The former president of Honduras was sentenced to 45 years in prison for importing 500 TONS OF COKE into the US. Trump, who allegedly hates drug traffickers, pardoned him. The reason may have to do with a Thiel-backed, tech-right deregulated zone in Honduras. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

it’s fun watching people see what trans folks have been warning of for years. the media has no capacity to inform about the politicization of health care
News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.
