Just thinking about what we could do with a billion dollars a day that doesn’t include bombing people.

It just hit me… Trump is pulling an American Brexit via tariffs and unpredictable trade policy. Russia and China gleefully supported Brexit and you can be sure they support this fuckery. #AmericanBrexit #BadEndings

Looks like we weren’t the only ones who’d rather get a root canal than watch Trump lie about protecting the Constitution.

His second inauguration tanked at just 24.59M viewersβ€”less than Biden’s 33.76M in 2021 and even his own 30.64M in 2017.

Team Trump will lie about this, so spread the word!

RFK Jr. Secretly Got Rich Off of β€œPublic Health” Efforts Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s anti-vax nonprofit turns out to be just another scam.

Despite pulling $2.2 million from itβ€¦πŸ˜† Kennedy repeatedly claimed that he wasn’t making money off the groupβ€”in fact, he called it the β€œopposite of a profit motive” during an appearance on InfoWars in 2021.

We did our best to help

Estimates of operating expenses were necessary because we did not receive this information from the respondents. Based on the methodology employed by @costplusdrugs.com we
estimated operating expenses as 15 percent of NADAC plus $10 per prescription.

Wildfire climate connection Climate change, including increased heat, extended drought, and a thirsty atmosphere, has been a key driver in increasing the risk and extent of wildfires in the western United States during the last ...

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change.

Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk:

Biden warns in farewell address that an 'oligarchy' of ultrarich in US threatens future of democracy Speaking from the Oval Office, Biden sounded alarm over the accumulation of power and wealth among a small few.

β€œBiden offered his own set of solutions … change the tax code to ensure billionaires β€œpay their fair share,” eliminate the flow of hidden sources of money into political campaigns, establish 18-year term limits for members of the Supreme Court and ban members of Congress from trading stocks.”

UnitedHealth, employer of slain exec Brian Thompson, found to have overcharged cancer patients for drugs by over 1,000% The report is the latest indictment of America’s broken healthcare system.

"OptumRx, the group’s pharmacy benefit manager, along with its two main peers, Express Scripts and CVS Caremark Rx, have pocketed an extra $7.3 billion over cost thanks to price gouging, according to the findings of a report by the Federal Trade Commission."

It's really not about leaving the other platforms. It's about bringing people here and giving them more engagement than the other apps.

That's what people want. Engagement. Takes nothing to offer it

If there is a user on another app that you like, DM them and invite them here. Post and tag me

Each year, approximately 530,000 American families file for bankruptcy due to medical bills, accounting for 66.5% of all personal bankruptcies in the U.S. 66% of those bankrupted families had health insurance. οΏΌMaybe our newly elected billionaires will fix it?

β€œuseful idiots”, and you can find them on Fox News daily. Ignoring the conquest of one country after another is how the Germany spiraled and led us into the 2nd World War.This needs to be stopped, not ignored, and Russia should not be allowed to keep land they have taken by force. 🌻 #SlavaUkraini

This follows the overthrow of Chechnya, Georgia, Belarus and others. The people telling you that this has nothing to do with America and has no effect on us are wildly ignorant of history, our food and oil supply chains and so much more. The Russians even have a term for these people,

While we’re warm, safe and spending time with friends and family over the holidays, please don’t forget that there is an active invasion of a European country still taking place. Russia, now joined by North Korean soldiers, have displaced and killed over 10 million Ukrainians to-date.

Informant accused of lying about Biden family reaches plea deal Alexander Smirnov admitted he concocted a tale of President Joe Biden and his son Hunter accepting bribes in exchange for protecting a Ukrainian energy company.

Will it ever really come "to a close"?

"The agreement brings to a close an ugly chapter in which Republicans in Congress pinned allegations of Biden family corruption largely on claims Smirnov made to FBI agents in 2020 β€” claims that Smirnov now admits were lies..."
