One youngster started crying and said “thank you so much, Bryce!”
Harper gave him a bro hug.

The House is scheduled to vote this week on a National Defense Authorization that would integrate our military tech & supply chains with Israel’s.
Today, the Rules Committee will decide whether my amendment to strip section 219 will get a vote.
RT to support the Massie amdt.!
Can we just start a class action lawsuit against the US government? US Citizens v United States. Gross negligence in handling taxpayer funds would be a good start. Who's in?
Chris Sale says Zack Wheeler not making the All-Star team is a "head-scratcher, to say the least."
"His numbers are better than mine, and I'm sitting here. I'll leave it at that."
Let me be VERY clear for those of you in the back. If bringing down the largest child sex trafficking ring in our known history will "collapse the government as we know it," then the government as we know it needs to collapse.
This disabled American veteran closed his Citibank account voluntarily to move his money to a more veteran-friendly financial institution according to his wife (@isabellebrown on TT). After the account was closed, a disability payment from the federal government posted and Citibank won’t release the funds.
The person on the phone is 4 supervisors deep in the compliance department and admits that they know it is against the law to withhold the funds because they are protected but finally states that the bank is making them do it. Is this really how Citibank treats American veterans? It sounds like the family is prepared to do whatever it takes as this is their only source of income.
I'm always for being open about mental health, but important context is that Kean, as a state rep, voted against the New Jersey Paid Sick Leave Act, which established 40 hours of sick leave for employees a year.
Kean just took *4 months* of paid sick leave.
Do you need a tray mate?
Nah, I'll be OK.
A Dutch supporter ordered 26 pints of Tennants 🍻 in a bar in Scotland on Saturday whilst watching the Netherlands 🇳🇱 take on Sweden 🇸🇪
Unbelievable effort carrying them all back to his mates!

A journalist leaked 11.5 million documents proving the elites, politicians and celebrities were using offshore entities as tax havens, to launder money and to hide assets
The woman who leaked it was named Daphne Caruana Galizia, she was killed by a car bomb near her home
“Remember 10 years ago when the Panama Papers came out and confirmed that elites use offshore bank accounts and shell companies to move their money around and pay as close to zero in taxes as they possibly can? And all that happened was the journalist that leaked it all got assassinated?”
Here’s what happened
A massive leak of 11.5 million documents (2.6+ terabytes) from Mossack Fonseca, a Panamanian law firm specializing in offshore shell companies
It exposed wealthy elites, politicians, celebrities and criminals used offshore entities in tax havens (Panama, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, and more to hide assets, move money secretly, avoid taxes, launder funds, and dodge sanctions.
It involved 214,000+ offshore entities, touching people in 200+ countries. Named 12 current and former world leaders, 128+ other politicians and public officials, plus businessmen, athletes and more
Almost all powerful figures faced little to no personal consequences
Exposing crimes means nothing if no one goes to jail
My wife and I own Forest Park Pharmacy, and we don't accept insurance. None of it. That decision is exactly why we could fix what happened to a patient today.
A family came in wanting to transfer their kid's antibiotic to us. The child had already STARTED the course. Then, mid-treatment, the insurance company decided the last 14 tablets suddenly needed a "prior authorization" before the other pharmacy could hand them over. A sick kid, halfway through an antibiotic, and the answer was "please hold."
The drug is linezolid. It's a generic. It's been generic for over a decade. It treats serious gram-positive infections — the kind you do NOT want to stop antibiotics in the middle of, because an interrupted course is how you breed resistant bugs and end up right back where you started.
So why the hold-up on a cheap, common generic? Follow the fake math.
Insurance and the PBMs behind them price drugs off a number called AWP — "Average Wholesale Price." People in my industry have another name for it: "Ain't What's Paid." It's a benchmark number, not a real-world cost. On paper, the AWP for just those last 14 tablets is about $2,500.
My cash price for the same 14 tablets? $18.
Read that again. The system that's supposedly "protecting" this family from cost is the same system that inflated an $18 medication into a $2,500 line item, then slapped a prior auth on it to "review the expense" THEY invented. They manufactured the problem, then billed everyone for the privilege of solving it — and made a sick kid wait while they did it.
This is the whole game. When a drug is priced honestly, there's nothing to "manage." When it's priced off a fantasy benchmark, you get spread pricing, PA paperwork, pharmacy phone trees, and delayed treatment — all dressed up as cost control.
Here's the part nobody tells you: roughly 90% of prescriptions are low-cost generics. For the vast majority of what people pick up every day, running it through insurance does two things — raises the real cost and risks delaying your care. That's it. That's the value-add.
That's why we fired the insurance companies. No middleman deciding your kid can't finish their antibiotics on schedule. No fake prices. Just the real number, on the shelf, today.
The medication was always cheap. The insurance was the expensive part.
I will never get tired of these scenes. The French fans are here in Philadelphia ahead of tomorrow night’s match against Iraq in the World Cup🇫🇷

They don't want people to figure out that if they just get off their arse they can fix their own community in 2 weeks. They want you to keep paying them taxes so they can fix your community for you. In 3 years. Maybe. Probably not.
