1/ It was the height of the pandemic, but Phoebe Putney Memorial had good news: At 99 years old, Maude Burke was the oldest COVID-19 patient they were discharging.
In a video, staff waved balloons, celebrating Burke beating the disease.

Imagine being taxed illegally 142billion dollars, and while being taxed illegally, the same person causes other nations to NOT buy our farmers products, and then they use the illegally collected money, to showcase how well we are doing by using (12 billion) of it to bail out the problem he made.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

Put this skeet in the museum. No notes.
I write words. Words are written. Words that form writing. Words to the wise. Word to your mother. Word to your father too. Have you heard? The bird is the word. My word is bond. Bond, James Bond. I, too, was shaken, if not stirred. Shaken by my words. The words I write. Because I write words. Word.
Only 17 pages in and I am winded.
This passage, folks… Don’t ever write like this. Just don’t do it.

It's hard to have weathered a life of hearing conspiracy theories you know can't be true, and are provably wrong, only to live long enough where a true conspiracy occurs, out in the open, for all to see, and you feel crazier and crazier as it worsens day by day by day.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Supreme Court seems likely to expand president's power and back Trump's firing of independent-agency board members.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.
