Stunning stats: Before "2007, people in the US never purchased more than 7M guns in a single year. By the time Barack Obama left office, the US was purchasing almost 17M guns a year." In 2020 US consumers "bought almost 23M guns in a single year." https://t.co/Hh5Irrogn3

Footnote: The fact that @Costco will be raising membership rates to accommodate this "partnership" will cause many to rethink their "membership." As it is ... the Costco friction (distance/parking/check-out) is adding up ... and there are other sources for H20 and TP :-)

@esmccalley @Gil_Bashe @HLTHEVENT @TCLawry @JohnNosta @ZGJR if @DanMunro’s book #casinohealthcare was read by everyone in the country…..then we would all understand how the game is rigged for the house. #hlth2023 🎰💰💸

There's bound to be lots of hyperventilating over this announcement, but since low-acuity/primary care isn't the problem w/ US Healthcare - this isn't even *part* of the solution - and it certainly won't dent our $4+T annual healthcare spending. https://t.co/0i09y6lhl6 .

Banishing accounts (@profgalloway) Hijacking accounts (@music) Throttling news feeds (@nyt @Reuters etc ...) Forcing a subscription model to use tweetdeck ... Thinking $7/mo is more "enticing" than $8 ... What a shit show this has become under Musk. Adios Twitter!

My boss (@profgalloway) has been locked out of his account for > 2 weeks now. @elonmusk I thought this was the free speech platform?

Attacks at U.S. hospitals and medical centers have helped make health care one of the nation’s most violent fields. Data shows American health care workers now suffer more nonfatal injuries from workplace violence than workers in any other profession.

Excellent summary of how RICO works, and why this prosecution may prove so effective.

The Georgia Indictments say there were zero "no bills." That means that the Grand Jury decided to indict in all cases that the DA (the prosecutor) sought. This is very very bad news for Trump, and likely others in his circle.

respected conservative @judgeluttig tells me in a lengthy sit-down, "Any leader, Republican or Democrat, who has not spoken against January 6 and the former president's role in it has betrayed their oath" and should be replaced by the voters

BREAKING: Hunter Biden made $640 million while “working” in daddy’s administration, and received $2 billion from the people behind 9/11. Now that I got Republicans’ attention. That was actually Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.

ICYMI: On allegations that election systems were manipulated, 59 election security experts all agree, "in every case of which we are aware, these claims either have been unsubstantiated or are technically incoherent." #Protect2020

My speech at the Oxford Union is finally available. The debate was "This House Believes Woke Culture Has Gone Too Far". As promised, I didn't hold back 🤣

No wish to alarm you but a radio host for one of the big right wing media companies suggested the President of the United States should perhaps be put to death. https://t.co/L4IGdBkHTw
