The number for the United States Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your phone.
This should be a HUGE story.

DEREGULATION KILLS.

The FDA won't protect you from freaking pasta. It's imperative people understand this and protect themselves and their kids. Buy a meat thermometer, make sure everything gets cooked to 165 degrees, every single time.

Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states.

The basic infrastructures that allow women to be participants in public life—birth control & abortion access, no fault divorce, childcare access & affordability, civil rights law in employment and public accommodations, the minimal efforts to mitigate sexual and domestic violence—are all crumbling.

my theory is a lot of people have a diminished sense of smell from repeated Covid infections and they are applying WAY too much perfume / cologne as a result. Was outdoors walking through a college campus recently and had to pull on an N95 mask because the smell of perfume in the outdoor air was OTT

I think this is why Trump is bringing Ben Carson back into the fold. He's gotten what he needs out of RFK Jr politically and the minute he becomes a liability he is toast. Carson is his backup for HHS.

This is very strange, makes me wonder if Kash Patel has adequate experience conducting criminal investigations and the importance of keeping key details close to the vest so you don't tip your hand. He's also on the news today broadcasting what evidence the state of Utah has on the perp. Weird shit.

Lol Trump is TOTALLY gonna make Marco Rubio the Nat Sec Adviser. Interim my ass. He’s already undercut him as Sec of State many times. Witkoff will be nominated as Sec of State, and Rubio will have given up his senior Senate seat for… this.

I called Bill #Cassidy 's office, criticized him for violating TWO oaths (as a physician, as a sen.), and urged him to undo some of the damage by caucusing w/ Ds in order to put the brakes on scump.

Pls urge the handful of semi-sane #GOP sens to do this. Pls ask ev'one you know to make such calls.

I've had to deal with problems with two companies in the past week, and neither one has any option whatsoever to contact a real human via phone, live chat, or email. It is WAY too soon for this. AI is not ready. All they're gonna be left with is customers so pissed off they leave. 👋
