Waiting for science twitter to squash this one:

Ventilation system allegedly “kills 99.9% of COVID-19 within 10 minutes.” @CT_Bergstrom

NOTE:
Masks are required in public in Phoenix
There were almost no masks present at #TulsaTrumpRally
We can be 99.0% certain that Trump will not wear a mask, defying the Phoenix city council ordinance.

OH that they could arrest him for that.

I'm OK that this repro of church YT clip because standing alone that clip is crap/disinformation
"Just when you think things can’t get any creepier comes the church hosting President Trump’s Arizona visit with a too-good-to-be-true technology that kills COVID-19. "

Reading this, I flashed to the 80s & the Reagan-era effort to push barefoot women back into the kitchen.

"Too Late for Prince Charming"
Crappy research (mid-80s) claimed college-educated women 40+ had a greater chance dying in a terrorist attack than getting married.

1991: Backlash: The Undeclared War Against American Women
Susan Faludi
Opened my eyes to two-steps-forward/one-step-back “progress.”

Who encouraged the backlash? Right wingers like Limbaugh et al, including Rupert Murdoch (by July 1985, he owned 50% of Fox Filmed Entertainment) Image
One key difference between Reagan Republicans and Trump Republicans: today’s GOP has *declared* war on more than half the country:
all people of color
immigrants
the Jewish community
the LGBTQ community
women … and
non-evangelical “Christians.”

Who else?

According to @nytimes analysis, most public schools with large J.R.O.T.C. enrollment numbers are in low-income neighborhoods where students are primarily nonwhite. @ByMikeBaker et al

Mandatory enrollment violates Pentagon policy, supposedly.

“parents in some cities say their children are being forced to put on military uniforms, obey a chain of command and recite patriotic declarations in classes they never wanted to take.”

This data point is meaningless without knowing % of schools that offer JROTC, @ByMikeBaker

“The Army says 44 percent of all soldiers who entered its ranks in recent years came from a school that offered J.R.O.T.C.”

I am very Very tired of he-said, she-said reporting. Rather than tell us that Republicans think there is insufficient kerning (what?) ... why not tell us what the law/reg says? Why not tell us HOW this board can reject a ballot initiative?
detroitnews.com/story/news/loc…
🧵
Why not LINK to the document, @detroitnews?

Reproductive Freedom for All

I challenge anyone to find a problem with kerning, although by state requirements it is incredibly hard to read.

You don't even SHOW us the alleged hard-to-read section(s), @detroitnews! I expect such cavalier reporting from national orgs, which is why I went local.

What’s the rhetorical fallacy for “look over there”? Red herring? It’s GOP land’s only ‘defense’ of Trump’s theft (and compromised intelligence).

House/Jim Jordan: 236.9K
Benny: 790.9K
Alex: 210.4K
Breanna: 98.7K
And @ByronYork?
Do you have a better way to show, after the fact, that highly classified docs were stuck in a box with personal mementos? One that would make it clear to a judge that a crime had occurred? Note the docs aren’t visible, just their classification.

Twist the truth much, @JudiciaryGOP?

Perhaps some books need to be read after having life experience.

I have always been biased towards words. News via magazine and newspaper not television or even radio. So I can imagine having raced through Amusing Ourselves To Death, nodding my head.

But I’m re-reading it decades later.

I have questions: Was the requirement to own land in order to vote a proxy for literacy? Am I in error thinking that most 19th century Americans were illiterate? Who let women go to school?

The world that Postman paints as one of reason over passion feels like one dominated by White male privilege. Speeches were printed in full in newspapers. And readers had to follow current events to understand the arguments.

I am late to those who have been tracing the deaths of men associated with sexual predator (and assumed blackmailer) Jeffrey Epstein.
But this? How could there be no blood on the scene if the man shot himself with a shotgun??

Mark Middleton died 07 May 2022. Death ruled suicide. He was an Arkansas businessman who reportedly introduced Epstein to Bill Clinton.

heavy.com/news/mark-midd…
Now Steven Hoffenberg, a businessman who served 18 years in prison and who was “one of Jeffrey Epstein's close friends,” has been found dead in his Connecticut apartment. Hoffenberg hired Epstein in the ‘80s. Cause of death UK.

Epstein died via hanging in August 2019.
