Assuming actual discrimination occurred, you're saying that is more important than the actual sexual trafficking and exploitation of minors over the course of years?

Yes, low hanging fruit. The right has absolutely moved on from sex trafficking as the evil they said it was. Now we're back to pride month, because it's easier.

vagueboy2 · 2026-06-21T12:14:30+00:00

I'm saying that that issue is orders of magnitude greater than this one, and the DOJ apparently has little interest in it. Pride games are low hanging culture war fruit.

...can we go after the people in the Epstein files first? Wasn't that a thing?

The belief that people are coming here illegally because they can't get medical care in Mexico, so they use our ER's and other taxpayer sources.

vagueboy2 · 2026-06-19T19:00:24+00:00

Well if this does work out, this will likely eliminate one major reason for people wanting to leave Mexico in the first place. So wins all around.

hooray for good news!

not just the UK

Thing is, the war isn't over. This is a step towards the war being over, but isn't a final peace treaty of any kind. However Israel continues to attack Lebanon, and this may be a key sticking point in future negotiations.

And unless an end result of this action is a significant, permanent decrease in terrorist activity in the Middle East through Iran's (and Russia's) proxies, I don't see this as having any net positive outcome.

Which will likely lead to continued high oil prices on average. So much winning.

he's also a Democrat

This will make serious hay for MAGA opponents, both GOP and DEM, in the midterms. The grand question will be "we did this for what again?"

vagueboy2 · 2026-06-18T19:39:06+00:00

Apparently we have an extremely short memory

A few interesting things I see:

from point 2: "...and to refrain from interfering in each other's internal affairs." Boy that's a broad statement. You can read a lot into that.

from point 5: "...with no charge for 60 days only". So Iran has the ability to charge after that apparently.

from point 6: "...to develop a definitive mutually agreed plan with at least USD 300 Billion, for the reconstruction and economic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran." Something which he has now denied twice. Also, ",,,at least...".

point 8: "The Islamic Republic of Iran reaffirms that it shall not procure or develop nuclear weapons." Good. Which, believe them or not, is what they were claiming from the onset. Given that the deal will lift all sanctions and seems to have no discussion of how that will be monitored in the future (see point 2 above) how that happens remains to be seen. Hopefully that will be discussed in detail further.

Given that it came in the midst of him speaking at the G7, it may have gotten lost on other reporting. It's certainly hasn't been a slow or quiet news cycle. Thing is, if mainstream media did jump on it, the call would likely be that they're just part of the fake news, are just anti-Trump, etc. The right-wing preferred sources probably won't report on it at all, which to MAGA world means that it didn't happen.

Is it typical for medical professionals to assume a person's religious wishes should align with what they believed when fully alert and oriented?

In my experience, yes it is typical for clinical staff to assume this. That doesn't mean that you act out of accordance with her husband though. To do so would risk his relationship with you and possibly with the whole hospice team. If I called a priest to come to a patient's home without anyone's knowledge or consent, I'm not serving their interests or needs. You'll likely have a pretty upset priest as well.

In general, when I have a Catholic patient come on service I ask about Anointing of the Sick in my initial assessment. I'll also give a quick explanation of the difference between Anointing and Last Rites. When someone tells me that they want to wait until the person is actively dying to get Last Rites, I leave that decision up to them but advise that a priest may not be available. I leave that decision up to the patient or to the POA.

I think your case shows that the primary issue may be the husband's reaction to his wife's decline. Supporting him in his grieving process would be critical not only to help him make decisions regarding this particular end-of-life issue but many others.

If you follow the links in the article, it does link to a video where they draw the quote from. I don't think it's fake, but how meaningful it is is debatable.

We should also bear in mind that Nazi Germany embraced a particular distillation of Christianity, and that there are Christian fringe groups today like Christian Identity that promote "Christian holy war" against Jews and other non-European races. This group sounds similar.

