony science will kill people.

Every measure by @whitehouse designed to weaponize intolerance,screen Americans from foreign interraction, cripple university foreign students, shutter businesses depending on global commerce, infantalize Americans, whiten the nation, and shut down national horizons. It's appalling!

The Texas massacre is ongoing. Follow the flagrant voting rights abuse by #texasgop. All made possible by a non functioning Dept of Justice, the suspension of VRA 1965 section 5, and #GovernorHotWheels

I expect major movement in Texas tomorrow. No one is covering the GOP's redistricting scheme with as much context and analysis as Democracy Docket. Its team of 20 works around the clock to provide you pro-democracy news and information.

The illegal displacement of government workers rolls on unhindered by ethics, and the stink of human rights abuses.
