State of Nebraska now recruiting UNVACCINATED NURSES, on purpose.

No COVID shots required: Ricketts behind Nebraska ads for nurses

The governor made the choice to pursue nurses opposed to vaccine mandates after the region’s top hospital systems announced the vaccine requirement, a spokesperson confirmed.


Yahoo news video at the following link explains Nebraska's governor, Pete Ricketts is recruiting unvaccinated nurses to work at Nebraska veterans' homes and hospitals as well as other state nursing jobs such as, presumably home health and public health.

Afghanistan fell because the MEN of Afghanistan prefer the Taliban.

Afghanistan never could have fallen with the speed and efficiency that it did without overwhelmingly strong local support. The men of Afghanistan were "standing back and standing by," ready to join the religio-fascist Taliban at the very first moment of opportunity.

The men of Afghanistan chose to resign their daughters to a life of sexual slavery and abject oppression.

Today George Floyd rises again, from the ashes of oppression, into power.

In the only kind of life after death that I believe in, and the only kind I believe to be meritorious, his life is resurrected. It's too early yet to know exactly how expansive and quickly changes on the horizon may come, but they are coming.

The defense would have had us remember Mr. Floyd as the physical manifestation of dark, seedy alleyway full of drugs and bad intentions. The barren and ugly vision they peddled is thankfully not what history will enter.

Mr. Floyd will be remembered as an ordinary man who, like all of us had good times and bad. He was loved by so many in his ordinary life, and in his extraordinary death he did just as his daughter said when she told our President, "Daddy changed the world."


Rest in power Mr. Floyd, a mournful grateful world pauses in your honor today, as we steady ourselves for the work ahead tomorrow.

We've lost the line . . we've lost the line . . . I'm bawling now.

For those not watching, they just played the audio of an officer calling out a warning to his fellow officers, he's clearly in tears/grief because they couldn't hold the line and telling others to retreat for safety and that finally just did it. I can't stop crying now.

I hurt so much for the brave people who suffered so horribly in defense of our democracy, and I'm afraid of the rage I hold for the fucking Trump bastards I see flying their TRAITORS flags on my way to work every day.
