I live with 6 Vietnam veterans with mental illness and I work during the day with homeless people who are unsheltered...so can you guess my political affiliation? The streets of this small town are methy.

A day after his โ€˜highly productiveโ€™ call with Putin, Trump echoes the Kremlinโ€™s main talking point by blaming Ukraine, the U.S., and NATO for Putinโ€™s war.

What a fu*king traitor

Canada just signed a trade deal with Ecuador so the orange juice options will increase now that Florida Oranges aren't being bought.
Oasis is a Canadian brand. Minute Maid is bottled here using Brazilian oranges.

I guess Florida can sell elsewhere? If anyone will buy it at this pointโ€ฆ

If I was waiting on someone for a high-level meeting, and they walked in with their child (like Musk did...again), I'd walk out and tell them...as I walked, "When you've found childcare for long enough to meet with me, get in touch with us, and not a second before."

DPS seeks temporary restraining order against Dept. of Homeland Security for removal of 'protected areas' Denver Public Schools is seeking a temporary restraining order against the Dept. of Homeland Security following a policy change that allows immigration enforcement agents to make arrests at schools.

The tRump admin's January move to scrap 2021 protections against ICE arrests in schools and churches is a disgrace. Denver Public Schools is now urgently seeking a restraining order against DHS to safeguard students from these invasive immigration enforcement actions.

So basically, the Department of Health and Human Services is finished. If you want to stay safe from food recalls, viruses, and whatever else is comingโ€”better start looking elsewhere for reliable information.

How a Canadian scientist and a venomous lizard helped pave the way for Ozempic - National | Globalnews.ca In 1984, Dr. Daniel Drucker, an endocrinologist from the University of Toronto, discovered a hormone that helped pave the way for popular diabetes drugs such as Ozempic.

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them โ€” โ€œtheyโ€™re studying the spit of lizards?!โ€ โ€” remind them thatโ€™s exactly how we got Ozempic.

As companies shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation.

Also remember that average profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs.

Needed this so much right now. I just called out the fact that Kendrick Lamar carried that red, white, and blue theme through. He owned it!

My fam knew what that meant.
