Summertime, from Porgy and Bess, by George Gershwin, with a libretto written by author DuBose Heyward, from his novel Porgy, and lyricist Ira Gershwin. Let’s make it so. More Music!

Repellent Republicans Rushing to Ruin x Opinion by Paul Waldman and Greg Sargent: Sarah Huckabee Sanders’s strange “woke” rant reveals a big GOP problem https://t.co/FzOIODnIUv — The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) February 9, 2023 The Biden Administration seems more interested in woke fantasies than the hard reality Americans face every day. Because, of course, the victims of anti-Wokeism aren’t real Americans to Wrong-Wingers, and haven’t been since the Dred Scott decision at SCOTUS. Never mind those pesky amendments. Just released transcript of Sarah Huckabee Sanders' SOTU rebuttal This Diary is just snarky parody.

There is no Hunter Biden laptop story. It was stolen, given to professional liars, and its contents rewritten to further a Conspiracy Theory. There is a Hunter Biden Dick Pic Twitter story, but not the one that Wrong-Wingers on the committee want to hear. x Here’s a reminder that, it’s all true. Biden stated it correctly. Here’s a video of Mike Lee promising his wealthy ass donors, he’ll cut SS & Medicare, before they have to pay a penny in taxes, ok. pic.twitter.com/cjclFaSf0w — “WOKE” Dee (@DeeLeftMom) February 8, 2023 x Nicolle Wallace fact checks Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who in her #SOTU response, boasted Trump's support of the military.

He started talking about Republican plans to undo Social Security and Medicare. The Rs present rose in wrath, shouting that there was no such plan. So Biden accepted their assurance that gutting Social Security and Medicare is off the table, and said I like conversion. x Thanks for the link to the list. I had no idea that a book about Zen koans had been banned--Zen Shorts (Zen Series), by Jon J. Muth. It makes twisted sense, of course, that the teachings of The Awakened One would fall under Florida's anti-"woke" law. https://t.co/B3of0WII9c — Mokurai Delusion Fighter 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 (@Mokurai) February 7, 2023 I had some trouble believing this, so I give you multiple versions. x Disney new woke reboot!

Katie Hobbs this week for a quick veto, starting the negotiation process between the Republican majority Legislature and the ninth floor. Plans have now changed after one stray vote from a Republican lawmaker who promised she wouldn’t vote on any bills to protest a “fraudulent” election. First-term Chandler lawmaker blocks GOP ‘skinny’ state budget First-term Rep. Liz Harris, R-Chandler, voted "no" on one of the main bills to fund the state for the new fiscal year beginning July 1. All final House actions require 31 affirmative votes. But with the GOP having just 31 members and Democrats refusing to go along, that left the plan short. Harris would not discuss her decision. Neither would House Speaker Ben Toma, R-Peoria. But her vote should come as no surprise. In November, nearly a week after the election, Harris posted on Instagram that she would withhold her vote on any bills this session until there is a new election. So…will she hold her breath until she turns Blue? Another Music Break Pete Seeger, Darling Corey Guns! Whiskey! Revenooers! Wild women! Double thumbing! Science! Animals! Weirdness!

Thomas was the inventor of the illusion transmitter, technology that NASA still uses to create realistic, three-dimensional images of spaces. Her innovative thinking and contributions to science also made improvements to videos and television. #BlackHistoryMonth pic.twitter.com/RAUEKdxBcW — Senator Mark Kelly (@SenMarkKelly) February 8, 2023 Illusion transmitter An illusion transmitter uses two parabolic mirrors to transmit 3-D illusions of an object by use of a camera trained on the first mirror, which then sends video signals to a projector aimed at the second mirror. It was invented by Valerie Thomas, for which she received a patent in 1980.[1] She developed it for the purpose of sending three-dimensional images across a distance, making them look as if they are in front of the mirror.[2][3] As of 2022, the technology is still used by NASA and is being adapted for use in surgery, as well as for televisions and video screens.[4][5] x Menopause has long been shrouded in secrecy, spoken of in hushed terms or referenced with euphemisms.
