So much for the constitution. 😲
It's important to be aware that IICE agents have the authority to enter properties without a warrant.. This has led to concerns about their powers resembling those of oppressive enforcement agencies in history. 😖 GESTAPO?🤔

AstraZeneca will sell cheaper drugs to Medicaid patients due to a deal they signed.

Too bad they are in the UK and they are subject to 100% tariffs on all imported pharmaceuticals that some absolute fucking dumbass started on October 1.

Argentina is already defaulting on a $20 billion dollar bailout loan from the International Monetary Fund, but this $20 billion dollar bailout loan from the US Treasury will work out great. For Milei.

I hope you lose everything, you dumb shitstain.

My only hope is that a true American buys your farm for pennies on the dollar when Trump is done destroying you instead of JD Vance and his billionaire cunt buddies on Acretrader.

I did and I found him. Dark-skinned middle- eastern dude who loved everyone regardless of race, gender, class, refugee status, and sexual identity.

So, basically everything Charlie Kirk stood against.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

Trump clearly decided that rapid identification of public health threats to the U.S. is something that only Democrats want.

Public health largely began in the military because once upon a time, leaders understood that disease is the greatest threat to militarily readiness. That’s over.

This is a flex.

He know his rubes will believe any shit he tells them and he wants to see how far he can take it.

Next week he'll tell them everyone in Portland lives in caves now and eats brontosaurus ribs like the Flintstones.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Bråket etter besøket på den russiske ambassaden: Rektor er bekymret for elever og ansatte

Vi må jo tro at elevene har fått såpass forståelse for verden, at de klarer litt Russisk pølsevev, uten å verve seg. www.aftenposten.no/meninger/deb...

Hva så om de fikk se en russisk propagandafilm?

Skolebesøk til Russlands ambassade er ikke farlig for norsk meningsdannelse.
