The last thorough report on Trump’s health came in 2019, when he was still president. That checkup classified him as obese with a weight of 243 pounds and a body mass index of 30.4, which raises the risk of heart disease, diabetes and other problems. That report also revealed increased dosages of medication for high cholesterol.

As for his family history, his father had Alzheimer’s disease late in life

That, plus an obvious cognitive decline do not paint a pretty picture. If Rs are realistically voting for President Vance, they deserve to know that.

I am outraged! Where are we going to find money for all the gender reassignment surgeries for undocumented children now?

Seriously though, good for them. Don't let the Republicans in Congress play politics with disaster victims' lives.

Sometimes, I think Cointellpro figured out that you don’t need to insert provocateurs to talk about terrorist shit. Just put one nerd in the chat to challenge a subgroup’s purity, and every leftist movement will collapse into infighting and dissolve.

“NRA used to teach gun safety” is a great line for purple states.

Resigning requires feeling shame for your actions. Vance has absolutely no shame.

Keep in mind that his private communications have leaked. He talked about what a monster Trump is for making immigrants feel unwelcome and unsafe.

Vance is not like Trump. Trump was raised to be a monster and not intelligent enough to question anything. Vance, OTOH, is smart enough to know better. He chose to be this person. He willingly, voluntarily sold his soul to the MAGA devil. That’s why looking at him and listening to him makes people’s skin crawl. There was a person in there once who was forcibly evicted in favor of a monster.

Holy shit. Kamala is killing it. She’s inspiring at this point.

The Bell Riots would have happened if Biden stayed in the race, and we were looking at Trump/Vance being in charge for four years. Biden changed the timeline.

It's likely going to turn out that Covid has fucked our brains in ways we don't understand yet. The before and after difference is too extreme to be caused by a collective trauma from 4 years ago. If that was really the problem, we would be over it by now and back to normal.

Not as clumsy or random as a conspiracy theory; an elegant controversy for a more civilized age.

Both sides have a lot of hatred and resentment toward each other. The problem is that the power balance is extremely heavily in favor of Israel, and they are able to exert their will on the Palestinians through force the Palestinians have no answer for.

But yes, killing innocent people is bad whenever it happens, and no, not all Israelis are bad, just the government, military, and settlers. One admittedly horrific massacre does not give Israel license to commit genocide on the Palestinian people, which is precisely what is happening right now.

RIP Legend. Gone but not forgotten.

The Ukrainian underwater biome restoration project is way ahead of schedule. So nice of the Russians to donate so much equipment.
