After seeing the horrible event against the Jewish community in Australia yesterday, it feels like a shitty coincidence that I posted my experience and info about gun control there. The small blessing is that the shooters had access to what appeared to be shot guns minimizing death.

Between 2018-2019, Australia had 92 murder victims of firearms. www.abs.gov.au/statistics/p...
416 people total. 1.7 out if 100,000 people were murdered, of those 0.37 per 100,000 by guns. In the US in 2019, there were over 10,000 murders just by firearm. That’s 3.04 per 100,000. 🧵

When the Miller pair got married I scrambled to understand what type of person would marry Stephen. The info back then was sparse. They are a match made in an untreated sewage tank.

Violent unstable behavior
You said this officer’s behavior was “beneath the men and women of ICE.” 

So why was he reinstated three days later? 

Secretary Noem, I await your response. Your fellow Republicans may not recognize that Congress is a co-equal branch, but I do.

Accountability isn’t optional.

Here's the full story. You met with AI executives, took a robust AI bill, and then watered it down so that it's almost meaningless.

No wonder you won't answer when New York residents call your office. You don't want to hear what we think.

A bill that passed the New York legislature was completely gutted and substituted with language perceived as friendlier to the industry.

Democratic leadership didn’t want to stick their necks out for him. The GOP didn’t want him even referred to as a “Maryland man.” Sen. Chris Van Hollen, his congressional representative fought for him. And we should never forget any of this. apnews.com/article/abre...

Our bad take of the day comes from Mark Cuban.

Medicare already serves every American over 65 and does it fairly well. National healthcare gives bargaining power to the govt.

Cuban knows that European countries do this and pay FAR LESS for the same treatments and have better outcomes.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.

What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?

Who in the USA gov runs the program?

R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?
