Some days I can’t bear to wade through all the news, but you are among the 4-5 commentators I read every day. Thank you for your clear-headed, succinct account of events that make us all shudder.
Sorry, but no excuse for the docs involved. They have an oath. But, so do our military officer corps that they are ignoring. The docs, the hospitals, the medical systems involved need to be sued out of existence (where are at the armies of litigation lawyers that usually hang around hospitals?). The military will quickly lose all the respect that it has garnered since the dark days of the Viet Nam War. I vote for closing down the military academies if they aren't teaching the critical fealty to the constitution. Each soldier better think real hard whether they want to be associated with the ICE Nazis.
This whole atmosphere of lawlessness is leading to increased stances taken by right wing religionists in my town who checked out about $500 worth of library books on LGBTQ issues and never brought them back. They are now bragging that they took for books because the lord commanded them to do so, AND they won't give them back because they are exercising civil disobedience. It's now making the national news. I gave the library a check yesterday to cover the cost of the books. They've already ordered replacements. So as long as we as a country allow Trump and his minions to flout the law or break the law, these small active bullies will be popping up in everyone's local communities.
Linda that statement is the clearest warning , evidenced by increasing graphics from just another town , another place which says, “OH MY GOD, I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD HAPPEN HERE!”

With Donald Trump coyly stating that Heaven was his goal yesterday, I am , as a non-church goer actively praying that his wish will be God's command and the ascension occurs tomorrow ! May he be the first to go so the rest of us can get busy correcting all the cahos his administrations have wrought upon us. Texas, You are nearing the point of no return and may be asked to return your Bibles to sender and attend character rebuilding classes before you are readmitted to these United States. This is not Gilead ! Such a pitiful state of affairs brought on by a small man with a big ego who is hellbent on attention. Thanks, Marz, for guarding Mary as she works each day! My smile is diminished today because of the weight of all the horrific news, but I am grateful for your words!
I'd have gone with "Heaven, Hemorrhages, and Hoaxes". Can't tell you why, exactly, Made my ears feel better. Now I'm off to search how much ambassadors to Iceland earn. Not a job for a grossly overweight guy with Billy's temperament and background. He's not made for Iceland.
"Data from January 2025 indicates the average annual salary for a diplomatic ambassador is around \$194,600, with a range between \$166,857 and \$231,525, and some potentially earning up to \$265,710. It is important to note that these figures represent averages and can vary based on experience, location, and specific role requirements"
I vote for Marz for United States Secretary of Homeland Security!
Glad to hear Marz is on the mend.

I don't understand how doctors and other medical professionals can stand by and let women die.
