Doesn’t seem flustered. There’s no compelling evidence of Joe being involved in Hunter’s shady business dealings. Maybe put the same energy into Jared Kushner’s influence peddling and see what you find?
BREAKING: Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman appears flustered after listening to Devon Archer’s testimony as he tries covering for Biden family lies. Reporter: “Doesn't it contradict the president's statements that he never talked to Hunter’s business associates?” Goldman: “I don't know what his comment is and if, if we're gonna, well, I don't, I don't think that's what he said. He never said that he has never spoken to anyone…” Biggest clown award in Congress goes to Dan Goldman 🤡

Wrong. You think lower-income people are all tax cheaters? Most take the standard deduction and have nothing to hide. The IRS is going after wealthy people and businesses that may be overestimating their itemized deductions.
Republicans are still trying to get rid of those 87,000 IRS agents who are going to audit everyone into oblivion. Believe me when I tell you, no one that has money is going to have a problem with an audit. They have tax attorneys and accountants whose only job is to make sure they pay as little as possible using legal means. The people that will suffer are those who are middle class who make just enough to file but not enough to have some rich attorney comb through their returns. That's who Biden wants to screw over to make sure Zelenskyy can get more and more money!

This is simply horrific. I hope there will be a large protest outside the event.

Eric and Lara Trump and various MAGA leaders are doing an event at the Trump Doral alongside a rabid antisemite who claims Jews routinely torture and murder children and eat their hearts, very bad stuff mediamatters.org/eric-trump/…

UPDATE: In the region including NY State, older XBB variants circulating since December are about 4/5 of cases. Newer XBB variants comprise 1/5 and growing. XBB 1.16 = 9% of new cases in the region (vs 5% last week). XBB 1.9.1 = 6%, and a few others are also gaining steam.

While XBB1.16 is currently circulating widely in India, they haven't seen an increase in hospitalization so there is no reason for alarm in the US. But there may be an uptick in cases here over the next couple of months. Hopefully, cases remain mild and our immunity wall endures.

Why are so many people “going postal”? We are living in a sea of guns and mental illness.

If armed bank security guards can’t keep people safe, why would we expect armed math teachers to fare any better?

I think I’m tripping. WWOZ is playing old Pink Floyd tracks right now.

The Covid bivalent vaccine booster works better than expected. I've reviewed the cumulative data erictopol.substack.com/p/the… That's in contrast to a @NEJM essay today and 2 lab studies that used a pseudovirus assay without assessing the XBB variants

BIG update on COVID variants: XBB is now making up 50% of new cases in the region that includes New York State. Up from 33% last week! And a lot of people I know are currently infected. #COVID19 #variants

I got Covid for the second time on Tuesday. Much milder this time. Why? I can’t say for sure, but I was boosted 6 weeks ago and started Paxlovid within 24 hours. Last time it had been >6 months since my booster and I waited 4 days to start Paxlovid.

Frustrated to report that I have Covid...again. Feel okay so far--just fatigue and scratchy throat--and hope to start on Paxlovid by the end of the day. I had my third booster shot (the bivalent Moderna) 6 weeks ago; had a previous booster in early July; and had Covid in April.

I expect to be protected from severe illness, but we need the next generation of vaccines to prevent reinfections or they will continue. We don't know the long-term consequences of that, but they may not be good. #intranasalvaccines #universalvax #COVID19
