Every single person in this administration is an utter embarassment

Whenever one of these freaks goes off on a tangent about their trans conspiracy of the day, the proper response -- from an interviewer or anyone else -- is "well, it seems like you're having some sort of mental breakdown here, so we'll wrap it up"

And Lilly's pipeline for GLP1 meds is even more insane. 7 different drugs, 36 trials listed here but over 40+ trials ongoing for everything from obesity, to diabetes to asthma, depression, substance use disorder, IBS and more. They're accelerating GLP1 development for almost everything. Wild.
Absolutely insane numbers from Eli Lilly this morning. 15 billion dollars in sales for tirzepatide alone, in just 90 days. Now on track to ~55-60 billion in sales for one drug. We need a different term than blockbuster drug. This is wild.
Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.

as noted yesterday, Trump has now come around to treating an Iranian toll system covering the Strait of Hormuz as a given. Hard to overstate the level of strategic failure. US started the war purely as a war of choice and ends up dramatically empowering Iran and given the Iranian govt big wins.
Bill Grueskin@bgrueskin.bsky.social · 7h agoReuters: Iran wants fees of 5%-7% of the price of cargo from ships using the strait; Oman wants 3%. "Making fees voluntary, at least nominally, could be a way out of the impasse, although an implied threat of Iranian attacks could mean shippers would be unlikely to risk transit without paying."
