Greene announced the bill during a Thursday appearance on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight. The Georgia Republican argued that gender-affirming care—which is backed by most in the medical establishment, including by major mainstream organizations like the American Medical Association (AMA) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)—is “disgusting and appalling” and “child abuse” when minors are involved. “I find this absolutely appalling, Tucker,” Greene said. “When it comes to gender-affirming care, which is really child abuse, this is actually an assault and it’s child abuse. And this practice should never happen, it’s so disgusting and appalling… gender-affirming care is… genital mutilation.” *** The largest online progressive news show in the world.

Nurses at Maine Medical Center voted overwhelmingly to retain their union after two days of voting concluded Thursday night. Jessica Burbank, Cenk Uygur, and Alonzo Bodden discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live Read more HERE: https://www.commondreams.org/news/2022/08/19/landslide-1108-387-vote-maine-nurses-reject-effort-decertify-their-union “Nurses at Maine Medical Center have voted by an overwhelming margin to keep the union that they opted to join last year, fending off a decertification effort backed by a right-wing legal group dedicated to rolling back workers’ ability to organize and bargain collectively. The vote, held in person on August 17 and 18, favored the union even more heavily than the initial 1,001 to 750 vote in 2021. A tally released late Thursday showed that the Maine Med nurses voted 1,108 to 387 in support of retaining the Maine State Nurses Association/National Nurses United as their collective bargaining representative, a nearly 75% vote in favor of the union. Jonica Frank, a registered nurse at Maine Med and a member of the union’s bargaining team, said that “we have already negotiated historic improvements in pay, in working conditions, and on patient safety issues” since voting to join the union last year.“ *** The largest online progressive news show in the world.

In the early 70s Sesame Street was created with an eye towards educating poor, inner-city children for free, and became a massive hit with all children. In 2016, faced with going off the air forever after facing conservative efforts to destroy public broadcasting since basically its beginning, new episodes became a timed exclusive for premium cable network HBO. In 2022 HBO Max, newly merged with and taken over by reality TV channel Discovery, removed Sesame Street episodes and spin-offs from streaming as a tax write-off and scheme to avoid paying residuals.
Without beauty, love, or danger it would be almost easy to live.
