Also, the NRA toting republicans I know are having an absolute MELTDOWN over the NRA thing. Legit MELT. DOWNS. This is so, so glorious.
I hope Meghan McCain is crying into her Cheerios.

dc2london I figured there was a reason but I also didn't know how long these things took in the courts. My anxiety is starting to rise because I live around deranged gun nuts and they already had one open carry protest nearby over a statue and threatened a county judge so bad he was moved to a safe house. We are almost completely healthy again. No more tiredness or heart racing issues. I have felt so much better this week. My daughter is still having to take it easy to not trigger an asthma attack but I think we are mostly out of the woods. I gave plasma so it was cool to give back a little.

I hope NYAG James issued a cease and desist order so the officially bankrupt NRA can't solicit donations to drag out this legal fight

Rep Green from Tennessee just asked the chairman to audit all hospitals to see how much extra money they are getting for each COVID death and to see if all COVID deaths were fr COVID......in a hearing on Opening Schools during COVID.

Now he is complaining that the federal government has no right to tell Tennessee to not open their schools. Also he thinks the Risk Benefit ratio for sending back to school is low enough to send kids back to school.

Mr Green is worried about federal interference in local school decisions but says nothing when 45* threatens schools' funding if they don't do what he wants

Gee, it's great that all the schools that have opened up already haven't had cases in their early days of opening... oh wait.

Would anyone be interested in a thread to talk about Beirut? I’m in a deep news spiral and kind of feel like the level of coverage of something this catastrophic is... off.

I've found decent coverage in WaPo and NYT but admittedly I haven't ventured too far outside of those because the photos and video from the scene are a lot to stomach. But by all means, IMO, you should make a thread.

My fixer brain just wants to find answers even though the rational part knows it can’t be undone.

My fixer brain just wants to find answers even though the rational part knows it can’t be undone. MH showed me an infrared video that looks like its an attack. It obviously could be faked. The whole thing is just mind blowing. I don’t know why it’s not getting more coverage.

I can't wait to hear from Shann.on W.atts this weekend. She's been screaming about the corruption within the NRA for years and it took until 2017 for anyone to do something about it. She's part pissed it took this long, part smug that she's finally right. And IMO she's fully justified in both.
PDQ bc I'll probably poof this. I'm going to be paranoid about my work for a while right now.
