From those radical Marxists at the Cato Institute: Want to Solve the Border Crisis? Legalize Immigration Migrants aren’t the problem and the country is not “overwhelmed.” Nativist politicians and impossible barriers to legal entry caused (and maintain) the chaos.

Re: The Judges Must Have Forgotten to Check Her Nether Regions....
I went out to dinner Saturday night and for the first time ate barramundi. It was really, really good, so I went to the Fount of Knowledge to read up on it. I'll just leave this here for no reason in particular: At the start of the monsoon, males migrate downriver to meet females, which lay very lar...

Re: Getting vaccinated
As I understand it, the current thinking is that in the presence of not-well-understood genetic factors, certain infections may trigger an overly aggressive immune response, which goes on to destroy the islet cells in the pancreas. My son has been on an insulin pump for over 15 years now, currently ...

Re: Getting vaccinated
Yes, the rebound/relapse was much less severe (just sneezing and a sporadic cough) and only lasted a couple of days. As for chickenpox and shingles, my son was perhaps the last kid in America who didn't get the vaccine, having gotten chicken pox "naturally" just before the vaccine became mandatory f...

Re: Getting vaccinated
I quoted your post Andy because while waiting for my discharge papers in the ER I was googling on my phone and found this article about a recent study at Brigham on the phenomenon of Paxlovid rebound, which occurs in 20% of patients who take the drug. I thought you’d be interested. https://www.mass...

The old joke was "There's no news in Pravda and no truth in Izvestia."Bicycle Bill wrote: ↑Mon Feb 12, 2024 7:21 am* — for those of you who weren't aware of it, 'Pravda' is the Russian word for 'Truth' and was the name of the official newspaper of the Communist party back in the days of the USSR.

Re: Tucker Carson is to air an interview with Vladimir Putin
Outraged? Hardly. Plenty of mockery, though. Carlson is just doing what he's always done as a loudspeaker for Putin's propaganda. But liberty doesn't even read (and/or doesn't understand) the articles he posts. He just saw that this one mentioned Jane Fonda and it triggered some Pavlovian response i...

Re: You really, really, REALLY couldn't make this shit up
So let me get this straight:
The Border CrisisTM is such a grave national security emergency that the Republicans will refuse to do anything about it until sometime in 2025, and then only if Donald Trump is president. Is that about right?

Re: Israel at War
It is not genocide, as Netanyahu and his co-conspirators are not trying to eliminate the Palestinian people as a whole (or at least that's not their stated intention). However, what is going on in Gaza clearly qualifies as war crimes and probably crimes against humanity.
