The USS Mason managed to catch up with it before it reached a Yemeni port.

It seems a bit absurd to hear people say “Biden’s not perfect so vote for the guy who fomented the Capitol riot instead!” How is voting for someone much worse going to make anything better? Are some people trying to suggest that fascism is somehow a viable option to Biden? A fascist police state is not any kind of viable option at all. And Trump is openly saying now that this is what he wants.

@EyalL You said this so much better than I ever have. And I think the world has still not grasped that we really mean Hamas will be destroyed. They cannot believe we won’t bend the knee again and live with terrorists among us.
Born in 1917, Egyptian physicist Sameera Moussa studied radioactive isotopes used to create medical images. Her work “laid the groundwork for a revolution in the affordability & safety of nuclear medicine.”
Concerned about the potential use of nuclear weapons during WWII, Moussa organized the Atomic Energy for Peace conference.
She was likely assassinated at age 35 in a case that remains unsolved. https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/04/the-strange-tragic-story-of-egypts-foremost-female-nuclear-scientist/ #science #history
@thepoliticalcat @Rasta lol I’m a Christian and I have never been able to find anything even remotely Christian about Christmas. It was a ploy to adopt somebody else’s celebration to get people into the church to fill the coffers. I’m a fan of Christ… Christianity ehh not so much.
VERMONT HATE CRIME!

#pepper fact! The color of a pepper isn't inherently indicative of heat; while it can be used to see ripeness (which can affect heat), not all peppers turn red when ripe, and not all ripe peppers are spicier than unripe ones.
