Sogo's JournalA very powerful message from a friend of mine about vaccine mandates:
"As a 6 year-old who had polio, who was close to total paralysis, who spent nearly 4 months in a hospital bed plus another 6 months of painful at-home physical therapy, who had to learn to walk again & still has to "think" walking & who saw other young kids in my ward either go home to a lifetime of braces & crutches OR who never made it home...I wish the polio vaccine had come out long before. But I'm forever grateful for the millions of kids & adults since then who HAVEN'T caught polio thanks to the vaccine. To those who think freedom is NOT getting the COVID vaccine, stop to consider that the only reason you haven't been paralyzed or killed by polio is because you "had" to get the polio vaccine. As a result, you have the "freedom" to sit up, to walk & to live. That's real freedom you can live by."
Rachel reported tonight that Pope Francis is establishing a vaccine mandate at the Vatican,
which will inevitably make vaccine religious exemptions for Catholics pretty hard to defend.
Why can't Tom Steyer (a billionaire who ran on climate as his #1 issue)
make it worth Sinema’s while to vote for a bill (Build Back Better) that’s BIG on climate change, an issue she also claims is so important to her….Then she wouldn’t have to have her fundraisers with donors opposed to the Build Back Better bill and do their bidding.
Retain the medical personnel who don't want to get vaccinated.
Assign them to treat the COVID patients who didn't want to be vaccinated (but not the ones with medical exemptions).
Seems of late that TFG is plastered all over the headlines again.
Sure was nice that we had a few months when he wasn't sucking all the oxygen out of the room.
Lawrence O. reported tonight that a judge has decided that the defamation case
of E. Jean Carroll against Trump can go forward (saying she lied about him raping her). Apparently he had requested that the suit be halted.
Arguments begin November 29.
The fence at the US Capitol is going back up, starting tonight. I have a question about it:
How secure can that fence be.....I mean structurally?
How is it anchored to the ground?

Is Texas a "stand-your-ground" state?
Asking for a friend in Texas who wants to know, 'cause she's feeling pretty threatened right now....
