Is it "controversial" to say that the CIA is a terrorist organization? Stating the obvious is controversial, but the glaring terrorist CIA plots around the world are too conspicuous to not be computed. Such is the depth of their evil that it escapes the slightest scrutiny.

We need masks in healthcare...ALWAYS
Patient came in with sore throat. While waiting for rapid Strep test result we glanced back at the Covid-19 RAT result: positive. Reminder that masking in health care makes sense, if you don’t want everyone in your waiting room to go home sick, your staff to get sick, and physicians to get sick.

Palestine Action hearing.
Our legal arguments focus on the fact that proscribing a direct-action protest group is a disproportionate use of anti-terrorism laws.
This case will have profound implications for how counter terror powers are used against protestors in the future.

I wondered what was going on. I've gained 35 pounds since I got COVID six years ago. I can't exercise anymore, but my diet is as healthy as it ever was. I shouldn't weigh more than I did when I was about to give birth, had toxemia, and had been on bed rest for eight weeks.

I'm really confused. It's the right thing to do, but thus far they've been avoiding any talk about masks. Now, out of the blue, bc of the flu pandemic, they have decided to distribute free masks among the population.
Do they know something we don't, or have they become, suddenly, sensible?
