just another one of Trump's inflated and wreckless accusations.
BREAKING: Mass shooting in Farmington, New Mexico. At least three civilians have been killed and two police officers have been shot and hospitalized The suspect has been killed by police.
Especially if you get sick or in an accident:
Florida doctors can now deny health care coverage based on personal views
If a health care workers discovers you're gay, Muslim, Jewish, Atheist, or any other minority they hate (or any minority their "faith" hates), that health care worker -- doctors included -- can refuse to provide care.
It’s Now Legal in Florida for Doctors to Deny Health Care to Anyone If They Feel Like It
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a dangerous bill that would give virtually any health care provider (including insurance companies) the right to deny care.
Under the new law, “a health care provider or health payor has the right to opt out of participation in or payment for any health care service on the basis of a conscience-based objection,” meaning based on their moral, ethical, or religious beliefs.
Florida Law Will Allow Doctors to Deny Treatments to LGBTQ Patients
Medical "conscience" law empowers any health professional to deny treatment or services if doing so violates their moral or ethical beliefs.
Yes, this is happening in DeSantis's "Free State of Florida."
It's free if you're a straight, white Christian Trumpublican.
The rest of you are at the mercy of whatever any health care worker or insurance representative holds a prejudice against.
Of course, this is insanity and will not stand.
********************************
And in DeSantis's crusade to keep Floridians in the dark (stupid) about actual historical events:
CENSORSHIP SUPPRESSION OF 'IDEOLOGICAL RHETORIC'
Florida rejects Holocaust education textbooks in clampdown on ‘woke’ instruction
One of the rejected Holocaust textbooks was “Modern Genocides.”
The other was an online learning course, “History of the Holocaust.”
Both were intended for high school students.
*****************************
DeSantis is a non-stop anti-democracy autocrat, telling the taxpayers of Florida what HE thinks their children should learn in the "Free State of Florida."
The move comes amid a larger conservative attack on higher education DEI programs, which DeSantis and others say reinforce racial divisions and promote liberal orthodoxy."
******************************
Florida is a "free state" ONLY if its taxpayers agree with what the governor and his rubber stamp legislature imposes on them.
But, please, tell me how the Democratic Party wants to shut down free speech and expression, and how intolerant of ideas and actual historical events Liberals/Democrats are .
Ron DeSantis is EVERYTHING we despise in an authoritarian figure.
How did this happen in America?
They utterly failed!
We knew they would!
Los Angeles Times on CNN’s Trump Town Hall:
John King, the network’s veteran political analyst, hinted at the emptiness of the evening: “He is who he is, and he is who he was.”
Trump was vulgar, loud, and mendacious.
IOW, he was his usual obnoxious lying self.
I often read a particular far-right Qanon pro-Trump blogger to see what the Trumpers are thinking and how they twist themselves into the proverbial pretzel to defend the indefensible creep they support. And I'm never disappointed to see how their minds work.
A jury found Donald J. Trump LIABLE for the sexual assault and defamation of E. Jean Carroll; but right on brand, the blogger believes Trump, a known documented *30,000*, liar, and not the witnesses nor the victim (who were all deposed and sworn in under oath).
The blogger is clearly on the side of the perpetrator of sexual assault, and obviously knows nothing about what was revealed about Trump in the trial nor anything about Trump's disastrous deposition, where he bragged, again, about being a star, which, he implied, enables him to sexually assault any women he wants.
The blogger is infected with Trumpism and will never see her hero for what he is: A sexual predator, assaulter, and defamer, a liar, a cheat, and a fraud.
Apparently, she and her pals admire those attributes in him.
What more can be said about the depravity of Trump and of those who continue to support him?
Read this and weep for our country. There are millions and millions who think like her and her readers, and this is why, IMO, America is doomed:
This vile human being:
Seen on the internet:
"Firearm mortality has skyrocketed in Texas over the past decade."
"Take the train in Texas - prepare to be shot and killed.
At 4:30 PM, May 8, there was. disagreement on a train. It ended with two people shot, one of them died, a third was injured by shrapnel.
Texas. Is anywhere safe?"
As a parent I’m not worried that my 9 and 13 year olds are going to be “indoctrinated” with “wokeness” at school. I’m not worried that they’re going to ‘feel guilty about their whiteness’ because they’re learning accurate history. I’m not worried that they’re going to be “groomed” to become furries and to make their pees pees in litter boxes.
Those things aren’t real.
Wanna know what is real?
My worry that they’re going to get shot. That someone with an AR-15 is going to go into their school and shoot them. So, while the same gun fetishizing, AR-15 lapel pin wearing, locked and loaded family Christmas card posing Republicans fear monger & manufacture crises under the guise of “parents rights,”I say this:
It is my right as a parent to send my kids to school without worrying that they will get shot. It ain’t the drag queens, the African American history, the books with two moms or two seahorse dads which threaten our kids. It’s the f**king guns."
Madness:
Deepak Chopra:
"I live in a blue state now but even the fear of lone wolf actors and copycats crosses my mind. I lived in Texas for a while - the view from the outside now looks to me like they've gone mad. I still have friends there - during the pandemic, they all knew multiple people who died of Covid and detested how careless public health policy was.
Now they are afraid to go to the mall, the movies or to a restaurant. Some are actively planning to leave. All in the name of 'freedom' this carnage.
How free are those who were lost in Sulphur Springs, El Paso, Uvalde, Cleveland, Allen and other places? And so many tiny children who will never be able to be free to grow into the lives they were born to live? Is that freedom?
This is what guns, guns and more guns hath wrought.
Freedom, indeed.
It looks more like a prison of violence and death to me."
Vile human beings who serve in Congress proudly displaying pins that glorify the weapons used to slaughter innocent Americans.
They disgust me:
2023 alone:
The stench is getting stinkier.
Let's not forget that Harlan Crow had business before SCOTUS, and Clarence didn't recuse himself from his benefactor's cases.
In addition to the luxurious vacations, private jet transportation, gifts, buying Clarence's mother's home and financing its rehabilitation, ProPublica has uncovered the fact that Crow financed Clarence's nephew's education.
