Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

What they thought would happen was that trans kids would go “oh well” and then not be trans anymore.

That’s what they think about trans people generally. That we’re just sort of doing this as a lark, and if they make it inconvenient enough we’ll shrug and move on to something else.
What did you think would happen when you restricted access to care?

I’ve been notified of two more deaths in ICE custody in the last 24 hours — meaning that 25 people have now died in detention since Trump returned to office.

That’s the most in more than two decades. The cruelty and inhumanity of this administration must end.

I like this proposal to progressively tax high CEO-to-worker pay ratios. This is what every tax should consider—how it can shape behavior in a desired direction.

I'll add that I think this should be paid in newly issued shares into a national UBI-paying fund that all corps should pay into annually.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

I have never had shingles myself but the consensus among people I know who have is exactly what Kelly says here: "worst pain of my life."

Get the vaccine. The side effects are just your immune system doing it's thing for a short time after encountering the vaccine. It's normal human biology.
PSA: if anyone in your life is trying to dissuade you from getting the shingles shot, you should probably assume that person hates you, and wants you to suffer. There is literally no other explanation.

Shingles hurts worse than childbirth. Worse than knee surgery. Worst pain of my life.
I am baffled by this because I have had so many friends with shingles and NONE of them made it sound fun. Not one. A vaccine that made me absolutely miserable for 48 hours would still be a huge improvement over the mildest case of shingles I've heard of. (Also it made me tired for 1 day.)

A few weeks ago, my dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I won’t lie—it's been incredibly challenging for me and my family.

Now, I’m embarking on a journey to answer the questions so many of us face when it comes to providing care for our loved ones.

I hope you’ll join me.

Yes, and what if your access to affordable healthcare was considered a right guaranteed to everyone by the government and not a bauble of certain types of employment or friggin club store membership? What then?
Rand Paul on his healthcare plan: "What if you could join Costco? Costco has 44m members and if one person negotiated for all 44 and they bought a group plan like Toyota or General Motors does, they would be the largest collective entity in the country. They would drive prices down by sheer might."

Trump's farmer bailout will primarily go to massive row-crop farmers. Big Ag as they say. Smaller and diversified farms are getting something else - it rhymes with shackjit.
Trump is going to dump tens of $ billions in payments for huge commodity farmers to compensate for huge losses they will suffer from his idiotic trade war. Meanwhile, small farmers growing for local markets will get nothing. Just canceled grants and "thoughts and prayers". wapo.st/3YXdAbU

I remember talking ~shingles in class and thinking, “I could probably handle the pain”…

In my 40s, shingles emerged in my hairline and spread across my face.

I’m here to tell you, it hurt like a mother&^%er, and that was before it spread to my eye.

People can go blind from it.

Get the vaccine.

In 1996, Donald Trump crashed a gala fundraiser for a pediatric AIDS charity and took a seat on the dais. He wasn't invited. He hadn't even contributed to the charity, and never did. He just wanted to be at the front of the room, receiving honor and applause.

Trump boasts about his philanthropy. But his giving falls short of his words.
The Republican has not followed through on many of his promises to give to charity.
