The Biloxi VA put up a rainbow flag so naturally the entire state is fixin to don the robes and white hoods to attack *checks notes*... disabled veterans.
From the VA:

"VA takes care of more than 1 million Veterans who identify as LGBTQ. Gay and bisexual Veterans face increased health risks and unique challenges  in accessing quality health care."
Additionally, a Vietnam Era Veteran, Gilbert Baker, designed the LGBTQ flag.

Currently WLOX and WXXV in Biloxi are covering this story.

I'm calling on all our Gulf Coast allies to mobilize to support the Biloxi VA, and reject the attacks on our veterans.
I grew up in south Mississippi, and a lot of veterans in the Florida panhandle use the Biloxi VA because there's no healthcare infrastructure here for them.

I'm proud of the VA standing its ground in the face of bigotry and threats.

#BiloxiPride #BiloxiProud #Pride
The flag stays. @RepEzell can leave any time. Image

If you're wondering how much money the state has allocated to kidnapping and trafficking, it's in the contract:

$10 million

Only two storms on record have ever made significant southward movement in the Gulf of Mexico:

Fern (1971), which skimmed the coastline post-landfall, and;

Hurricane Laurie (1969).

1969 was an El Nino year & forecasters say most similar to conditions to today..

Continued.. Image
Laurie was the only one to move southward in the open Gulf, reaching 26.53* North before turning southward, making landfall at 18.35* North - a total southward distance of about 8 degrees. Image
Arlene reached about 28* north and is currently on track to move southward to 23.6* North before turning eastward, for total southward motion of about 5 degrees.

While Laurie and Arlene formed and moved in different parts of the Gulf (which, yes, matters)... Image

I built Florida's official COVID19 dashboard from scratch. Then I built the better one, and the national database for COVID in schools (with help from Google).

To make THIS one happen, I'm gonna need your help:

DeSasterTracker.com

Here's what I need (a thread)... Image
1. Links/lists to all ongoing lawsuits against the state of Florida under the umbrella of "culture wars."

That includes:
Voting rights
Human/migrant trafficking
Civil rights (e.g. abortion, LGBT)
Retaliation, 1A (e.g. disney, me, @AndrewWarrenFL)
Business suits, etc.
2. Help with tracking travel, especially after #DeSaster passed a law to hide his travel, including requests for past travel. If you have records obtained from public sources or PRRs, that would help.

We have his official jet tracker but that's only one piece.

Ask the families of those who died from COVID because he lied about the numbers.
Ask the orphans who lost their parents because he lied about the vaccines.
Ask the innocent people he tortured for fun in Gitmo
Ask the trans kids forced to live in bodies they do not recognize.
Ask the parents of trans kids who fear the state will take their children.
Ask the teachers who died when schools reopened and when bullets sprayed the walls, after he cut their pay and demanded they come into work strapped
Ask the workers who had no paid leave, who were forced to make their kids sick by putting them in school or they'd lose their measly unemployment.
Ask the families he kidnapped and trafficked from Texas.
Ask the sick, the dying, the poor.

Just got in a family debate and want your input.

There isn't necessarily a right or wrong answer, but I'm interested in how you vote and what your reasons are.

If you could only house/feed one homeless person(s) from the listed below, which of these would it be and why?
I will say I started torn of course but started with a different option than what I ended up with after discussion and debate. I'll wait to chime in on where I ended up and why until the poll is closed
If you're offended by the idea that any of these are more/less deserving, then direct your anger at the GOP, who are currently threatening to sabotage our economic stability if major cuts to social safety nets to the above groups are not made to cover tax cuts for the rich.
