There’s a reason they’re targeting libraries. They don’t want you educated. They don’t want you to have a nuanced view of history. Or to read novels that will give you empathy. Or to know about inspiring women, Black or LGBTQ people. They want you intellectually small and easy to manipulate.

“In almost every case, the babies’ deaths could have been prevented with a long-standard vitamin K shot. But across the country, families — first in smatterings, now in droves — are declining the single, inexpensive injection given at birth to help their blood clot.” Devastating, and important.

Hi from United Conservative
Caucus
Were you aware government is building 160+ schools, funding 476 complexity teams, adding
3,000 teachers & 1,500 EAs?
Yes/No
All I know is that a PLAN to build schools doesn't deliver schools, and my property tax bill is going up because you bozos can't manage a windfall from energy royalties. Get your act together.

NEW: A California sheriff seized 650k+ ballots from last year's redistricting election in which voters approved a new congressional map to counter GOP gerrymanders. The move is an alarming sign that the FBI’s probes into the 2020 vote could be the first of more attacks on past election results.

About 70% of the U.S. economy runs on consumer spending. But as wealth concentrates at the top, the richest 10% can’t spend enough to sustain it — while everyone else can’t afford to. Reminder that trickle-down economics simply doesn’t make sense. It’s a hoax.
