This is me. www.ajc.com/opinion/opin...

It's easy to pull back right now, & try to just ignore what's happening, but at the very least you need to stay informed. Don't be caught off guard by what's going on around you.

Remember how, after getting access to Regeneron's COVID treatment to stave off COVID death in 2020, Trump generously got Chis CHristie, whom he almost killed by infecting him during debate training, the same exclusive access?
Healthcare but only for my friends

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

@60minutes.bsky.social just put up the extended interview of the demented felon on YouTube- @schumer.senate.gov please do not capitulate to this insane tyrant. He insists that you will. John Thune, refuses to use the nuclear option and by doing so had boxed him in.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

So does that make Melania under the age of 18 when she was having $3x w Epstein? I thought I read somewhere she was 17 when she met Epstein. N, we’ve already connected the dots that Melania was trafficked by Epstein. Ofc, Epstein corruption is deep n dark! #releaseepsteinfiles

israeli terrorists are burning down the Christian town of Taybeh in the West Bank, uprooting Palestinians for jared’s resort😢
Hmm, that raises an excellent question: Are the people on the boats in the Caribbean Christian? Isn't the US also guilty of killing Christians, or now it's OK because they're "suspected" or being "associated" w/ drug trafficking? 🤔😡

Kash fired the guy he thinks outed him for taking another private jet flight to see his girlfriend sing.
The problem I've run into, is that businesses will also still charge a credit card transaction fee. It's 6 of one, half a dozen of another.

NEW: Judge Walker partially grants Letitia James's motion related to Lindsey Halligan's Signal exchange.

The judge will require DOJ to preserve any communications—including communications with the media—about the case.

But he won't require the government to maintain a log of its media contacts.
