    Rudy Giuliani’s Lawyer Is Out Of His F*cking Gourd

    December 23, 2024 - By 

    The question is: Why should the court abstain from exercising its “inherent authority for an order holding Defendant Rudolph W. Giuliani in civil contempt and imposing sanctions” for failing to comply with discovery in the collection action filed by Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss? And the answer is Hunter Biden. This Court should know that one or more of Plaintiffs’ counsels was partners with Hunter Biden as Boies Schiller Flexner LLC, President Joseph Biden’s son, and had been involved with, upon information and belief, Burisma Holdings and/or Ukrainian issues. These issues became very, very political and charged during the 2020…

    Say Goodbye to Your Tasteless Tortillas

    December 23, 2024 - By 

    At about midnight each weekday, a group of five men and women arrives at the darkened restaurant doors of Sobre Masa in Brooklyn and performs a sacred art of transformation. Heirloom corn—hundreds of pounds in shades of blue, yellow, red—is boiled and steeped for hours in an alkaline solution, a process called nixtamalization. Then it’s rinsed, milled, aerated, and finally passed through a machine that cuts the resulting masa dough into perfect tortillas and griddles them. By 8 a.m. or so, the workers will have made about 1,000 pounds of masa and many hundreds of tortillas, which smell like popcorn…

    COVID’s End-of-Year Surprise – The Atlantic

    December 20, 2024 - By 

    The twinkling of lit-up trees and festive displays in store windows have come to mean two things: The holidays are upon us, and so is COVID. Since the pandemic began, the week between Christmas and New Year’s has coincided with the dreaded “winter wave.” During that dark period, cases have reliably surged after rising throughout the fall. The holiday season in 2020 and 2021 marked the two biggest COVID peaks to date, with major spikes in infections that also led to hospitalizations and deaths. But something weird is happening this year. From September through November, levels of the virus in…

    The Dangers of Coconut Oil Pulling

    December 20, 2024 - By 

    I’ve been oil pulling with coconut oil for years. I read about oil pulling benefits a long time ago and how it may reverse tooth decay and help remineralize and whiten teeth.  I’ve definitely noticed less plaque and better dental health since starting! Recently, I came across some articles online that questioned oil pulling and whether it could be dangerous. Here’s what I’ve learned about oil pulling and its pros and cons for overall health. What is Coconut Oil Pulling? Oil pulling is an ancient practice that comes to us from Ayurvedic medicine, the traditional medicine of India. It’s long…

    America’s Bird-Flu Luck Has Officially Run Out

    December 19, 2024 - By 

    Yesterday, America had one of its worst days of bird flu to date. For starters, the CDC confirmed the country’s first severe case of human bird-flu infection. The patient, a Louisiana resident who is over the age of 65 and has underlying medical conditions, is in the hospital with severe respiratory illness and is in critical condition. This is the first time transmission has been traced back to exposure to sick and dead birds in backyard flocks. Meanwhile, California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency after weeks of rising infections among dairy herds and people. In Los Angeles,…

    Donald Trump Sues Yet Another Media Outlet For Tortious Journalism-ing

    December 18, 2024 - By 

    To call Donald Trump a transactional leader is to damn with faint praise. The man hawks gold sneakers. He took the White House photographers’ work and turned it into a $100 coffee table book. He shreds his clothes and sells them for literal scrap. He got paid billions of dollars to vomit nonsense onto a bespoke social media platform whose only rule was that you couldn’t criticize him (or his business or his family). And so it is perhaps unsurprising that President-elect Got Mine thinks speech is literally merchandise. That is the basis of his trollsuit (h/t Politico) against J.…

    Chewy Snickerdoodle Recipe (Grain-Free and Paleo)

    December 17, 2024 - By 

    My kids won’t say no to a healthier for you chocolate chip cookie but I’m always up for trying new recipes. The classic Snickerdoodle was next on my list to tackle. This version uses maple syrup instead of brown sugar and almond and coconut flour instead of wheat. It’s the perfect easy snickerdoodle recipe for the holidays (or any day of the week!).

    Rudy Giuliani Courts The Death Penalty (Sanctions)

    December 16, 2024 - By 

    Rudy Giuliani is ready to start 2025 off with a bang. America’s mayor is courting contempt in two federal courtrooms, and he’s on the verge of getting himself a default judgment to boot. Squad goals! Rudy’s been at this passion project since November of 2020, when he falsely accused Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, two Atlanta poll workers, of tabulating thousands of fraudulent ballots. In August of 2023, Judge Beryl Howell ordered a default judgment against him, thanks to his utter refusal to comply with his discovery obligations. And in December a jury awarded the plaintiffs $148 million in damages.…
