CONCLUSIONS
In our sample of 650,173 COVID cases among active-duty military personnel, a total of 278,278 were identified as having post-COVID-19 syndrome (42.8%). Of these, 273,405 reported post-COVID symptoms in at least two visits (42.1%). Our findings showed that the top three symptoms of post-COVID-19 syndrome in military personnel are related to pulmonary, neurological, and fatigue issues. Mild to moderate cases of this syndrome could leave military personnel with long-term deficits in their overall fitness and readiness. This readiness is a critical aspect of military effectiveness, ensuring that personnel can respond rapidly and decisively to threats. Thus, continued assessment and potential treatments are needed to assist active-duty military personnel to improve their overall health outcomes.

Oh look, the πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ military concludes over 40% of COVID infections lead to Long COVID, among a population sample that is all adults, & on average in better physical condition & younger than the national/global population.

Not dissimilar to how Hegseth seems to think this a new crusade but he never learned that Christendom lost the fucking Crusades.

Jim Cramer suggests on CNBC that Trump could β€œbomb Tehran into the Stone Age” until Iran reopens the strait, citing U.S. bombings of North Vietnam in the 1970s. Carl Quintanilla points out to him that Hanoi won that war.

Day 2,196 of long COVID (yes, that is the exact number of days): several new symptoms have popped up recently in this, the game that never ends. I've had shoulder pain on the left since August, but it hurts like mofo now. New burning mouth syndrome. It HURTS. Vision 0/10 today.

(Reuters) - U.S. intelligence indicates that Iran's leadership is still largely intact and is not at risk of collapse any time soon after nearly two weeks of relentless U.S. and Israeli bombardment, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

In the last 24 hours, Iran has:

- Struck three ships trying to cross the Strait of Hormuz, disabling a Thai cargo ship
- Blown up a large oil storage facility in Oman
- Struck two oil tankers at harbor in Iraq, setting both ablaze.
- Blown up oil storage tanks next to Bahrain’s main airport

You cannot tell voters (accurately) this is a fascist regime that is hell bent on destroying us - let alone rely on it (as Dems are) as your GOTV while also voting yourselves to enable the regime.

I'd recommend not doing that unless you can vote in the Dem primary as an independent. The best way to change the party is by voting in better candidates in the primaries.

The quislings will be coming along any minute now to tell you that you don't really care about the outcome, you just want a different vibe. And also that you don't understand how the legislative process actually works.

Overview
WelcomeFest - the largest public gathering of centrists.

WelcomeFest showcases the array of leaders and organizations cultivating a partisan centrist vision on the left. At WelcomeFest, a community of like-minded elected officials, media figures, journalists, and thought leaders gather to mediate a new path forward for our party – providing a platform for connection, conversation, and action. WelcomeFest is an opportunity for us all to take lessons from candidates who overperform to craft a strong, robust, and vibrant centrist faction.

Imagine your whole ideology being we have no ideology. We stand for nothing - or at least nothing we will admit.

Now imagine that under fascism.

This is a crime. So-called centrists should be pelted with rotten eggs and tomatoes until they learn to never show their faces in public again.

Very good piece by @gregsargent.bsky.social in @newrepublic.com. It does a fine job of showing how the war demonstrates connections between conservatism now and then, pushing against the thesis that MAGAism was a staunch break with Neoconservatism...

New: The groups Trump made the biggest inroads with in 2024 are the ones most likely to disapprove of how he's doing as POTUS. That includes Black, Latino, working class, and young voters.

So much for the new multi-racial, working-class Republican Party?

This sounds like a terrific service, thank you. I've requested a Twitter account to be mirrored and will share it once I can see how it works.
