"Today, 16 more people have been returned to their families after being held hostage by Hamas for more than 50 days. Among them, is Liat Beinin—a high school teacher, a guide at Israel’s Holocaust Museum Yad Vashem, and an American," says President Biden in a statement.

My bet? Both are R*'s. Talk about cancer, this is one sick country!

2. For Dec 25, what's the risk of COVID?

8-10 people (small gathering) = 25% chance someone is infectious

20 people (visiting two families) = 47% chance

100 people (flight, restaurant, etc.) = 96% chance

Limit gatherings, #MaskUp, #VaxUp, Test/Isolate, #CleanTheAir “

Bad.

10 people (daycare, team meeting) = 17% chance someone is infectious

30 people (classroom) = 43% chance

50 people (lecture, restaurant) = 61% chance

Do tell.

“One of #Trump's current attorneys told #JackSmith's team that, within days of DOJ issuing a subpoena last year for all classified #documents at Mar-a-Lago, she "very clearly" warned Trump that if he failed to fully comply -- but then swore he did -- "it's going to be a crime”..

Sources said the lawyer, Jennifer Little, told investigators Trump "absolutely" understood the warning” #legal

How about a law making it illegal for voters to have to stand in line for hours and hours? We all know what the GOP is up to.

The Missed Chance for Peace
Oct. 12, 2023

Throughout this horrible week, my mind has repeatedly flashed back to Dec. 23, 2000. That was the day the Palestinians were offered a path to having their own nation on roughly 95 percent of the land in the West Bank and 100 percent of the land in the Gaza Strip. Under that outline, Israel would also swap some of its own land to compensate the Palestinians in exchange for maintaining 80 percent of its settler presence in the West Bank.

The Palestinians would control, in President Bill Clinton’s formulation, “Arab areas” of East Jerusalem. And on the most sensitive religious sites, there would have been divided sovereignty or jurisdiction, with Palestinians controlling the Haram al-Sharif (including the Aqsa and Dome of the Rock mosques) and Israel controlling the Western Wall and the holy space of which it is a part.

I'm really tired of people reporting posts about freeing Palestine and calling for a ceasefire and end to the genocide.

Israel does not equal all Jewish people, especially those in the diaspora. There are millions of Jewish people who march FOR Palestine because they take the phrase "Never Again" seriously. It's harmful to equate Israeli government and military with all Jewish people. Stop it.

We must fight to END ALL genocides regardless of who perpetuates it. Thanks.

Reminder: if you are a conservative and publish a book, there is a good chance some wealthy person will buy a bunch of copies of the book just to get you on the bestseller list.

But if you're the lady who babbles about "Jewish space lasers," maybe not so much.
