So the Asst AG who signed off on the torture memos now declared the FDA has no right to regulate the drugs used in lethal injection.
Y'all.

Amazing. I'm curious to hear what happens after the paleontology community examines his findings.His listed co-authors are some of the biggest names for the KT extinction. It gives him a lot of clout. Walter Alvarez is like the OG of KT impact. He's also a really cool guy, and he knows his science. I want to read this paper when it comes out. One thing though, just because there are fossilized dinosaurs in his site, doesn't mean that there wasn't a decline in dinosaur life prior to the impact. You need more than one site to draw a conclusion of that magnitude. I love it when you talk paleontology!

Whoa Jim Scuitto just got into it with Tom Mcclintock about arming teachers.
Tom thinks its perfectly ok for his daughter who is a first grade teacher to have a conceal carry and have a loaded firearm in a classroom. And said we have armed guards at banks to protect our money, why not schools
Jim was all Look we can debate this but I dont want a gun in my kids classroom.
As an aside, I have never been in a bank that has a visible armed guard. the armored car guys? Yes. Bank employees? no. Maybe they are hanging out in the vault somewhere.

I loathe Susan Collins. Loathe. It would have been bad enough that she voted for him. But holding out until the last second and then giving a fucking LECTURE to the Senate moved her squarely to "irredeemable "

Just heard on CSPAN that they are pulling the election integrity and security part out of HR1 and sending it to the Senate as standalone legislation. So let's see Mitch's objection now

Last year in my kid's school district a cop assigned to a school accidentally discharged his gun. In the school. A cop. So, no, I don't want teachers showing up armed. Even with the best of intentions. MOAR GUNS is not the answer.

I hate this bitch so much that I rage-texted my ex-husband (who I also regularly want to throat punch) who just moved to Maine that if he doesn't help vote her out, I'm going to set his new house on fire. He might be a lying, cheating a-hole, but his one redeeming quality is he votes blue for everything. Seriously, I am so sick over these "laws". I just had a shitty ass pregnancy (that was very much wanted), that capped off with pre-e, a 31 hour labor that almost killed us both and an emergency c-section. FUCK these people and thinking that we're just vessels for babies when it was MY fucking life at stake, too.

How has Roberts ruled in lower courts on abortion restrictions?
I feel like he is a pretty anti-choice person, but it is established precedent.

The Met is cutting ties with the Sacklers over their role in the opioid crisis, per NYT.
This is the kind of bold statement we need.

Uuuhhhhhhh
Feinstein just had a weird exchange with an aide in front of a group of reporters after exiting a classified briefing.
After Feinstein said, “I do not know of any current threat from Iran,” the aide interjected and tried to correct her, saying, “I think it was an open question”

In Texas a black woman was shot 5 times and killed by a police over outstanding warrants. She was screaming that she was pregnant. She was not, but the officer didn’t know that - just shot her like it was nothing.
And then this man is incorrectly accused on being another man and the cops tried to arrest him on his own property in front of his kids. This video is really hard to watch.
