A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading.

This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court.

Defense counsel argued that’s a complete bar to further prosecution

This is what my inbox is like - it's been 10 months since the Trump Regime took power. And the public health people are sending "oh fuck" texts at midnight.
CDC dot gov now saying "[t]he claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim" and "[s]tudies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities."

The sabotage is happening everywhere all at once; a gang of supremacists, so convinced of their own superiority that they never bothered learning much about the sum total of human knowledge, and who now, faced with their own vast ignorance about human progress, have made human progress their enemy.

Ukrainian officials believe the timing of the 'peace plan' proposal, coming right as the Energoatom corruption scandal unfolded, is no coincidence. NBC News reports they see it as Russia trying to exploit what it hopes is a moment of weakened Ukrainian leadership.

$2000 a month or a year will only cover healthcare for the most healthy in society.

It won’t cover disabled or chronically ill people

It won’t cover those in poverty

It won’t cover catastrophic illness

What happens to them?

They die.

This isn’t a healthcare plan. It’s an elimination strategy.

He was found hanging with his hands and feet tied behind him in the “hog tie” position.
