Jack was paid over $3 million by opioid companies to publish propaganda that downplayed the dangers of opioids.
Read for yourself, and you'll see them for what they are: cleverly disguised marketing designed to mislead doctors and the public. 🧵

Trump would like you to believe that protesting against him means you hate America.
What he fails to remember is that protesting against tyranny is how this country was founded.

A core frustration of the moment has been people who want to organize in 2025 but aren't currently doing anything who want to criticize everything being done as played out or ineffective.
The core criticism has merit - a lot of things that worked in the past might not work now for various reasons.

What I'd love people to take from the Portland Frog (and the other inflatable costumes) is both that wearing an inflatable costume to a protest can create cool viral visuals AND that you need to just try shit.

Mamdani: Why should I debate Trump's puppet when I could debate Trump himself? If Trump is serious about this, he should come to New York City. We can have as many debates as he wants about why he is cutting snap benefits for hungry New Yorkers just to fund tax cuts for his billionaire donors

My thoughts when hearing Hegseth live was that there are so many POC and women that serve. Including high ranking Generals and Admirals. How humiliating to sit through that and hear that you aren’t worthy or that you skipped the line because of your skin color.

Just to note. January 23, 2019 there was a vote to reopen government (HJ RES 28, roll call vote 46) when the govt had been shut down for 30 days.
Mike Johnson voted “no” on that.
They didn’t seem to mind shutdowns then

We believe healthcare is a right for every American.
But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies.
Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Scott Jennings is either lying or wildly misinformed about what happened in Chicago. He keeps claiming 37 Tren de Aragua gang members were arrested. As if it excuses zip tying kids.
DHS says 37 were arrested, and only 2 were suspected gang members.
