NOTHING TO SEE HERE, GUYS - possible +300% soon ! Just a random microcap, NextNRG ($NXXT), casually mentioned by Forbes in the same breath as Amazon ($AMZN) and Kroger ($KR). According to Forbes, NextNRG (NXXT) already provides fueling services and trucking support for Amazon

The Senate Republican response to the looming expiration of the ACA’s enhanced tax credits is a patchwork of policies that will shift costs onto patients and weaken insurance markets—Congress must extend the enhanced premium tax credits.

Trump and Hegseth’s attacks on Sen. Mark Kelly send a clear warning to the American military: If you cross us, you will pay. More from @amprog's Frank Kendall in @USATODAY :

Its always good to see charity, but this donation to children will be much less impactful than it could be 🧵 The problem lies in the faulty design of “Trump Accounts” 1/6
