Wall Street traders can now pay for early access to Trump's Truth Social posts. The President regularly uses his platform to announce policy decisions that impact the market. A corporate CEO would get jail time for this. Trump's getting a pay bump.

I’m heading into the hospital shortly to round on patients, and if any of them are acting like the president, I’ll be looking for their nurse and asking how long they’ve been this way, whether they received sedating medications, and if the primary team is aware of their mental status changes. 🤷🏻♂️
New in PN: Trump's cognitive impairment endangers us all "No one in the administration has offered a remotely plausible explanation for Trump’s various physical ailments, and any questions about his clear cognitive challenges are met by the White House with disdain, denial, mockery, and lies."

Exactly this: “Just as Hitler’s failures led him to resent the German people ever more strongly and destructively, we can expect Trump’s growing frustration to result in ever more nihilistic and destructive actions as his term moves toward its end.” Excellent piece by @davidrlurie.com
