$100 increasing to $600 is a 500% increase. That’s all anyone needs to know about this interaction. Oh and that the 10 people who agreed with RFK here, or said nothing, are equally as stupid as he is.
RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'" Trump: "Right"
The non response given by two lawyers, one of them, a criminal defense attorney, tells you everything you need to know here.
REPORTER: Can you say definitively that you have not been intoxicated or absent during your tenure as FBI director? PATEL: I can say unequivocally I never listen to the fake news mafia. This director has been on the job twice as many days as every one before me. I've taken half as many days off.

👀 Gov @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Trump is threatening to defund California — we’re a donor state. We put in $80 Billion more than we get… maybe we should withhold those resources.” www.instagram.com/reel/DKlRUa6... We’ve been wondering when this would start to become a thing.

Was able to speak for a while this morning as @booker.senate.gov enters Hour 13 of holding the Senate floor. With two glasses of water and sheer determination, he’s telling the world that America is fighting back against this President. Go Cory!

I got an ad from the ACLU tonight while scrolling shorts. The link afterwards didn’t ask for money to help them fight for all of our rights, it simply asked me sign up for their newsletter. Which, honestly, they’re someone I want to hear from and you should too: action.aclu.org/signup/get-u...

Trump posted a tweet from a Tom Homan parody account, apparently thinking it was the real account of his “border czar.”
If we don’t have respect for one another, then what the hell are we actually doing? I will never… ever understand this argument from the right. Sorry. If Lindsay Graham can be straight, Sally can be Sam, and we can refer them as he/they if that’s what they fucking want.
Whichever pronouns you want me to use are the ones I’m using for you
