No small test dose and waiting to see the patient’s reaction before administering the full dose of anesthesia. The catheter to deliver the anesthesia should have gone about four inches into her lower back. Instead, he kept inserting the line, threading it in and up more than 13 inches. It mixed with her cerebrospinal fluid & stopped her breathing! Black women are nine times more likely to die of pregnancy-related complications.

The House crazies want to steal your Social Security and Medicare and replace it with a 30% sales tax. Just imagine everything costing 30% more....gasoline, food, home energy, medicine, clothing, etc. and you no longer have social security to pay for any of it.

LOL The Republicans still have no healthcare plan! That is if you eliminate drinking bleach and swallowing pig de-wormer.

Time, time and time again, anti-vaxxers and MAGA red hats seem to be endless marks for the most obvious cons.

Anybody surprised SCOTUS failed to bring in law enforcement to investigate the leak of its Dobb's decision last year and claims it cannot identify the "leaker"? I'm sure Alito isn't ;-)

Anyone else sick and tired of hearing trump, his gang of insurrection co-conspirators, and their gaggle of lying lawyers are facing increased legal exposure. Hell, it's been 2 years already and jack shit indictments from Garland's DOJ.

The NFL had been saying the mental decline of the Black players was less than that of the white players because … Black people aren’t as smart to begin with. If Black players didn’t lose as much brainpower as the white guys, then they were paid less — or not at all. The concussion fund has reportedly paid out more than $997 million, and lawyers for the Black players say white players were getting double or triple what Black players have been getting. #RacistNFL
