my "we left Epstein Island with all of my children" shirt is raising questions that are clearly answered right on the shirt
VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island?

LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children

as a guy who likes a drink and is now on Zepbound I am a very strong believer that GLP-1 agonists are going to transform and possibly destroy the industry
I am not a pot person I do not think anyone should be a pot person but people drinking less booze and smoking more pot is an obvious public health victory.
next up, let’s talk about the “surging pot use” and all the concern about excess cannabis use and put it up against the State of the Booze industry over the past decade (cc: @dinfontay.com) and oh, hey! whadya know? There might be a correlation! Who knew!

There’s clear substitution happening!
