Have you noticed that it always seems to rain when people get their umbrellas out?
Have you noticed that flu season starts after the vaccines are given out?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Flu shots are given before flu season on purpose. The CDC advises getting vaccinated in September or October, ideally by the end of October, because it takes about two weeks after vaccination for protective antibodies to develop. cdc.gov/flu/vaccines/v…

“This spring, the U.S. military faced a similar dilemma in the Middle East. According to a Reuters report that cited Pentagon documents, U.S. forces used Starshield to pilot their drones for strikes against Iran. When SpaceX found out, it raised the price for Starshield service in that region from roughly $5,000 per terminal per month to $25,000. The Pentagon agreed to pay.
In Ukraine, Musk could be attempting a similar upsell.”

NEWS: Trump admin officials want US companies to accept the Russian diesel currently crossing the Atlantic.
But American firms want nothing to do with it. They’re very scared of the legal and reputational risk, industry sources tell me and @jstein_sun

EL-SAYED to TRUMP: I will go through a metal detector if you will sit for a lie detector. My first question, Epstein. Second question, did you win the 2020 election? I will go through a metal detector every day if you sit through a lie detector one time.

So the racist "joke" is that Mexicans are scary? This is what your tax dollars are funding.

This kind of rhetoric has no place in American politics. Many of the people who founded this country came here specifically to escape this kind of intolerance. Reject people who say this and leave their prejudice in the dustbin of history where it belongs.

I’ve mostly stayed away from politics on this stupid add, but we all need to call this out. It’s blatantly racist. It is disgusting. Our politics don’t need to be like this. It’s horrible. This stuff can’t be accepted. We have to do better. This is about basic human decency.
Sen. @tedcruz (R-TX) says that if U.S. Sen. candidate Abdul El-Sayed (D-MI) is elected into the Senate and is placed in the Senate Intelligence Committee, "there is a very real risk that Americans will die as a result."

Curiosidad: Este AR-15 incautado en #Colombia tiene un lower S&W M&P 15... que no es tal.
Los marcajes, aunque parecidos, son erróneos. Es una versión pirata de uno de los rifles mas baratos en el mercado civil norteamericano.
🚨BREAKING NEWS | Five suspected members of the Édgar Madrid Benjumea substructure were arrested in the act in a rural area of Puerto Wilches, #Santander, by troops from the #QuintaBrigada of @Ejercito_Div2 and @PoliciaColombia.

It's infuriating that this wasn't the normalized approach for like 5-10 yrs.
Just forced to watch the press/pundits pretend to take incoherent "policies" seriously, even auto-paraphrasing Trump remarks as if we dont already know he's clueless and winging it. ENOUGH. FINALLY.
Abdul El-Sayed: “We are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a fool”

Forgot how beefy the CLA is on Lockheed Martin's NGSRI (LM's pitch to succeed the Stinger). The faceted seeker apertures are an interesting design feature.

Imagine being so unlikeable (Vivek Ramaswamy) that your own 8th grade teacher protests you

1. you can’t be denied for preexisting conditions
2. no lifetime caps on your insurance plans.
3. Keep your kids in your plan until age 26.
Thank Obama for all of that.
Thank the GOP for rolling back the subsidies for the ACA.

Ramaswamy may have pulled his horrible ad featuring Amy Acton's mother, but it doesn’t erase that he publicly punished Acton for the horrible cards she was dealt, which is parents who provided an unsafe, unstable home. His moral compass does not exist and he’s unfit to lead Ohio.

When it was reported he expressed this privately during the first term, I asked him whether he said it. He wouldn’t fess up. And his aides screamed for us to get out of the Oval. He’s just letting the Klan talk rip now.

Wait, after all these racist attacks on Abdul, it's Mike Rogers who has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood!? That's wild, man.
