One of the things that continually floors me is how many schools—across the country—refuse FREELY OFFERED air filters even when the science is clear that they help cut down on all airborne infections. Some schools even ban them, despite students and parents begging to be allowed to use/provide them.
The city run long covid care clinics have long wait lists and there’s no way that most people who need them would even find out about them. I have no idea what quality of care they offer as no one I know has been able to get in. Meanwhile schools & city buildings don’t have hair filtration.

On Saturday, thousands of “No Kings” events were held around the country. At around 1:30 p.m., No Kings’ Instagram account was taken offline. It left the organization without its biggest megaphone during the height of the protests. The account remained offline for approximately 90 minutes.

The difference between the Paxton scandals vs. the Talarico scandals is that the Paxton scandals are a) demonstrably worse, and b) demonstrably real.

ICE is opening a new prison in Alexandria, LA dedicated to detaining & deporting unaccompanied minors. If that isn't horrifying enough, it's being built on a site linked to high levels of "forever chemicals," or PFAS, which can cause health problems over time, especially in children.
