Yeah. They don't want to betray Trump by forcing the vote, but they also don't want the smoke of having voted against it on the record.

That lasted all of 5 minutes, and now she goes to Republican events and plays a celebrity role there and basks in the fame.

I won't post her name, as she has trolls that regularly search it to harass the people who do.

I'm not 100% certain of the circumstances, but I believe her name and the city she lives in were outed on the internet a few years ago. She immediately whined that she was doxxed because people wanted to kill her.

New England minus New Hampshire (I think) and New York created their own compact, as did the West Coast states.

It won't be as good as the CDC, but it will at least be something.

We should be able to easily fathom this, early 2020 wasn't that long ago. And COVID was a pandemic easy mode in some ways.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

It's obviously not Human Trafficking, but that's what they charged Abrego Garcia with in an obvious stretch to try and get him on something, and all he did was give people a ride.

But obstruction? Yeah, they could easily charge that and it's not a stretch.

Obstruction, at the very least. Aiding and Abetting a criminal or criminal suspect.

And I wouldn't put it past Trump's flunkies to try for more, like Human Trafficking.

Of the many things we need to change, the doctor overseeing the president's health needs to be independent from the president and the mental stability, if not the full report released to the public.

Trump, 79, has "cardiac age" of 65-year-old, doctor says

Donald Trump was found to be in "exceptional health" in a medical evaluation, the U.S. president's doctor said in a memo released by the White House on Friday, with his "cardiac age" 14 years younger than in "chronological age."

Shouldn't your headline have included that "Cardiac Age" is not an actual medical term or measurement, but something this doctor just made up?
