Kids in Texas died as a direct result of Kristi Noem's negligence. She should be removed from office before her incompetence gets Oregonians killed in a wildfire.
“In the past, FEMA would have swiftly staged these teams…
But officials realized they needed Noem’s approval before sending additional assets. Noem didn’t authorize FEMA’s deployment of Urban Search and Rescue teams until more than 72 hours after the flooding began.”

If Hamas had just killed an Israeli-American there’d be wall to wall coverage in the US media. But Israeli settlers just killed a Palestinian-American so you’ll read about it at Zeteo but not many other places:

An accident is when a puppy piddles on the floor or a toddler drops an ice cream cone.

If a grown man drinks 5 or 6 beers and punches it past another car on the right and winds up hitting and killing two guys riding bikes on a country road that's not an accident.

That's murder.

North Carolina, please remember that the only reason NC State House Republicans have their single vote supermajority is because Tricia Cotham lied to her constituents and flipped parties the first chance she got. If you're in her district, vote for her challenger, Nicole Sidman.
The North Carolina House overrode the Governor’s veto of the bill to criminalize masks.

There is an exemption but it may be too vague to protect mask-wearers from arrest and illness.

Now the bill will go the Senate where Republicans also have a “supermajority.”
