Health is inextricably linked with politics. Democracy requires participation. Not playing Russian Roulette with Covid. Opinions my own. #LongCovid

PSA: 🚨 DO NOT TAKE YOUR MASK OFF INDOORS, even if there is no one else around.🚨

The virus persists in the air for HOURS because #CovidIsAirborne

Only take your mask off outdoors, and preferably use an N95 mask.

This was handed in for a PSYCH CLASS & when the prof said she didn't use empirical sources but rather submitted op-ed she whined about religious liberty + prof got suspended.

I was a *Religious Studies* major; in my time she would have been rightly BBQ'd had she dared to hand in this absolute drek.

I prosecuted international drug traffickers for DOJ.

It takes years of round-the-clock work to put together a case like the successful prosecution of the former president of Honduras.

If I were the prosecutor on that case, I'd be screaming bloody murder to every news outlet. Every damn one.
Trump is killing low level suspected drug traffickers who are not in the U.S. and he's letting a drug cartel mastermind who was convicted by DOJ, and is serving 45 years in the U.S., out of prison.

Money and power have a grip on America's corrupt president.

Trumps entrance to We Are the World, the song produced specifically to raise money to fight famine in Africa, is the biggest middle finger to anyone not in that ballroom — f’ing disgusting.

He cut USAID and burned 500 tons of food. The projected death toll from his cruel policies are unimaginable.
Trump entered the Mar-a-Lago ballroom for his Thanksgiving feast to the song “We Are the World,” a song used to raise money to help starving children.

Trump himself has cut aid to address global famine and has fought for the right to cut food stamps from American families.

As a Canadian/Brit/Australian this story fills me with horror, but not much surprise. In all three countries this family would pay little or nothing. If she’d called an ambulance in British Columbia it might cost $80. Had the hospital ordered it, it would be free. It’s what civilized countries do...

I want to see people like Hegseth and Noem in prison like Bolsinaro is. If these cruel criminal MFs don’t end up behind bars for a LONG time, we are not a nation of laws, but just the playground of oligarchs with elite criminal impunity for them and their lackeys.

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

In my attempt to use up all the 3 lbs of sour cream from Costco, I just made a chocolate pound cake using almost all expired ingredients (the butter *was* in the freezer). The batter tastes great! 🤤

Surprise! The “peace plan” is really just a plan for Trump, Witkoff, Don Junior and their friends to get rich.

Everything is a grift. (And the Hunter hunters are silent)

Another military was known for telling their soldiers to have no mercy and no empathy when killing noncombatants. They famously lost their war. abcnews.go.com/Politics/heg...
Hegseth responds to report that boat survivors were killed as a result of his orders to military
According to The Washington Post, the boat strike initially left two survivors. A second strike was reportedly ordered to comply with Hegseth's directive.

GUARDIAN: “Per head, 🇺🇸 output is six times China’s, and yet, inexplicably, there seem to be more abjectly poor Americans than Chinese. 🇺🇸 inequality is breathtaking… keeps getting worse…”

Wanting to address this isn’t radical.

NOT wanting to is.
