Trump loses Wisconsin election lawsuit challenging mail votes – Business Insider

“The real dispute here is whether or not there were erroneous interpretations of law used in the recount involved in whether the ballots should be counted or not counted,” Simanek said, adding that “the court is satisfied” that Wisconsin correctly interpreted those laws.

Simanek issued the ruling immediately after a hearing with lawyers for Trump and for Dane and Milwaukee counties. It also included lawyers representing Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris, whom Trump sued personally even though they have no involvement in Wisconsin’s election administration.

The judge said he was acting quickly because Wisconsin was the only state to miss the “safe harbor” deadline before the Electoral College formalizes Biden’s victory on Monday.

“The bottom line here is that the court should do everything to ensure the will of the voters prevails,” Simanek said.

Among those with the most potential, he said, should be a class of anti-inflammatory drugs called JAK inhibitors, which includes the arthritis drug baricitinib, made by Eli Lilly . Baillie’s team also found that a boost in the activity of the INFAR2 gene could create protection against COVID-19, because it is likely to mimic the effect of treatment with interferon.

Let the Wounds Breathe

quotidian

As parents we all try to do the best we can. But the world is full of unexpected twists and turns. And just when you think, everything you are doing is somehow right, the ground underneath starts to sink and you are knocked out. They say practice makes us perfect. The more you think like a parent, the more you become one, the better you get at remaining neutral and patient and the harder it becomes to fix the wounds.

As the new batch of hormones arrive, our children swipe left, all the efforts we put. So now, there you are, an outdated parent who somehow never understands those, who once were our little angels..!!
