“Ensuring representation for Black voters, they continue, “perpetuates discrimination.” This claim doesn’t actually make sense…the lawyers admit that there is currently racial disharmony and then suggest that the only way to end it is to let white people take representation from Black people.”

Mother Jones @motherjones.com · 1d

The Reconstruction Amendments were adopted to end slavery and provide Black people with equal rights, including the right to vote.

To use those same amendments as weapons of white supremacy today is not just legally incorrect—it is a tragedy.

Voting rights are on the Supreme Court’s chopping block

Tuesday's case pits fanciful claims of racial harmony against the reality of ongoing discrimination.

BTW, this diagnosis was a complete surprise to the treating docs. This patient had CVID and the Pulmonologists' and Radiologist leading ddx was granulomatous and lymphocytic interstitial lung disease (GLILD). They were VERY grateful that we got a definitive dx. Now, I wonder how many cases of GLILD

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

Now we need come up with some rational guidelines for when to send CSF for flow cytometry. Sending every tap is a recipe for disaster. SO MANY possibilities for false-positives and false-negatives, especially when clinical suspicion (pre-test probability) for lymphoma is low. Bayes theorem, etc.

Additionally: those comments-that they’re deplorable and fucking weird-are true. They are fucking weird-like, I’ve never encountered a group of people who are more obsessed with other people’s genitalia in my life, and I have worked with urology!

Elizabeth Spiers @espiers.bsky.social · 10d

One big asymmetry that Dems enable: Republicans attack Dem VOTERS as evil, enemies of the state and now, per Trump, a problem for the military to get rid of. We have one politician who called some of them deplorables and one who said they were weird and people behave as if these are the same

Victor Ray @victorerikray.bsky.social · 10d

The media trots out the "deplorable" comment from a decade ago to castigate the left. Once a week now Trump implies that the military should destroy democrats, and it is just how things are.

terrible things are happening outside. poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. families are torn apart. men, women, and children are separated. children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.
