The Department of Education is proposing a definition that could strip nurse practitioners and CRNAs of “professional degree” status.
Chiropractors keep it. Nurses risk losing it. And that change would fall hardest on women in healthcare.
This is political and it is sexist.

The Democrats called out racist shitbags and serial sex offenders.
If you heard those attacks and felt they were calling *you* out personally, then that's entirely on you, champ.
The rest of us white guys didn't hear that. At all.

Dems didn't brand "white dudes" as the "bad guy" as Portnoy suggests. We branded people who support a toxic, hate-filled convicted felon who abuses women and lies constantly about everything as the bad guys, and they just happen to be disproportionately white men.

BRB, gotta go pitch IGN on a few stories, including:
“Why isn’t Pikachu in BLACK PHONE 2?”
“Why isn’t Edward Cullen in SINNERS?”
“Why isn’t Bluey in ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER?”
“Why isn’t Jake Sully in James Gunn’s SUPERMAN?”
Am I doing it right?

I know that having principles is very difficult for most politicians, but this was the easiest hill to die on. Saving the ACA is incredibly popular. There is no excuse for this moral cowardice.
No more donations to any Dem elected official until Schumer is out as leader. They must be punished.

So many people are going to suffer and die due to not being able to afford health insurance in January. Our representatives are mostly rich and have excellent government funded health care so they will never understand choosing between food and medicine.
I no longer believe Democrats even care.

reprehensible to me that regular citizens putting their bodies on the line to protest ICE abductions are showing more courage every day than our elected officials.
Any democratic senator not calling for Schumer to step down is complicit. And we will replace them all with people willing to fight

My latest for @baseballprospectus.com is up, where I tackle the idea that the Dodgers winning will aid the pro-salary cap owners. That concept ignores the reality of MLB owner behavior, which does not need to be tethered to reality in the first place: they will say what they want regardless.
