Time to post this for the hundredth time: one of the Koch Bros ran for VP on the Libertarian ticket in 1980. He lost because...read it. So they learned and spent billions over 40 years, creating hundreds of non-profits, economic schools, & brainwashing GOP with Tea Party BS, leading to DUMP.

This is totally fair and just:
Negotiating memo to Putin:
Withdraw to 2011 borders, remove land mines, pay reparations, reduce size of military, repair Chernobyl sarcophagus, return abducted children, apologize to everyone for the inconvenience (and rape/torture/murder), resign, surrender to Int'l Court of Justice.
The end.

As a former RN of 25 years I can’t agree with you more. In a million years I’d never have imagine an anti-vaxxer being put in charge of health and human services. And ironically he is neither healthy or human.

Dr. Worm Brain has already said it out loud: let nature take its course. I.e., kill off the weaklings, aka the Poors. That's the billionaires' goal. They consider it "survival of the fittest" and that includes being born rich and bulldozing their way to raping children for fun and power.
In a regime full of lunatics, RFKjr’s single focus of destroying America’s vaccine infrastructure ranks him as a true madman. Vaccines save lives. RFKjr is out to kill as many people as possible. He is very sick and deranged.

Rob Reiner was a director, producer, screenwriter, and political activist who met his wife, Michele, on set of When Harry Met Sally while she was doing photography. Reiner changed the movie from a sad ending to a happy one as he began to fall in love with Michele.

This: we owe this family this much.
People, please stop jumping to conclusions on the Rob Reiner investigation. Remember when Gene Hackman died and they ended up being natural/accidental deaths?
They havent even finished processing the crime scene.

Couldn't pick a favorite Rob Reiner film if I tried. They were all masterpieces. In a variety of genres.

Rob Reiner stood up to the White, Racist, Narcossitic, Evangelical, Misogynistic, Uneducated, Insecure, Neanderthal Men in America. Rob championed our true Democracy, and fair US elections. He taught us about love, kindness, and brilliantly wrote our human connections. Were gonna grieve deeply Rob.

On a personal note.
I knew Rob Reiner & his lovely wife Michelle. One of my happiest memories was chatting with them in their kitchen, making sandwiches talking politics, and movies.
They were kind people. Extraordinarily normal and very, very kind.
I love & miss them already.
Life is short.

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Zelenskyy urges Americans not to believe Russian claims about Ukrainian territories, citing his visit to Kupyansk to debunk disinformation. He calls for a ceasefire where both sides hold positions and seeks a fair, diplomatic resolution. Rejects U.S. compromise suggesting only Ukrainian withdrawal.
