Once upon a time I heard about populists and thought that doesn't sound so bad. Then I saw it in action. And now Arkansas has made Ivermectin into an over the counter drug.
So all the lovely side effects like enlarged heart and lung issues and all the rest are going to be seen in the gullible in AR

FREE MAHMOUD KHALIL.

Just to recap: Mahmoud Khalil exercises his First Amendment rights.

But, Donald Trump and Marco Rubio didn’t agree with what he said.

A THREAD.

I think the phrase "erotic asphyxiation" implies other activities like "erotic defenestration" or better, "autoerotic defenestration" where you get naked and fling yourself out a window.

Yesterday at 11:00am (noon Eastern), some moron set off fireworks on our block. I'd like to think it's the guy who didn't put out his Trump sign until AFTER the election, but I fear it was another house.

Listen to this guy. He's literally just making shit up when the facts are more complex than 1+1
seems like a good day to remind everyone that Donald Trump believes that there is ginormous building-size faucet in Canada that takes a whole day to turn, and the reason California has droughts is because Gavin Newsom refuses to open it. I shit you not.

This is on the media. IOKIYAR and Dems are spendthrift and all that nonsense.
For all of his dystopian rhetoric, by many traditional metrics, the America that Trump will inherit from Biden is actually in better shape than that bequeathed to any newly elected president since Bush came into office in 2001. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/05/u...
Trump Sees the U.S. as a ‘Disaster.’ The Numbers Tell a Different Story.
President Biden is bequeathing his successor a nation that by many measures is in good shape, even if voters remain unconvinced.

This was clearly a product killed by lack of investment and interest by the producer. The screen and the knob were innovative and exciting, but the loooooong spread between updates and the lack of incremental options made it a non-option for people like me to purchase for our studios.

Underreported: Elon just picked the head of NASA—a massive conflict-of-interest that will damage a government entity that he partners with, depends on, and in some cases competes with. The nominated NASA director is a high-school dropout billionaire who is pals with Musk. He has no business at NASA.

I have heard it said that to live a rich life one should learn something new every day. Well I have been informed by my teenager that the Danish word for speed bump is Fartshumper and that the word for speed check is Fartkontrol. That’s two things.

I’m not sure how this got swept under the carpet, but President Biden’s efforts to combat junk fees will likely save Americans more than $20 billion annually. 👀

Unless they get lucky, they will never solve the UHC CEO shooting case. Literally hundreds of thousands of people have motive. I'm not even trying to be funny. These health care rationing companies cost people their lives

United Healthcare's CEO was just assassinated in Midtown Manhattan.

Seriously, there are hundreds of thousands of potential killers - people with motive
