@nursej22, thank you for the links. It seems, that the intent of my post was not clear as my post was a general comment, and not directed to you in particular.

I have always thought, for a couple of reasons, that one should include sources when posting. First, it provides a source for the article in question. Second, and most important, at least for me, it helps me understand the point of view of the member that posted. While I generally try and provide sources, it appears to me that doing so has become become optional as the last time I posted regarding this, two progressive members provided their rationale for not doing so. One said that references weren't necessary when the subject matter was "known or accepted as fact." However, the failed to describe how this was determined. The other stated that they weren't going to engage in a "resource war." If we are going to expect sources from one member or one side of a discussion, shouldn't we expect sources from all?

@GrumpyRN, all of your quotes above this should have been attributed to @NurseManFlorida; however, as you quoted the from her post, they have been attributed to @heron.

If you are truly a nurse you should appreciate physicians screening for diseases, you are at high risk for. Perhaps you missed where @DavidFR mentioned he had been in a stable, monogamous relationship for nearly 40 years?

Atlantic League team forfeits game after some players refuse to wear Pride jersey - ESPN "[S]tanding upfor their beliefs" did not factor in their decision to forefeit the game. From the York Revolution Team Announcement annoncing the decision to forefeit the game:

I have no idea what you have heard. Looking at the stadium crowds does it look like people are staying away? Perhaps @Beerman was referring to you post where you mentioned hearing rumors that supporters were talking of boycotting any games in USA?

Dive Brief House appropriators move to label graduate nursing as professional degree

From the article @nursej22 cited here: Do you have a source that this was done at the behest of the Trump administration, and not the direction of the conference organizers? If so, perhaps you would share it with the rest of us?

@bjwojcik, a retired pharmacist wrote a text Pharmacy Calculations for Pharmacy Technicians and has attached a copy here. Don't be mislead by the title, most, if not all, of the material is applicable to nursing. He also included helpful worksheets to several of his posts.

@dianah, thank you for remembering those that have given so much.

The closest source I was able to findnwas this, from the transcript of one of Ms. Richardson's videos ... ... and I don't see this as the her making an accusation. As for providing a source or citation, I have long been of the opinion that if you are going to post something, you should source it.

Coast Guard operating in "crisis" as DHS shutdown halts pay in May, cuts power, strains missions overseas The lack of DHS funding affects much more than ICE. At least three Coast Guard stations dedicated to search and rescue and a recruiting station have had utilities disconnected. And in New Orleans, power was cut off to the residence of a Coast Guard admiral; one of 1000 residences of Coast Guard members at risk of losing service due to unpaid bills. And, more importantly, the Coast Guard might not make payroll for the upcoming 15 May payday.

Another waste of time and money. While most commonly used as meaning "to throw out," "to get rid of," or "to refuse service to," Merriam-Webster dictionary includes the following: And if he did it, which I doubt, I don't see this as a call to assassinate Mr. Trump.

I don't think it's your computer; I had a time getting logged on, and once I was able to, it has been a beast to navigate.

It seems they will, as they have agreed to the ceasefire in Iran; adding that it doesn't apply to the fighting in Lebanon. The bigger question is whether Iran is going to comply.

Here is the link to the post @GrumpyRN referenced

They do, and thank you for remembering them. After Ms. Noem, I really hoped he would be the next one to go.

Unlike most military installations, there is only one road onto the island. And until you get to the gate, it is two lanes. Once you get through the gate, the number of lanes increases, one article I read says to four lanes; I don't recall there being that many, but it's been a few years since I've been there. The DOD has mandated 100 % ID checks since May 2025, and some installations have been doing so longer. A Real ID compliant identification is required, and they are all scanned. I can't speak to the "enhanced procedures" that have been implemented. Negative publicity might have been a factor, but I don't think so. The original statement was posted 03/31, an updated on 04/01. As am I, although I imagine that some families chose not to attend.

Despite all of the erroneous reports to the contrary, the family day and recruit graduation at MCRD PISC apparently occurred without incident or replrted arrests of anyone by ICE. Federal officers stationed at Marine Recruit Depot Parris Island graduation

If and ICE agent were to detain a family member of one of the Marines, I doubt very seriously that any Marine colleagues are going to resist or in any other manner become involved. I've no idea what you've based your assumption on; I'm basing mine on 20 years active service in the Marine Corps. ETA: By the way, Marine should be capitalized.

Excellent question, one I had myself when I first saw this. It will be interesting to see how this works at the upcoming graduation this Friday, 3 April. And, I find it interesting that MCRD San Diego has not announced implementation of a similar process.

I follow several military and defense sites, and the deportation of both veterans, and reports of both veterans and/or their dependents is not an uncommon occurrence. From the New York Times, 34 Former Military Members Were Put on Deportation Track in the Past Year. I'll leave you to investigate further.

In the past I occassionally would question a post, especially those that seemed extreme. Since returning from time away from the political forum I have been less likely to do so. I have always thought, and mentioned occassionsally, that many of the posts in the political threads should be sourced. Not to fact check the poster, but as an opportunity to better see the other point of view. As for this discussion, it wasn't my intent to challenge or be disrespectful, and if I came across as such, please accept my apologies. Looking back, I should have exited this discussion earlier than I did. Best wishes.
