Candace Owens: 2 employees at TPUSA had prior knowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I gave their names to Erika Kirk.
Piers Morgan: Do you have any evidence for it?
Owens: I don’t have concrete evidence, which is why I’m not naming them 🤡

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

Absolute fucking brilliant documentary. Some of the best camera work ever done. Alex Honnold is literally insane.

This is apropos of absolutely nothing but I have been thinking about best-of-quarter-century stuff and I still say that Free Solo, a documentary about climbing, is one of the five or at worst ten best horror movies of these 25 years.

HHS cuts key AAP grants, citing concerns about “identity-based language” and insufficient focus on agency priorities. The organization said the cuts could harm child health.

Talk to anyone who has had shingles, they will tell you to GET THE VACCINE.
Yes, the vaccine sucks, and you should take the weekend to recover.

All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl
