Doing this, w/o subsidizing domestic pharmaceutical R&D, CapEx, etc. makes zero sense."

I can’t blame MAGA voters for sticking with Trump.
After all, having to admit that you’re responsible for destroying your own future, the future of your children, livelihoods and your own country might be a bit much to bear for some.
Continuing to support Trump must just be easier than admitting you’re a sucker who gave away your rights and freedoms.

There was the market crash of 2019 and again in 2025. Both happened while Trump was in the WH. Pretty hard to deny that he’s the one responsible.
One thing we learned in 2019 and again in 2025 … Donald Trump is great at putting the economy and the stock markets into the toilet.
Democrats must be getting tired of constantly having to straighten out the economic mess left behind by the Republicans.

#Trump envoy's embrace of #Russia’s demands worries #Republicans, US #allies
<48 hrs after dining w/a negotiator sent by #Putin in Washington last week, #SteveWitkoff, the US special envoy leading talks w/Moscow, sat down w/ #Trump & delivered a clear message.
The fastest way to broker a ceasefire in #Ukraine, said Witkoff, was to support a strategy that would give Russia ownership of four eastern Ukrainian regions it attempted to annex illegally in 2022.

"If one is interested in combating antisemitism, one has to preserve the concept, one has to preserve the word. If we allow it to become just a stick by which people, including antisemites, beat other people, if we allow it to become just one more bureaucratic tool that the government uses in order to deny people their rights or in order to destroy higher education, then it can't be used for the thing that it's meant to be used for…."
"If we allow the government to claim that it is fighting antisemitism when it is in fact fomenting antisemitism, then we lose the concept. We lose the word. We lose the ability to describe the phenomenon. Antisemitism is a very real phenomenon, one which unfortunately is getting worse all the time, not just the United States, but around the world."

@wokerati Comment: Esp. with 7. and 10. there are problems. Why not make clear that the Civil Rights Movement and Gandhi had violent powers as a shere critical mass itself, had (in the US) the Black Panther as another option; and who needs a holy Popstar telling a truism? Remember Lennon's song "Revolution" and the line about destruction and the words "You can count me out / in". Anyway artists can be supported but why exactly? A movement needs people.
