Can anyone make sense of today's "split decision", over the Texas abortion law?

Yes. The court ruled that the SB8 is a legal law, but can still be challenged in court. It also determined that abortion providers can file challenges to the law, but only against the agencies and officials that license them.

I guess this could go in the official spread of covid 19 thread..since it's an official plan to spread covid 19....hey, question for a friend, when can we suggest that these domestic terrorists are suicide bombers?  That they've been radicalized to the point of being willing to infect themselves with a biological agent in order to use it as a weapon to bring about the fall of american democracy.  They're the ones who kept telling us it was a weapon..weren't they....?

Do the hospitals get to stop accepting covid patients?

Employees at the candle factory destroyed in a tornado Friday told NBC News they wanted to leave when they heard warning sirens go off, but were told they’d be fired for leaving their shifts early.

The Mayfield Consumer Products factory in Western Kentucky was leveled by the tornado late Friday night. Employees were on-site working the overnight shift manufacturing scented candles.

NBC reports that as employees got word of the approaching storm and tornado sirens began to sound, as many as 15 asked to be let off the job early to seek safety at home. Their requests were reportedly denied.

Atheists Among The Most Likely To Be Vaccinated

Although some anti-vaxxers identify as liberal or progressive, the vast majority of people who have been angrily railing against COVID-19 vaccines in the United States have been far-right white evangelical fundamentalists, Christian nationalists and MAGA Republicans. And recent has found that atheists have some of the United States’ highest COVID-19 vaccination rates.

It's almost as if there's a connection between religion and stupidity, but you won't catch me saying so.

Smollett is almost certainly guilty by the way

One loons opinion? https://blacklivesmatter.com/statement-r...-smollett/  It's up on the official BLM website and they are endorsing what the co-founder of BLM LA had to say. Black Lives Matter is officially Q-Anon :  Vaush just took a massive dump on BLM. BLM played themselves and I was proven right about them. "Black lives matter" as a statement by protesters is commendable however. At least we can agree on that. BLM the organization, however, is now officially Q-Anon.
