Dear Twitter and FB users "Well, everybody's here" isn't a good take when it's a livestock pen.

#louisiana Senator Cassidy allowed an antivaxxer to become in charge of health care in this country. #flu is the worst in 15 years, measles is spreading, TB is making a comeback and bird flu is spreading. #gop is incompetent

Yesterday, a woman was assaulted and kidnapped / detained by three men who refused to identify themselves for speaking during a Kootenai County Republican Central Committee town hall and pointing out that town halls are supposed to feature citizen comment. The men who detained her were not wearing any badges or security labels/company logos. They were carrying zip ties on them, and were handing out religious Christo-fash pamphlets. Some of the material they were passing out was titled “prayer guide for state legislators - make America righteous again”

The woman illegally detained is Teresa Borrenpohl. Other people (all democrats, according to local media) who tried to help were also detained. Additional footage displays an off duty officer attempting to remove her before the men in black did. He threatened to use force against her and threatened anyone who was filming.

The town hall took place at a high school in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Local Idaho media claims that her violent removal was initiated by County Sheriff Bob Norris before involving LEAR Asset management, a private security firm with alleged ties to sheriff Norris.

@mcnado I don't know about quantity, but #USAID was paying farmers $2 billion per year.

I'm not sure it's justified, but I get angrier at "mitigation theater" than I do the maskless. I'm in a hospital that *supposedly* has a #covid19, #rsv & #flu mask mandate. Security guards and housekeeping all unmasked. Every nurse has a mask under their nose or chin. Patient comes into small waiting room sniffling and coughing, sees us masked, and puts one on under her nose. ALL these people clearly know better. They just don't care. Having knowledge and not using it triggers me.
