That's good, but most of her fellow Rs voted against protecting birth control access. I think 8 total GOP voted in favor, 2 present and the rest against. |

Elections have consequences and if you want change you vote. And vote the way the Lincoln Project has outlined.

Well, lady I like Joe Biden so it wouldn’t be a problem being stranded with him. And while I’m not a big fan of AOC being stranded with her would be a million times better then being stranded with anyone associated with the Republicans and/or the religious right.
Although I have to say with AOC there would be some spirited debates about issues and how to achieve them so it might be more interesting being stranded with her then Joe Biden.

What? An attack on an officer on Good Friday? The attack at one of the blocked roadways to the Capitol. The officer killed was William Evans. *** Noah Green, the knife-wielding man killed after ramming his car into a checkpoint at the U.S. Capitol on Friday, was a troubled former college athlete whose life was disintegrating in the months leading up to a violent outburst that left one officer dead and another injured. On Friday afternoon, law enforcement officials said, Mr. Green, 25, drove a dark blue Nissan sedan from the Virginia suburbs and plowed into two police officers protecting the Capitol grounds. He then got out of the car brandishing a knife and lunged at officers. Police shot and killed him. www.nytimes.com/2021/04/05/us/politics/heres-what-we-know-about-the-man-behind-fridays-attack-on-capitol-hill.html |

dizzycheermom Thank you, the point you made just now was exactly the point I tried make in February about the spread through transmission regardless of vaccination status, which is why I wanted people who were not as up to date to realise why extra protection was necessary in addition to vaccination. I think that people already knew for a long time that breakthrough cases occurred but perhaps were unaware of the increase risk of infection for vaccinated people with Omicron. Omicron cases were confirmed in the UK in November and the US in December. Hindsight has shown us what has happened since. I guess my point is that I'm not sure what this point of this conversation is??? what point are you trying to make? I don't mean this in a negative way, but why are we discussing this now? Also it is important to note that people that have vaccinated are more likely to wear masks in public when numbers are high. So it is not spread AS OFTEN by the vaccinated as the unvaccinated. I did share a link about this at one point if you would like me to dig it up. |

Again what McCarthy and friends do not understand is that Jan 6th was an attack on our government, our democracy, our Republic!!
The summer of protests was not. They were protests against police actions targeting mostly Black citizens.
There is a very big difference.

The name of the committee tells you what this committee was formed to investigate.

The question is why should the January 6 Committee investigate something that happened in March or April or whenever Good Friday was? The name of the committee tells you what this committee was formed to investigate. Because Republicans wanted to expand the scope of the Jan 6 committee. Initially, when they were talking about forming the committee, that's what some of them wanted. And they're not letting go because they want to weaken the committee any way they can, downplay the 6th, ignore their roles in the insurrection and whitewash history. They knew the investigation would not look favorably on them, they're just trying to protect their reputations, and more importantly, maintain their power. I'm hoping that it was a bad miscalculation on McCarthy's part to vote against the committee and it backfires against him. Republicans lost control of the timeline which might impact the November elections, something they were concerned about. www.nytimes.com/2021/05/13/us/politics/republicans-capitol-riot.htmlMcCarthy actually slipped and said this on Fox www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/07/21/kevin-mccarthy-jan-6-hearings-hannity/On Sean Hannity’s Fox News show Wednesday night, the California Republican essentially came right out and said it: We Republicans refused participation in the committee’s investigation for the express purpose of enabling us to cast it as a partisan exercise and therefore illegitimate.
and this HANNITY: Once they pulled Jim Jordan and Jim Banks, why didn’t you replace them with other people? In retrospect, should you have?McCARTHY: No, not at all. Because nothing would be different. Think of this. It’s only the majority who has subpoena power. They would never allow Republicans into those meetings when they interview the individuals.All they would be is, the American people would sit up there, and they would think, this is a fair process.from the opinion McCarthy then spewed misdirection about Republicans wanting the committee to examine leftist violence. That was always an absurd false equivalence tactic, given that this was an actual coup attempt by one party’s president, backed by much of that same party.
Then McCarthy said: “If you allow that to go forward, people would think this is a fair process, it’s the minority having a say. No, we would not.”
In other words, if McCarthy permitted Republicans onto the committee, voters might see it as bipartisan, and therefore more legitimate. That couldn’t stand, so even though Pelosi actually did create a process for bipartisan input, Republicans had to decline it, to magically make it “partisan” and therefore “illegitimate,” a word McCarthy throws around constantly.
McCarthy’s account is mostly baloney. True, a GOP minority on the commission could not have unilaterally subpoenaed, say, Hillary Clinton or Hunter Biden. But a ranking GOP member picked by McCarthy would have had input into who was deposed, and how. McCarthy declined this.
What’s more, a Republican does have input into this whole process: Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the vice chair. You may have noticed that, contra McCarthy, this Republican actually has done plenty of witness-questioning. So has Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.
McCarthy, of course, would say that doesn’t count. But that gives away the game: The only “bipartisan” committee McCarthy really wanted was one that could be derailed by Republicans who don’t actually want the voting public to learn the full truth about Trump’s coup attempt. |

