It's hard to think of an action more damaging to American greatness, or insulting to American freedom, than cutting off cancer research to punish a university for failing to align politically with the current government.

HUGE FLIP: Democrat John Ewing Jr. just turned Omaha blue—defeating the longest-serving GOP mayor in the country and becoming the city’s first Black mayor in history.
Yup. Close relative, gets 4th dose, gets really sick a month later but it isn't Covid so is cleared to go on holiday with his family. Collapses shortly after arrival. Diagnosed with: Sepsis. Endocarditis. Venous Thrombosis in both arms. ICU, then long weeks of treatment, then home with outpatient treatment for rest of his life because of thrombosis and endocarditis. Then he and his fully jabbed family members including young child, get Covid for real and all are really sick. But he won't allow …
The attitude of your relative is exactly why I don't think the jabbees should ever be able to sue. If anything, we #purebloods should sue for the shit they (govt apparatchiks, employers, clients, everyday morons, Demoncrats, RINOs, etc.) put US through! Due diligence was the responsibility of those who offered their shoulder. Do you mind my asking if your relatives are Democrats? And I am sorry for YOU and especially for the young child. Poor thing.
When the new MAGA Congress is seated I'm going to push for no mo' taxpayer-funded pensions for federal government workers. Then I'll start on the state.
I'm totally down with eliminating all special perks. Let them see what it's like to live in the private sector. The only exception to good healthcare I would make is for workers--lawyers, editors, word processors, clerks--on state Legislative Councils. The work is stultifying (writing, reading, interpreting, editing bills; the resolutions are more interesting--one can learn about one's sis and fellow state residents by reading them) and come session time, the hours are a bitch. One of the full-timers who'd retired came back for a session that I happened to work at and had a heart attack before it was over (2015; not jab related). They might be about the hardest of ALL govt. workers. So, I'm on the fence about them after doing two sessions for two different Legis Councils. At least in Texas session is every other year. In NM it's every year but not for as long. And btw, I did REAL public service. As a hiree for non-staff session work, I was sorely underpaid. In NM, it takes three months just to get trained, then depending on the year, 1 or 2 straight months of 7 days/week, 9-hour days, 15 minutes for lunch. If a special session is called, then the staff workers have to go into the same 7 days/week, 9-hours/day mode. And you have to work on bills for elected dunces that you loathe. I digress. A lot. Sorry.
Why aren’t the climate cultists up in arms about the explosion of AI and data centres, all guzzling colossal amounts of energy 24/7? Where’s the outrage over that?
It seems the only “carbon footprints” that matter are the ones left by ordinary people, not the billionaires in private jets or the technocrats building a global surveillance grid. Their consumption? Untouchable. Your heating, driving, and dinner? Public enemy number one.
Let’s call it what it is: the climate change narrative is the ul…
