And relieving the service JAGs was a necessary preliminary step.
Through 26 years on AD, I never felt compelled to question orders, nor were any that I issued ever challenged. That thought is front of mind of many I’ve spoken with over the past several months. Bad sh*t is coming to the U.S.

Dr. Daskinakis’ letter underscores the cavalier approach to public health policy decision-making and the long term, potentially catastrophic consequences that will cascade from these actions. This is truly anti-Darwinian.
This sentence stood out, among many that were sadly accurate.

He “proudly” proclaims he’s LDS in his profile. Can he can point to any verse in either of these books where Jesus endorses the inhumane treatment of immigrants (documented or not) or people who are *different?*

Just south of you here in AR, rural health (clinics & small hospitals) are the only healthcare for 60+ miles for a large portion of the population. They’ll cutback services or shutter altogether under this Medicaid cutting scheme. People will suffer & die. Same is true in MO. I recall Rep Grayson:

I’ve read the exchange several times. Your comments were tempered, while the others’ comments were more heated. You probably weren’t able to see the comment that accompanied the block. Here it is.
