The abortion law builds on legislation passed in 2010 that represented a major shift for a traditionally Catholic country, transforming Spain into one of the most progressive countries in Europe on reproductive rights. Spain's constitutional court last week rejected a challenge by the right-wing Popular Party against allowing abortions in the first 14 weeks of pregnancy.
The debate will be heated in Spain, I imagine, as the conservative opposition pushes back. My daughter had horrible menstrual pain during her adolescence and young adulthood. I'm certain that she would have benefitted from that time.
I'm trying other make sense of this. I think there are many people that support Palestine and not Israel, but to call them a "Hamas supporter" or a terrorist is wrong. I also think that going after student protestors, especially those with legal status, violates the idea of a nation where the freedom to protest is American 101.
Also it goes against their idea of departing criminals and illegal undocumented persons and making the border safe.
44%-ish of Gazans voted for Hamas in 2006 but lost to the PL0. That is an extremely significant number of people who supported violence. What I don't know is how cooperative they were in letting Hamas build the tunnels and blowing up buses in Israel. The only thing I do know is that a much more significant Gazans support Hamas today . 50% of Israels voted far-right in 2022 giving Netanyahu the win. In 2022 the Israel Times conducted a survey which found 57% of the people are not in favor of Netanyahu. I'm pretty sure that the Gazans are even more radicalized now than they were when the last election was held. It's numbers like this that make me think that both sides are right and wrong at the same time. If Hamas had just released the hostages, Israel would have would have gone in and killed 250 Gazans. They are very biblical in their tit for tat. That's all Hamas had to do to to avoid the hell-hole it is today.
Not running for president. He's trying to motivate the soporose population into fighting for their constitution and the rights that the document gives them. The media has them convinced that there's nothing to be alarmed about with the unconstitutional efforts of the liars.
Crock of feces. This started as an internet rumor. Yes, Yale did a study which hasn't passed peer review yet and that study indicated no such thing. As Berenson usually does, he takes a little nugget of truth and perverts in an a way that bends to his beliefs but has no confirmation in research. Yale is making absolutely no response to the truth of what this nutjob says. Read the study.
He acknowledges there isn't proof that the shots caused the decreased T cells, and remains of spike protein long after woukd be expected. And quotes experts who are surprised by the findings but also say a repeat and expanded study needs to be done.
So, what specifically do you think is a "crock of feces "?
That's an interesting finding and Yale is obviously a renowned institution. I like that your article points out some of the faults in that it's a very small study, not published and peer reviewed and doesn't prove anything. It's just one of those things that needs more time and research. We do need to answer the question what are the long-term effects of covid vaccination.
It would be interesting to find out what those that had vaccine injuries have in common and maybe a screening process might be established rather than a blanket recommendation.
It also would be interesting to see some measurements of t-cell and immunity on people such as myself that has received five or more jabs without injury that I know of, to see if it's only a specific population of people or all of us. I got covid and the flu in 2021 but have avoided it since then (both ran rampant here this year) and have been jabbed annually for both. Come October of this year I'll have my annual discussion on whether to get vaccinated again or not. On the one hand I haven't been sick in four years and on the other hand is it because of my good immune system and lifestyle, dumb luck, or vaccination or a combo of all.
I've had three jabs. Considering that and have likely been exposed who knows how much, my overall good health, questions about long-term safety, I don't have to worry about passing covid on to my (had many comorbiities and recently passed), ill be passing on getting any future boosters for the foreseeable future.
"Red alert, everybody,” Pritzker said. "It is time to wake up. Get out. Do something.”
Quote
"My oath is to the Constitution of our state and of our country. We don't have kings in America — and I don't intend to bend the knee to one. I am not speaking up in service to my ambitions — but in deference to my obligations,” Pritzker said at the state Capitol in Springfield. "If you think I'm overreacting and sounding the alarm too soon, consider this: It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.”

Pritzker's attacks on Trump have also drawn Republican ire, including from the likes of Karl Rove, who called him "over the top" on Fox News after Pritzker's comments comparing the Trump administration's actions to Nazi Germany. Trump has personally attacked Pritzker in the past as well.
Pritzker is also of Ukrainian descent, and at the close of his event in Chicago, he immediately posted a rebuke of Trump on X: "President Trump's simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House."
More people should speak openly about the president's fawning fealty to Putin.
US stocks plunged on Monday as investors processed growing concerns about the health of the US economy after President Trump and his top economic officials acknowledged the possibility of a potential rough patch.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) fell nearly 900 points, or over 2%, while the benchmark S&P 500 (^GSPC) dropped around 2.7% after the index posted its worst week since September.

Your choice and prerogative. Hopefully, you won't use social media to influence others to also skip vaccine boosters for evolving viruses.

That really isn't the point. I'm talking about someone that's legal being deported for protesting. Are green card holders not allowed to protest?
We live in a country where white supremists can rally and be protected.
You're not kidding. As someone turning 66 in a couple of months with impending retirement I'm still in the market because I want to plan in case I live as long as my father who is now 91. So while not all my retirement is in the market, as that would be foolish at my age I'm still in it. I just checked and my one 403B that I contribute 15% of my salary has gained $1,000 this year. Trust me that $1,000 is not 15% of my salary since January. I'm putting in 15% of my salary and watching it disappear. I have another larger account that's lost $30,000 on paper.
I've been through this before and it's a sick feeling, exacerbated by my age and retirement plans.
I think the US Economy is resilient that we have to be careful not to give into fear and hype, but it can't be denied that Trump like some economists are saying is "an agent of chaos and confusion".
I guess the question is how long and how much of a downturn are we willing to take for the great good of bringing wealth to America. (Trump re-truthed a post about "shut up about egg prices" and how giddy Democrats were about the high cost of eggs. I don't think we're giddy but it was Trump and Vance themselves that focused on the high price of eggs in the campaign and that didn't age well with them, as Democrats are pointing out.)
Trump is trying to warn us that he if screws this one up, it's not his fault. He warned us:( I'm trying to take a let's wait and see attitude but it's increasingly difficult as Trump's only answer to economic stability is tariffs and we have a long world history of them never working out. A very stupid group of people with myopic views can do no right.

Yale has released no such study. That's just for starters. Yale will not comment on this "study." If you read it what the methadology is, it relies on self-reporting from Covid patients. Now, I had Covid twice. The 2nd time was a breeze but I noticed an almost immediate decrease in my FEV1 which has lasted for almost 2 years. Is this long Covid or is it a scheduled side effect of getting older? I am led to believe that it was Covid because the change was so abrupt despite the acute phase being nothing more than a mild cold, Now, how is a layman supposed to answer complex questions when they don't even have the skill sets to think about what's important and what isn't? And the relationship of those symptoms to Covid, long Covid or normal aging? I'm not sure this study will ever be released but Alex told a big lie when he said it was. He's a known liar from years back now. He lost his job for it. I will continue to get boosters since I've already had a taste of what an easy bout has wrought.

What are these long-term side effects you are worried about? Do you worry about the side effects of the flu shots? Polio? Mumps, measles, pertussis, tetanus?
