I don't care if politicians practice a religion. I care if they insert religion into laws. There is a line the Constitution told pols not to cross. Here in the South they act on a litmus test: to proclaim religion as basis of law. And it has to be a toxic form of christianity. No other allowed.
I'm glad Talarico instead proclaims separation of church & state. But at the same time he goes on and on about his religious belief while interviewing for a job making laws. This is the same problem as the rest of them. He can stop doing that and still make the same ethical points, and he should.
Given two candidates I consider equal on policy platforms, I will vote for the one who has never talked about religion as a basis for their policy platform.
All this #Epstein stuff DOJ has been releasing, they have this stuff because of discovery related to prosecution(s) and remember the Epstein estate still has ownership of ALL of Epstein's records so just imagine what the executors of that estate could reveal if compelled to do so. To include probably a metric fuckton of video and photographic material. If you think you're sick to your stomach over these docs & a few pics, don't even think about what the Epstein estate has in storage.
I didn't realize that after Dr. Murthy left the post, the U.S. has no Surgeon General. There's currently a chief of staff running the USPHS. Literal killer nutjob RFKJr is basically the Surgeon General now. I heard this while listening to Dr. Bruce Davidson on the Daily Beast podcast talking about Trump's almost certain stroke he had last year.
Convenient! Very convenient. This from Nov caught my eye with a Bsky post that said "hey everybody lifelong tech expert here
"system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility
that's not how anything works they're lying and destroying evidence hope that helps"
"The federal government claims that the day after it was sued for allegedly abusing detainees at an ICE detention center, a “system crash” deleted nearly two weeks of surveillance footage from inside the facility.
I'll post a link for those who wish to go there but this is said to be the video taken by the woman in pink jacket who was close to the murder of Alex Pretti this morning https://bsky.app/profile/alexip718.com/post/3md6uyjftvc2f
