One of the pharmacists is “just filling in” so told me to call back tomorrow. If a nurse is floated to another unit to cover for that shift they can’t use that excuse, so why do pharmacists?

[liv @EasyMacnMe]

Having ADHD and trying to manage it within the current healthcare system in US is honestly one of the most difficult and infuriating aspects of the condition. 4 calls to 2 pharmacies in the past hour and I’m given 3 different excuses as to why it can’t be filled..

Buddy this country invented "lawyering up".

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. I know @realDonaldTrump and family did.

250 years ago we declared independence from a king who ran the colonies as a family business. In just 18 months the Trumps have made King George look like an amateur.

A $620 million Pentagon loan, the largest in the program’s history, to a company Don Jr.’s firm bought into three months before.

An Air Force drone contract to a startup the princelings took public through a golf course company they own a piece of.

The Army’s largest drone motor order ever, to a company where Don Jr. sits on the board and holds millions in stock.

A $24 million Pentagon robotics contract to the company that employs Eric as Chief Strategy Advisor.

A stake in the largest undeveloped tungsten deposit on earth, in Kazakhstan, backed by $1.6 billion in US government support.

Jared’s fund seeded with $2 billion from the Saudi crown prince, now $6.2 billion, 99% of it foreign money from Gulf governments. Over $110 million in fees collected from the Saudis alone. He negotiates American foreign policy with the governments that pay him.

$2.3 billion from crypto ventures their father regulates. More than a million people bought in and lost $2.3 billion. The money didn’t grow. It simply moved from the subjects pockets to the crown’s coffers.

And the next one is already drafted. A proposed ATF rule that will allow guns to be shipped straight to your front door. The government’s own estimate is 3.3 million home gun deliveries a year. Don Jr. sits on the board of the online gun megastore built to cash in. He holds 300,000 shares.

And that’s only the fraction they’ve allowed us to see. Not one subpoena served. Not one search executed. Why hide anything when you own the investigators?

Me? They searched a laptop for six years. Federal prosecutors. Grand juries. Subpoena power. Congressional hearings. They found nothing. I made about $200k a year selling paintings when my Dad was President, and they made my paintings part of an impeachment inquiry.

For six years they’ve asked Where’s Hunter? What about the laptop?

Wrong questions. The right one is 250 years old. Does America belong to a family?

They’ve given their answer. Long live the King.

A silver spoon is better than what she had to put in her mouth to get that old ass husband and her job.

@RepLuna Great!! Just don’t include you/your staff’s Claude response notes into the language of your legislation proposal this time.

[Bill Ables, Esq. @lawyer_humor]

There is a disturbing trend of young lawyers trying to be concise.

A 2nd-year drafted an executive summary for a banking client using bullet points and plain English.

She proudly stated that she reduced a 50-page compliance memo into a 2-page brief.

I asked her if she thought the client was paying $950 an hour for brevity.

She muttered something about respecting the CEO's time.

I explained that clients don't pay us to solve their problems quickly.

They pay us to make their problems look so incomprehensible that only we can solve them.

I made her rewrite the summary using dense, impenetrable legalese.

It took her 12 hours to bury the conclusion on page 42.

The client called me the next morning to thank us for our incredibly thorough analysis.

Clarity is a customer service concept.

We are in the business of intellectual intimidation.

@HunterBiden thank you for bearing your soul and your experience with addiction and recovery for the world. As the daughter of an addict, your recent interviews and statements have resonated and inspired me to continue supporting my parent out of the hellish thought loop of shame

[Thomas Massie for Congress @MassieforKY]

Israeli citizen Miriam Adelson bought the Dallas Mavericks for $3.5 billion; now she’s buying politicians. She’s spending millions in Kentucky to buy Ed Gallrein, my primary opponent, a Congressional seat in Kentucky. Why? Because I won’t vote to send your tax dollars overseas.

ADHD: The “Quick Online Purchase”

8:00 PM — I need a new pillow.

8:09 PM — I’m comparing memory foam densities.

8:44 PM — A Reddit thread convinces me cooling gel is a scam invented by Big Bedding.

9:30 PM — I’m researching sleep posture across different civilizations.

10:15 PM — Ancient Egyptians apparently used wooden headrests. Horrifying.

11:02 PM — I take a sleep quality quiz with 73 questions.

11:48 PM — I decide I can survive with my current pillow a little longer.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani mocks Ronald Reagan’s infamous quote.

“I can think of nine words more terrifying than ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help…’”

“I worked all day and can’t feed my family.”

“We spotted nine Polymarket accounts, all connected, who made, collectively,$2.4 million betting almost exclusively on U.S. military operations,” says Nicolas Vaiman, co-founder of the small data analytics firm Bubblemaps.

“And now here's the crazy part: 98% win rate.” https://t.co/T79aYM48ZI
