Only 2% of the water in the world is fresh and Coca Cola, almonds (in California) and data centers are the way you’re going to use it…! Canada has water but not as much as America seems to think. Water should be a nationalized resource. It’s a life imperative…!

Good decision. None of the Five Eyes should be sharing with the Orange Dictator and his Cabinet of goons and criminals.

USS Gerald R Ford’s arrival marks the largest US military presence in the region since the invasion of Panama in 1989
The US navy has announced that the USS Gerald R Ford, regarded as the world’s newest and largest aircraft carrier, has entered the area of responsibility of the US Southern Command, which covers Latin America and the Caribbean.
The deployment of the ship and the strike group it leads – which includes dozens of aircraft and destroyer ships – had been announced nearly three weeks ago, and its arrival marks an escalation in the military buildup between the US and Venezuela. Continue reading...

To me among the most infuriating parts about the healthcare debate and ACA credits is this would not be an issue if we were like every developed country on Earth and GUARANTEED HEALTHCARE AS A HUMAN RIGHT.
We'd pay half per capita what we're paying now, have more coverage, & longer life expectancy.

Besides getting shingles is excruciatingly painful and leaves chronic nerve pain behind for many!
Getting Shingles raises your risk of dementia. Getting it more than once raises it more. Get vaccinated with Shingrix if you can. This applies for anyone who got chickenpox before there were vaccines to prevent it.

Well that’s just dumb.
Chuck Schumer doing what he does best: folding to Trump’s authoritarian regime and failing the American people. You’d think after last week, he’d understand the moment we’re in and the leverage he has. He must be replaced as leader immediately, and the out-of-touch corporate old guard needs to go.