NBC News Pete Williams and Julia Ainsley are reporting that the inspector general's investigation into the Department of Homeland Security over the missing text messages from Jan. 5 and 6, 2021, has now become a criminal probe. The results of what unfolded could also be referred to federal prosecutors for indictment. The DHS Inspector General informed the Secret Service on Wednesday evening that the investigation is now criminal and that it should halt all internal investigations on the missing text messages," a letter relayed to reporters says. www.rawstory.com/secret-service-criminal-probe/ |

Interesting analysis of the gay marriage bill and Republican opposition. Not surprisingly, the Representatives that voted for it are from swing districts and/ or states. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/07/20/breaking-down-house-vote-protect-same-sex-marriage/I think this will be the Republican senators reason for voting no - it's unnecessary. www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/07/senate-same-sex-marriage-bill-marco-rubioREPUBLICAN SENATORS INSIST THERE’S NO NEED TO PROTECT SAME-SEX MARRIAGE DESPITE LITERAL SUPREME COURT THREAT According to Marco Rubio, a bill to enshrine same-sex marriage protection into law is a “stupid waste of time.” Take Senator Marco Rubio, for one. Polled for his stance on the legislation on Wednesday, the Florida senator told Insider he won’t be voting for a bill protecting same-sex marriage at the federal level because “there’s no threat to its status in America.”
Then there’s Senator Ben Sasse, who would also like to pretend that a sitting justice didn‘t recently put a target on same-sex marriage’s back, or that his own colleagues haven’t been out in public saying things like the Supreme Court’s decision to legalize gay marriage was “clearly wrong.” He also believes none of this is anything to worry about, and that Nancy Pelosi is just starting shit. |

