You can’t repeat enough how we eliminated a highly infectious and dangerous disease and Republicans allowed it to come back because they don’t understand science.

‘Based on reasonable suspicion’ is doing some real heavy lifting here and implies that a member of law endorsement’s ‘suspicion’ isn’t just racial profiling.
Homan: "When they say 'stop racial profiling' -- that's just not occurring. ICE will briefly detain and question somebody based on reasonable suspicion. It has nothing to do with racial profiling."

Having encountered the Tosa turkeys a few times I can attest to turkeys being complete assholes.
if someone caught this on video in the 1990s it would be all anyone talked about for weeks. there'd be an SNL sketch about it. that driver would be on talk shows.

NBA doing their only good all-star competition at 430 on a Saturday against the Olympics and I didn’t even know it was happening until it was done.

The other night on Jeopardy, two players were tied going into final. The woman in third made a small wager and her answer was, "I hope they both bet everything." They both did, all three got it wrong, and she won. As if that wasn't already hilarious enough, turns out it was all a master plan!
Okay but she posted on Reddit after the broadcast that she realized partway through Double Jeopardy that this was her only way to win, and started deliberately picking clues/buzzing in to maximize the odds that they would be tied going into Final. Absolute galaxy brain.

I remember learning about the Dark Ages in school and thinking how crazy it was that an entire portion of the world just went completely backwards and I have to say I understand how that happens now.

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...
Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens — NBC News
About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

Didn’t the President just break years of tradition to not invite Democratic governors to the White House?
Vance whines about US Olympic athletes speaking out against the Trump administration:

"When you're representing the country, you're representing Democrats and Republicans. You're there to play a sport...You're not there to pop off about politics"

I think the best way to sum up the current GOP leadership’s stance on medicine is: ‘if you kill the patient, you kill the disease!’
“I am shocked and appalled,” one NCI scientist said. “We are moving funds away from so much promising research in order to do a preclinical study based on nonscientific ideas. It’s absurd.”
Holy shit—a terrible waste of $$

Bhattacharya is so kooky

“If lots of people believe it & it’s moving public health, we as NIH have an obligation, again, to treat it seriously,” Bhattacharya said at a MAHA event

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.
US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.
