  1. Jesus. Beyond the hate he spews, how does anyone listen to him? His voice is worse than nails on a chalkboard.
  2. As someone who's never seen his show, does Jones always sound like this? Or is he about to give the judge and the jury Covid?
  3. In your spare time do you read? Elite! Or do you watch TV? Not Elite!
  4. Absolutely. And the blame lies with the lawmakers and their useful idiots who vote for them because they think they'll be able to afford a yacht with Magats in power. I'm critical of hospital administrators they way pilots were critical of other pilots on the 737MAX thread. Because I work in hospital risk and I can't imaging telling physicians on our staff some of the stuff I'm seeing is said here. And I really didn't mean to bring it up, and surely wouldn't have if I saw Ana's post, or thought it could be construed in any way as excusing what the lawmakers in those states are doing to women there. But all that said, I'm in a state in which the right to choose is protected, working for a secular institution, and these are decisions I don't foresee having to make, at least until 2025, when MAGA gets control of the federal government.
  5. So much this. And to clarify my earlier post, which I made not having read Ana's drivel as he's been on my ignore list for a while. I'm troubled by hospital administrators making these decisions and I wish they'd do more to stand up for their medical staff and employees, and the patients at their facilities, for whom these decisions should not be made by administrators in the first place. I'd like to think if I was in the administrator's shoes I'd tell my medical staff to provide medically necessary care and we would defend them in any suit or prosecution that followed, while screaming from the rooftops about this. But I'm a billion times more angry that any of these people are being put in the position to have to make these patient care decisions based on irrational laws designed to punish women, and to push medical providers who care for women from practice (at least in "red" states), and risking patients' lives and mental and physical health over demagoguery.
  6. So much this. I work in hospital risk management, but thank god in a blue state, and I can't imagine telling a doctor to do anything other than what is in the patient's best interest under those circumstances. And then probably hire outside counsel to proactively litigate the issue.
  7. Probably the least important point in all the horrifying shit in this post, but how MAGA are these hospital lawyers and the other doctors. I can't imaging telling a physician in that position to do anything but what's medically appropriate for the mother, and that we'd appoint doctors to represent her if some asshole DA wants to go after her. If nothing else, and from just a hospital risk standpoint, that's one hell of a med mal suit they're risking if mom dies from bleeding or sepsis or whatever other preventable cause of death that's coming.
  8. We already have prisoners convicted of drug crimes for that.
  9. I'm old enough to remember when the GQP was going to disavow him after the "grab her by the pussy" tape was released, and a bunch of them (briefly) pulled their endorsements of trump and there was speculation pence would drop off the ticket. Now, Donny Two Scoops has tried to get pence killed, and pence still supports him, and Donny rewrote their entire platform to read "whatever trump wants."
  10. All true. But Rhinebeck's in the Hudson Valley, not that far from the city, with a lot of ex-NYCers. I'm surprised the Kushners would want to go there.
  11. It’s true. Benny Thompson just announces it at the hearing
  12. Sure. But my clients wouldn't also have first bought off the judges making the decision on the concealment of evidence charges.
  13. The GOP isn't a political party anymore. It's a cult. The GOP as an actual political party has, maybe, three members who are currently in office. Everyone else is a cult member. They will not abandon trump no matter what. I can't imagine given this the GOP getting rid of MAGA, but if they did just about everyone in their leadership is a billion times more committed to MAGA than to the GOP. The best thing that could happen to the country would be if trump died tomorrow. I'm not sure how the cult continues without its leader. But the idea, at least for as long as trump is alive, of the GQP jettisoning MAGA and trump is complete wishcasting and recency bias based on how the GOP (at least publicly pretended to) acted during the rest of our lifetimes until their base's brain became broken by a Black man as President. Acting like polls, or stench of loss, or basic decency matters anymore to the people who make decisions in the GQP, is to completely ignore the last few years. None of it matters. They only care about holding on to power, which they'll do by controlling a radicalized cult and suppressing the votes of the rest of us.
  14. If trump starts a MAGA party, the GOP will only consist of Cheney, Kinzinger, Romney, and a bunch of old, white RETIRED politicians. There is no rationality or shame left to the remaining members of the GOP. Edit to add there's also no stench to losing, because they've convinced their cult members they've won and there's a vast conspiracy of fraudulent votes.
  15. I can't believe I'm about to ask this. But do we know if donny was staying at his ex's house. This happened in NYC and he was scheduled to be there next week for the deposition.
  16. This. The cult is not going to get rid of the cult leader. Hell, they changed their entire "platform" to "whatever Trump says."
  17. I hope our fed government is providing her with security. If they could provide security to Kav because people were protesting his taking away rights while he ate a crappy steak dinner, we can provide people who save children's lives with protection fro actual violent assholes.
  18. Yup. It's the shooters having access to weapons of war.
  19. Curious if the OP ever commented on the former so called president calling Mexicans "rapists and murderers." Or being from a "shithole country." Or, hell, anything from the hearings today.
  20. So no discussion of this yet that I could find from yesterday.
  21. As someone who lives on the east coast let’s do it. The country would be solidly blue. And we could pass voting rights legislation right away and end the extreme gerrymandering in NC and VA and the GQP would be purged except for maybe SC. The rest of y’all can have Gilead
  22. It's even better, we have a pretty good chance someone, really multiple people, severely wounded in this incident will need to beg online for help with health care expenses even if they have been paying out the ass for Healthcare for years. 100% chance. I have family in Highland Park, who were thankfully not at the parade. But I've already seen requests related to a family of 4, all of whom were wounded and need surgery, and help paying for the four hospitalizations.
