“But Students for Life -- a group that has frequently distinguished itself as the least compromising…”
Which isn’t run by students, but by an woman who makes a cool quarter million off a non-profit using student labor…
“… advancing the dubious idea that abortion pills are polluting the U.S. water supply.”
Actually, there is MORE evidence that runoff from animal vax and hormones are poisoning the water supply. But that doesn’t seem to hold sway.

Is there any reason Silver is to be assumed competent? He’s miscalled two high stakes elections involving Trump. Now he thinks Biden is incompetent despite Nate still having a job.
Despite on of the best NON-BUBBLE economies in my lifetime (and his).
He really should stick to sports.

“Matt Gaetz, Pete Hegseth and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. face questions about their personal actions as well as their professional qualifications ahead of the Senate confirmation process.”
Kennedy Jr we knew about because of his “I’m not a choirboy” comment: as if that made shit better! 🤮
JFC these guys should be in prison.
You want to know what Trump plans for us?
Look at these peoples history.
Okay, this GOP dude keeps texting me as “David” (I’ve also been texted as Kory). I’ve no clue where they get my number.
So I sent him a response today:
Chad,
Now RFK Jr is lying about being a sexual predator. We know he lies because AP did a story about his lies.
Kennedy HIMSELF admitted to his sexual misconduct:

So, is the Republican Party, the Law and Order Party, now the Sexual Abuse of Women Party?
My god, have we no decency?!?
My sister won’t change. She is just very unhappy (she’s married to a Republican who thinks Republicans are right no matter what… he’s incredibly dumb).
Mom is smart, and I’m hoping she realizes that my sister is feeding her a narrative that is internally inconsistent. But my father is t doing well and she is emotionally and physically exhausted.
It’s just very frustrating.
I want to see Mom, but not at the expense of my own well being (yes, my sister is THAT exhausting).
So, of course, I’ve been obsessing over it all day.
I’m not mad at Mom, my sister lives in the same town and my sister is manipulative as fuck—for example she told my parent there were no Indian restaurants in the town then there are several… in fact we visited with food we bought in town! My sister REGULARLY gaslights but I avoid bring in it up.
Sorry, I just have to vent. There is no solution here. I have attempted to keep communication open with Mom. I’m not angry with her, just saddened.
Well, Mom and I had a fight. It involves my sister who I don’t want to be around because she constantly lies (her son got a medical degree so she now thinks she is a doctor—🙄). For several years Partner and I visited on a different day. Was cool. Now, for some reason, Mom decided there was no friction.
I’m doing my best by offering to bring supper, etc. I just want to be able to talk to my parents (sister makes sure it’s all about her—or something that excludes Partner, “Remember when…”) UGH!
Reactive instead of proactive. Weak sauce.

Microsoft's Copilot has been doing an AI version of this behavior, which has unnerved corporate customers so much that some have delayed deploying the product, as… Microsoft released new tools and a guide to help customers mitigate a Copilot security issue that inadvertently let employees access sensitive information, such as CEO emails and HR documents.”

Matt Gaetz used to walk around the cloakroom showing people porno of him and his latest girlfriend,” one former Republican lawmaker told me. “He’d show me a video, and I’d say, ‘That’s great, Matt.’ Like, what kind of a reaction do you want?” (The video, according to the former lawmaker, showed the hula-hooping woman.) https://theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/04/matt-gaetz-house-republican-congress-profile/677915/
What next? Whites only drinking fountains?
"We're not anti-anyone. We're pro-woman. I think it's an important policy for us to continue. It's always been, I guess, an unwritten policy, but now it's in writing,"
I’m sure racists said that as well.

Oh, look who said AIDS is caused by a “gay lifestyle” and not HIV?

“BlackRock, the world’s biggest asset management company, faces a complaint at the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) for allegedly contributing to environmental and human rights abuses around the world through its investments in agribusiness.”
We will have a dead planet, but at least we will be able to retire. 🤦🏻♀️

“The legislation comes after the lawmaker who wrote one of Texas’ recent abortion bans wrote an op-ed in the Houston Chronicle defending the current exceptions as ‘plenty clear.’”
Yes, it’s clear they want to kill women. The law is written that you MUST be on the edge of death (“to save the life” clause)—it does not allow an abortion UNLESS it’s to save your life. Not potentially, NOW. Otherwise it is a crime.
