To compare the rhetoric presented here — and Comey’s general tenor and tone — to that of the current FBI Director is very much a form of mourning how far we’ve fallen.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.
You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules.
Get your lies straight.

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

Perfection
While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

Oh, great.
These bans were hard won and are backed by lots of science.
PFAS chemicals cause cancer (kidney and testicular) and are linked to pregnancy problems and liver and thyroid disorders. And make vaccines less effective.
They really are trying to kill us. 🧪

Bingo. Trumpcession — pass it on
So many hundreds of thousands of words of ink, so many countless hours wasted, explaining how this man was secretly savvy, and it turns out he’s just dumb as a rock, clueless about basic economics, and driven by a malicious paranoia that conniving foreigners are ripping us off
Trump: "I spoke to a lot of leaders -- European, Asian, from all over the world. They are dying to make a deal, but I said 'we're not gonna have deficits with your country' ... to me a deficit is a loss. We're gonna have surpluses or at worst we're gonna be breaking even."

Lindsey is right that it's important to remember that the bigots trying to take away rights from transgender people are weird losers.

The Urgency of Transgender Advocacy
There is a cabal of creepy little freaks roaming the hallways of our political system right now with the single-minded goal of eradicating transgender, intersex, and non-binary people from the fabric ...

Can’t help shake the sinking feeling that what the universe has in store for us is Donald Trump overseeing another major pandemic response.
Bird flu has been discovered in a batch of raw milk sold in California store refrigerators, state regulators said Sunday. While there have been no reported illnesses in this most recent case, it comes just a few days after a child tested positive for bird flu for the first time in U.S. history.

The H5N1 virus was found in a sample of unpasteurized milk at a store, prompting a recall of one batch. Health agencies have warned against the growing dietary fad.

Still can’t believe this needs to be said but…there are sound public health reasons for legally requiring milk to be pasteurized and they are the same reasons for legally requiring pets to get rabies shots.
And Louis Fucking Pasteur invented BOTH pasteurization (1862) and the rabies vaccine (1882).

TIL that one reason raw milk is having a comeback is a lot of people don't know what pasteurization is. They think it's adding "chemicals" not a rapid heat treatment