We are running out of time when it comes to climate change and if we send men and women to fight in wars then we darn well better take care of them when they come home. This idea that both of these items should be delayed because of inflation and government spending is bullshit. From Smartasset… link“ How Increased Government Spending Affects Inflation”An increase in government spending is one of the factors that economists say can drive inflation. Other factors include interest rates, monetary policy, supply chain disruptions and fluctuations in demand for goods and services. Inflation can be an important consideration for investing, saving and borrowing. Let’s examine how increased government spending can affect inflation. Inflation BasicsThe Federal Reserve defines inflation as an increase in prices for many goods and services over time. Investors, businesses, consumers, economist and government policymakers all follow inflation closely. High inflation can cause an investment to produce a negative return after accounting for a dollar’s reduced purchasing power. Inflation affects consumers by making it more expensive to purchase goods and services. Businesses are impacted when they have to pay more for workers, supplies and materials. One of the most widely used measures of inflation is the Consumer Price Index (CPI). This gauges the average cost in urban areas for a basket of more than 200 different items, ranging from food and housing to leisure activities and healthcare. Inflation is expressed as the percentage change in a measure such as the CPI over a period of time. Over the last century, inflation in the U.S. has averaged just over 3% per year. This means a basket of goods costing $100 would cost about $103 a year later. Inflation spiked as high as nearly 24% in 1920. In five periods since World War II, it exceeded 5% per year, usually during wartime booms or oil price shocks. Although signs of surging inflation often produce stock market downturns, inflation is not always bad. Some inflation is regarded as a sign of a healthy, growing economy. The Federal Reserve Bank manages monetary policy so as to produce inflation of 2% annually. It does this by purchasing securities and influencing interest rates. After decades of generally low inflation, the Bureau of Labor Statistics says that the CPI began surging in 2021 and in March 2022 prices were 8.5% higher than a year earlier. This was the largest increase over a 12-month period since 1981, and came after a 7.9% annual increase the previous month. The 2022 spike in inflation followed a major federal government spending program, the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan. This initiative in response to the economic downturn caused by the COVID pandemic distributed $1,400 to every American, provided extra funds to state and local governments and expanded unemployment benefits. It followed the even larger Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act spending bill that became law in March 2020. The fact that levels of inflation not seen in decades came after historic amounts of government assistance has focused attention on the role that government spending plays in producing inflation. Opinions of scholars of economics are mixed on this question. Some studies of the historical record suggest that government spending has no effect on inflation. Others find that it has some impact on inflation but is likely only partially responsible for the post-pandemic inflation spike. One study, for instance, suggested that government spending had contributed 3% of the increase in inflation.Inflation’s root cause is demand outstripping supply. Many factors go into either increasing demand or reducing supply. For instance, when interest rates are lower, businesses and consumers find it easier and cheaper to borrow, which can spur increased demand. From the other direction, when supplies shrink significantly even though demand stays constant, as is particularly often the case with oil, inflation can also occur. Economists also have not agreed on the mechanism by which increased government spending boosts inflation. Some suggest this happens because bond buyers witnessing increases in federal government borrowing lose faith in the government’s ability to repay its debts. A more conventional explanation is that when consumers and businesses have more money, as they did following the COVID-related stimulus spending, they buy more, which prompts businesses to raise prices to manage demand.Many other factors can also influence the inflation trend. They include interest rate fluctuations, labor market changes, alterations in supplies of key commodities and more. The inflation run that began in 2021 was powerfully affected by a sudden rebound in depressed consumer demand as the pandemic eased, coupled with shortages of many items brought about by global supply chain disruptions.This was particularly notable in the energy sector, where many oil firms went bankrupt as global demand collapsed in 2020 and survivors ceased exploration and drilling and capped wells. Refineries reduced capacity, sometimes permanently. Then, when people began driving and flying again and global trade picked up, prices for gasoline and fuel oil shot up. Similar dynamics affected microchips, which caused new automobiles to be in short supply as well. Then the Ukraine conflict that began in February 2022 resulted in widespread boycotts of Russian oil and gas, which extended the worldwide shortage of petroleum. Other countries with economies similar to the United States have also experienced significant although somewhat more moderate inflation, including those that spent far less on pandemic-related stimulus.” |

