… Turns out the big steel mill project in IA from the company in India that Trump announced to try and rig the election in that state is actually not looking like a great deal after all since the people of IA have to foot the bill for the multinational conglomerate to come there.
At least it’s fully treatable and curable with antibiotics. I would be more concerned with RFK Jr allowing the weaponization of viruses like Ebola used in bioterrorism against his own citizens. But we have our own plague, resistant to antibiotics and is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
If the strain has been weaponized I wouldn't count on the standard streptomycin course for treatment. Right now I'm not worried beyond the obvious evidence of a continued Russian bioweapons program, but I'm paying close attention (I worked in civilian biodefense during the Iraq war).
Thank you for your service, Nicole. Do you have any concerns that the new expansion of the White House bunker is in preparation for something such as an outbreak, civil unrest, nuclear war?
I appreciate that, Mike, but I have to reiterate that I was a civilian. It was an honor to work with the IC and the Marines, as well.
I am worried, and I won't lie. Having worked in that world though, I take comfort in the unflinching expertise and professionalism of the people who populate it, and who serve quietly, daily. The NNSA for example, en masse, would resign I believe, rather than act based on politics or threats from the administration.
I'm deeply worried about our public health crisis, however (crisis of "leadership, Soviet-style politicization of factual reality, purging of experts at CDC, EIS, NIH, etc). In the event of an outbreak I think we're on very dangerous ground, made more hazardous by the propaganda and public distrust of medical and epidemiological expertise.
On nuclear strikes? Yes, I worry, and have done since his first term, but more so now. I'm particularly worried about Putin's provacation leading to our traitor in chief responding in kind, etc. He and his (and here I am not referring to Putin) are dangerously stupid, eschatological, and unhinged. Again though, I sleep trusting the vast infrastructure across the military and IC who aren't beholden, to keep us safe, though as Dear Leader grows more desperate I grow more concerned.
It's almost facile to end my comment with an exhortation to vote, but we need all hands on deck and majorities in both houses of Congress to rein in these madmen at the switch.
“… Tillis voted to confirm both Noem and Hegseth. In his book, Tillis calls his vote for Hegseth his “biggest regret” as a senator.”
This the infuriating part about these people. Just what exactly in Hegseth’s background did Tillis see as qualifying him any conceivable way to head up the DOD? Anything at all. It was a forgone conclusion by anyone with two brain cells to rub together that this frilly Fox couch-sitter had zero qualifications. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. He’s a drunk, a womanizer, a religious crackpot and incompetent at running anything bigger than a breadbox. Now, the North Carolina moron has “regrets.” Must be the Southern version of “concerns.” Fuck every one of these republicans. I’m still royally pissed over November 2024. This godforsaken electorate had better deliver big this time, or for one hell of a long time the world will look at us and rightfully brand us as the dumbest bunch of assholes in the history of the world.
Tom Tillis on his mea culpa book tour can fuck off. He's responsible for this mess of our government institutions, health care, education, food quality, military on and on. He and the rest of the spineless GOP weasels can cry all they want after the fact. Cut the indignant act because it's not working on those who are truly suffering under this regime. Agree John, the electorate better deliver a huge middle finger to the MAGA GOP. Mail ballots go out here in AZ on Wednesday. I'm ready to send a message to them by voting.
Why the fuck would the fabulously wealthy Rick Scott (whose wealth came from a health care scam like Vivek) be personally concerned about high gas prices?
We have this one opportunity, friends: if we allow these fascists to continue to consolidate power, our experiment will have ended. 101M people chose not to vote in 2024. We cannot ever make that mistake again, but especially next month. Plan your vote, check your registration, and stay involved. Eyes on the prize.
I am really liking El-Sayed. The guy is unflappable and he can use his words like daggers. All while he speaks sensible truths. He and Ossoff would make an interesting pair.
Ron: … Sorry this has started out rather dark. Sign of the times. I never promised you a rose garden.
And we don't want a rose garden; we want the unvarnished truth, for which we are eternally grateful. Plus, I'm encouraged that the Dems are putting Epstein pals and enablers front and center. Let's include Nutlick and the recent whistleblower suicide. Nutlick is corrupt and dirty as hell.
Simon Andriesz: " ... The personal consequences of whistleblowing, and the retaliation I say followed, have been devastating for my family and me. Follow me here on X and on LinkedIn. I intend to share more of the evidence and the story behind what happened.”
I do not for a minute believe it was a suicide. Howeird Nutlick and so many other powerful men have a lot to lose and so many people who posed a threat to them because they knew too much have already died. I hate these fat cats beyond words. Eyes wide shut.
Ron: … The good news is that if the pneumonic plague does spread and become serious problem we have RFK Jr and Dr. Oz in charge of public health to find us some miracle cures from Trump donors for $99.99 because Trump only appoints the finest people to critically important jobs. So we have nothing to worry about - everything will be fine.
OMG. It's groundhog day. Can't believe we may have to go through another pandemic with Donnie Dumbass in charge. You did this, MAGA congress and cabinet. May the plague kill you all and leave the innocent to improve the gene pool.
There seems to be an epidemic of suicides surrounding people with ties to Epstein. Just co-incidence? Is the shame becoming too much to live with? Are they being told their choice is either suicide, or whoever came for Epstein is coming for them too?

