I know his lawyers are doing their job, but does it not bother at all that it has come to this? That this is the country we live in?

IIRC, it was threats. I seem to remember it was going to be a fine of $4K per unjabbed employee. Not an insignificant number.

The funny part is that it goes both ways. I met a colleague to work offsite yesterday at a local hotel. We met for breakfast in the restaurant/bar. My colleague needed to change his laptop, and the only place that had plugs was the bar, but they were nice enough to let us camp out there for the day. I estimate we were there for about 6 hours. The TV was on, and they had it on MSNBC. Holy shit. I knew they were bad, but six hours if it made me want to throw up. Nothing but a steady diet of Trump Bad. I don't think anything else was reported on - no world events, no weather, nothing. Talk about fake news. But they carry themselves to be legitimate, which is galling. I can see how people get severe cases of TDS.

HPV had the nickname "Help Pay for Vioxx" after it was pulled from the Markey. Remind people of that.

Interesting little piece on dual citizenship. Especially of interest is the part where they didn't want to tell him, but everything else is public. What are you hiding?

I know a few people that have it, but they get it more for nostalgic reasons - Grandpa came over from Italy, etc. My husband is eligible because his parents are from Ireland and he has mulled it over. But I wonder what rhe overall percentage of the population is versus those in government.

Also, something like 75% of countries now allow it. It didn't used to be thst high.

PBD went in a major rant about this on his podcast. Called people out to step up.

Start at about 20 minutes in and goes for about 10 minutes. (He has shorts of it, but better to watch the whole thing. )

This needs to be played at a hearing, and then I want the FDA and CDC to explain it. Don't hand me the bullshit that you are eight times more likely to have myocarditis if you are not vaxxed. If that is the case, where is the pre-2020 video? Assholes.

Jackie Spier left Congress. Then I saw last week where she is running for a seat on the San Mateo Board of Supervisors. WTF? GO AWAY.

Friend of mine made an observation long ago regarding the run to therapy; "You don't need a shrink. You need a priest." There is a lot of truth in that - many people don't want to acknowledge that the problem isn't mental - it is spiritual, which is why therapy doesn't solve their problems.

I turned it off as he tried (and failed) to channel Elvis. He didn't even play all that great, but man, they sure as hell wanted their cheerleader and football hero story. Weak.

I caught that. When was the last time you ever heard the address of the stadium? It was very pointed.

I get Al Davis Way because of the Raiders, but 3333? Hell the SF Giants are located at Willie Mays Plaza, but it is ONE Willie Mays Plaza, not 333 or 999.
