South African socialized under the Apartheid, sharing pseudoscientific racist memes for years, has eugenics and impregnation fetish, supports AfD and states they are the future of Germany and western civilization, renames himself Kekius Maximus, supports trump and does the salute towards the crowd right after saying that the "future of our civilization is [being] secure[d]" and then does it one more time facing der Führer. Whoever isn't calling this out as a nazi salute is a nazi normalizer.

And he doesn't get convicted and he'll campaign on how nasty the Dems are. An impeachment without conviction is a "win".

It depends. Congress critters getting priority access to NIH/Walter Reed level care is one of those perks of being a politician. Of course, they can pay a lot for boutique medicine but I'd say, boutique medicine usually doesn't provide the best care. And if they'd got to non-fed academic institutions, they'd get an earful about this fuckery.

So believe it or not, it would impact people in congress quite directly.

It was both trendy in terms of sound and packaging/styling, but the whole album was mixed with such mastery that it was one of the best sounding package I've heard until perhaps the mid 2010s. That on its own is incredible, especially in a technologically driven genre.

The US population is unhealthy and there is a strong relationship between covid mortality and obesity. So some of the susceptibility cannot be blamed on a single sitting president. That said, his lying in February and March cost a lot of lives up front and that's where he could have made the strongest impact by showing leadership and preparedness (like getting masks so HCW wouldn't have to wear the same N95 for a month). He used an Obama-era system to boost the development of the vaccine (moderna at least). And then he bitched about lockdowns, which should have been managed dynamically based on the local healthcare system resources/capacity. But the most telling thing was, the moment he LOST the election, he abandoned the vaccine deployment efforts, so Americans lost 2 months in the rollout.

If anything happened to Fauci, they'd see a massive exodus from HHS and it would start a movement those gerontocrats needing doctors would not appreciate.

What's infuriating, and when I realized how homicidally bad trump is was February 2020, when there was all those rapidly published data trump had access to weeks prior to publication, and he kept on calling it the "flu". Yet wingnuts had to go over tens of thousands of Fauci emails to attack him. Yet nobody's criticized trump's publicly recorded lying that caused tens of thousands of preventable deaths.

it's annoying that politicians don't call it what it is: import tax.

he is a digital frotteur (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frotteurism). at the same time this is where everyone should draw the line.

Can you point me to the part of the text where they provide clarification from a biological standpoint? This language sets up the interpretation: "the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female [...] grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality". So if this is an "incontrovertible reality" then why do people have such an easy time refuting it?

Which gives me flashbacks about having to learn the specific adrenal enzyme dysfunctions that lead to erroneous sex-assignments at birth. But again, I don't think people need biology degrees to have an understanding of this and I'd like society to stop trying to give "good faith" interpretations to texts that are explicitly written in bad faith.
