"[Putin] goes out and receives some kind of medical treatment between those sections." Steele also said that Putin is "constantly accompanied around the place by a team of doctors."

U.S. healthcare is now a solid week into the CT contrast shortage of ’22, and common themes are emerging in adaptations at local hospitals and imaging centers. One is the wisdom of making up-or-down contrast and scanning decisions one patient at a time rather than as a blanket short-term policy.
Another is the commonsense call to reserve inventory for patients most in need while avoiding use of the term rationing.
A third might be the fingers-crossed expectation that the shortage will not drag on to where it becomes a crisis.
McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas could become Harry Reid International as soon as September, a Clark County official said today. The county could conduct a ceremony and put up a new sign this fall to mark the renaming of the airport for the former longtime U.S. senator from Nevada, said Commissioner Tick Segerblom, a leading advocate for the renaming. The County Commission unanimously voted in February to rename the county-owned and operated airport for Democrat Reid, a Searchlight native who spent more than 30 years in Washington, mostly as a senator but also as a U.S. representative. He was Senate majority leader from 2007 to 2015.
Famed Borscht Belt comedian Jackie Mason, who rose from a modest childhood on the Lower East Side to become one of the most famous funnymen of all time, has died. He was 93. Mason died at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan Saturday, with his wife Jyll and a few friends by his side, longtime pal and lawyer Raoul Felder told The Post. There will be a small, private funeral service Sunday in New York, said Felder, who declined to name the location. A larger, public memorial service is expected at a later date, the lawyer noted.
There is a great deal of manipulation and falsehood in media presentation of the 2020 election. These lies and false constructs generate a great deal of anxiety. That said, there are two specific approaches by the narrative engineers that deserve a strong reminder. The first purposeful approach media use to create and embed their false assumptions is a slight of hand that few notice, and it can create anxiety. In normal term-two election cycles the baseline for media analysis should be the incumbent electoral win in term one. T

‘highly-addictive substance’ resurfaces in community 8 replies
KENOSHA, Wis. — Police in Wisconsin have issued a “warning” about a “highly addictive substance” that has recently resurfaced. The Kenosha Police Department says the substance is commonly known as “Thin Mints,” “Peanut Butter Patties,” “Thanks-A-Lot,” “Peanut Butter Sandwich,” “Shortbread” and “S’mores.” They say that young girls run the operation and get customers with a “good cause story.” Police say if you come in contact with any of these addictive cookies, you can drop them off at the department. Officers are “happy to assist with proper disposal.”
Cory Booker ends 2020 presidential campaign

Sen. Cory Booker announced Monday that he will end his campaign after failing to qualify for the Democratic debate planned for Tuesday in Iowa. "It was a difficult decision to make, but I got in this race to win, and I've always said I wouldn't continue if there was no longer a path to victory," Booker said in an email to supporters Monday. The New Jersey Democrat's announcement came a day before six presidential candidates will participate in the CNN/Des Moines Register's debate in Des Moines, Iowa. He did not qualify for the event. It also came as the Senate gears up for the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump.
WASHINGTON — Rep. Lizzie Fletcher’s first bill — a measure meant to cut away federal red tape and speed up disaster recovery funding — passed the House nearly unanimously, with just seven votes against it and some of the chamber’s most conservative members joining the freshman Democrat in pushing the legislation forward.
The next day, Fletcher voted to impeach President Donald Trump — a move Republicans are dead-set on making sure overshadows all else Fletcher has done in her rather effective first year in Congress.
Some 30 House Republicans on Wednesday stormed their way into a closed-door hearing in a secure House Intelligence Committee meeting room to rip the Democrat-led impeachment inquiry against President Trump. The pro-Trump lawmakers, led by Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, barged into the sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) where Deputy Assistant Defense Secretary Laura Cooper was giving a deposition. ”Let us in!”
When a big event happens anywhere in the country, sometimes anywhere in the world, a San Antonio connection somehow emerges. Sometimes it’s found deep in the details. Sometimes it has been there all along, hiding in plain sight. All too often, it comes with bad news. So it was with the death this week of Congressman Elijah Cummings, whose storied political career began when he fought to desegregate a Baltimore swimming pool. He was 11. In his last hours, as the chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, one of three panels leading impeachment investigations of President Donald Trump, Cummings signed two subpoenas.
The Democrat-led House Intelligence Committee has released the whistleblower complaint that triggered President Trump's impeachment inquiry. The complaint cites “multiple White House officials with direct knowledge of the call" between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and accuses Trump of attempting “to pressure the Ukranian leader to take actions to help the President’s 2020 reelection bid.” It also presents allegations that the White House tried to "restrict access" to records of the call.
"In the days following the phone call, I learned from multiple U.S. officials that senior White House officials had intervened to 'lock down' all records of the phone call, .
A top CEO calls out Trump's racism
31 replies
London - The CEO of German industrial giant Siemens says that President Donald Trump is becoming a symbol of intolerance following his attacks on four female members of Congress. "I find it depressing that the most important political office in the world is turning into the face of racism and exclusion," Joe Kaeser said Saturday on Twitter. Kaeser's remarks are the most prominent criticism from the business world in reaction to Trump's rally last week in North Carolina. The US president attacked Somali-born Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar and the crowd chanted "Send her back! Send her back!"

