You lost your 401k... and did Trump make money doing it?

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!

This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.

It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

Thank you Shoup for opening our eyes to the fascinating and oft overlooked topic of parking!

In case you missed it: 2024 was the world's warmest year since @noaa.gov records began in 1850.

Global surface temperature was 2.32°F (1.29°C) above the 20th-century average. The 10 warmest years since 1850 have all occurred in the past decade.

Did He?
Elon Musk hardly deserves the benefit of the doubt.
