My dad got a blood clot last year. ER visit: $31,000. Insurance covered: $6,200. He owed: $24,000. He has insurance. He has a supplemental plan. He's 71 years old and making payment arrangements. The American healthcare system doesn't fail people. It was designed this way.

This is MASSIVE: The US Supreme Court has ruled that Colorado Democrats’ ban on talk therapy for kids identifying as transgender is UNCONSTITUTIONAL It was an 8-1 ruling - with radical liberal activist Justice Jackson - who doesn't belong on the court - dissenting. Make sure the world sees where she stands. #thinblueline #Lawenforcement

This is a HUGE win for the St. Louis region. I’m proud to announce $30 million in federal funding for the St. Louis Lambert International Airport’s new terminal construction project. The work doesn’t stop here— I’ll keep fighting to bring more resources and regional growth to our district.

A historic Black cemetery in Palmetto, Florida, was vandalized, with graves damaged and “Trump” and “DeSantis” spray-painted across tombstones. Our ancestors deserve dignity in life and in death. Desecrating sacred burial grounds is hateful, painful, and unacceptable. We must protect Black history and honor the families impacted by this cruelty.

This is two sitting professors at a US university openly advocating for covert biological warfare on the US population. They should both be fired summarily.
TFTC@TFTC21

A peer-reviewed paper published last year in the journal Bioethics by two professors at Western Michigan University School of Medicine argues that it is "morally obligatory" to genetically engineer ticks to spread alpha-gal syndrome, a permanent condition that makes you violently allergic to red meat. The paper is called "Beneficial Bloodsucking." Their argument: if eating meat is morally wrong, then preventing the spread of a disease that forces people to stop eating meat is also morally wrong. Scientists should gene-edit lone star ticks to enhance their ability to carry alpha-gal syndrome and expand their range into urban environments to infect more people. They call this a "moral bioenhancer." They frame releasing genetically modified disease-carrying ticks as a "vaccination" that only "infringes" on your bodily autonomy rather than "violating" it. The distinction, apparently, is that a tick bit you instead of a government official holding you down. Alpha-gal syndrome is not mild. The CDC estimates up to 450,000 Americans are already affected. Cases have surged 100-fold in the last decade. Symptoms include anaphylaxis. There is no cure. Alpha-gal cases are exploding across the United States. The lone star tick's range is expanding far beyond its historical territory. And two academics at a medical school published a paper arguing this is a good thing that should be accelerated. At what point do we stop treating papers like this as fringe academic exercises and start asking whether anyone is already acting on them?

Tu confonds deux choses, et c'est exactement le piège que la French Theory a tendu. Liberté, égalité, fraternité — égalité *de droits*, égalité *devant la loi*, égalité *de dignité*. C'est la promesse républicaine, et personne ici ne l'attaque. Le wokisme, ce n'est pas ça. C'est l'égalitarisme des résultats. Et l'égalitarisme des résultats, contrairement à l'égalité des droits, n'est pas un élargissement de la liberté — c'est sa négation. Quelques exemples concrets : — San Francisco supprime les classes de maths avancées au collège pour "réduire les inégalités". Résultat : les écarts entre élèves explosent, les familles aisées prennent des cours privés, les pauvres se font enterrer. L'égalitarisme a creusé l'inégalité. — Les politiques de discrimination positive à Harvard : étudiants admis avec des scores très en dessous de leurs camarades, taux d'échec dispropportionné, sentiment d'imposture, ressentiment généralisé. On a saboté ceux qu'on voulait aider. — L'aide humanitaire qui distribue du riz gratuit pendant 30 ans en Afrique : effondrement des filières agricoles locales, dépendance institutionnalisée. Donner un poisson, c'est empêcher d'apprendre à pêcher. Le wokisme ne détruit pas l'humanité dans le sens dramatique. Il fait pire : il dessert systématiquement ceux qu'il prétend protéger, et il génère du ressentiment des deux côtés — ceux qu'on infantilise et ceux qu'on culpabilise. La fraternité républicaine dit : tu es mon égal, donc je te traite en adulte capable. Le wokisme dit : tu es ma victime, donc je dois te protéger de toi-même. L'un élève. L'autre infantilise. Ce n'est pas la même chose, et confondre les deux est exactement le tour de passe-passe qu'on dénonce.

President Megan E. Green@saintlouispres·
Today, the Board of Aldermen passed Board Bill 9, sponsored by Ald. Aldridge and myself, providing a $1,000 lump sum payment to all civil service employees. From refuse collection and park maintenance to filling potholes, our public workers keep St. Louis functioning every single day. They do essential work, often under difficult conditions and without much recognition. In the coming weeks, we also look forward to passing Board Bill 12, which would authorize raises for those same city workers.

We have to ask, how did this blue-haired, woke, liberal Boone County Clerk, who is currently thumbing her nose at the President of the United States, win an election against an incumbent Republican? 🤷🏻‍♂️ #MAGA

So, Brianna Lennon, the liberal, crazy, blue haired democrat Boone County clerk has decided to give the middle finger to the Secretary of State, Missouri Supreme Court, and the Attorney General. This individual must be removed from office. #moleg #mogov

Dad buys Bitcoin for $100,000. It grows to $5,000,000. If he sells, he owes tax on a $4.9M gain. Instead, he puts it in a trust. Borrows against it. Lives tax-free. Dies holding. Kids inherit at a $5M basis. IRS gets $0.
