  1. Cue #bothsides clown to give us racial equivocations. https://www.propublica.org/article/texas-abortion-ban-sepsis-maternal-mortality-analysis?utm_content=bufferc1aaa&utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky&utm_campaign=propublica-bsky
  2. Then why was the delete feature employed? That alone shows intent to circumvent the law.
  3. I’m going with the odds. The odds of 42 year old dying of a known health related issue are exponentially less than Putin, inc murdering a prosecutor with knowledge, credibility, and a history of threat.
  4. When federal prosecutors turn up dead in their homes, it deserves to be posted in this thread.
  5. Yours is a valued voice here, Inka.
  6. Well, ALRIGHT, Montana!
  7. Seems staged, but also speaks to an underlying truth.
  8. Went down to Gruene this morning, and thought about the bill seeking to rename I-35 turnip highway when I saw a sign that showed 35 is also designated the Purple Heart Trail. But, of course. Republicans shit on all things sacred.
  9. So shines a good deed in a weary world. That guy will get every vote I’ve got.
  10. Twenty plus DOGE staffers resign, and sound a warning on their way out the door. https://apnews.com/article/doge-elon-musk-federal-government-resignations-usds-6b7e9b7022e6d89d69305e9510f2a43c
  11. For my wife’s career the fallback was hiring folks with engineering degrees, even for jobs that required no engineering work. Made her mental, because it cost the city more than the job ought to have, and also because too many of these particular hires were clueless at how to manage.
  12. Back when the highway was built atop Ben White, I made use of the new U-turn lanes to go north, at the Menchaca intersection, and immediately saw there had been a bad wreck, with smoke still in the air. A teenage boy was screaming and going from one pile of flesh to another, and these were yards apart. “You killed my girlfriend!” he kept screaming. (He had been t-boned by a speeding truck that ran the light, his passenger door had come open and his date had been crushed and severed with each rollover). Finally, he yelled, “You ruined my truck!” A woman stepped from the bus stop, held open her arms, and he collapsed into a human embrace. Will never forget the horror, nor the empty feeling that filled the air.
  13. If Cannon is nominated, at least there won’t be push back to the idea that cunt was bought and paid for by turnip. Totally in the bag. Like we always knew.
  14. Have any of the usual bunch come out to condemn this blatant racism? I wouldn’t know as they are my ignore list.
  15. Samsung broke ground in Taylor in 2022. TSMC broke ground in 2021. This might have helped that happen: “It was this financial fallout that led to the creation of the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors and Science Act (otherwise known as the CHIPS Act). Signed into law on August 9, 2022, the CHIPS and Science Act directs nearly $53 billion to “American semiconductor research” (source is one of your links.) Tariffs had nothing to do with that. Neither did turnip.
  16. Were it not for the abortion ban, I’d agree that abortions ought only be done by licensed doctors. I will focus my anger at those who lied under oath to get into a position to upend a right that was recognized, and those who seek the harshest penalties for the crime of exercising a right.The only way to rescind a right held by US citizens is a Constitutional Amendment.
  17. The ninth circuit denied a stay of Alsup’s order to reinstate the fired federal probationary employees. The cote was 2-1. How soon will SCOTUS act on this? Day after tomorrow? https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25589924-order-denying-admin-stay/
  18. I thought oil prices were falling. And the deplorable chalk up another shameful victory: ”Navajo Code Talkers disappear from military websites after Trump DEI order” https://www.axios.com/local/salt-lake-city/2025/03/17/navajo-code-talkers-trump-dei-military-websites-wwii
  19. You joke, and I laughed. The better play would have been to kidnap the immunity voting SCOTUS justices, and fly them to Gitmo. And constantly explain why their ruling was a threat to the Constitution, and that, therefore, they already had agreed that their kidnapping was legal and that Biden had immunity from any consequence for doing so. Explain that if they would rescind the ruling they would be released. All what ifs aside, it was apparent this was coming. Past presidents made hard choices that held on to the Republic. As much as I love Joe, I can’t help but see his return to politics as usual, which he was great at, as a huge mistake.
  20. Well, did he have turnip riddled with Seal Team bullets? Apparently, he had the power to do so, given the threat turnip then posed, and now demonstrates.
  21. Haven’t seen this posted. Republicans are throwing the confetti they’ve made of the Constitution in the air.
  22. The persecuting has hit a higher gear,. ”Attor­ney Gen­er­al Ken Pax­ton Announces Arrest of Hous­ton-Area Abor­tion­ist and Crack­down on Clin­ics Pro­vid­ing Ille­gal Abortions Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced the arrest of Maria Margarita Rojas, 48, for providing illegal abortions and illegally operating a network of clinics in the Northwest Houston area. Rojas, a midwife known as “Dr. Maria,” was taken into custody in Waller County and charged with the illegal performance of an abortion, a second-degree felony, as well as practicing medicine without a license.” https://www.oag.state.tx.us/news/releases/attorney-general-ken-paxton-announces-arrest-houston-area-abortionist-and-crackdown-clinics
