Why Pelvic Mesh caused so much damage? Manufacturers, Scientists & Doctors NEVER Tested the Mesh in a women's pelvic organ system before receiving Clearances. Women WERE the Lab Rats. The 1st viable study came 5 years after the #MeshCraze began! #InformedConsent Hardly!

I’m just curious why it’s age appropriate for kids k-5 to learn about hiding under desks and not that sometimes people have two dads.

REMINDER: As Wayne LaPierre suggests bringing more guns inside schools, there are currently NO guns allowed at the NRA Convention. For safety reasons.

After over three decades of covering Russia, I leave in despair cnn.com/2022/03/11/europe/le…
7 years ago, Boris Nemtsov, the most popular of Russian oppo leaders, was gunned down on a Moscow bridge, the day before he was to lead a "march for peace" protesting Putin's first war in Ukraine. The impact of that murder echoes today...

BREAKING: The U.S. Senate passes a bill to stop Trump-appointed Postmaster Louis DeJoy from cutting service days, mandating delivery 6 days a week, and ending the Bush-era “poison pill” legislation that was bankrupting the Postal Service. RT IF YOU THINK THAT THIS IS GREAT NEWS!

If your house is worth $400,000, and you tell the tax authorities it's worth $75,000 but then tell a bank it's worth $2.5 million, you would go to prison for fraud. Even if no one "flipped" on you. 3300% is not a mistake. It's intentional. Could someone please tell Alvin Bragg?

The Murder of Ahmaud Arbery: All you need to understand how ludicrous the defense is, is to imagine a Black person making a citizen’s arrest of a white person jogging thru their neighborhood & then cornering them with a car & shooting them because they didn’t want to talk.
