OK. Now I see what Fauci did about Paul: Showed printouts of Paul’s website that are fundraising off of his attacks on Fauci.
Kelly Canon, a well-known conservative activist in Texas who peddled Covid-19 vaccine misinformation, has died of complications caused by the virus — just a few weeks after attending a “symposium”* against the shots, the Daily Beast reports.

Found it!
Letters can appear twice: This complicates matters, especially when you’re running out of letters to try on word four or five. But letters often recur, as with words like chill, sissy and ferry having been the correct answers in the past.

Ted let Trump insult his wife as fat and slander his father as a serial killer.
Without demanding a public apology or retraction.
That says all about how low he is willing to debase himself to be accepted by those in power.

This guy has almost a million followers, he doesn’t need any help spreading this. It’s more important to let everyone know so he can hopefully be suspended before he kills any more people.

I was sad you can only play Wordle once per day, so I made a console app.
Oh, so that’s what Wordle is. I was always pretty good at those, maybe I should try it.

I just played for the first time, and got it in four!
Though for weeks, I have been obsessing over the NYTimes’ Spelling Bee games (both the four-letter daily online and the five-letter print version in the Magazine) so I feel pretty confident working with letters.

So to allay her fears I went ahead and requested Dr. Fauci’s latest financial disclosure. Here it is. The disclosure shows a bunch of money market funds and mutual funds. No individual pharma stocks. https://t.co/xLRr0YXiPu /2

That honestly makes me like Fauci even more.
Right wingers are swarming every popular tweet about Dr. Fauci to spew insane libels at him. Calls for him to be jailed and/or executed and comparisons to Dr. Mengele are common.

The first time I played I didn’t realize that the yellow indicated right letter but wrong location. I actually got an anagram of the correct word on try six. That’s when I figured out where I went wrong. Still, six tries is not good. I have to work on that.
re: #28 Dopamine Fish
Four tries on your first go round? I suck. 😢
re: #33 Yeah Sure WhatEVs

Nah, as you said, you didn’t know the rules. Knowing what the yellow meant, and that the keyboard shades out the letters you’ve already used, it was merely a matter of sufficient time to ponder the available combinations until a viable 5-letter word with no repeated letters came to mind.
Predictable as fuck:
Yeah, you’re a treasonous little thug.
You incite your know nothing followers to attack Dr. Fauci, all while spewing nonstop lies.
You got exactly what you want out of this - soundbites and an image.

At this point every news report about the pandemic should note that the Republican Party is doing everything possible to sabotage measures that would actually help people, because they’re cynically using the virus to harm a Democratic administration.

Honestly, it doesn’t feel all that slow.
I found this story interesting, because its a rare example of someone born in the US who is not a natural born citizen. Her father was a diplomat, so when she left to join the Islamic State, the Obama Administration (ironically) canceled her passport.
