Congress voted against funding a cure for cancer just to block a win for Biden

As a doctor, and as someone who has watched my loved ones battle cancer, the recent news of Congress voting against funding a cure for cancer solely to block a win for Biden is beyond infuriating. The sheer callousness and cruelty displayed by some members of Congress is appalling. The fact that some politicians would prioritize petty political gains over the health and well-being of countless Americans is a stark reminder of the broken system that currently governs our country.

It is disheartening to see that some Republicans, in their quest to undermine Biden’s administration, would stoop to such lows. The idea that funding for cancer research and treatment was shot down simply to prevent the opposition party from achieving a victory is a testament to the toxic and divisive nature of current political discourse.… Continue reading

This congresswoman was born and raised in Ukraine. She just voted against aid for her homeland

Being born and raised in Ukraine, one would naturally assume that a congresswoman with such a background would prioritize aid for her homeland. However, in a surprising turn of events, this congresswoman, who is a Republican, recently voted against aid for Ukraine. This decision raises eyebrows and sparks a wave of disappointment and outrage among many individuals, both in her district and beyond.

She claims that U.S. border security should be a bigger priority, aligning herself with conservative House Republicans and her deeply conservative central Indiana congressional district. However, it is important to note that her party also voted against border security funding.… Continue reading

Barr, who said Trump shouldn’t be near Oval Office, says he will vote for him in 2024

As I process the recent news about Bill Barr, who once boldly stated that Trump should not be near the Oval Office, but has since announced his intention to vote for him in 2024, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of disillusionment and disgust. It boggles the mind how someone who was once in a position of power and authority could betray their own principles and cave to party loyalty in such a blatant and shameless manner.

It seems that Barr, like many other spineless politicians, is willing to sacrifice his integrity and moral compass for the sake of political expediency.… Continue reading

‘They are calling her terrible names!’ Trump jumps to defense of Aileen Cannon

It never fails to amaze me how quickly the tables can turn in politics. Just when you think you’ve seen it all, a headline like “‘They are calling her terrible names!’ Trump jumps to defense of Aileen Cannon” pops up, and you’re left scratching your head in disbelief. The irony of Trump, a man known for his relentless name-calling and insults, rushing to the defense of a judge is almost comical. It’s like the pot calling the kettle black, only in this case, the pot is a deeply flawed and hypocritical former president.

Aileen Cannon, the judge at the center of this controversy, has found herself under fire for her alleged bias and lack of qualifications.… Continue reading

Texas medical panel won’t provide list of exceptions to abortion ban

As a woman living in Texas, the recent news about the Texas medical panel refusing to provide a list of exceptions to the abortion ban has left me feeling disheartened and frustrated. Hearing about the experience of a couple in Tennessee who lost their baby at 20 weeks due to complications, and the stringent process they had to go through in case of a medical emergency, highlights the heart-wrenching reality that many women face.

The vague guidelines issued by the Texas medical panel regarding exceptions to the abortion ban, advising doctors to meticulously document their decision-making process but providing few specifics, only adds to the confusion and distress for women seeking critical medical care.… Continue reading

Fani Willis ruling in Donald Trump case outrages MAGA

I can’t help but shake my head at the constant state of outrage that seems to be the default setting for MAGA supporters. It’s like they wake up in the morning, see a rainbow, and immediately fly into a frenzy of anger. I mean, seriously, what doesn’t outrage these people? The fact that Trump has a laundry list of despicable actions and behaviors that they seem perfectly fine with, but a district attorney doing her job to hold him accountable sends them into a tailspin is beyond comprehension.

The recent ruling by Fani Willis in the Donald Trump case has sent shockwaves through the MAGA community, with their outrage reaching new heights.… Continue reading

“Can’t make it up”: Experts say transcript shows special counsel Robert Hur “lied” about Biden

Hur’s repeated instances of claiming “I don’t recall” or “I don’t remember” during the investigation and report from last year are utterly hypocritical considering his audacity to question Biden’s memory. The sheer nerve of his actions is truly appalling. The fact that he conveniently forgot to mention Biden’s photographic memory in his report exposes his dishonesty and political agenda. Now, with Republicans demanding the release of recordings and the uncomfortable spotlight shining on their embarrassing performance, the truth is slowly coming to light.

It’s disheartening to see the lengths to which individuals like Hur will go to push their political narratives at the expense of truth and integrity.… Continue reading

Matt Gaetz’s Questioning of Hunter Biden Backfires Spectacularly

Matt Gaetz’s recent questioning of Hunter Biden can only be described as a total disaster. The sheer audacity and lack of self-awareness displayed by Gaetz is truly mind-boggling. Asking Hunter if he was on drugs while serving on the Burisma board was not only inappropriate but also hypocritical coming from someone with a well-known history of drug use and inappropriate behavior.

The way that Hunter Biden calmly and confidently shut down Gaetz’s line of questioning was nothing short of impressive. With grace and composure, Hunter made it clear that he has been open about his struggles with addiction and his journey to recovery.… Continue reading

Hamas chief Haniyeh calls on Arabs to storm al-Aqsa on Ramadan

As I read about the recent call from Hamas chief Haniyeh urging Arabs to storm al-Aqsa during Ramadan, I can’t help but feel a sense of incredulity and frustration. Here we have a man comfortably living in a palace in Qatar, far removed from the dangers and struggles of those he purports to speak for, goading others to put their lives on the line while he watches from a safe distance. It begs the question, why doesn’t he lead the charge himself if he truly believes in the cause he champions?

Simultaneously, I find it disturbing that a religious site like al-Aqsa is being used as a pawn in a political game.… Continue reading

Alejandro Mayorkas: House votes to impeach homeland security secretary

The recent news of the House voting to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has left me feeling frustrated and disillusioned with the state of our political system. While this impeachment proceeding may be dead on arrival in the Senate, as it would require a 2/3 vote to actually remove Mayorkas from office, it raises some important questions about the motivations and integrity of certain politicians.

Opponents of Mayorkas have accused him of not living up to his oath of office by failing to do more to secure the border. However, it’s hard to take these accusations seriously when we consider the actions of Republicans who voted “no” on the impeachment and conviction of former President Trump.… Continue reading
