I can't fault Joe Thompson for stepping down. At the same time, I wonder how much he could have slowed down, softened, dare I say sabotaged? the investigation.

I wonder when insurance companies will stop covering medical expenses for those diseases that are easily prevented by vaccines? Or maybe they will raise premiums on those who choose to deny vaccinations?

Think about it. These children were infants during the thick of the shutdowns. At that age the most important socialization is with parents. Parents were likely home more often than at any other time. When these kids became toddlers, things had opened up more, allowing wider socialization.

Campaign finance reform. Term limits. Get rid of the electoral college. Rank choice voting. Truth in media. That's just to get our government functional. Then we get to tackle race relations, health care, gun control, women's rights, education, environment, income tax reform.

Weren't these the same people who believed the covid vaccine was a vehicle for Bill Gates to implant a microchip in everyone?

As Fox News has shown, optics matter. Every story, every picture, every news clip and sound bite. Everything adds up over time. We need every voice possible to oppose the regime. I'm not in favor of turning anyone away.

You are absolutely right. The fascists have their narrative regardless of flags.
What about the non fascists who are on the fence? What about the fascists who might have some doubts? Are they more likely to be swayed by a Mexican flag or the flag of the United States?

The study, seems to lack a control group. How do we know people eating pizza and drinking beer would have any different results from the vegan and meat eating groups?

How about making an action plan for something like this happening in Minnesota. Something like anyone who disrupts the due process happening in the courthouse will be removed. Evaluate any Warren's. If they are legit, they can still wait until due process has been completed.

Sorry, I see a missed opportunity here. Let ICE interrupt the due process. Demand a warrent. A room full of lawyers and a judge should be able to determine if it is valid. If they don't have a legitimate warrent, have them removed. Forcibly if necessary.

The Constitution needs an update. It needs to be relevant to today's technology, have protections to prevent fascist takeovers, as well as truly address the injustices that have been with us since colonial times. There is no going back. We need a fresh start.

So the regime is defunding tracking of kidnapped Ukrainian children and deleting data that could help find them, as well as deleting data that incriminates Russia. Why am I not surprised?

We need to remember this when this gets sorted out and we draft Constitution 2.0.

Your "yea" votes for several cabinet candidates, particularly Rubio, are evidence of a lack of fighting spirit we so desperately need at this time. I will watch the primaries with keen interest.

Most rational human beings would identify this as "cruel and unusual punishment." Look up the 8th Amendment. That it was done on foreign soil does not absolve those in power in this country of responsibility for this travesty.