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi reportedly received communion during a Sunday mass despite her archbishop banning her from the practice, Politico Playbook reported Monday.
Pelosi reportedly took Holy Communion at the 9 a.m. mass at the Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Georgetown, according to Politico Playbook.

How Stupid Is Whoopi Goldberg, Really?
44 replies
That’s not a rhetorical question, by the way.
Seriously, it’s hard not to wonder how it’s possible that Whoopi Goldberg fancies herself to be an authoritative voice on current events. Quite frankly, I can’t understand how that happened. She says a lot of dumb things. Like on Monday, she went into hysterics about the archbishop of San Francisco banning Nancy Pelosi from Holy Communion in his diocese over her pro-abortion views. “The archbishop of San Francisco is calling for speaker Nancy Pelosi to be denied receiving Communion because of her pro-choice stance,” Goldberg noted. “This is not your job, dude.
Former President Bill Clinton defended Joe Biden's dismal poll ratings on Monday, insisting his successor in the White House was motivated less by popularity than getting the job done.The chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, an immigration crisis and spiraling inflation have sent Biden's approval ratings into freefall.
The result is a Democratic Party fearing the worst in November's midterm elections.
But Clinton offered a rosier view, claiming the president ad delivered on his campaign promise to turn the corner on the COVID-19 pandemic and restore the U.S. to its rightful place in the world.
Republican Rep. Liz Cheney warned that Donald Trump is a threat to the United States the likes of which 'we have never faced before' in a Sunday evening speech. Wyoming's lone House Representative was among the recipients for this year's John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Awards.Her acceptance speech drew parallels between the Civil War and last year's US Capitol attack in the pivotal tests they presented for the country's democratic institutions. Cheney discussed the historic importance of a peaceful transfer of power - which she said 'has been honored by every American president, except one' -
Out of touch as ever, President Biden celebrated record-high gas prices Monday, gushing that the pump pain was part of “an incredible transition” of the US economy away from fossil fuels. “[When] it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over,” Biden said during a press conference in Japan following his meeting with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.The president then insisted that his administration’s actions, rather than increasing the price of gas, had actually been able to “keep it
Fayetteville, Ark.—Walmart will remove its ice cream, commemorating Juneteenth amid growing backlash. Photos of the product recently surfaced on social media. "Share and celebrate African-American culture, emancipation and enduring hope," the label read.

Fox News' former chief political correspondent has joined a chorus of voices calling for serious repercussions against Tucker Carlson - one of the network's most prominent voices. Carl Cameron was asked: 'Do you think the Murdoch family in charge of Fox will ever pull the plug on Tucker?' during an interview with CNN's Jim Acosta on Saturday.Cameron, 60, went on to compare Carlson's broadcasts to falsely shouting fire in a crowded movie theater.

It’s time to drop the words “fake news,” “hoax,” and any other descriptor short of blatant and purposeful lies, in reference to Hillary Clinton’s engineering, oversight, and final approval of releasing to the sock-puppet media a preposterous fairy tale that even the worst of armchair sleuths could spot as complete bullcrap. Why do I make such a “bold” statement? When even the Wall Street Journal editorial board publishes a blistering editorial titled Hillary Clinton Did It, in which it calls Clinton’s lies a “dirty trick for the ages,” that is newsworthy. Are you listening, Hillary The Russia-Trump collusion narrative of 2016 and beyond was a dirty trick for the ages,

Pence added that he and his wife, Karen Pence, would act on prayer, stating, “We’ll go where we’re called. … That’s the way Karen and I have always approached these things.”Pence also told the Times
A Disney World vacation was once seen as the tradition getaway for the American middle class family, but it is increasingly slipping out of reach.Over the past few years, the prices of tickets for the amusement park have skyrocketed as executives continue to raise the price of food and begin catering to higher-paying clientele. To make matters worse, Disney executives are eliminate cost-saving features at the theme parks, like a free shuttle from the airport and free parking for those staying on the premises.It has also done away with a free option to help people skip the ever-growing lines at certain rides - replacing it instead with a pay service.
On Friday, San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore J. Cordileone penned a notice telling Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) that, because of her pro-choice stance, she will not be permitted to take receive Holy Communion. Well, this absolutely triggered the pro-baby killing coven on ABC’s The View. And during their Monday show, they accused the Archbishop of somehow violating the separation of church and state by carrying out punishment against a member of the church for violating their beliefs.
