I took a relative to a doctor's appointment and so missed Joe Biden's first press conference
— Stonekettle (@Stonekettle) March 25, 2021
And you know what?
It didn't bother me to miss it
Not because important things wouldn't be discussed, because they were. But because BIDEN ISN'T A CRAZY FUCK and I could catch it later
Meanwhile…
Georgia Gov. Kemp has signed the bill that imposes new voter ID requirements for absentee ballots, empowers state officials to take over local elections boards, limits use of drop boxes & makes it a crime to approach voters in line to give them food/water.https://t.co/Mu9thBl6Fe

So, basically the EU has helped vaccinate one third of the entire population of the UK since December (more than 20m doses without any in other direction) while being stuffed by Astra Zeneca.

For the first time since early October, Northern Ireland has recorded no #covid19 related deaths on two consecutive days.
Another interesting COVID-19 stat today – of the 7,752 people tested for COVID-19 in Northern Ireland on Tuesday, only 151 (1.95%) tested positive. That's the first time the daily positivity rate has been less than 2% since the 8th of September, 198 days ago.

Does Brexit have the consent of "all of the people" of the UK? Or even the consent of "all of the people" of Northern Ireland? And if the Northern Ireland protocol now needs the consent of all of the people why did it not when negotiated? https://t.co/YdcZNj28FN
