I’ve been slow to roll out predictions regarding the current administration. I respect the people who have made a few, but I think that these haven’t exactly been bold. Here’s a few that I’m gonna throw out there, and I’ll likely add to it over time. 1) Deficit will increase

Absolutely incredible. Also illustrates how labor may become more valuable.

🫡 I love to see subscribers losing weight! Losing 6% of body weight in two months is easy. Many of you could do it, and the monthly cost behind these drugs is only about $25. It's so cheap that most people save money on food! If you want to join him, click the link below.

It's Black Friday and GLP-1 deals are here! - Semaglutide: $19.81 a month (2.4mg/wk) - Tirzepatide: $53.77 a month (15mg/wk) - Retatrutide: $30.77 a month (4mg/wk) My subscribers have lost tens of thousands of pounds of fat and I anticipate so much more! Link below!

I used to think that society would, over time, have fewer and fewer false beliefs because of how easily correct information could be could be obtained. But there are just *so many* things passing as conventional wisdom that are simply untrue, and the romanticizing of air travel

TIL I know 50 people that follow Candace Owens. Yikes.

@mattyglesias It's an AI hallucinated article but it feels true to people and they're pretty sure that's what really matters

Every single Republican senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr. knew exactly what they were getting. They just couldn't afford to cross Trump. So they had to act like they had extracted real concessions - and now act "betrayed" as RFK behaves exactly like everyone knew he would.

Real talk

The evidence that GLP-1 drugs can protect from cognitive decline keeps rolling out. Now, we have a meta-analysis of trials showing that these drugs provide clinically meaningful improvements in the rate of cognitive decline compared to placebo or other, conventional treatment.

Retatrutide is such an incredible drug. Every other company is competing for second place against tirzepatide while Lilly is jumping ahead to maintain first.

I don't know what's worse -- dismissing the murder of a journalist with "things happen," or saying that MBS "knew nothing about it." Trump's own administration reported to Congress that MBS was responsible for killing Khashoggi.

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

MAGA in 2020: "Save the children!" MAGA in 2025: "What even is a child, anyway?"

pretty incredible

The irony gods, the writers of 2025, divine purpose, call it what you want, but someone up there clearly thought it would be hilarious to create a movement based on decoding pizza boxes for hidden clues and then present them this evidence board

I asked Matt for his shutdown thoughts and then he wrote this informative piece!* I understand the shutdown much better now, so thank you, Matt! *correlation does not equal causation

If you're a 300-pound, 45% body fat man and you get on tirzepatide and have a totally average -20pp response for two years straight, you'll cut down to 22% body fat. You will actually be CONSIDERABLY fitter than the typical American male aged 18-59. It's that easy.

I've long opposed the filibuster and lots of people would say "well how would you feel if the R's had united government and no filibuster" and my answer is: fine! it would be better to have congress doing stuff and actually passing laws than a wannabe dictator issuing decrees

High-stakes trust fall!
