Self unemployed recovering pediatrician and former infantryman. Cycling and photography are my passions
After both of us experiencing great love and great loss, Rosemarie and I exchanged rings and began a new edition of our lives. Our late spouses remain in our hearts. We have chosen to move forward in love with our lives and our happiness.

Routine reminder that no existing religion actually opposes vaccination. “Religious exemptions” are just antivaxx lies.
All of their usual excuses fall apart here. This child had no history of medical problems, & per report no comorbidities were found. She was not malnourished or unhygienic or whatever other ugly things they try to say to justify preventable death.

She would be alive today if she had better parents.

This is the substance of Canadian politics this very minute.. tiny Trump wants to rule Canada. Charlie Angus has our backs. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
This is a no-brainer: a Granny who wants to volunteer at a school lunch program has to get a security clearance.
And yet Pierre Poilievre who lives in a 19-room mansion funded by the taxpayer refuses or can't get a security clearance.
Something stinks here.

Pierre Poilievre will no longer receive security briefing from top spy agency
The Conservative leader has argued that he won't be muzzled by secrecy constraints that accompany security clearances.

What's the chances that the new admin will grant the samerights to women as to men? Will respect the democratic conclusions of 3/4th of the states, respect our constitution?

Addressing the immigration challenges in America, Sen. Langford just said on Meet The Press, 'Let me be clear, if you committed a crime, if you're here illegally, there must be consequences.'

I assume that means all illegal immigrants will be receiving an "unconditional discharge" as a sentence?

A quick note: It is my view that the term “First Felon” should be capitalized both out of respect and because it refers to a very specific individual.
New pod with @gtconway.bsky.social is up. We discuss our first felon president and more.

Thanks to a RARE W from the Supreme Court, by this time tomorrow, the convicted felon will officially be sentenced, and all you jackasses insisting he's not a convicted felon because he wasn't sentenced can officially SUCK IT.

And oh yeah, you can read Jack Smith's report while you suck it.😆