What was the bill actually about in simple terms? Tia The Republican objections seem to be that its unnecessary, Democrats are trying to increase access to abortion, Democrats rushed this, it violates religious freedom and maybe some of the usual Republican obstructionism. Pro-Life groups are opposed because they claim it will increase access to the day after pill, but that might not be accurate. eta - Here's the actual bill, if you want to try to read it and a couple of key parts docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20220718/BILLS-117HR8373IH.pdfCongress finds the following: (1) The right to contraception is a fundamental right, central to a person’s privacy, health, wellbeing, dignity, liberty, equality, and ability to participate in the social and economic life of the nation. a) GENERAL RULE.—A person has a statutory right under this Act to obtain contraceptives and to engage in contraception, and a health care provider has a corresponding right to provide contraceptives, contraception, and information related to contraception. (b) PRIVATE RIGHT OF ACTION.— (1) IN GENERAL.—Any individual or entity, including any health care provider or patient, adversely affected by an alleged violation of this Act, may commence a civil action against any State that violates, or against any government official (including a person described in section 6(c)) that implements or enforces a limitation or requirement that violates, section 4. The court shall hold unlawful and set aside the limitation or requirement if it is in violation of this Act. (2) HEALTH CARE PROVIDER.—A health care provider may commence an action for relief on its own behalf, on behalf of the provider’s staff, and on behalf of the provider’s patients who are or may be adversely affected by an alleged violation of this Act. www.nytimes.com/2022/07/21/us/politics/house-contraception.htmlRepublicans, in turn, claimed that Democrats were intent on finding novel ways to increase access to abortion. Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Republican of Washington, said she supported access to contraception but that she vehemently opposed the bill, which she described as a “Trojan Horse for more abortions.”
Ms. McMorris Rodgers said part of her concern was that the bill would send more taxpayer money to Planned Parenthood, which provides abortion services in addition to contraception.
“Rather than work with us, Democrats again are spreading fear and misinformation to score political points,” she said.www.cbsnews.com/news/house-contraception-bill-vote-supreme-court/The bill, called the Right to Contraption Act, now goes to Senate, where it is unlikely to attract the support of 10 Republicans needed to pass it. The measure would create a statutory right for people to access birth control and protect a range of contraceptive methods, as well as ensure health care providers have a right to provide contraception services to patients.
www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/house-to-vote-on-bill-that-would-protect-right-to-use-contraceptionThe contraception bill explicitly allows the use of contraceptives and gives the medical community the right to provide them, covering “any device or medication used to prevent pregnancy.” Listed examples include oral contraceptives, injections, implants like intrauterine devices and emergency contraceptives, which prevent pregnancy several days after unprotected sex.The bill lets the federal and state government, patients and health care providers bring civil suits against states or state officials that violate its provisions.
But anti-abortion groups oppose the contraception legislation, and it remains to be seen if significant numbers of GOP lawmakers are willing to make that break.
Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America said the legislation “seeks to bail out the abortion industry, trample conscience rights, and require uninhibited access to dangerous chemical abortion drugs.” The National Right to Life Committee said it “goes far beyond the scope of contraception” and would cover abortion pills like RU486, which supporters said was incorrect. |

While I support these measures announced by President Biden this country will never be safer until we ban and completely remove guns that have no business being on our streets and to get rid of this notion that people can just wander around with concealed guns or guns slung over one’s shoulder in public areas. The only exception should be if a job requires it.
“More on the Safer America Plan:”
“President Biden announced today that his administration proposes to invest $37 billion to save lives and make communities safer. He plans to:
Invest in effective community policing by funding the hiring and training of 100,000 additional police officers
Establish a $15 billion grant program to provide resources to cities and states to prevent crime and advance equity through supportive services
Invest $5 billion in community violence intervention programs
Invest $3 billion to help communities clear court backlogs and solve murders
Increase funding to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to hire new agents and investigators to help keep firearms out of dangerous hands”

That’s what I thought. The thought of limiting contraceptives and condoms is scary and will just lead to more back alley abortions snd many more lives lost. I never understood limiting methods to prevent pregnancy in the first place and think it’s should be free and easily available. |

