Wait. The guy who spent years falsely claiming that the Biden administration tried to censor him because they... responded to his dumb declaration about letting everyone get Covid for herd immunity doesn't know how things actually work? Shocking.

Russia doesn’t allow foreign journalists to enter the occupied territories of Ukraine. Three Ukrainians in different Moscow-controlled cities spoke to me secretly “to let the world know what we face”. We changed their names for safety. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Elon Musk denies a NYT story claiming he regularly uses drugs: “To be clear, I’m NOT taking drugs! The New York Times was lying their ass off. I tried prescription ketamine a few years ago and said so on 𝕏…It helps for getting out of dark mental holes, but haven’t taken it since then.” Musk tweeted

The number was bullshit, but somehow Musk was able to seriously cripple medical research and programs that keep doctors up to date. Worst of both worlds.

Here's the NIH's proposed budget - from $48 billion to $27 billion. NIAID, current ~$7 billion cut to ~$4.2 billion. The proposed 15% cap on indirect costs remains. Again, these budgets are passed, and our leadership in science, technology, and innovation is gone. www.hhs.gov/sites/defaul...

If a vaccine is not on the approved childhood or adult vaccination schedule, Medicaid and Medicare will not cover it, and private insurance is not likely to cover it either. This means families with children and pregnant women who want to get a COVID-19 vaccine will have to pay out of pocket for it.

I'm convinced Karp is behind a lot of what is going on. He's smart enough to push Musk out into the spotlight but Karp is the one pulling the strings.

Did he bring non-prescription drugs into the White House? Did he use them in front of the president? Before cabinet meetings? Before canceling Congressionally authorized payments? Just some questions some people might want to have in mind during future press conferences/hearings!

🚨Everything Trump has said about the Qatar plane is a LIE. Amazing story in the Post. - Qatar did NOT offer it, Trump requested it - Qatar expected a sale, not a “gift” - US Air Force says it’s in poor condition - $1.5 billion to make it useable - $500 million ADDITIONAL cost for Trump to keep it.
