Every time I hear a MAGA saying this I laugh to myself.
Gonna be a rude awakening when it hits them that they lost, too.

The Singaporeans are giving out free beer made from recycled toilet water at the COP29 climate summit. “At first their eyes widen,” one of the leaders of Singapore’s youth delegation said. “Then we reassure them. They’re usually coming back the next day for another.”
At COP29, ‘Sewage Beer’ Is Just Fine
The hoppy pilsner from Singapore, where freshwater is scarce, is part of an effort to promote recycling solutions.

Don't forget that Dr. Oz:
- Pushed Medicare privatization plans on his show
- Owns up to $600k in stock in private insurers
- Has ties to pyramid scheme companies that promote fake medical cures
His main qualification to oversee Medicare & Medicaid is loyalty to Trump.

Dr. Oz had to pay $5.25 million to settle a class action suit for promoting phony weight loss cures.
He is a conman. No wonder Trump likes him.

Dr. Oz has called abortion under any circumstances "murder."
There are dozens of ways he could use his authority at CMS to restrict access to reproductive care.

Oz, who has a history of making degrading remarks about women, has no government experience. As a candidate for Senate in 2022, he expressed opposition to abortion at any point in pregnancy.

Reminder: The key to economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the wealthy. The secret to prosperity is investment in American workers.
When workers have more to spend, the economy grows, and businesses create more jobs.
It’s a virtuous cycle.

This would destroy the Senate’s traditional right to give advice and consent to all top White House appointments. It would be a dangerous realignment of power, giving Mike Johnson a way around the Senate. It must be rejected.
