US law requires 2/3 Senate approval for international treaties

They got so so much wrong. And we are all paying the price.

The Sombrero galaxy (Messier 104) is in the Virgo cluster & is 1 of the most massive objects in that group, equivalent to 800 billion suns. It's 50,000 light-years across & is 30 million light-years from Earth. Credit: NASA/ESA & The Hubble Heritage Team More info: esahubble.org/images/opo03...

NGC2335, the Seagull nebula, another ongoing project I’ve been working on for about three weeks. In this case as well, this image was obtained by capturing the radiation emitted in the ionized hydrogen spectrum and partly in oxygen, with about 15 hours of integration time. >>> 🔭 #Astrophotography

Hubble Glimpses Galactic Gas Making a Getaway www.nasa.gov/image-articl... A sideways spiral galaxy shines in this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image. Located about 60 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo (the Maiden), NGC 4388 is a resident of the Virgo galaxy cluster

Reform UK won’t say ‘private’ when talking about healthcare. Richard Tice uses ‘independent’: "Instead of giving £26bn to the already bloated wasteful NHS, we proposed easing pressure on the health service by incentivising those who can afford to pay more to go independent with a tax break."

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy
