" As for "not all of the mutations are going to be milder" can you please support this with some evidence. Crystal ball perhaps?" Antigenic shift/drift, covid goes through this, its the same with flu, some years it can be more virulent. -
So if a librarian tries to get a copy of the Bible or any banned book to a student, they'll be prosecuted? LOL at least that would be the case in Arkansas The law will subject librarians to criminal charges if they are found to have furnished any item deemed “harmful to minors”. The plaintiffs argue the new law is illegal because it is a direct attack on free speech guaranteed by the first and 14th amendments to the US constitution. They call Act 372 a censorship law that seeks to “ban books in libraries and criminalize librarians”. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/02/arkansas-book-ban-law-lawsuit

Its a tradition, started since the Stonewall Uprising 1969. Its grown internationally with millions of people taking part around the world. Parties, workshops, concerts, picnics and of course the parade that the homophobic's seem to focus on. Its to: "recognize the impact that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have had on history locally, nationally, and internationally." https://www.loc.gov/lgbt-pride-month/about/

The article you quoted is taken from the clip on MSNBC . The fact check link addresses that same clip and quote on MSNBC but I presume you know that and instead deflect. Here let me add some more for you: “The issue is that COVID-19 is not the same disease as it was 6 months ago. The delta variant is more contagious and requires higher levels of antibodies for killing it. Therefore, these videos tell only half the story,” Dr Buddy Creech, Associate Professor of Pediatrics, Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, Tennessee, told Reuters via email when presented with the claims. -

Why am I not surprised..................... Fact Check-Merged clips of CDC Director Rochelle Walensky discussing vaccine protection from severe COVID-19 are missing context Two merged clips of the Centre of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky discussing the protection from COVID-19 for those vaccinated in March 2021 and August 2021 are presented in a way that is missing context. The video places two clips side-by-side. Speaking on the Rachael Maddow show on MSNBC in March 2021, in the first clip Walensky said that CDC data showed that vaccinated people “don’t carry the virus” and “don’t get sick” (here). https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-walensky-clips-idUSL1N2PX1IZ -

Well he needs to find some replacements before this stress test, this is the second time the head of trust and safety has resigned. Twitter’s Head of Trust and Safety Resigns Twitter’s head of trust and safety, Ella Irwin, resigned from the company Thursday, she told The Wall Street Journal. Irwin’s departure is the second time someone in that role has left since Elon Musk bought the company in October. Yoel Roth, who had previously served as Twitter’s head of trust and safety, left the company in November, and Irwin subsequently took the top job overseeing user content and safety policies. https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/twitters-head-of-trust-and-safety-resigns-62c59299

No there is no evidence, there was one flawed study of Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria. That had so many holes they had to issue corrections and admissions that it was just a hypothesis. ROGD, this term has no clinical validation ROGD is currently not a formal mental health diagnosis The study consists of observations from parents, which only creates a hypothesis. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/what-is-rapid-onset-gender-dysphoria There is evidence to the contrary and plenty of it.

Of course but the gun nuts would rather blame just about anything else than the availability of so many killing machines. -

That link is for encounters not just crossings Encounters encompass two distinct kinds of events: apprehensions, in which migrants are taken into custody in the United States – at least temporarily – to await adjudication, and expulsions, in which migrants are immediately expelled to their home country or last country of transit without being held in U.S. custody.
