This dude is good. He doesn’t talk like a politician. He says it like is. Abdul, you got this.

We live in a country where the entire political and media class talks about antisemitism every day, conflates antisemitism with criticism of Israel, meanwhile prominent Republican members of Congress are saying this with zero pushback from political or media elites.
I can not believe he has become such a rAdIcAl cOnSpIrAcY tHeOrIsT
Dr. @ashishkjha, former White House Covid-19 Response Coordinator, says he now believes the origin of the coronavirus pandemic was likely the Wuhan labs.
“This is going to surprise some people. When I went into the White House, my view was this was almost surely a natural outbreak, maybe a lab leak. Based on information I’ve learned and based on information I’ve seen, I have come to conclude it is more likely to have been a lab leak… We still need transparency and accountability on this.”
“My best assessment is that it probably was a lab leak.”

We now finally have the story of the behind-the-scenes crisis management by Peter Daszak and Shi Zhengli regarding RaTG13 (and other unpublished viruses).🧵👇
The story begins in May 2021, when yours truly posted Yu Ping's 2019 WIV thesis on Twitter. It listed, among other things, "Ra4991" with lower spike identity to SARS (75.4%) than the published RaTG13 (76.6%).
About a month later, on 23 June 2021, Clare Thomas (Nature Senior Editor) emails Shi Zhengli, saying she had been "contacted by someone" but had "not looked at the thesis itself," and requests clarification regarding the discrepancy.
Top drug companies from 2013-2022 literally spent more than 100 PERCENT of their net income on stock buybacks and dividends to enrich their shareholders.
Patents are a means to maximize profit rather than maximize people’s healthcare outcomes. @realtahiramin explains that it’s just legalized price gouging.

This report is jaw dropping, Walmart and Amazon have implemented AI chatbots that explicitly tell you the companies both violate Made in USA fraud laws because it's less expensive than following the law. law-and-economy.law.columbia…

🧵🚨 NEW: Israel is spending millions of dollars to influence AI chatbots—and according to a new Drop Site investigation, it’s working.
Former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale is overseeing a network of websites created for the Israeli government that are increasingly appearing in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and other AI systems.

This is an idiotic thing to put in an email when you’re engaged in a cover up. Here Peter Daszak says that a U.S. news organization is suing for NIH records (that was us) and urges his Chinese counterpart not to release them, telling her that he will claim everything has already been released.
Sloppiest cover up in history, yet it still worked on lots of people.

Well, the baby actually is dead while you appear to be safe and sound with internet access, and the article isn’t about you or any other British Jews but the murder of a Palestinian baby by Israelis, so maybe gain a little self awareness and stop being such a narcissistic monster that you try to make a dead Palestinian baby about you and your manufactured victimhood
Astonishing @thetimes blood libel headline. These people obviously don’t care about British Jews whatsoever. We’re dead.

Hi guys, it’s 2026. It’s ok to admit the virus probably came from a lab, Fauci isn’t a saint, and he almost certainly lied about his knowledge and beliefs about the virus’s origin. Also ok to admit you got this one wrong. None of us is perfect.
Someone will have to explain to me why Democrats insist on dying on the natural origin/Fauci is basically St. Francis hill. There truly are better causes and people to go to bat for

I love that these people don't realize that they are just discussing Walmart's strategy.
This is COMMUNISM.
We have history to show exactly what will happen:
1) Gov opens subsidized grocery stores at 30% below cost.
2) Local stores can’t compete and go under. The city store becomes the only option.
3) Shelves go empty. Rationing starts (“2 per customer”). There will be daily rushes, hoarding, and lines around the block.
4) Quality quietly tanks. Wilted produce, thinner cuts, fewer choices.
5) The subsidy bill balloons forever.
You didn’t solve hunger. You just built another Soviet bread line.

1) he said nothing about sex and your weirdo 2016 smear tactics are see-through these days
2) you don’t need to put “woman” in parentheses when the term “congresswoman” is already gendered

First there was Bernie Bro narrative. Now it's the El Sayed Bro smear. In both cases it's to defeat a man whose policies are better for women than those of his female opponent.

Permanent DST is worse than permanent standard time and carries health issues. In cities, the sun would rise after 8am. We’ve also tried it before. The country hated it, & we went back.
The bill also bans states from opting out (like Arizona, Puerto Rico, and Guam currently do).

On Graham Platner and the guilt-by-media headline that accompanies allegations of sexual misconduct and assault in the post me-too era. Link to article below

A mere accusation cannot be permitted to destroy a person’s career, particularly in politics, and particularly when one political party allows (encourages) it and the other party couldn’t care less as President Donald J. Trump proved.

I'm as shocked ayone, but the most journalistically solid and adversarial interview about the Platner allegations was conducted by Mika Brzezinski; her questions to the POLITICO reporter showed how thin their evidence was.
Now some of the best analysis on Maine is here, too:
Joe and Brzezinski said they were “scratching their heads” as they received calls about “Platner needing to be off the ballot.” They received calls consistently for two weeks from Democrats in Maine about getting Platner off the ballot. The establishment and their media hit squad even had interviews ready to go. I’m not calling anyone a liar, but if you don’t question the timing of the allegation, then you are gullible.
It’s almost like politics and the media are filled with boat loads of dishonest hacks that have no principles and serve only themselves.
And when they express moral outrage, it’s only to manipulate us, just as many of them actively defend genocide and corruption.
