🧵Most people don't realise there are whole categories of disease transmission they don't have to think about because they've been taken care of by society, e.g. there are laws & inspections & engineering that protect you from diseases that are waterborne (e.g. sewage treatment),

Dershowitz, who helped Jeffrey Epstein get this sweetheart deal, knows full well that there were almost three dozen dozen girls, ages 13 to 17, who were named in a list that accompanied this plea deal. The final plea PAPERWORK was manipulated to pick just one victim -- and his

1. Raise tariff 2. Collect bribes 3. Reduce tariff It's really that simple. The challenge with describing the economic strategy of the Trump admin is that it's not an "economic" "strategy," it's a "create pain -> collect payoff" mafia formula run over and over again, and admin

The fact that the American president’s former best friend is helping Russia blackmail the president should be a far bigger story than it is. It should be on the front page of every major news outlet

Q: Isn't your assessment that Russia does not really want peace? Rubio: Russia demands the rest of Donetsk, which Ukraine can't accept. They keep striking Ukraine’s grid to demoralize it, losing about 7,000 soldiers a week. Their actions show no real interest in peace. 1/

Another political investigation directed at enemies of the President in order this time to distract from his connections to a notorious pedophile. Of course, he will not have himself investigated under any circumstances. This is a total and complete circus.

GOP Rep. Kevin Kiley, who did not support the Epstein discharge petition, says he will vote yes next week on releasing the Epstein files

No one should care about a doctor’s plan to fix EBM in theory, when they profited from its destruction in reality. A good faith discussion of a bad faith actor. My latest. https://t.co/Nrp5KIoUlG

Decline: German industrial production down to the level of 2005 Yet, the FT journalists studiously avoid mentioning the elephant in the room: Extremely high energy prices, mostly because of climate policy https://t.co/xiCA3aiQkX

I spoke with President of Finland @AlexStubb. Once again, Russia has launched a heinous attack against Ukraine, our people, and ordinary residential buildings. Alex expressed his condolences to the entire Ukrainian nation and condemned this vile Russian strike. I thanked him for
