These parents should be charged for manslaughter resulting from child abuse/neglect.
I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

We just had a massive NO KINGS march in October, yet they are all too fucking polite. They are scheduled. They end on time, and people return home.
When 100s of thousands of us stand in the streets and REFUSE TO LEAVE, then we win.

If the Dems vote to reopen government without ACA credit extensions, I will be forced to close my business. I took a chance in 2007, have employed 25 people since then. I cannot gamble that I can increase revenue by the $25k needed to purchase insurance.

Baseball is hope and misery. Intensity so tight it wrings sweat from hands and feet. And it stacks and stacks, the nerves of the 3rd inning exponentially raw by the 9th.
