Fetterman Had A Stroke. What’s Mehmet Oz’s Excuse?
First of all, whose idea was it to make last night’s Fetterman/Oz debate into a 30-minute lightning round — like a game show?
It made both candidates look worse, and did not serve anyone!Whoever was in charge of this one did a really shitty job. OZ was a transparent huckster who doesn’t believe in much of anything other than winning.
“I never sold weight loss products as described in those commercials,” Oz said.
Bullshit! You shilled for them, and you made money as a result.
The Dr. Oz rule: If he’s on TV he’s lying.
Fetterman supports Roe. v Wade
not OZ
Your Body, Your Choice, NOT anyone else’s choice and *definitely* not Dr. Oz’s
“Holy shit: OZ SAYS his abortion position: should be between “a woman, her doctor, and local political leaders” #PASenDebate
Dr. Oz literally said tonight that he wants “local political leaders” (like his buddy Doug Mastriano) to decide whether or not women have access to safe + legal abortions That is EXTREME
One televised debate will not stop people from remembering how Dr. Oz has lied, misled, and belittled everyday people.
OZ: “I’ve been very clear as a physician not to interfere with what states decide.” Oz‘s sidekick, the GOP candidate for governor Doug Mastriano, wants to ban ALL abortions even in cases of rape, incest, & the life of a woman in PA.
The NYT right-wing media is framing the debate as about what Fetterman has to prove.
“Fetterman’s Debate Challenges: Selling Policies and Proving He’s Fit to Serve” This speaks to the major partisan asymmetry between the right-wing and mainstream media.
Dr. Oz expressed support for a radical GOP plan that would threaten Medicare + Social Security’s very existence.

NOW THAT BIDEN GOT HEARING AIDS FOR EVERYONE
Maybe seniors will now be able to hear Republicans saying how they are going to take away their Social Security and Medicaid.
HEARING AIDS:
Americans can buy hearing aids over the counter, without a prescription or exam. Thanks to the Biden-Harris administration, Americans are going to start seeing hearing aids on their store shelves. The FDA estimates this is going to save patients as much as $3,000 per pair. Because of Biden, they are now going to cost about $200 bucks.
The WH keep getting shit done while the @GOP keep standing in the way of innovation. Both parties are NOT the same.
“yes, I will choose the guy recovering from a stroke over the smug out-of-touch fake-diet-pill-pushing lickspittle carpetbag jackass liar who says the government should be all up in women’s wombs, why do you ask”
Oz is a doctor like Jeffery Dahmer was just a gourmet chef.
I suppose it was just a matter of time before fanboy Joe Scarborough would invite Todd Rundgren onto Morning Joe. When I saw him on my teevee this morning, I was in a state of disbelief. But Todd, the Ultimate Artist, did not disappoint!

Violence is a quest for identity — Marshall McLuhan
The Secret Service waited 4 hours to notify Police about death threats made against Nancy Pelosi. They waited 1 hour to notify police about death threats made against Chuck Schumer. And they deleted their J6 texts after being ordered to turn them over to an oversight Committee. I am sure they know the agents in question. Terminate all of them. The Secret Service needs to clean house!
*That’s cuz they are sucking Trump’s eenie weenie teenie orange peenie
Today is a good day to point out that @SecretService is compromised and should be stood down from executive protection until they clean house .
“Don’t know, Bobert says she left the chambers.”
“How bout Schumer? Is he dead?”
“Hope so. I hate that prick.”
“Stand by! Report incoming!”
“Die, libtards, DIE!”
“They got out! They got away! They’re certifying TONIGHT!”
“Delete, delete, DELETE!”

Lawsuit against L’Oreal, beauty companies alleges hair straightening products cause uterine cancer
“L’Oreal must be held accountable for specifically marketing chemical hair straighteners that contain carcinogenic properties and hazardous chemicals to Black women — without any regard for their health complications.” Black women are more likely to use chemical hair straightening products. Filed on October 21 in Illinois, the suit comes on the heels of a new National Institutes of Health study that found frequent chemical hair straightening doubled the risk of developing uterine cancer among women compared with those who did not use the products.

Immune system-evading hybrid virus observed for first time
Two common respiratory viruses can fuse to form a hybrid virus capable of evading the human immune system, and infecting lung cells – the first time such viral cooperation has ever been observed.
“This kind of hybrid virus has never been described before,” said Prof Pablo Murcia, who supervised the research, published in Nature Microbiology. “We are talking about viruses from two completely different families combining together with the genomes and the external proteins of both viruses. It is a new type of virus pathogen.” “It is another reason to avoid getting infected with multiple viruses, because this [hybridisation] is likely to happen all the more if we don’t take precautions to protect our health.”
Researchers believe the findings could help to explain why co-infections can lead to significantly worse disease for some patients, including hard-to-treat viral pneumonia.
People who had mild Covid had increased risk of blood clots: UK study People who caught mild cases of Covid-19 during the first year of the pandemic had a higher risk of developing blood clots than those who were not infected, according to a large study published by British scientists this week.
Patients with mild Covid, defined as those not hospitalized, were 2.7 times more likely to develop blood clots, according to the study published in the British Medical Journal’s Heart on Monday. They were also 10 times more likely to die than people who did not have Covid.

Sleep apnea device recall fuels frustration as replacement effort expected to drag into 2023 A massive recall of millions of sleep apnea machines has stoked anger and frustration among patients, and U.S. officials are weighing unprecedented legal action to speed a replacement effort that is set to drag into next year. Philips initially estimated it could repair or replace the units within a year. But with the recall expanding to more than 5 million devices worldwide, the Dutch company now says the effort will stretch into 2023.

The 2000 Presidential Election: Why Gore Lost
https://www.uvm.edu/~dguber/POLS125/articles/pomper.htm
The 2000 Presidential Election: Why Gore Lost by GERALD M. POMPER
Political Science Quarterly, Summer 2001, volume 116, issue 2, page 201
The presidential election of 2000 stands at best as a paradox, at worst as a scandal, of American democracy. Democrat Albert Gore won the most votes, a half million more than his Republican opponent George W. Bush, but lost the presidency in the electoral college by a count of 271-267. Even this count was suspect, dependent on the tally in Florida, where many minority voters were denied the vote, ballots were confusing, and recounts were mishandled and manipulated. The choice of their leader came not from the citizens of the nation, but from lawyers battling for five weeks. The final decision was made not by 105 million voters, but by a 5-4 majority of the unelected U.S. Supreme Court, issuing a tainted and partisan verdict.
That decision ended the presidential contest, and George W. Bush now heads the conservative restoration to power, buttressed by thin party control of both houses of Congress. The election of 2000, however, will not fade. It encapsulates the political forces shaping the United States at the end of the twentieth century. Its controversial results will affect the nation for many years of the new era.
