We need Dr. Fauci to return, and the current administration should be impeached. However, given the unfair treatment he faced, it's unlikely that Dr. Fauci would come back.
In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.

Hawaii maintains a civil air defense system to alert residents of events like hurricanes and tsunamis. They routinely test it on the 1st of each month. Hearing it at unexpected times can be quite startling!
The tornado alert test siren just went off and it was as comforting as music. I couldn't figure out why I got teary-eyed until I realized it was relief at a functional alarm system, one that's still funded, one that still works, blaring the same way it always does on the first Monday of the month.

It’s interesting that amendments were needed for this, considering the original US Constitution was meant to apply to everyone.
Today in US History: On Feb. 3, 1870, the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, granted black men the right to vote. It was passed by Congress on February 26, 1869. Black Americans were set free by the 13th amendment. The 14th Amendment guaranteed citizenship.

Foxes frolic just like children. I've watched them joyfully play with toys left out in our garden.

I haven't seriously run since I tore my ACL playing soccer 10 years ago at age 40, but it's tempting to get back into it now.
If you too would like to someday be an old man who can run 13.1 miles faster than roughly 2/3 of the other old men attempting it, I wrote a book about it.

I didn't realize it at first, but now I'm not sure why it wasn't predictable. I just hope the stock market has a smooth landing.
I admit I did not have "OpenAI gets Temu'd" as a pale horse but if this is what does it, lol

Just mentioning "1984" isn't enough to capture its full essence.
I'd stupidly assumed that after decades of Hollywood movies we'd all learned to pick up on evil vibes immediately

They are really not hiding the ball here

Better visit the projectile shop before it's removed from blue states.
Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.

ATTN: This is most important court hearing to watch next week. The GOP does not want this case in federal court because they know a federal judge is not likely to toss out 60,000 lawful votes. Their plan is to have the partisan NC state Supreme Court decide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
