New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

"No one in the administration – the president or anybody under him – has called anyone in my administration or me – have not called the city of Chicago or anyone else. So it's clear that, in secret, they're are planning this – well, it's an invasion with US troops." Gov. JB Pritzker

New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.

Spits in the face of every service member who served honorably and was buried with military honors. To dishonor them like this is unbecoming and brings dishonor to those who served with honor. This was an attack on the oath she swore to honor and protect...she chose not to. We don't honor dishonor.

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
