Murkowski and Collins voted for Garland's nomination.
They announced they're refusing Gaetz' nomination.
RINOs are trash. Muh Prinzipuls!!!
Just a reminder: Almost all of Europe, and the vast majority of all countries in the world, do NOT fluoridate I guess their government medical experts and lawmakers aren't as expert as American ones, and only our "Experts" see the Holy Truth of Fluoridating Water.
What do you think has kept civilization alive without filtration of water? Alcohol, mead, vodka, etc. No one on this forum exists without booze. Look at population growth. We didn't have clean water supplies in the early 1900's. Then finally got mostly clean supplies.
Kennedy is a kook and should not be in charge of any department, anywhere. I hope he doesn't get confirmed.
Kennedy, one hardly needs reminding, is a lifelong Democrat. He believes in manmade climate change and strict gun control. When the Times cries over his ‘unorthodox’ views, all Kennedy’s intersecting areas of common progressive interests count for absolutely nothing. The fact that caused the Times and the rest of DC’s utter panic over Trump’s win, the fact that sent vaccine stock prices straight downwards, is the fact that Robert Kennedy has called for vaccines to be tested like all other drugs are.
Gaetz's nomination, however, still has to be confirmed by the Senate, and even with a GOP majority in the upper chamber of Congress in the new term, there could be some obstacles in confirming his position. Republicans secured 53 Senate seats after last week's election. Democrats, along with two independents, hold 47.
"I'm all about counting votes, and I would think that he's [Gaetz] probably got some work cut out for him," North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis said on Wednesday. "We're not going to get a single Democrat."
The Senate often confirms a president's Cabinet nominees without hesitation. But Trump has already demanded that the new GOP majority break with tradition and allow recess appointments, meaning that the president-elect's nominees could bypass a Senate confirmation hearing.
"Any Republican Senator seeking the coveted LEADERSHIP position in the United States Senate must agree to Recess Appointments (in the Senate!), without which we will not be able to get people confirmed in a timely manner," Trump posted to X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday.
"Sometimes the votes can take two years, or more," he added. "This is what they did four years ago, and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled IMMEDIATELY!"
Presidents are given the authority under Article II of the Constitution to make appointments "by and with the advice and consent of the Senate." But if the Senate is out of session, the steps by lawmakers to confirm such appointments, such as committee hearings and a chamber vote, are bypassed.
According to an analysis from ABC News, which cited the Congressional Research Service, former President Barack Obama made 32 recess appointments, ex-President George W. Bush made 171 and former President Bill Clinton made 139 while the Senate was on recess.

The fake Establishment Pro-Life groups are back in action to prevent Trump reforms for their powerful donors: this time using RFK. "He's not 100% anti-abortion". RFK is a 20-weeker. Compared to the current occupant he's night and day.
The establishment controlled Pro-Life groups were already looking shady in the weeks before the election.
They're confirming that suspicion with their loud anti-JFK stance.

I like my town but the amount of chlorine was what I put in a pool to keep it clear. Chlorine is bleach.

Water utilities don't use chlorine because it just evaporates. Yours is probably using chloramines which hang around a lot longer. I hate that shit and filter it from my drinking water and the water I use for me reef fish tank. That's not cheap.
Bleach is sodium hypochlorite: NaOCl
They all have a chlorine smell though and although I've never checked I wouldn't be surprised if all do give off chlorine gas to some extent. If you let bleach dry out though it just turns to table salt and oxygen.
The industrial waste story of fluoride is true.
