The Dow drops by 1,000 and the Red and Blue teams are out here pointing the finger at each other saying who had the worst economy, meanwhile leftists are sitting here reminding everyone that the problem is capitalism, which only benefits Wall St and the 1% and sucks for the rest of us.

It's the system, stupid.

Democrats tell Jill Stein supporters that we're going to split the vote.

Yes we are. We'll split the vote from genocide, split the vote from fracking, split the vote from endless proxy wars and split the vote from record military budgets.

Deal with it or get a better candidate.

Ben Shapiro should be deported and forced to join the IDF


@benshapiro

Iran was contained, deterred and increasingly isolated by the burgeoning Sunni-Israeli alliance while Trump was president. Iran is unconstrained and aggressively threatening American assets and allies all over the region under Biden-Harris. That is not a coincidence.

NEW: Wall Street is buying up neighborhoods across the U.S.

In 2022, big investors bought more than 1 in 4 single family homes sold nationwide.

It’s wrecking the housing market, driving up rents, and making it nearly impossible for working people to afford to buy a home.

@Jaybefaunt

Every person on this planet owes Henrietta Lacks a thank you. Happy belated birthday, Ms. Lacks.


@AfricanArchives

On this day in 1920, Henrietta Lacks was born.

Her cells were taken without her knowledge in 1951 and became one of the most important tools in medicine. They became vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, in vitro fertilization & more.

A THREAD

[2 Images of Henrietta]

p1:

p2:

Henrietta Lacks was black woman who unknowingly was the source of cells (from her cancerous tumor) which were cultured by George Otto Gey to create the 1st known human immortal cell line for medical research.

rp1:

The Diagnosis:

On January 29, 1951, Henrietta went to Johns Hopkins Hospital because she felt a knot inside her. It all started when she asked her cousins to feel her belly, asking if they felt the lump that she did. Her cousins assumed correctly that she was pregnant.

But, after giving birth to her fifth child, Joseph, Henrietta started bleeding abnormally and profusely. Her local doctor tested her for syphilis, which came back negative, and referred her to Johns Hopkins.

Johns Hopkins was their only choice for a hospital, since it was the only one in proximity to them that treated black patients. Howard Jones, her new doctor, examined Henrietta and the lump in her cervix.

He cut off a small part of the tumor and sent it to the pathology lab. Soon after, Jones discovered she had a malignant epidermoid carcinoma of the cervix Stage 1 (cervical cancer).

rp5:

Lacks was treated with radium tube inserts, which were sewn in place. After several days in place, the tubes were removed and she was released from hospital with instructions to return for X-ray treatments as a follow-up.

rp6:

During her radiation treatments for the tumor, two samples of Henrietta's cervix were removed— a healthy part and a cancerous part— WITHOUT HER PERMISSION.

The cells from her cervix were given to Dr. George Otto Gey. These cells would eventually become the HeLa immortal cell line, a commonly used cell line in biomedical research.

Lacks returned for the X-ray treatments. However, her condition worsened and the Hopkins doctors treated her with antibiotics, thinking that her problem might be complicated by an underlying venereal disease (she had neurosyphilis & presented with acute gonorrhea at one point).

Death:

In significant pain and without improvement, Lacks returned to Hopkins on August 8th for a treatment session but asked to be admitted. She remained at the hospital until her death at the age of 31.

James Baldwin

American writer (1924–1987)

James Arthur Baldwin was an American writer and civil rights activist who garnered acclaim for his essays, novels, plays, and poems. His 1953 novel Go Tell It on the Mountain has been ranked by TIME magazine as one of the top 100 English-language novels. His 1955 essay collection Notes of a Native Son helped establish his reputation as a voice for human equality. Baldwin was an influential public figure and orator, especially during the civil rights movement in the United States. Baldwin's fiction posed fundamental personal questions and dilemmas amid complex social and psychological pressures. Themes of masculinity, sexuality, race, and class intertwine to create intricate narratives that influenced both the civil rights movement and the gay liberation movement in mid-twentieth century America. Baldwin's protagonists are often, but not exclusively African American; gay and bisexual men feature prominently in his work.

@RealCandaceO

So it’s been confirmed Israel is raping and torturing Palestinian detainees—why are Christians silent on this?

I’ll tell you why.

Plus, I weigh in on that ‘ballerina farm’ interview, and Trump vs. black reporters.

@ajamubaraka

This is how fascism consumes itself. Israeli society has gone mad with the U.S. not too far behind.


@TorahJudaism

Today, Zionists set fire to the house of a prominent Jewish anti-Zionist activist in Mea Shearim, a Jewish neighborhood of Jerusalem, while his family was inside the house.

The only crime of this family was that they were religious and opposed Zionism and Israel.

ELON: SPACEX HAS A HIGH SIGNAL-TO-NOISE RATIO

“It’s structured like a Silicon Valley technology company, because that's how I know how to structure companies.

It worked well the first two times, so hopefully the third time as well.

It's a very flat hierarchy.

It's installed in fairly densely packed cubes.

We have a fairly small engineering team, but they're really, really top engineers in their field.

And we have what I call a high signal-to-noise ratio, where signal is engineering and management is noise.

And I think a lot of big aerospace companies have a very bad signal-to-noise ratio.”

Despite the company’s ties to California dating to the 1870s, the 2nd largest oil producer in the U.S has announced it is moving its headquarters to Houston.

California sued Chevron and other large oil companies last year, claiming that they misled the public about the risks of fossil fuels.

Chevron’s move will be effective on Jan. 1
