Vance is incredibly stupid, so it's fortunate that he can offset that with charisma of a seven-week old roadkill.

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

There needs to be an entity comprised of medical professionals to oversee the physical and mental health of elected and appointed officials. Just as the Supreme Court should be a term appointment, so should every elected and appointed Official.

Fuckface told a Nebraska crowd that Iran taking out Los Angeles and San Diego would be a very small price to pay, and one columnist couldn't find it on the front pages of the Times, AP or NPR. If Biden had said it, what would cable be running right now?

The system has huge flaws, including this one. The "let's give rural states a fair voice" idea is now way out of line. Like having a 50 yard race between an 8 yr old and an adult, and the headstart you give the 8 yr old is 5 yards from the finish line.

Persian Gulf crude oil flows have largely recovered. For diesel and gasoline, it's more complicated.
While crude oil exports from the Persian Gulf region have returned to roughly 98% of their pre-war levels, product exports — of diesel, gasoline, and other derivatives — haven't come back as quickly.

Trump and Republicans are terrified of policies that curb their own wealth and power, and the wealth and power of the oligarchs that bankroll them. That's why they're amping up the fearmongering about "socialism."

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
