Sometimes I write. Sometimes I dabble in stock/real estate. None of these have anything to do with each other. ;)

Sen. Elizabeth Warren is about to take the controls of the Senate Banking Committee, giving her the kind of expansive authority over the financial industry she has long sought on.wsj.com/47WqLxT

CVS sees the writing on the wall: Americans want to break up the giant corporations dominating health care. But this CEO is not fooling us—this lets CVS continue to own a massive conglomerate and rip people off. We must break up these monopolies and put patients over profits.
The CEO of CVS says @SenWarren and @HawleyMO's Break Up Big Medicine bill is one of the reasons the company is breaking up! 👏

Alzheimer’s science and development are finally catching up to the disease. But right now, the breakthroughs are moving faster than the system built to deliver them, which means a lot of patients aren’t seeing the benefits yet. Fixing that is the next big frontier in Alzheimer’s.

Thanks to reporting done by @MattSeedorff, the city has taken this particular encampment seriously where over 30 dogs and people are living, including dogs being bred and sold. The police, Animal Services, the Councilmember and sanitation are there right now and dogs are being removed!

A week ago this dog was being sold on Skid Row to criminal street gang members to breed and fight him. We intercepted and now look at the angel. This is how puppies should be living.

Joe Rogan just went nuclear over Calley Means quitting the Trump administration. “We’ve been tricked by these fucking crooks.” “The deep state’s real.” “All this stuff was supposed to happen a long time ago.” “They’re fucking hitting the brakes on everything because they want money.” “All these industry insiders are embedded in the government.” “They say they’re going to do something.” “Then they do everything they can to slow it down and keep it from happening.” “You’re putting stuff out there still that we have wanted banned for a long time.” “Fucking glyphosate.” “The food business is reliant on poison.” “RFK Jr. … was explaining to me that they made an executive order to keep glyphosate because otherwise, it would fuck up the food business.” “We can’t operate without this poison.” “These people … have decided to make the most amount of money and poison people.” @joerogan @kurtmetzger @duncantrussell

Top health care companies in the Fortune 500: United Health: #3 CVS Health: #6 Cigna: #14 One way they did it? By buying up every part of the health care system—and squeezing you dry. You shouldn't have to worry about going broke when you get sick. Let's break up Big Medicine.

Our bill to stop private equity from buying up homes is now law. Despite Donald Trump's refusal to sign it, his Administration must now implement it. We'll be watching closely to ensure it's done right.
The Treasury Department on Thursday proposed rules on new restrictions on large investors buying single-family homes, one of the first moves in the federal government to implement the bipartisan housing package that passed over the summer. news.bloombergtax.com/daily-…

Another dead body and another abandoned puppy in government funded housing. Oh, and you know what else they found in the apartment? Crack pipes. Lots and lots of crack pipes. Los Angeles will never learn and all they will do is continue to drain everybody’s bank accounts to keep making housing without resources so more people can die and everybody else ends up with zero dollars in their bank accounts.

"My name is Chaz Self, and I just filed a temporary restraining order against the state of Wisconsin. When my wife and I took over Grassway in 2016, the farm we now call home, we had one dream to feed our community. Becoming a first-generation farmer, I believed in the dairy state was possible. 10 years later, DatCap and the Secretary Randy Romanski are trying to bankrupt us, and the question is why. " Yet another example of government overreach, trying to destroy another farm and family.

🐢 Imagine an island inhabited by more giant tortoises than humans! A staggering 180,000 giant tortoises were found on the Aldabra Atoll in the Seychelles. Down to under 1,000 in the 19th century and near extinction, they have risen from the ashes through strict conservation efforts. This number even exceeds the country's human population! It's truly magnificent to see the miracles we can achieve when we stop destroying nature and focus on protecting it. May all endangered species share this fate!
