I need a kidney.
A direct match would need to be blood type A+/-, though donors with other blood types could qualify for a swap.
Call my transplant center at (800) 633-9906, option 4, for information on how to get tested

An obvious case of corprate lawyers at major media deciding that the truth is too dangerous and must be softened.
The issue is NOT that a single Democratic Senator stated that Hegseth is hiding the true cost of the war in Iran. The REAL story is simply that Hegseth is hiding the truth.

This would move public opinion quite dramatically against the death penalty. There is a reason that states do not broadcast their executions. They know that public sentiment would quickly shift.

Seems like another AI “discovery” where AI might just have stolen previous human research and is pretending it’s a new breakthrough.

We talked about: the "government is lying to you"
It may sound saucy. It may sound like opinion
But it's just true
And if something is true then you should just say it, clearly

Hey, here's a random thought: maybe all of us who are Democrats and progressives should pause attacks on each other for the next three weeks and focus on beating Republicans. I promise our arguments will be so much more interesting in January after a blue tsunami.
