The single deadliest drug in America is tobacco, which is legal. The second deadliest is alcohol, also legal. For every person who dies from fentanyl, about 8 die from alcohol and tobacco, if I got my math right.

For all those people who think “the left got more radical,” this is what the evolution of the GOP has looked like over the past few years.

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.
For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

STRESS KILLS.
60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, struggling every day to keep their families going.
The result: working class people die 7 years earlier than the rich.
We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.

PEPFAR has saved an estimated 25 million lives.
5.5 million babies have been born HIV-free as a result of PEPFAR.
All of this progress is in peril now as Trump looks set to end PEPFAR permanently.
The result will be a global catastrophe.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: So, I think what American farmers are waking up to is the fact that Canadians are no longer buying their products. We’re just not going to participate in this abusive relationship. You threaten us, we don’t buy your products. How about that?

I sure would like to know who has been buying the dips right before Trump announces he has changed his mind and reverses a tariff. Seems like valuable information in the markets to know when he announces a tariff and when he’s going to rescind it.

Just an obvious point that anyone with the inside word on when these these total reversals are going to be announced is in a position to make almost limitless amounts of money. Don't forget that given the kind of people who make up this administration.
