I took a deep dive into files that ransomware hackers leaked from the Minneapolis School District. It's so much worse than just SSNs and home addresses. It's psych evals, writeups of physical and sexual abuse. Always with the child's name, testimony.

When the @gop demands spending cuts to raise the debt ceiling (pay our credit card bill) just remember:

1. Trump raised the the debt ceiling 3x without cutting spending.

2. That’s never happened under any Republican POTUS.

3. The deficit increased each year under Trump & has fallen each year under Biden.

It is no longer safe for my children to visit Florida.

I don't know if they will ever again get to be in the same room as their Florida-based family members who can't travel.

Because SB 254 was certified by the FL Senate today, and it will be effective immediately on being signed into law.

This law not only prohibits transgender minors from receiving age-appropriate gender-affirming care, but it also gives the state of Florida to take "emergency custody" of ANY CHILD PRESENT IN THE STATE who they deem at risk of receiving gender-affirming care or of being in a home where someone else is.

Any child.

Not just a resident.

Any child physically present in the state can be legally kidnapped by the State of Florida to "protect" them from receiving life-saving gender-affirming medical services or from having a parent or sibling who receives such care.

For my family, we're the lucky ones.

Pope Francis will allow women to vote for the first time at a Vatican meeting of bishops, an important step toward giving them more say in church affairs

When the nomadic Hebrew goat herders ran into the Babylonian civilization, they plagiarized a Reader's Digest version of the Code of Hammurabi and called it the X Commandments,
six of which are unconstitutional:
Worship only Yahweh.
No work (or play for that matter) on the sabbath.
Honor your parents even if they belong in prison.
No graven images.
No using Yahweh's name in vain, goddamn it.
No coveting your neighbor's wife or stuff, the basis of capitalism itself.

For years, my solution to the Middle East is to boycott it. We;d have PLENTY of oil if we weren't so mindlessly profligate with what we pump, so no more oil imports - not from ANYWHERE, actually. Or exports! Send Middle Eastern countries no more weapons or money, period. Then let all the religious crazies kill each other off until there's nothing left but sensible atheists - and peace will return to the Holy Land. 8^)

Mike Pompeo is a Second Coming whacko, and was instrumental (Secretary of State, remember?) in moving the capital of Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, another pre-requisite for Jesus to come back and kill everybody except good Xians like Pompeo. Not sure what's supposed to happen to all those Jews. Can't remember. Does Jesus kill all of them too? Do they get beamed up along with the 144K Xians? Or are some of the 144K Jews? Prymatt Conehead doesn't think 144K will survive.

All my Jewish friends in both high school, college, the military and at work were actually atheists, or at least agnostics. A couple of them thought that an American or European Jew moving to live on a Kibbutz built on some Palestinian olive grower's orchard was committing a crime.
At least Zionists don't let just anybody play, so they're unlikely to be as dangerous as the recruiter Xians or conscripter Muslims.

Right now there are scores of journalists digging into the financial transactions of every SCOTUS justice. Maybe one of them will be able to tell us who paid off Kavanaugh’s massive debt. I’m sure there’s much more too. Gonna be interesting. 🍿 rollingstone.com/politics/poli

“One senator is personally standing in the way of promotions for 184 of our top-level military leaders. One senator is holding up pay raises for men and women in uniform. One senator is blocking key senior military leaders from taking their posts. One senator is jeopardizing America’s national security,” Warren said on the floor.

Ted Cruz laid out a sinister scheme in the lead-up to Jan. 6 to overturn a 224-year tradition of transferring power from one president to the next.

Ted Cruz is unworthy of the United States Senate.

Holy fuck, I just heard Ted Cruz on tape planning to steal the election by stopping the certification.

He needs to RESIGN.
Prosecute his ass, too.

"Seems like a pretty good message to me. Like a campaign that isn’t concerned about Twitter because it’s laser-focused on a few hundred thousand voters in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin." thetriad.thebulwark.com/p/bide

Ice cream is clearly God's way of telling us he likes us a little bit chubby.
