How did the Gooferment get involved in our getting “drug” from the “drug store”?
My fiancé, who’s an amputee and has constant phantom pain, was having trouble getting approval to try Lyrica. She happened to take a trip to Egypt and, while in town, she stopped into the local “drug store”. She asked the pharmacist about Lyrica and it turns out it, like most non-abused drugs, is available over the counter without a prescription.
Why can’t we have that service here in the USA?

The Tenth Pin
In the early 19th century, bowling alleys were primarily owned by Bars and Pubs. A culture of crime and gambling became associated with it, and eventually, Bowling gained a poor reputation. In 1841, Connecticut banned ownership of nine-pin lanes in an attempt to curb gambling and crime. To get around the law, players simply added one more pin, which nullified the ban and the modern game was born. There have been few changes to the rules of the sport since then.

Laugh!
Where there’s a will there is a way.
“Cast me into a dungeon;, burn me at the state, crown me king of kings, I can ‘pursue happiness’ as long as my brain lives — but neither gods nor saints, wise men nor subtle drugs, can insure that I will catch it.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
That’s why the Gooferment can’t possibly keep drugs out of prisons!

FBI tears innocent New Yorker’s life into shreds after Jan. 6: Devine
By Miranda Devine
June 23, 2021 | 10:39pm | Updated
*** begin quote ***
Joseph Bolanos was a pillar of his community. President of his Upper West Side block association for the past 23 years, he looked out for his neighbors during the pandemic. He dropped off masks and kept extra heaters in his rent-controlled apartment for seniors. He raised morale with a weekly street dance to show his support for essential workers.
A Red Cross volunteer after the 9/11 attacks, the 69-year-old security consultant once received a police commendation for heroism after saving a woman from being mugged.
Unmarried, and caring for his 94-year-old mother, he was a well-loved character in the quiet residential area.
But now his neighbors think he is a domestic terrorist.
Yes, he attended then-President Donald Trump’s rally in Washington, DC, on Jan. 6, but he never entered the Capitol. He was in a friend’s room at the JW Marriott a 30-minute walk away when the Capitol breach occurred.
Nonetheless, he was raided in February by the FBI anti-terrorism task force, handcuffed, paraded and detained for three hours while his apartment was ransacked and all his devices confiscated. Four months later, he hasn’t been charged and doesn’t have his devices back, but his neighbors are shunning him, and he’s had two strokes from the stress.
“It’s destroyed my reputation,” he says. “I’m not a violent invader … I do not condone the criminality and violence on [Jan. 6] whatsoever.”
The FBI told Bolanos he was raided because of a tip to the Jan. 6 hotline from a neighbor who said he had overheard him “boasting” about being at the Capitol.
An FBI agent phoned Bolanos the Sunday after the riot and left a message. He returned the call the next day, but never heard back.

If EVER contacted by “law enforcement”, your next contact should be with a criminal defense lawyer. PERIOD!
Don’t talk to them ever. And if your lawyer demands audio and video recording, they’ll never talk to you.
See that deprives them their ability to lie about you or what you said.
Argh!
Time to shut the FBI down and completely rethink their “mission”.

Former Trump Official Slices Fauci Apart Over Hydroxychloroquine Fiasco
Matt Vespa | @mvespa1 | Posted: Jun 19, 2021 6:00 AM
*** begin quote ***
Navarro goes on to accuse Fauci and the liberal media of being complicit in tens of thousands of negligent homicides as this treatment has been confirmed to be effective. It’s another reason to hate Fauci. It’s another example showing how bad he is at his job. The man was wrong about testing, the vaccine (he thought we didn’t need one), and masks. He admits in emails that the masks we all wore for a year did nothing to curb the spread. Only Fauci can explain why he did what he did on COVID. He lied. He was biased. He is the poster child for the death of medical expertise. They got political. They wanted Trump gone, but now the population, except for woke liberals, have rightfully turned their backs on these political clowns. They’re not doctors. They’re DNC operatives. With COVID over, you can mute Fauci on your televisions.

How ‘insane’ decision ruined Novak Djokovic’s viral French Open moment

Novak Djokovic took another step towards cementing his GOAT status with an incredible five-set win over Stefanos Tsitsipas to claim Grand Slam title No. 19. But the real highlight was a young fan’s reaction when the Serb gave him his racket after the match.
The boy was overwhelmed with emotion, absolutely losing it as the cameras zoomed in.
“He was in my ear the entire match, basically, especially when I was two sets to love down,” Djokovic said at his post-match press conference. “He was encouraging me, he was actually giving me tactics as well.
*** and ***
Footage of the exchange quickly went viral, receiving millions of views on social media. However, the French Tennis Federation later pulled down the video from accounts that had shared it, citing a copyright infringement.

I guess “We, The Sheeple” need to let the advertisers know what was does that they paid the bill for. I bet good boycott threat might lead to a sudden reversal.
Nice to see a champion athlete not acting like an ass!

9 Ways China Created a Pandemic that Have Nothing to Do with the Wuhan Lab
FRANCES MARTEL
11 Jun 2021
*** begin quote ***
The resurgence of a theory that the Chinese coronavirus first began infecting people through an accident at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) has rekindled outrage towards Beijing but presents the danger of obscuring the many actions China took to spread the disease regardless of where it originated.

Regardless of where the WuFlu started, “the World” should hold China accountable for its actions that made it worse.

Approximately 3,000 mail-in ballots counted in the Nov. 3 election were supposedly cast by UCSB students residing in a voting precinct that, along with other dorm buildings, includes the Francisco Torres/Santa Catalina Residence Hall at 6850 El Colegio Road in Goleta.
Problem: Due to COVID-19, the Torres Building, which normally accommodates 1,300 students, was empty and locked down through most of 2020, as were all other UCSB dorms.
This means no students/voters were residing inside the Torres Building (nor any of the other dorms) during the election season.

Special place in Hell for all the “co-conspiritors”!
This should be treated like a genocide. It could have been an extinction event. And, needs to be prevented in the future.
Congress should use “marque and reprisal” on all involved!
