RFK Jr: "When my uncle was president, the fertility rate in this country was 3.5%. Today it is 1.6%. The replacement rate -- in other words the amount of fertility you need to keep your population even -- is 2.1%. We are below replacement. That is a national security threat to our country."
Sorry Brainworm, I’m not reversing the vasectomy because you’re worried that not enough white people are being born in the US.

Pediatric phalloplasty is something that takes place when there is severe genital injury or a congenital condition. I have not been able to find a single report of phalloplasty performed on a transgender minor.
This is grotesque fear-mongering.

We carry on with little regard towards having lost the vast majority of what we had in our heyday.
It’s basically just elderly people taking indoor walks and $5 massage chairs.

Always remember kids, the best people to listen to about what Kremlin will do if you seize our assets to help Ukraine defend itself are the people who said we wouldn't even invade them in the first place.

If we are to accept Lutnick’s explanation, then why has Trump said it incorrectly every. single. time. he’s made this illogical statement?!
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

As a journalist, Rex Huppke regularly attends events aside notable public figures, which is exactly what happened at this dinner held at Jeffrey Dahmer's house in 1991, several months before Dahmer was arrested for killing and eating 17 men and boys. Mr. Huppke only ate the salad that night.
Statement from the NYT, which is useful context, but still feel like you gotta mention it in the column!

The Oscars will be streamed exclusively on YouTube.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said that it had reached a deal with YouTube for exclusive rights to the show starting in 2029.

Right, because demand is well known to cause prices to drop. 🤦♂️
Trump’s Energy Secretary Chris Wright: “If you want low electricity prices …you want to build data centers. I know they’re controversial, but if you look at the states that have growing demand for electricity, they have flat or declining electricity prices.”

In point of fact, dementia sufferers are commonly unrealistic about their decline, or go to great lengths to mask it. I don’t need to be a doctor to say one or both of these are what we’re seeing here.
