Two other things in the news; Moderna weakens at least somewhat after 6 mos, and Pfizer may not protect against the South African variant.

Is this anything like, "The dog ate my handgun!"?

"The coronavirus pandemic, a changing party makeup and a softening approach to debt and deficit have combined to give Democrats the space to embrace expensive policies and federal government expansion that would have been unheard of just a few years ago. President Biden is leading the charge and many Democrats, not just progressives, are eagerly jumping on board.

In less than 100 days, Biden and congressional Democrats have passed the second-largest stimulus bill in U.S. history and launched an infrastructure plan that would spend trillions to remake the economy over the next decade. Polls show significant public support, even as Republicans in Congress have uniformly opposed the president's plans.

It's a dynamic Biden is facing without apology.

"I haven't been able to unite the Congress," Biden told reporters at the White House. "But I've been able to unite the country, based on the polling data."

Democrats are betting that the majority of voters, including many Republicans, actually want the federal government to step in and help heal the social and economic wounds caused by the pandemic."

"Sleepy Joe", indeed.

Radicalism in any form isn't good for big bidness, stability is. It just happens that in this case stability is about votes counting more than wild conspiracy theories and GOP lies.

Ah so... Belldinger was there.

The Covid vaccines are FDA-approved for Emergency Use... of course, a 15 percent increase in deaths caused by the virus pandemic don't constitute an emergency to some dingbells.

I got my second Pfizer shot two days ago, and so far it's been the same as the first; a little tender around the shot area, that's all.

I didn't know that current Marines were such p.....s.

If he's not Q, he might as well be; he's definitely the chief enabler and merchandiser.

F him and the orange jackass he rode in on.

"Key figure in Matt Gaetz probe likely cooperating with federal prosecutors

"I am sure Matt Gaetz is not feeling very comfortable today," Joel Greenberg's defense attorney said.

ORLANDO, Fla. " The legal peril Rep. Matt Gaetz is facing appeared to increase sharply Thursday after a court hearing indicated that one of Gaetz's close friends, former Seminole County, Fla., tax collector Joel Greenberg, is likely cooperating with federal prosecutors."

That's what I tell my dates.....

At least one Orange Man Suffered Neurological Or Mental Disorders BEFORE he had the Covids.

He only got worse after, though.

'On the other tentacle' was pretty funny though.

You unstable meson, you.

- (fully dunked, not sprinkled), twice and baptized by the Holy Spirit.

So funny. The Church of Christ that got a hold of me as teen (because my girlfriend went there) were convinced that my admittedly early (about 7 or 8 years old) baptism at a small Baptist Church in Ft Worth hadn't "taken" given my attitude of arguing with them about the bible, that they baptized me a second time.

And then a third time a year or so later, lol, after they brought in a Ringer to argue with me.

The New Testament churches were taught by Paul that they were to, "share with" or pay the teachers who taught them.

Jesus said to the Pharisees of the tithe, "this you should have done".

None of which of course invokes the give to get, pay to play heresy of the Prosperity Gospel... nor the cult of Supply-Side Jesus.

Glad we have some actual scientists here. I wondered if there is any interaction between muons and dark matter and found these articles...

"Heil Trump!"

There you go again being all rational and stuff.

"That something could be explained by a new particle or force."

Which new particle or force some billionaire somewhere is figuring out how to monetize.

Whatever = current law.

Thread article is about what is possible under current law, not about NRA scare propaganda that someone is coming to take your gun away.

No wonder you are such a demented nut job. GIGO, as they say.

Was it the Nazi lightening bolt imagery that attracted you there?

I know some Irish families. Fist fight at the drop of a hat... even if no one is wearing one. Then get drunk and laugh about it.

Actual physicists say, "Extraordinary!", while RatBoy in nonplussed.

Figures. What do those guys know, anyway?

= the rise in mental illness

In your case, you are right to be concerned.

Insightful analysis, my good doctor.

"The Court stated that the right to keep and bear arms is subject to regulation, such as concealed weapons prohibitions, limits on the rights of felons and the mentally ill, laws forbidding the carrying of weapons in certain locations, laws imposing conditions on commercial sales, and prohibitions on the carrying of dangerous and unusual weapons.

It stated that this was not an exhaustive list of the regulatory measures that would be presumptively permissible under the Second Amendment."
