study of 25,252 adult twins in Sweden, found that those who reported one or more trauma in childhood — physical or emotional neglect or abuse, rape, sexual abuse, hate crimes or witnessing domestic violence — were 2.4 times as likely to be diagnosed with a psychiatric illness as those who did not.
If a person reported one or more of these experiences, the odds of being diagnosed with a mental illness climbed sharply, by 52% for each additional adverse experience.

The Hamas-led massacre of Jews in Israel on Oct. 7 revolted her, and Israel’s reaction in Gaza left her with a “desperate” feeling, as did what she considered the exploitation of the conflict to spread anti-Semitism under the guise of a pro-Palestinian cause. In Europe, Moscow’s aggression in Ukraine led her to ask about President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, “What is this, another Hitler?” while the rise of the far right in France and Germany make her queasy.

“So we actually locked arms together and said we’re not going to give you money for this. We want a change in law,” Lankford said. “When we’re finally going to the end, they’re like, ‘Oh, just kidding. I actually don’t want a change in law because it’s a presidential election year.’ We all have an oath to the Constitution and we have a commitment to say we’re going to do whatever we can to be able to secure the border.”

Addressing the Supreme Court’s 14th Amendment decisions on whether Trump can be disqualified for engaging in an insurrection, Habba decided it would be a good time to remind people of how much Trump has done for Brett M. Kavanaugh. “I think it should be a slam dunk in the Supreme Court; I have faith in them,” Habba said on Fox News. “You know, people like Kavanaugh who the president fought for, who the president went through hell to get into place, he’ll step up.”

For those calling for a Ceasefire.
Make sure you are clear that you want Hamas to surrender and release all kidnapped hostages.
Otherwise you are endorsing the death of Jews and Antisemitic. Currently unfollowing anyone who isn’t clear about this because as a Jew it is clear to me I am not safe. #jews #antisemitism

In the wake of the attack, Schumer said, many Americans had skipped over any expression of sympathy for the victims and instead attacked the past actions of the Israeli government against the Palestinians.
“Can anybody imagine a horrific terrorist attack in another country receiving such a reception?” he asked, noting that the long arc of history had taught Jews a painful lesson: “ultimately, that we are alone.”

Let’s be clear: The war would end immediately if Hamas were to surrender and return the hostages. Why is this not the demand? That, after all, is what many say when a cease-fire in Ukraine is proposed. The war would end immediately if Russia were to withdraw and return Ukraine’s kidnapped citizens.

Hamas meticulously planned and prepared for a massacre of Israeli civilians on a scale to provoke Israel’s into sending troops into Gaza, Hamas leaders publicly express willingness to accept heavy losses — potentially including the deaths of many Gazan civilians living under Hamas rule. “Will we have to pay a price? Yes, and we are ready to pay it,” Ghazi Hamad, a member of the Hamas politburo. “We are called a nation of martyrs, and we are proud to sacrifice martyrs.”

“Pro-Palestine,” to many of them, is pro-Hamas. “Anti-occupation” is opposition to Israel’s right to exist in any form. Israelis are guilty by virtue of being Israelis, so their murder and humiliation is something to laugh at. When “Zionism Is Genocide,” as placards at the demonstration put it, then no means are too awful to put a stop to it.

Florida ocean temperatures at ‘downright shocking’ levels .

Not only is Florida sizzling in record-crushing heat, but the ocean waters that surround it are scorching, as well. The unprecedented ocean warmth around the state — connected to historically warm oceans worldwide — is further intensifying its heat wave and stressing coral reefs, with conditions that could end up strengthening hurricanes.
