Spy games always have been going on But to use nerve gas in an attack in Britain with lots of collateral damage seems to be crossing some sort of red line.... Putin is basically telling the West, Russia can do whatever it damn pleases and not much anyone can do about it. |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

According to folks on your side of the aisle, nothing. After all, he owes his election to collusion with Putin. |

I don’t get your question given what the WH has said the last couple of days Trump’s prior commitment notwithstanding. |

Organophosphates are nasty, nasty drugs. Commonly used as pesticides (malathion and parathion), they've been weaponized for decades. They interfere with the metabolism of acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter that acts at the neuromuscular junction. They can cause uncontrollable diarrhea, salivation, bronchial secretions, dangerous slowing of the heart, as well as interfering with muscle activity. I used to use a drug called neostigmine - it is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor as well, but orders of magnitude less powerful. It is *always* given along with an atropine-like drug to prevent the side effects that I mentioned above. |

Not super rare down here to see a farmer come in done in by "cotton poison". Don't see it quite as much as we used to...I don't know if farmers got smarter, pesticides changed or we don't have as many boll weevils as we used to... |
