JACK SMITH: “Trump was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on, and still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol — that’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.”

I’ve said it before. I’ve listen to this over and over again.

From people that can’t climb a flight of stairs anymore.

“They aren’t high risk.”

Because it’s scary to think you are abandoned, an outsider, expendable.

It’s not just the dying that scares people. It’s the dying alone.
Every single person over 50 that I knew at the time bailed on masking immediately.

Every. Single. One.

The high-risk categories also named people with cancer, the immunocompromised, etc…

All of whom were a bit slower to drop masking, but they soon bailed too. (2/7)

NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.

Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

President Trump is delivering on his promise of retribution against Colorado for the state's mail-in ballots and refusal to release his ally Tina Peters from prison.

Victim blaming helps the privileged keep their power.

Got raped? You were asking for it.

Disabled? You didn’t take care of yourself.

Getting deported? Should have followed the process.

Don’t make enough money? Should have made better choices.

Stop blaming the oppressed.

ProPublica spoke to about 150 people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.”

We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words.

I knew we could count on the New York Times to write a normalizing headline about Trump’s fake “pardon” of Colo. voting machine tamperer Tina Peters. The headline makes it seem as if Trump knows it’s only “symbolic”; Trump didn’t say that when he ridiculously claimed a power he doesn’t have. 1/3

What Steve said. There has never been a study in which high-quality, well-fitting masks were actually WORN that did not show a significant impact on disease transmission. Many mask studies failed to take account of post-allocation confounders (non-adherence + non-mask people choosing to mask).
So, to those who say "masks don't work", cite the flawed Cochrane report, insist upon an unfeasible RCT, accuse folks of panic, and undermine public health on social and mainstream media during a flu/RSV epidemic...

Why do people persist in believing that Trump ever thinks ahead about anything
I'm having trouble believing he gave in without a plan for how to forestall at the next defensive point, like releasing only files that don't incriminate him?
