i’d push back on this a little — from the start, the MAHA pitch ended with buying the wellness scams and supplements its leaders directly sold (or profited from via affiliate marketing). they haven’t really hidden it

And again, a pattern of putting out statements accusing people of serious Federal crimes and then releasing them hours or days or weeks later with no charges. And no retraction.
NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

Anyone over age 34 who has made the realization that the g-forces of rollercoasters feel a bit TOO shakey for your C1-2 vertebrae and surrounding ligaments? You question your choices bc your head keeps aching, & body feels like it’s in a whipping compressor blender, but you can’t stop doing the fun?

SNAP is probably the most effective federal dollar we spend in terms of long term domestic economic outcomes.
that isn’t why you should support it; you should support it because it is a moral imperative to feed the hungry.
but it’s why even a growth-oriented ghoul shouldn’t oppose it.

If living in a solid house near a data center is uncomfortable, I can’t imagine how people who live in manufactured houses or RVs next airports or data centers must feel. Has anyone been checking in to ask them?
