So we should give up, dig a hole and stick your heads in? I’m not a giving up sort of person. But if that’s your preference, go for it. smh

Contact your representatives, assure this bill goes no where.

So the grants must be reinstated.

The cost of DOGE, and the rest of this administration to the US and indeed world economy is astronomical.

I’m pretty sure the charge is 1st degree murder, however ‘premeditation’ is the key point of differentiation between 1st and 2nd degree.

Here’s what I found from Minnesota Statutes Section 609.185: https://legalclarity.org/understanding-murder-charges-and-penalties-in-minnesota/

"In Minnesota, the criteria for murder charges are defined by state statutes, which outline the circumstances and intent required for each degree. Minnesota Statutes Section 609.185 outlines conditions for first-degree murder, including premeditated intent to kill, killing during certain felonies, or causing the death of a peace officer. Proving intent and premeditation is pivotal in distinguishing first-degree murder from other charges.

Second-degree murder, under Minnesota Statutes Section 609.19, involves intentional killing without premeditation or causing death while committing a felony not specified for first-degree murder. The absence of premeditation differentiates it from first-degree murder, yet intent remains crucial. This distinction highlights the importance of the defendant’s state of mind.

Third-degree murder, detailed in Minnesota Statutes Section 609.195, is characterized by acts that are dangerous to others and demonstrate a depraved mind, without regard for human life, but without intent to kill any particular person. This charge often applies when actions were reckless or negligent, leading to death. The focus is on the reckless nature of the act rather than specific intent to kill, differentiating it from higher degrees of murder."

It was actually 50, but some news sources are saying 100 for their own reasons.

The Danes have already stated, “shoot first, ask questions later.” I don’t expect them to step down from that position. An invasion by a hostile state IS an act of war. And the invader is by definition a war criminal. The Danes are being serious, they aren’t jesting. FAFO.

You have a harsh view of the world. Maybe lighten up on yourself. It might help you to have more compassion.

WY, Thank You! Hurray!

Health Effects Associated with Nitrogen Dioxide

https://cfpub.epa.gov/ncea/iris/iris_documents/documents/subst/0080_summary.pdf

NO2 acts mainly as an irritant affecting the mucosa of the eyes, nose, throat and respiratory tract.
Extremely high-dose exposure (as in a building fire) to NO2 may result in pulmonary edema and diffuse lung injury.
Continued exposure to high NO2 levels can contribute to the development of acute or chronic bronchitis.
Low level NO2 exposure may cause:
    increased bronchial reactivity in some asthmatics
    decreased lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
    increased risk of respiratory infections, especially in young children

Home interventions are effective at decreasing indoor nitrogen dioxide concentrations https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4909253/

Abstract

Nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a by-product of combustion produced by indoor gas appliances such as cooking stoves, is associated with respiratory symptoms in those with obstructive airways disease. We conducted a three-armed randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy of interventions aimed at reducing indoor NO2 concentrations in homes with unvented gas stoves: (i) replacement of existing gas stove with electric stove; (ii) installation of ventilation hood over existing gas stove; and (iii) placement of air purifiers with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) and carbon filters. Home inspection and NO2 monitoring were conducted at 1 week pre-intervention and at 1 week and 3 months post-intervention. Stove replacement resulted in a 51% and 42% decrease in median NO2 concentration at 3 months of follow-up in the kitchen and bedroom, respectively (P = 0.01, P = 0.01); air purifier placement resulted in an immediate decrease in median NO2 concentration in the kitchen (27%, P < 0.01) and bedroom (22%, P = 0.02), but at 3 months, a significant reduction was seen only in the kitchen (20%, P = 0.05). NO2 concentrations in the kitchen and bedroom did not significantly change following ventilation hood installation. Replacing unvented gas stoves with electric stoves or placement of air purifiers with HEPA and carbon filters can decrease indoor NO2 concentrations in urban homes.

I find it interesting when Judges, such as Justice S. Kato Crews, appear unable to do literature searches, and/or appear unable to read said literature.

From OP’s article, this pertinent review: Review from American Lung Association: https://www.lung.org/getmedia/ce1e7bfa-db92-42a3-9ff4-3044324ec2c9/ICF_Impacts-of-Residential-Combustion_Addendum.pdf

That is my understanding as well. Which is what makes McLaughlin, and Noem’s mendacious responses so odious. They know they are wrong. They saw the same videos that by now a very large fraction of the US and the world has seen. These can be ‘crystalizing’ moments in which history pivots.

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, saying, “While for the safety of our officers we do not get into law enforcement footprint, DHS has surged law enforcement and has already made more than 1,000 arrests of murderers, rapists, pedophiles and gang members.” Hmm, I await the specific charges, outcome of the trials against these criminals. And note that this group is probably far less likely to be “murderers, rapists, and pedophiles” than the current Executive Branch of the US. Perhaps Secy McLaughlin will clarify this matter for us.

Sounds like it.

“She was trying to turn around, and the ICE agent was in front of her car, and he pulled out a gun and put it right in — like, his midriff was on her bumper — and he reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times,” Heller said. JFC!

Sure donnie, gotta give us those unredacted epstein files, first.

TY! Adding these to the archive.

Here’s some ‘bullshit science’ for you.

My experience is different. Dries in a day, or less. Shrug. I’ll keep using walnut, works just fine for my kitchen ware. I’ve used tung and linseed oil for furniture.