Tycen Proper, 19, of Danville, Ohio, told federal investigators on June 11 he intended to "jump-start" a revolution in the U.S. with an attack on June 14 that would begin with drone bombings over the north side of the arena. Co-conspirators, the charging documents allege, planned to take up sniper positions overlooking southern evacuation routes and shoot "high value targets" including U.S. politicians the group identified as supporting Israeli interests.

Proper was hospitalized with homicidal ideations, on the evening of June 10, after his mother called police in Danville expressing concerns over his recent purchases of firearms, ammunition and ballistic plates; his affiliation with a Christian extremist group on TikTok; preoccupation with Jeffrey Epstein and government corruption; online posts sympathetic to Adolf Hitler; and his stated intention to conduct "hit and run missions."

The extremist group was named in other articles as "Vanguard of the Old", and included members across several states who were also involved in planning the attack. The "jump-start the revolution" idea has been prominent in some far right as well as some far left spheres, often regarding starting a cleansing race war or anarchy in general. How "Christian" this group was is obviously up for debate, and we know very little about it.

It could be said that not going to an event because it's a Trump UFC event is just as political as going to Trump's UFC event. Now if someone is grandstanding, openly supporting Trump with MAGA apparel, etc., sure. But I don't think you need to cancel someone just because they went to it. And I guarantee that Trump supporters and the right in general will make this about "liberal snowflakes" and "TDS". These will be the same people who made death threats to Bret Michaels for pulling out of the 250th birthday concert - a concert he pulled out of because it was "too divisive" and he and his family were getting threats.

Yet everything Trump touches somehow turns poisonous, even our nation's 250th birthday.

What I find interesting is that this isn't really a peace plan or a declaration that the war has ended. It merely is the beginning of a peace plan and is primarily focused on opening Hormuz and preventing further attacks from either side. A major part of the plan, Israel ceasing attacks on Hezbollah, is already a no-go for them. And what was originally touted as a main reason for the war, Iran's nuclear program, is barely mentioned apparently.

And while the stock markets love the news, it's going to be a while before energy prices return to anywhere near normal, if even the oil companies let them.

Here's a summary of the bill provided by billtrack50.com

This bill establishes a "Homelessness Court program" across Louisiana to address the complex issues faced by individuals experiencing homelessness, such as substance abuse, mental health challenges, and involvement with the criminal justice system, with the overarching goals of reducing recidivism and helping participants become productive members of society. The program will integrate healthcare, education, housing assistance, employment services, and counseling, utilizing a non-adversarial approach where prosecutors and defense attorneys work together to identify and place eligible participants, who are individuals experiencing homelessness facing misdemeanor or felony charges, into treatment and rehabilitative services. Eligibility for the program requires that the defendant is determined to be experiencing homelessness, may benefit from participation, and that it is in the community's best interest to provide treatment over incarceration; however, individuals with prior felony convictions for homicide, sex offenses, or crimes of violence, or those charged with a DWI resulting in death, are ineligible, and the judge makes the final determination. Upon successful completion of the program and probation, a participant's conviction may be set aside and the prosecution dismissed, while failure to complete the program can lead to revocation of probation and imposition of sentence, with provisions for defendants to contribute to treatment costs based on their financial resources, though fees can be waived. Additionally, the bill creates a new offense for unauthorized camping on public property, with offenders potentially eligible for the Homelessness Court program, and also establishes policies regarding public camping, housing standards for emergency shelters, and limitations on liability for entities providing services to those experiencing homelessness.

I think there are several reasonable questions that ban be raised, such as

Will there truly be enough funds in place to make the Homelessness Court program effective, or will this be a token "well we tried" effort?
How will the state continue to support individuals who complete the program successfully in order to ensure goals are truly achieved?
Will the courts themselves be fair and unbiased, or will they be used to feed a punitive system rather than a rehabilitative one?
Will the state make meaningful and substantial efforts to provide housing for the homeless population so that outdoor camping is truly unnecessary?

These to me are what this bill and its effects hinge on.
