Remember when, the Trump Administration caved to Big Pharma and broke their promise to enable Medicare drug negotiations?
Do not forget it was President Biden and Democrats in Congress who actually got this done!

Can’t help shake the sinking feeling that what the universe has in store for us is Donald Trump overseeing another major pandemic response.
Bird flu has been discovered in a batch of raw milk sold in California store refrigerators, state regulators said Sunday. While there have been no reported illnesses in this most recent case, it comes just a few days after a child tested positive for bird flu for the first time in U.S. history.
Bird flu detected in raw milk sold at California store
The H5N1 virus was found in a sample of unpasteurized milk at a store, prompting a recall of one batch. Health agencies have warned against the growing dietary fad.

"Bluesky is awesome now, for how long?" I mean, look, all things change and end, we will all die, earth will be uninhabitable in a billion years, then the sun will expand and destroy the planet, and the universe will die a slow death of proton decay.
