no demand for frozen OJ?

maybe.

but i’ve had problems getting it in #NYC since the first Cheetolini coup.

right before the pandemic, Florida & other #neoconfederacy states ramped up their anti-immigration terrorism. then there’s the “one in a hundred years” hurricanes, snowstorms & heatwaves that devastated southern crops.

i use frozen OJ as a substitute to a vitamin C. just one teaspoon a day and am scurvy free.

it may be lack of demand, but #fascism has raised the cost of production

people have no idea how rare it is for the governor of New York to issue an executive order; ESPECIALLY for something like vaccines. am not talking about Hozschul either, am talking about the office of the governor.

this is truly unprecedented and yet more evidence the #GOP #MAGA #neoconfederacy have used access to health care ―starting with #abortion― as the cleaver for breaking the federal Union.

this is a civil war by public health policy and there’s no other way to say it.

Apparently it's "Fascist Appeasing" to not want one country's fascists to invade your own country. Interesting take.

The Texas Senate has approved a bill that will empower citizens to sue anyone who “manufactures, distributes, mails, transports, delivers, prescribes, or provides” abortion pills to Texans for at least $100,000 in damages, @[email protected] reports. It will now head to Gov. Greg Abbott's desk. Mary Tuma looks at how this new law, modeled after the 2021 "bounty-hunter"-style six-week abortion ban, could have repercussions throughout the United States. “It will fuel fear among manufacturers and providers nationwide, while encouraging neighbors to police one another’s reproductive lives, further isolating pregnant Texans, and punishing the people who care for them,” said Blair Wallace, policy and advocacy strategist on reproductive freedom at the ACLU of Texas, in a statement. https://flip.it/LNsrDo #USLaw #Texas #Abortion #ReproductiveFreedom #ReproductiveJustice #Women #WomensHealth #Health

Mississippi’s Good Ole Boy GOP Governor Declares April As Confederate Heritage Month - NewsBreak

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves declared April will be celebrated as Confederate Heritage Month in Mississippi, keeping a 31-year-old tradition alive.  The proclamation came from Beauvoir, the museum and home of Confederate President Jefferson Davis. In a Facebook post dated Apr. 12, Reeves pushed the declaration to “honor all who lost their lives in this war.” “Whereas, as we honor all who lost their lives in this war, it is important for all Americans to reflect upon our nation’s past, to gain insight from our mistakes and successes, and to come to a full understanding that the lessons learned yesterday and today...

IF STATE LAW SUPERSEDES FEDERAL LAW, THIS IS #SECESSION

i have said for decades now, #abortion is the gateway drug for the #neoconfederacy and the destruction of the federal United States.

this is the losers of the Civil War saying, if we make lynching legal you can't do anything about it.

because, let's be clear: letting a woman die by not giving her the medical intervention she needs to survive is an extrajudicial death sentence.

Emergency rooms not required to perform life-saving abortions, federal appeals court rules

The Biden administration reminded hospitals of their obligation to perform life-saving abortions under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act after the overturn of Roe v. Wade. Texas sued, arguing it was an overstep that mandated abortions.

I haven't kept up with the League of the South -- I had the impression that they were pretty well hamstrung after the Sines verdict, but what do I know?

Well, I do know that CSPOA has always had a pretty major tendency toward Southern nationalism and Christian Identity, so it only makes sense that new leader Sam Bushman would do a radio show from LotS's "Dixie Fest" in South Carolina in July. It apparently went about as you would expect...

===

"Bushman’s broadcast highlighted the ongoing relationship between the CSPOA leader and the League of the South. It also highlighted some of the reasons for this coalition –including an embrace of southern nationalism and the Confederacy, a full-throated defense of Confederate monuments, the repetition of ideas once mustered to defend Jim Crow segregation, and, disturbingly, the promotion of the virulently racist and antisemitic Christian Identity pseudo-theology."
