I assume Orban conceded because the opposition's victory is too staggeringly large to deny.

It's important for us to remember that, were he in Orban's position, Trump would never concede, no matter how large the margin.

"Medical and pharmaceutical claims, diagnoses, treatments, visit length, provider information, doctor’s notes or after-visit summaries..."

All "with identifying information, such as names and birth dates"

Fmr Trump spokesman: "Let's be consistent."

BTC: "I am being consistent-- that's the problem. I watched Trump on the campaign trail disparage all these other politicians who engaged in wars in the Middle East. And yet here we are. We have dead Americans, rising oil prices, and a war with no plan."

People who’ve never served are often the quickest to start dropping bombs without a plan for what’s next.

The American people have seen this play out before and they’re tired of it. Trump is sending our servicemembers into harm’s way without a clear explanation or an end goal.

Howard Lutnick, US Commerce Secretary and architect of Trump's tariff plans, stepped down from Cantor Fitzgerald (now run by his sons) before taking office. Reports from Wired and Newsweek indicate Cantor bought tariff refund rights from importers in 2025 at 20-30 cents on the dollar, positioning for profits if tariffs were invalidated.

Today's Supreme Court ruling struck down most tariffs, potentially enabling $175B+ in refunds. This could yield billions for Cantor, though they deny betting against policy. A Senate probe examines conflicts.

Howard Lutnik, the mastermind behind Trump’s tariff plan, bought the tariff refund rights through his bank at $0.25 on the dollar last year. Actively betting on his own policy to not work.

Lutnik and his bank now stand to make billions.

I’m begging you, with tears in my eyes.

Please stop using AI to write your tweets.

We see the AI cadence. It’s not fooling anyone.

Say it with me: AI is for research, not for becoming your entire personality.

A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
