Pro-democracy, against fascism; equal rights and opportunities for all; we live in community; the U.S. is a world leader in the world community [change "is" to "was"]
My (adult) kids have a rule-no phones in hand when their kids are around. As grandparents, we respect that rule in their home, our home, and when we're out and about with them. We are all better for the habit. Mindless scrolling and gaming are not more important than our kids.

Dino Paul Crocetti, born to an Italian immigrant father, and Francis Sinatra, born to Italian immigrant parents. Both had birthright citizenship. Those guys?

Also, as multiple people have pointed out, the whole analysis ignores the impact of the RW mediasphere. Democrats are *perceived* as "too liberal" because Fox keeps *saying* they're too liberal, & the mainstream goes along. Dems talk affordability; Fox says they only talk about trans people.

Outside of this being an obvious shell game, I really don't get this. Do they think, when I am admitted for sepsis in the middle of the night, I am going to shop around for my Legionnaire's Disease treatment? WTAF?

Went to the USA Team Curling Championships in South Dakota in November just to hear the yelling in person. (We're from San Diego.) First live curling experience. It was amazing.

Another problem, though, is that health insurance companies will jump on this decision to not cover this vaccination. Fewer vaccinations will lead to higher out-of-pocket costs.

Well, in this administration, idiocy is a protected group.

Following this "logic." Trump and the Republicans are working to eliminate food aid to the poor, eliminate the Affordable Care Act, and remove environmental safeties. These actions by Trump and the Republicans will definitely kill American citizens. So...

How shocking it is to find out these are unserious people, not at all bound to serving the needs of the people who chose them as representatives. Shocking, I say.

Also, a list of where people don't want to live, even though jobs are available, vs. where they do want to live?

An awful thought for awful people, but this is one way for the father to get sole custody.

Honestly, I didn't think she was that self-aware.

Looking at the disparity along traditional gender lines makes this much easier to figure out, doesn't it?

maybe not as propulsive, but great NF reads: Isaac's Storm (1900 Galveston hurricane) , The Vortex (1970 Pakistan storm that changed the country), Great Halifax Explosion (largest man-made explosion before atomic bomb), Destiny of the Republic (Pres Garfield), Yellow Bird: Oil, Murder....
