how is it possible for one to buy such a property and have nothing discovered about all of these problems before signing the sale contract?

It’s nice to know that there are still checks on this regime’s contempt for expertise, scientific consensus, and the very idea that government should serve the public good. But it never should have come this far. Stupid people with deranged, counterfactual opinions should be put in such decision making positions in the first place.

"...Health and Human Services spokesman Andrew Nixon wrote in a statement to NPR."

If my name was Nixon, I probably wouldn't pursue politics as a profession.

Wookiee Monster's avatar

If my name were Nixon, I’d change it.

"Name?"

"John Dillinger"

"Really?"

"well, I had to change it from something else."

"What?"

"Nixon."

"I understand."

My other option was Charles Manson.

Ya know, I’d be more impressed to see RFK eat a Twinkie that big than fake-wrestle it.

JFK Jr. only eats healthy food. Like roadkill.

It wasn’t AI this time?

Well it would be a damn shame if an Iranian missile killed two birds with one launch.

Jesus Christ! These Ai thingies keep multiplying and mating and spawning.

Now Bobby Jr. has his own rasslin' reel? Of course he does.

I do not even want to ask what is next. Because why bother? Whatever it is will be stupider and stupider.

With this there is no bottom, there is no stupidest thing, there is no last stupid standing, there is no numero uno stupid. Just deeper and deeper and spiraling wildly into the chaotic abyss of STUPID.

From my personal experience back in 2016:

My wife dying of cancer made me sad. But I will always be proud of how she actually worked with a very tiny lobbying group here in Colorado devoted to the cause of MORE REAL SCIENCE in our medical regulatory apparatus. Even though weak from cancer treatment she trudged to CO state committee hearings to point out that fucking homepoathic and naturopathic woo, tarot cards, energy manipulation, smudge sticks, spirit enemas, irrational herbs etc etc were BAD MEDICINE that kill people while draining their bank accounts. Of course she encountered plenty of anti vax nonsense.

Though the antivax crap angered her greatly she often also had some ire for the REAL DOCTORS who failed to show up to help give testimony about the effectiveness of vaccination as a public policy goal. She was an informed and knowledgeable citizen voicing her opinion to help persuade our legislature. What she really wanted and needed was some concerned and enthusiastic MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS showing up for the hearing and backing her up.

The naturopaths and woo merchants often smugly noted how many of them were lined up to lobby the legislature and how few doctors and scientists bothered to make an appearance to support vaccinations. Sometimes my beloved soul mate had to stand alone in that room against the hordes of sneering woo merchants.

So fuck actual US senators who are actual doctors and still let Bobby Jr. take the reins at HHS. He didn't have a secret agenda about vaccines. His goals were long held and very publicly stated. All the evidence was right there in front of them and they didn't have the balls needed to say 'NO'.

Condolences on your wife’s passing.

From what I’ve seen from doctors on social media, they never realized they’d need to get involved politically over something like vaccines.

They didn’t realize debates they had that were usually settled by research would turn into something very political.

Why, it's almost as if baseless, homicidal bullshit is unpopular.

I've always preferred Ding-Dongs, myself. Ho-Hos are also rather tasty.

Yeah, I was a Ding Dong fiend in high school, as I recollect.

TOOLSI lying her butt off today as well!

Warner: The president said he was shocked that the Iranians had moved to take over the strait of hormuz.

Gabbard: I’m not aware of those remarks

Warner: What about when he said he was surprised that Iran struck the adjacent gulf states.

Gabbard: I’m not aware of those remarks

Technically, “I can’t recall” isn’t lying, which is why it’s used so often by people during testimonies to avoid perjury.

Wookiee Monster's avatar

It is lying if you actually do remember. It’s just that it’s virtually impossible to prove it.

HarryButtle, degenerate artist's avatar

Why doesn't Warner have a big ol' whiteboard behind him with Stinky's quotes on it for Tulsi to see?

Director of national intelligence is not aware of presidents remarks reported in press.

Sure Jan.

Wookiee Monster's avatar

There’s not much intelligence involved in her job.

gene108's avatar

Like Speaker Mike Johnson, she’s too busy to keep up with the news of the day.

They appear to be starting to fall. All the crazy shit that they’ve done with a bulldozer will take years to repair. Sad that so many will be harmed in the process.

And when it doesn't get fixed in a week, the morons will get mad at the Democrats and put the fascists right back in power. 😑

"M"'s avatar

That's why we must be TIRELESS in not just outvoting the morons, but

- reminding people that they have the power to.imagine better AND

- keeping the rights we do have to vote them out

Did you know there's a provision in the voter suppression bill they deliberately erroneously named the SAVE Act to make it go into effect immediately, before the midterms (and no, that's not normal) so that Americans will not have the power to vote this idiocy out??
