this. they are also trying to kill future investment in vaccine research and development by doing this.
This is troubling for multiple reasons, but one big one is companies won’t want to invest in R&D and clinical trials if they don’t think they can get a fair regulatory review—which is at the end of a long and extremely expensive process.

It’s not merely that Trumpism excuses gender violence it’s that men’s violence against women and girls is frequently an expression of Trumpism, and vice versa.

"Medical evacuation flights were forced to divert to Las Cruces. All aviation operations were grounded, including emergency flights.
This was a major and unnecessary disruption. One that has not occurred since 9/11."

I posted this the next day and, well, yeah. Here we are. Another reason to remove Schumer as Minority Leader.
Nothing has changed substantively since Alex Pretti was murdered, but thanks to Chuck Schumer and his media tour telling everyone he successfully struck a deal to "rein in" DHS, millions of normies think everything is okay now.
Dem leadership is still sleepwalking and negotiating against themselves while middle aged working people freezing their asses off on the streets of Minnesota figured this out long ago and aren’t planning on standing down or giving an inch.

They’re still trying to deport Liam Ramos, for god’s sake. They will admit no wrong for executing Renee Good or Alex Pretti. We’re still having to feed and house tens of thousands of families, many legally in the country, because they are unsafe going outside. This has been going on for two months.
