The President says elections should be nationalized. Isn't that what is done in Russia? GOP preaches "states rights" until things are done they don't like, then the Feds take it over. World's biggest hypocrites.

We have to start SHUNNING COMPANIES that keep switching from "OWNING to SUBSCRIPTION"

I heard CAR COMPANIES are planning on making cars sub-only. If you want "extra features," like heated/cooled seats, your sub fee INCREASES.

PUNISH every company that does this.

KILL CORPORATE RULE!!

If this is our government's position, then why not release ALL THE FILES?

There is an overwhelming amount of evidence being ignored here, including affidavits signed as sworn testimony under oath by the victims and pictures not yet released.

When are we going to start believing the victims?

Thank you to all the new connections. We are analyzing and working as fast as we can on the Epstein files, but they are still incomplete and we are responsibly reporting so it may take some time. Stick with me

If all these rich men "regret" their time with Epstein then why didn't they announce prior to the release of the files that their names would be part of the collection? Why didn't they self-report? The answer is they are not sorry and have no regret. They are sorry and regret they got caught.

More than half the drugs on the TrumpRx site have a cheaper generic version on the market.

Pristiq, an antidepressant, is available with a TrumpRx coupon for ~$200 for a 30-day supply.

A generic version is on GoodRx for less than $30 and Mark Cuban's CostPlusDrugs for $16.65.
How TrumpRx drug prices compare to generic alternatives
Patients could save more buying non-branded copycat drugs, even if they don't have insurance.

At least 30 scientists, including famous paleontologist Jack Horner and theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, have been named in the Epstein files so far. Once again proving that shitty men think with the wrong head no matter how smart they are.

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files.

Except in the United States.

Here: Zero shame, zero consequences.

We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

Tariffs are showing up on your bill hidden in the price of products that are significantly higher now than they were before tariffs. Imported agricultural machinery cost more. Businesses aren't taking the big hits; they're passing most of the tariffs to customers/consumers.

I'm entirely serious about this: until you internalize the view that urban America is Real America, you won't see the urgency of structural reform of an American government whose fundamental structures so disadvantage its population centers—the great engines of its prosperity, progress, & culture.
Another good practice for the New Year would be for all the non-fascists in America who want to opine about politics to really begin believing that urban America is Real America & that its denizens are The Authentic People. Get some self-respect & drop the volkish nationalist view that they're not
And I think liberals should stop taking the bait and ceding ground on immigration.

Immigration is good. Multiculturalism is good. Free trade is good. Stop being embarrassed to say so.
