In The Iraq War, 40 countries stood side by side with the USA to ensure Saddam was removed.

We Europeans fought in Iraq, not because WE felt threatened, but because a Republican President in the US told us, HE felt threatened.

Today, we feel threatened by Russia. Not because of a flawed intelligence report on weapons of mass destruction, but because Putin is killing Ukrainians on the battlefield every day.

And at this critical moment, Republicans want to hold back the aid?

Shame on them.

“People infected multiple times with COVID-19 are more likely to develop Long Covid, and most NEVER fully recover from the condition. Those are just two findings of a comprehensive new 3-year research study” https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/998107
Second Infection Hikes Long COVID Risk: Expert Q&A

Lead researcher Ziyad Al-Aly, MD, spoke with Medscape about his team’s findings, what we know — and don’t — about long COVID, and what it means for physicians treating patients with the condition.

Police water cannons are yet again turned on the scientists. Today an estimated 10,000 peaceful protestors in the Hague, are demonstrating against Dutch government subsidies to the fossil fuel industry, totalling at least 37.5 billion euros a year.

Labor Day reminder: If the min wage increased at the rate of inflation & productivity since 1960 it'd be $26 today—not $7.25. Meaning—billionaires & corps have stolen at least $19/hour from working Americans for 60 years.

That’s generational theft from the working class to keep people in poverty.

We don't suffer a lack of resources—but an excess of greed.

Donald Trump selling assets like Mar-a-Lago to a shell company owned by his oldest son is exactly what innocent people do

Trump isn’t a flight risk

He’s a flight guarantee.

It ain't the flu, folks: flu test positivity is currently at 0.87% but COVID test positivity is currently at 13.4%. If you have symptoms of a respiratory infection, kindly test yourself for COVID and wear a mask at least until the symptoms resolve. Please and thank you.

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich, not the poor.

The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year.

The United States literally has a yacht tax deduction.
