President Trump Announces Weight Loss Drug Pricing Deal
YouTube video by C-SPAN President Trump Announces Weight Loss Drug Pricing Deal

Catching up on news. Love how he is reading information that seems completely new to him despite supposedly making this deal for the reasons stated in the speech. Also the shout out to CEO pay, mixing up charges from other countries & profit of drug companies.

I've been out of the loop but did Justice Brown Jackson block the judges order to make the administration pay SNAP?

Just started watching "The Godfather of Harlem" and wanted to know about the relationship between Bumpy Johnson and Malcolm X. I stumbled onto this piece that opened up other interesting works: medium.com/@tnimixtape/...

I am probably not the best for details. I think it was popularized in the West in the 60s but I know very little about it.

I write my columns sitting in a New Haven cafΓ©, eating waffles and lattΓ©s served by comely young immmigrant waitresses. Here’s how women ruined my workplace.

I definitely get a talking to if I deviate from our routine. Worried about a long trip we're taking next summer and who to watch her. She is very entrenched in her routine.

The factional grifters will hate this, but the Mamdani-Spanberger-Sherrill axis actually suggests the outlines of a broad, emerging Dem coalition organized around both anti-Trump *and* affordability politics, not a party bitterly divided against itself.

so much to love in this mayoral campaign's videos, but my favorite might be this line from the one posted below: "And to the billionaires who think this movement is an existential threat to their corruption of our democracy: you're right."

It looks like public polls had a small Republican bias in VA and a relatively large one in NJ this year.

Saw Swell Season at Wolf Trap this summer and they played this fantastic new song. Glenn talked about it speaking to a time when we're done with certain people in power. Seems like a good night to listen.

To understand what was at stake here: in VA, the AG gets to appoint university counsel. From Jim Ryan’s forced resignation to the (mercifully) reject β€œCompact” to the odious and bizarre β€œsettlement,” UVA has been hamstrung by counsel chosen by the state’s GOP administration. That’s about to change.
