To show how stupid people can be, we were waiting for luggage in Cairns and an American sat on the belt and accidentally kicked the emergency stop botton. So it stopped.

On this TACO Tuesday, how appropriate that SCROTUS has once again chickened out, and doesn't want to face discovery in his suit against Murdoch and NYT.

It's not Tuesday, but TACO is still true to form. De-minimus, now you see it, now you don't. I guess Epstein is really bothering his conscience. A future seen through bars can be jarring.

Doctors know that the only treatment for measles is prevention. That means get your vaccine now.
‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’
One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

Kennedy claimed that drugs like budesonide and clarithromycin "have been shown very effective" for measles, but doctors say they don't fight the infection itself.

The FBI has arrested a sitting judge for "obstruction". In order to prove that they were obstructed, they will have to produce a warrant for the arrest of the "perp" she assisted. Given all the extra-judicial disappearing that's been happening, I doubt that there was a warrant.

So SCROTUS (aka orange buffoon) has capitulated on tariffs, for now. He melted down the market, showed how dangerous he is to world peace and order, and now expects business people to invest in USA.

SCROTUS (so-called Ruler of the US) is too busy golfing to notice that he has isolated his country, using tariffs. USA stands alone. I feel for all Americans who have such incompetent leadership. Republicans have to remove the threat to your economy, but they are too Craven to act.
