This story begins in early January, way back when Sessions was still on Donald Trump’s good side and was the president-elect’s nominee for attorney general.
Sessions, a hard-line conservative whose nomination as a federal judge had been rejected by the Senate back in the 1980s over concerns about his views on race, had drawn opposition from civil rights organizations and progressive groups concerned about his positions. Fairooz, a retired librarian and demonstrator associated with the group Code Pink, was seated in the audience for his Senate confirmation hearing.
While introducing Sessions, Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) claimed his colleague had a “clear and well-documented” record of “treating all Americans equally under the law.” Fairooz found that laughable. So she laughed.
A rookie Capitol Hill police officer who had never made an arrest nor guarded a congressional hearing before then decided to take Fairooz into custody. Fairooz objected, at first questioning why she was being arrested, then voicing her opposition to Sessions as multiple officers escorted her from the room.
Known to me as rich boys’ hatchet man, doing his bidding, fire Preet! OK it will be done, Fire Comey! OK it will be done. Now chase down a girl that dared to laugh at your magnificently powerful ass, just a girl. (little dictator likes beating up girls).
A sick man with too much power but rich boy considers him to be his kind.
King Tut of the Injustice Dept. FLUSH!

This is nutz! Yesterday, the official high temp in my daughter’s area of San Francisco hit 103ºF
It is, as I type this, 93.6ºF at that location. And…it’s not even noon.
What happened to the “Air-Conditioned City?”

Round trip was only 50 minutes, maybe because the temperature is down to 90 °F.
Day 7: 349+50=399 minutes.

The gift that keeps on giving, Salmonella.
After eating at the Canteen at Mather Hospital I pooped for two weeks like a fire hose.
Now that it is wrapping up I have developed Reactive Arthritis in my right knee swelling it to the size of a large orange with associated pain and stiffness, nice.
There are more things that could come including urethritis{sic}, and conjunctivitis, oh boy.
“The specific triad of arthritis, conjunctivitis, and urethritis was known as Reiter’s Syndrome. In many patients, however, only one or two of these symptoms many be present, such as arthritis and urethritis or arthritis and conjunctivitis. [1] A reactive arthritis may develop after a person eats food that has been tainted with the pathogenic bacteria.”LINK
The misery continues, only the days change.

Yup! Still a huge problem and getting worse. Patients and families blame the hospitals but it’s CMS and Medicare.
Hospitalized patients need strong advocates – while in the hospital! Before “admitting” insist on inpatient status, be a nuisance, get it in writing, don’t take a brush off as answer! If they won’t designate inpatient, tell them you’re leaving! If they say it’s too risky for the patient’s outcome/health, then say well…fucking admit as impatient then!!!!!!

SEPTEMBER 2, 2017
SEOUL, South Korea — A seismic tremor was detected near an underground nuclear test site in North Korea on Sunday, prompting a scramble to determine if the North had conducted a sixth nuclear test in a direct challenge to President Trump.
If the North has tested another nuclear device, it would be an extraordinary show of defiance by North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, against Mr. Trump, who has warned he would unleash “fire and fury” against North Korea if Pyongyang continued to threaten the United States with nuclear missiles.
