Exactly, US weapons are being used by these fanatics to indiscriminately kill women and children. The Israeli leadership basically thought the world and public opinion would just fall in line as the US and West has tended to, given them cover. The dehumanization of an entire people is something they've been getting away for decades. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/campaigns/2017/06/israel-occupation-50-years-of-dispossession/

Ben-Gvir and his ilk, dangerous fanatics.
Sure, pasteurization works. But then there's the forest...
A multi-state outbreak of HPAI A(H5N1) bird flu in dairy cows was first reportedon March 25, 2024. This is the first time that these bird flu viruses were found in cattle. CDC confirmed one human HPAI A(H5N1) infection that had exposure to dairy cattle in Texas that were presumed to be infected with the virus. While thought to be rare, this exposure to HPAI A(H5N1) bird flu virus is the first instance of likely mammal to human transmission.
Yes, but they will not be the only ones affected. Mutations and transmissions are not so tidy.
In case you are being serious, and didn't read the article. Cats were not made to drink infected milk. They were found infected with H5N1 on a farm after drinking raw milk from cows.
Mammal-to-mammal transmission raises new concerns about the virus's ability to spread.
On March 16, cows on a Texas dairy farm began showing symptoms of a mysterious illness now known to be H5N1 bird flu. Their symptoms were nondescript, but their milk production dramatically dropped and turned thick and creamy yellow. The next day, cats on the farm that had consumed some of the raw milk from the sick cows also became ill. While the cows would go on to largely recover, the cats weren't so lucky. They developed depressed mental states, stiff body movements, loss of coordination, circling, copious discharge from their eyes and noses, and blindness. By March 20, over half of the farm's 24 or so cats died from the flu. ...
The early outbreak data from the Texas farm suggests the virus is getting better and better at jumping to mammals, and data from elsewhere shows the virus is spreading widely in its newest host. On March 25, the US Department of Agriculture confirmed the presence of H5N1 in a dairy herd in Texas, marking the first time H5N1 had ever been known to cross over to cows. Since then, the USDA has tallied infections in at least 34 herds in nine states: Texas, Kansas, Michigan, New Mexico, Idaho, Ohio, South Dakota, North Carolina, and Colorado.
The fines are a joke, they seem to be stuck in time like living wages.
Miami-Dade Schools PD "The largest school police department in the nation"
I'm surprised it took this long. Cellphones should be placed in lockers or into classroom size cellphone holder/chargers that many schools use when they enter class if they are not asked to keep it in their lockers all day, save lunch.
Surprised by some of the comments, def not teachers but sound like folks who might die if you were to separate them from their phones.
Cellphones in classrooms are a problem and shouldn't be allowed whether that's 100% enforceable or not.
I suspect your downvotes might be from folks misunderstanding originalism.
"a legal philosophy that the words in documents and especially the U.S. Constitution should be interpreted as they were understood at the time they were written"
It's like religion stating everything we ever needed to know was written thousands of years ago and we should just apply it like we were living in those times.

Barrett is a self-proclaimed originalist, embracing a theory of the Constitution that is also shared by at least two other sitting justices: Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch.
Greed on Capitol Hill is not new and a huge problem. Big tech does need to get broken up. But are you trying to say TikTok and ByteDance and their backers are small corporations and mom and pop shops??
Scrutiny over ByteDance expanded further after the government took a 1% stake in its local subsidiary Beijing ByteDance Technology in 2019 that awarded the Chinese government a board seat at the subsidiary. https://www.inc.com/reuters/what-you-need-to-know-about-tiktoks-chinese-parent-company-bytedance.html
About 60% of ByteDance is owned by global institutional investors such as Carlyle Group, General Atlantic, and Susquehanna International Group,"
