Alternate headline: “President Trump takes action to raise the price of vital prescription drugs for millions of American families.”

He promised to lower costs, but he’s already making life more expensive. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Trump reverses Biden policies on drug pricing and Obamacare
The moves are likely to be inconsequential to many people in terms of what they pay in out-of-pocket health care costs.

I completely understand TikTok creators being upset that they are losing income. I don’t understand being upset at Dems when Trump & Rs are the ones who started this. Now they suddenly reverse their position to enrich themselves. Wake up, open your eyes, you’re being conned.

My 2025 budget includes the first sales tax rate cut in our state’s history.
 
We’re committed to lowering costs for Minnesotans.

I see the Democratic weather machine is doing great work again, forcing that inauguration inside. Well done, climate controllers.

Unemployment: 4.1%
Inflation: 2.9%
2024 wage gains: 3.9%
GDP growth rate: 3%

Write that down. For comparison purposes in a year.

We have had soldiers who have fought for our freedom in freezing temperatures while battling Nazis.

Trump is a living disgrace to these fierce veterans who fought for our freedom.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So,I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own.

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).

You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here

THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.

You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

Which is more powerful?

People moving to REDNote as a big FU is peak internet. It’s TikTok’s Chinese dupe, all in Mandarin/Cantonese, and they’re hyping it like crazy—while screenshotting and Google Translating captions just to understand. The irony? Absolutely chef’s kiss.

Fakefact and Insta-lie are trending as perfect nicknames for social media’s truth distortion. In a world where people still refuse to call Twitter “X,” it’s refreshing to see the internet fighting back with some proper rebranding of its own.

For those of you glued to the Hegseth confirmation and may have missed it, Nancy Mace screamed that she was a grown woman and then immediately challenged Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett to physically fight her… so there’s that. Mace continues to be an embarrassment.
