In a stealth upset, Democrat Eric Gisler flips a GOP-held Georgia House seat spanning parts of Athens and Oconee County. Gisler won 39% of vote last November. He captured 51% tonight to defeat a Republican backed by Gov. Brian Kemp and other GOP leaders.

We reviewed Gregory Bovino and his agents’ tactics in Chicago. From a shooting to Slim Jims, the feds’ poor tactics made for needless safety risks for the public and the officers themselves. “Simply reckless,” former police superintendent said.

The old catchphrase "run the government like a business" has never made sense, definitionally. Most government services are things no business would ever do, because not all human needs can be contorted into a profit-generating activity.

Of all the things, why does this get to me?! You'll never lead Warner worth a flip, with what is clearly not an ounce of insight into the art and power of cinematography. Streaming... yay, I get it. To cite Lawrence here, yeeesh. That movie's majesty can be sampled- not savored- on small screens.

Whose advice should US parents follow since ACIP is no longer legitimate?

My answer is in the article below.

“I would follow the American Academy of Pediatrics advice, as well as the Vaccine Integrity Project…The one group I wouldn’t trust is ACIP”.

US Citizen, with a valid drivers license, is traumatized by ICE at a checkpoint if FL.

Her crime, per ICE — she didn’t roll down her window far enough.

All of this…because they couldn’t be bothered to check her ID.

What are we doing? Why are these gestapo tactics being allowed to continue?

Absolutely unacceptable deranged hate speech. Can you imagine *any world leader on the planet today spewing* such garbage?!

The press needs to call it for what this is — a hateful dementia-ridden man, w/zero filter at this point. He belongs in a care facility, not the WH.
