NOPE not cheaper—it even touts inflated prices to make it look like a discount when it’s not really.

💊NOT CHEAPER—TrumpRx claims he cuts prices on the “fat shot” (GLP-1) drugs—but not only is Zepbound cheaper directly from pharma’s website than on TrumpRx—but TrumpRx’s list price is higher! Furthermore, TrumpRx retail price is artificially inflated (akin to inflated Macy’s $).

They didn’t delete the meme or blame a staffer because they realized it was racist and the right thing to do.

They didn’t because of public outrage.

They did it because Republican senators FINALLY spoke out and they backed down.

There’s a lesson in that if they will learn it.

Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning?

No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!

Gun control could have been sensible. Many just wanted school children to stop being massacred. But 2A enthusiasts instead chose the party threatening jail to anyone who legally carries when they say you can’t.

So, how much of this current shit show stems from the fragility of right wing men? Well, fragility and the noise being made as cover?
These guys two months ago: ha ha I hope there's a civil war we'll make those LIBERAL BITCHES cry for mercy

The images we're reporting on here were up for at least a day and a half, from Friday's release to Sunday. The DOJ has a tipline for reporting unredacted info. So they're hoping random members of the public help them find and remove what they failed to protect. www.404media.co/doj-released...
DOJ Released Unredacted Nude Images in Epstein Files
A note from investigators in the files said some images Epstein had were "POSSIBLE CSAM."

Apparently those poor DOJ elves working feverishly to protect the guilty weren't instructed on how to protect the victims.
“Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous,” a group of 18 survivors of Epstein’s abuse said in a joint statement reacting to the release of data exposing their identities.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

I did not like "Confederacy of Dunces" because my sense of humor is just flawed, but now that I see how Bari Weiss has used it as a manual for failing up, I might have to reread it.

Two items in a row in my feed: Thune won't publicly back Noem, and George Will says its our patriotic duty to assume everything ICE says is a lie ...

To borrow @gelliottmorris.com's line, this really does feel like a tipping point.

I don't want to spoil the story, but it's a fascinating one.
I'm trying a new "see how well AI image gen is" test. This time I'm going to ask it to draw a map of the world, and then zoom in to Europe, the UK, Yorkshire and York to see when things start to get hazy.

All of these are with the free models using the smart/thinking variants. 1/n

At this point, it's clearly more efficient to assume that anyone in or supporting the Trump administration is lying.
To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally."

In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

Scalise lies: "The want to defund ICE. They defunded police. The police chief of Mpls said yesterday multiple times how stretched thin his department is. They don't have enough people because Mpls defunded the police." (Police were not defunded and MPD is stretched thin bc of unrest caused by ICE)

Undoubtedly, Kyiv is facing the greatest number of challenges right now. I expect Kyiv’s city authorities to step up their work.

"Defund ICE" is not a radical proposition.
Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

I'm certain they are not aware. Instead of consulting their own moral compasses, they're going with a focus on affordability and missing just how enraged so many of us are over having the Gestapo on American streets.
I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity.

They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.
