Call me crazy, but shouldn't cops like the one who got the not guilty verdict in Parkland or other mass shootings be the LOUDEST ones requesting that AR-15s be banned?
I mean, guns that scare the fuck out of cops, get rid of those, right?

So proud to have been with @POTUS at today's Bidenomics speech. Great results for Americans -- and our allies --from him so far and more to come when he is reelected!
@Permacultureandpolitics You’ve just taught me a new word. Edentulous. Living in Alabama for the last 30 years, how did I not know this?! @SecularJeffrey

@Julia_Davis_share has this new story on how Russian State Media is attempting to change the narrative on the mutiny. This immediate change in the story by Russian State media only seems to prove many of Prigozhin’s previous statements so I predict this will turn into yet another unforced error by Putin that will hasten the end of his reign over the Russian empire. https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-kremlin-has-a-batshit-new-pr-position-there-was-no-armed-mutiny?ref=author

Justice Department Moves In To Nab More Private Tapes From Trump Property https://bipartisanreport.com/2023/06/28/justice-department-moves-in-to-nab-more-private-tapes-from-trump-property/

Trump’s excuse that he wasn’t holding classified documents mentioned in the tape and instead “it was bravado” would be more plausible if he likely knew the meaning of the word “bravado.”
@mentallyalex@beige.party I added her to this conversation, so you can click and see. @JRBuckley @sheilasmall

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.
@mentallyalex@beige.party It’s just that every time I use the adjectives dumb or stupid, she reminds me that most of them are definitely not. You should follow her if you don’t already. @JRBuckley @sheilasmall
@mentallyalex@beige.party Ok Alex, why are you letting my mother toot from your account?
Seriously, you’re absolutely spot on. The problem is, there are some extremely smart people in their ranks, who masquerade as fools (take John Kennedy of Louisiana as a prime example), and there are real fools (like Boebert and Greene). What they all have in common, though, is they are greedy, selfish, and evil.

I had my eyes closed as I said the incantation, so I didn't see the occupier of the pentagram arrive.
Only, I had called for a demon, not a cat.
"Are you Yaarrgh, Eater of Toes?" I asked.
The cat yawned.
Two years later, I still don't know if he is a demon.
But I love him anyway.

This is one of the best pieces by this author since her easy-to-read summaries of key COVID research articles from last year:
"Humans invested in public health and sanitation because they got tired of dying from diseases. They dragged their leaders kicking and screaming into public health, after it became painfully clear there was no alternative.
Well, here we are again. It would be nice if we could pay attention to history instead of constantly repeating it."