www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/07/21/biden-covid-positive-diagnosis-a-teaching-moment/President Biden’s covid-19 diagnosis is an opportunity for his administration to demonstrate the success of his leadership on the pandemic and what living with the coronavirus looks like. The fact that Biden contracted the coronavirus should not be surprising at all. People around him have been getting infected for months, including Vice President Harris, multiple Cabinet secretaries, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.). Frankly, I’m surprised Biden had held off infection for so long, given the number of public events he has attended and his proclivity for hugging and shaking hands. Sign up for a weekly roundup of thought-provoking ideas and debates His symptoms so far are mild, and they will likely stay that way. His age is a risk factor, but he is vaccinated and twice-boosted, meaning he is very well protected against severe illness. Biden also received the antiviral pill Paxlovid right after his diagnosis. When taken early in the course of illness, Paxlovid further reduces the risk of hospitalization and death by about 90 percent. Biden, his medical team and others in the administration have done all the right things to demonstrate what should happen after a covid diagnosis. Right after he tested positive, his staff canceled public events. He entered isolation, and White House staff near him were cut to the minimum number. The administration began reaching out to those with whom he had exposure so that they can follow precautions and get tested. It’s also notable that Biden has been receiving regular tests, with the last negative test reported on Tuesday — two days before his positive test Thursday morning. That means his infection was caught quickly. This is important for two reasons: First, it allows for more precise and timely contact-tracing. Second, it enables antiviral treatment to begin rapidly. The sooner a person takes Paxlovid, the more effective it will be in stopping virus replication and curbing the progression to severe disease. These are all important lessons for Americans. Biden should use his illness as an opportunity to inform the public that covid-19 is a manageable disease for almost everyone, so long as they use the tools available to them. It’s crucial to test as soon as someone develops symptoms, and if they’re positive, to isolate right away. Let people they’ve exposed know that they should take necessary precautions. Then, take advantage of available treatments. The earlier the better; don’t wait until symptoms become severe to initiate Paxlovid. Another key lesson is that it’s inevitable that everyone — even the president of the United States — will be exposed to the coronavirus. That’s why vaccination and boosters are so important. Biden needs to keep emphasizing that he is doing well because he is up to date on vaccines. The fact that he contracted the coronavirus doesn’t mean that the vaccines don’t work; rather, vaccines succeeded because they are keeping him out of the hospital.Biden can also message that those who wish to prolong the period until they get the coronavirus can use additional measures, such as masking in indoor spaces and testing before gathering inside. No doubt, these practices are what kept Biden from being infected until now. Still, the fact that he contracted the virus despite all these precautions speaks to how contagious emerging variants are — and how difficult, if not impossible, avoiding covid-19 has become. Getting the coronavirus should not come with stigma or be perceived as a failure; rather, it should reflect the new normal going forward. Indeed, this is almost certainly not the only time Biden will get the coronavirus. He, like the rest of us, could contract the virus once a year or more. What if Biden’s illness progresses to become more serious? It’s possible that he starts experiencing fever and body aches, and he could develop a lingering cough and other longer-term symptoms. It’s unlikely — though also not impossible — that he could even become ill enough to require hospitalization. These are still opportunities for him to showcase his leadership and values by being honest and transparent with the American people. Already, the straightforward announcement of Biden’s illness has been a stark contrast from the obfuscation and deliberate flouting of precautions when President Donald Trump had covid-19.
For now, Biden is back at work and carrying out all the duties of his office. That’s exactly as it should be. Thanks in large part to Biden’s leadership over the past two years, the United States has had so much success with vaccines and treatments that even when the president gets the virus, it’s business as usual.

dizzycheermomIn order to respond to you question - I spoke about group bullying on this board and how I left the board and deleted my account . I was then accused by aj2hall of previously spreading disinformation regarding pandemic transmission. I replied that this was incorrect and provided a source, hoping this would clarify things by bringing it to an end. However Aj2hall continued to challenge this in further posts saying she did not accept my source. I replied by providing another source for her even though this took further time and effort. It was from the CDC and I hoped she would find it helpful to clear up any misunderstandings. I expressed it was bedtime for me. Aj2hall continued with yet another further response. I chose not to respond, thinking that things should have reached a conclusion by now. Then you quoted me and brought it up again. I replied politely to you hoping it would be the end of the subject. You are now bringing it up again and quoting me again asking me why I keep posting, querying what point am I trying to make ? So in my final reply , I wish you both Good Evening and hope we can conclude this conversation as over. I feel that my previous posts were clear enough and provided the information asked for.