“Fat people with guns” - the US in a nutshell!
Most won't be fat after the decision to pay rent instead of buying groceries.
Good time for Drumpf to take a trip to Russia. As close to that lab as he can get. Show us what a big, strong, rotting carcass you are, old man.
Agreed, djt thinks alot of putin!
And putin thinks djt stinks..

If he came to a place near me I would go just to tell him that.
Some ballots "accidentally" went out today.

No one is going to buy that book anyway - Fucking coward Tillis!
Tell it!
Why the fuck would the fabulously wealthy Rick Scott (whose wealth came from a health care scam like Vivek) be personally concerned about high gas prices?
Did sodium pentecostal price raise...?

VOTE , VOTE EARLY and VOTE BLUE!
Up and down the damn ballot!

He seems wonderful, and I would be interested in that ticket with Ossoff
Fuck Tillis. Add his name to the list of people who never should have been selected (or voted for).
Too-little-too-late Tillis infuriates me. He should hang his head in shame forever for approving Hegseath and Blanche. Go away, Tom.
Ana on The View let him have it this morning (as did others).
“I can feel him stinking up the air tonight O Lord”….
lol!
"Smell him"

Agree, agree, agree! Give us the unvarnished truth every time (at least as much as YOU can stand!). We depend on you! 🥰

Yeah I agree. This is too big of a coincidence that he committed suicide right after saying he was going to expose more people. This feels like a hit.
Les Wexner's accountant was murdered shortly before he was scheduled to testify against Wexner and spill the beans on his corruption.
I know. That’s a wild story. And of course there’s Epstein himself.
And his victims.

Those assholes ARE the plague!

They are probably not told anything before they are murdered…
I don't believe they committed suicide. Too many "coincidences."
"Coincidence takes a lot of planning."
Malcolm Nance
I sure hope he gave any and all evidence that he may have still had to other people in case something like this
(suicide 🙄)happened.
Stop the corrupt illegal crazy bullshit including the Supreme Court!!! Vote 🔵🔵🔵
The McConnell heist must be told in full: include the hypocrisy. Amy Coney Barrett was confirmed WHILE AMERICANS WERE ACTUALLY VOTING IN 2020!!!!
As a 30+ year practicing attorney I view Gorsuch and Coney Barrett illegitimate members of SCOTUS.
An institution I once revered has been profoundly diminished.
I’m so glad that I don’t watch Fox “News”. I never want to see or hear anything from the lying cross wearing Leavitt again!
It was pretty much a given a blonde who lies like she breathes would get hired by Fox.
Andy Borowitz said she wanted to get onto Fox in order to get the Dept of Defense job. 😂
Don’t trust the polls! “Polls always underestimate MAGA” djt.
This seemed to propel djt to presidency 24! Although I had a feeling the election was stolen by djt, regime. & musk!
After hearing rumps lying& voting to cheat in speeches and muskrat back in USA,
Methinks there is foul-play afoot!
