Harris is going to lose the presidential race because her current administration will not stop arming Israel. It will not be the fault of 3rd party voters or nonvoters or leftists. It will be the fault of a bloodthirsty genocide-loving POTUS and VP.

"..very few people who are not sick with #LongCovid are aware of it, want to know about it, believe in it, or even acknowledge that it’s happening.  Sadly, many in the medical profession fall within that group of non and disbelievers." — @longcovidtheanswers #MedTwitter

Saying that she will “always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself” is not only a commitment to continuing the genocide of Palestinians but it also means Israel can kill US citizens with impunity—just days after Aysenur Ezgi Eygi was shot in the head by an IDF sniper.

NEW article from me: An in-depth investigation into corruption in the Maryland's medical examiner's office under David Fowler, including pro-police bias, unscientific findings, and unorthodox reporting methods. 1/

Dr. Fowler became notorious in 2021, when he testified that George Floyd wasn't necessarily killed by police. He had run Maryland's ME's office for 17 years. The state promised an investigation limiting it to only 100 cases. Three years later, no news. 2/ theappeal.org/maryland-ocme-…

I examine numerous ways that MD MEs covered up deaths in police custody, including "excited delirium" rulings - and hiding excited delirium findings behind other official causes. I also look at questionable "suicide" and "natural" death findings in police custody and jails. 4/

New: The regulations will force health insurance plans to collect and report more data on how they limit and deny mental health claims. ProPublica’s reporting has found that insurers regularly shortchange patients seeking treatment. propublica.org/article/biden-…

The broad discovery is that there are far more than 100 cases that need to be closely reviewed by the state. The experts, attorneys, and activists I spoke to agree that the damage is being contained by state agencies concerned about the fallout. 5/
