Woman with TB in Washington who evaded treatment for a year is now cured

Once she was arrested and health officials gained her trust, apparently she understood the risk she posed to the community and the infection posed to herself. She began treatment, her health improved, she regained weight, and is now cured and no longer a problem for the community.

While she was infected, amongst other things she had taken a public bus to a casino and had been in a traffic accident and later went to a hospital, complaining of chest pains. Her chest x-ray was so bad that the doctors thought she had lung cancer. It was actually showing that the TB had gotten much worse. Yet she continued to dodge health workers who wanted to get her into treatment.

The Muskbrat denies that he's giving The Convicted Felon $45 million a month

About a week ago, the Cheeto Benito announced that The Muskbrat was giving him $45,000,000 PER MONTH. Of course, it's a major election law violation to give that kind of money to a candidate, much less on a repeating basis, it has to go through a Pac or Superpac, and that's what was going on here.

And now The Muskbrat is walking back The Convicted Felon's claim. Apparently he gave $45mil to a superpac that focuses on get out the vote efforts supporting conservative causes, but will not be making that donation on a monthly basis.

Which is probably a good thing. Like our previous (and cannot be forgotten soon enough) president who demonstrated liquidity problems, it would be kinda embarrassing if he had to sell more Tesla stock to make recurring donations a reality.
