As an observer of the political landscape, something that has always concerned me about former President Donald Trump is his undeniable degradation in physical and mental health over the years. This was evident during his presidency and, if anything, it has only gotten worse since then. The recent viral video of Trump slurring his words during a rally indeed raises many questions about his wellbeing and his capacity to fulfill any future leadership roles.
Trump supporters, on the other hand, seem to prefer turning a blind eye to this issue, even in the face of clear deterioration. His followers still laud his actions and behavior, calling them strokes of genius no matter how questionable they may seem.… Continue reading
Midwife fined $300,000 for falsifying the vaccine records of hundreds of school-aged children.
It’s truly astonishing and disheartening to see the lengths that some individuals will go to undermine public health and endanger the lives of others. The recent case of a midwife fined $300,000 for falsifying vaccine records of hundreds of school-aged children is a prime example of this alarming trend.
We must address the issue of vaccine hesitancy and the danger it poses to our communities. The comments surrounding this headline highlight the frustration and anger that many people feel towards anti-vaxxers who prioritize their own misguided beliefs over the wellbeing of others.… Continue reading
Bank of America Sends Warning Letters to Employees Not Going Into Offices
As I sat down to write this article, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of frustration, sadness, and disbelief. The headline “Bank of America sends warning letters to employees not going into offices” highlights a growing issue in our society – the battle between remote work and returning to the office. This issue has far-reaching consequences for both employees and employers, and it’s one that cannot be ignored.
It’s no secret that the pandemic has reshaped the way we work. Companies worldwide were forced to adapt and implement remote work policies, and for many employees, it was a much-needed change.… Continue reading
I have been closely following the recent news regarding the Biden administration’s decision to forgive $4.9 billion in student debt for 73,600 borrowers. As someone who recently paid off their own student loans, I have mixed feelings about this topic. However, after reflecting on the various comments and discussions surrounding this issue, I have come to a clearer understanding of the importance of this decision and its impact on our economy and society.
One recurring sentiment that stood out to me was the idea that the government is not a business. Many commenters emphasized that the government’s role is to serve the interests of its citizens and ensure the stability of the country.… Continue reading
Reflecting on recent global events, my mind can’t escape the troubled relationship between Israel and Palestine. This manifestation of conflicts, discrimination, and repression has become the new normal in this region. As an American citizen observing from afar, I’m often naively hopeful for signs of the cessation of these conflicts. And recently, these hopes were further raised by the statement made by Senator Bernie Sanders: “If Netanyahu says no to a Palestinian state, the US must say no to Netanyahu.” This proclamation certainly spurred a fermentation of thoughts in my mind which I’ll share in the rawest form.
I confess that I am not an ardent admirer of Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, the incumbent permanent representative of Israel.… Continue reading
Proud Boys member gets six years in prison for Capitol riot after insulting judge
I can’t help but shake my head at the audacity and lack of remorse displayed by Marc Bru, a member of the Proud Boys, during his sentencing for his participation in the Capitol riot. Bru, who was handcuffed and shackled, boldly proclaimed, “You can give me 100 years and I’d do it all over again.” These words not only reflect his defiance towards the legal system but also his belief that he will be pardoned within a year.
It is truly disheartening to witness someone who actively participated in an armed insurrection against democracy show no remorse for their actions.… Continue reading
So you think Texas wants to secede. Here is how that will/won’t work.
Living in Texas, I have heard the talk and rumors about secession for years. It seems to pop up every time there is a Democrat in the White House, as if Texans only want to go their separate way when it suits their political agenda. But let’s be realistic here, secession is not a viable option for Texas, and anyone claiming otherwise is either delusional or trying to provoke a response.
Firstly, there is no realistic mechanism for Texas to secede from the United States. The current Texas government won’t even consider putting it on the ballot for consideration, knowing that it would be a dumpster fire of epic proportions.… Continue reading
As I read the headline “New York City plans to wipe out $2 billion in medical debt for 500,000 residents,” a rush of emotions and thoughts flood my mind. This is not just an ordinary news story; it is a beacon of hope and a call for change. The fact that a city is taking such a bold step to alleviate the burden of medical debt speaks volumes about the brokenness of our healthcare system and the urgent need for reform.
Medical debt, a haunting specter that looms over the lives of millions of Americans, is not a result of personal irresponsibility or choice.… Continue reading
The White House has always been a symbol of power and authority. It represents the highest level of leadership and integrity in our nation. So, when I came across the headline “The White House has its own pharmacy—and, boy, was it shady under Trump”, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of shock and disappointment. How could such a revered institution be involved in something so questionable?
As I delved into the article, I was confronted with revelations that left me speechless. The White House pharmacy, operated by the White House Medical Unit, was not staffed by licensed pharmacists or pharmacy support staff.… Continue reading
Two Men Clocked Going 199 mph While Street Racing on Florida Turnpike, Deputies Say
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read the headline: “Two Men Clocked Going 199 mph While Street Racing on Florida Turnpike, Deputies Say.” It’s hard to fathom the audacity and recklessness of individuals who would engage in such dangerous behavior on a public road. The sheer speed alone is mind-boggling, but when you pair it with the fact that they were racing each other, it becomes all the more horrifying.
From the descriptions provided in the comments, it seems that these two men, or rather boys, had some rather unique hairstyles that caught the attention of many.… Continue reading
