Just because he was a good surgeon doesn't actually make him good at anything else. The weird reverence some people have for him is gross. Oz is a moron in many areas and has 100% been corrupted by money and fame.

if AOC is too right-wing for you to support, you do not believe in electoral politics and should just be honest about that
Someone who won’t vote for AOC because she’s insufficiently left for them is someone whose vote we will never get and they should be treated as such. Also they only exist online

These are efforts to make cures for multiple sclerosis, herpes — affects hundreds of millions in the US alone! — and shingles.
This is mindblowing, amazing stuff.
But these efforts for cures require a predictable regulatory environment, where decisions are made based on science & and pub health.

In terms of what cures are being lost:
- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

As I shot my daughter, I heard a loud “bang” noise that indicated that a bullet came out of the gun that I had pointed at her, wow. Why did liberals do this to me.
Texas: wow, sounds rough, man, sorry that happened to you
Texas: wow, sounds rough, man, sorry that happened to you
A MAGA freak in Texas murdered his own daughter in cold blood after they had an argument about Trump.
A grand jury in the Dallas area then *declined to indict him*, and he has not yet faced charges.
Seems like many Texans believe a man has the right to kill his own child for disobedience.

Can we talk about how batshit crazy it was for Trump to post that China was going to permanently cancel the Stanley Cup if Canada signs a trade deal with them, or do we just assume at this point that he’s completely psychotic?

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

We are going to all have to go to the streets to stop this. I don’t know exactly how it will work. I am almost 70 years old and not very athletic and would not do well in jail. But I fear there is no other choice.
This is terrible. It is also an opportunity for certain journalists to finally speak up with a *fraction* of the courage the people of Minneapolis have shown. It is also instructive that Lemon is Black. Woe/pox etc upon white journalists who don’t freak out about this.

🚨 FOX & MAGA are framing resistance to the ICE surge as a centrally organized and well-funded "insurgency" similar to that faced by US forces in Iraq.
This is DANGEROUS rhetoric, setting the stage for vigilante action and/or a massive federal roundup of activists under the guise of anti-terrorism.

"Point of contact" is a deliberately lawyerly phrasing because Homan's current position is the made-up title of "Border Czar" within the Executive Office of the President, i.e. White House staff. He has no authority to directly run anything under DHS / ICE / CBP.

So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not?
