Quarky wisdom

[Mike Nellis @MikeNellis]

So it seems increasingly likely that Taylor Farms is responsible for the diarrhea outbreak in the country, BUT they got the FDA to step in and claim it was a “false positive” after a bunch of White House meetings and donations.

We’ll probably never know, but it tracks with how these people operate.

If Andy Beshear has 2028 aspirations, he's giving us a pretty good indication of the type of president he would be.

Those who cannot meet this moment need not apply.

[The Constitutionalist 🇺🇸 @WeWillBeFree24]

If Section 219 of the NDAA passes, every Republican who voted for it should lose their seat, and Trump should be impeached.

Do we understand that Mitch McConnell isn’t just another trending topic? He’s a US senator who disappeared into the back of an ambulance 37 days ago and left his constituents without representation, while his own staff won’t say whether they’ve even spoken to him since.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

.@RepThomasMassie and I are leading the fight against military integration with Israel.

Congress was denied a vote on an amendment to stop it. Now we will fight to strip this provision in the conference between the House and Senate.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

It’s worth noting that Taco Bell identified the source before the FDA did and promptly pulled it. Basically, Taco Bell is now a more reliable authority than the FDA

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

This will be the most watched recorded vote in modern times.
It will give a list of names of every Member of Congress who betrayed America, committed treason, and sold out the American people to a foreign country.

[Tim Hannan @TimHannan]

Andy Beshear is demonstrating why voters are pushing out incumbent democrats. What a pathetic response to covering up McConnell’s death. “I haven’t heard anything”. Dude get off your fucking ass and go down to the hospital. Cause a fucking scene. We’re tired of this shit.

[Hey, Dave! @davegreenidge57]

Now that Taylor Farms has proven that they can bypass food safety regulations if they simply write a check to the right person, if you’re a company who sells or uses their products, then your brand just got tagged as being potentially, unsafe. Smart money says drop them, fast.😏

[Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @RepAOC]

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF.

This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy.

Every member of Congress must vote NO.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Mayor Zohran Mamdani just did something his critics swore a socialist would never do: cut fines, fees, permits, and red tape for small businesses.

More than 50 reforms will make it easier for restaurants, bodegas, barbershops, retailers, and drivers to operate—including killing the absurd second permit restaurants need just to serve ice cream.

Less bureaucracy. Lower costs. More time running the business.

That is what competent government looks like.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

He’s talking about a spending bill that’s $75 billion for military expenses in Iran.

It has a $10 billion bribe to states for election security: NOT the SAVE Act.

They’ll include it in the Rule for the NDAA (w/ section 219!) to force Republicans to vote yes. Don’t fall for it.

[Machine Pun Kelly 🇺🇦 @KellyScaletta]

It's kind of amazing that the FBI said they had video of Tom Homan taking a $50K bribe, and then we just moved on from that.

[MP Arizona☀️🏳️‍🌈💙🌵🐕🐕‍🦺🫂💦🏜🐟🌴🎙🌎🌻♍️🌊 @AzPetrich]

Long story short, even after this outbreak has passed, we need to avoid all Taylor Farms products.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Mamdani: In a win for every ice cream lover across New York City, we will work with the state to do away with the frozen dessert permit that requires restaurants to seek out a superfluous second permit for what they’re already doing: serving food.

No more treat-sploitation, as we say.

Right now, barbershops need three licenses to cut hair: one to be a barber, one to own the shop, and one from the city on top of both.

The state of affairs is frankly anti-fade, and we will not stand for it, which is why we will work with the state to streamline these licenses as well.

And to the bingo enthusiasts out there, for too long, the potential earnings of a hot streak at bingo have been capped by arcane rules that no longer reflect how the game is actually being played.

With OPEN, DCWP will remove unnecessary regulations, including prize limits.

These are just a few of the improvements we are proud to announce today as we make it clear we are in the pocket of Big Abuela.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

Any food company that bribed this administration to cut regulations that sickened Americans should be sued into the ground and the CEO put in prison.

[Vaibhav Sisinty @VaibhavSisinty]

A college student just killed the biggest advantage politicians have ever had. The gap between the lie and the fact-check.

He built a Chrome extension called InTruth. It listens to any live speech, debate, or interview.

Transcribes every word. And checks every claim against real sources in real time. Before the speaker even finishes the sentence.

It works on debates. Press conferences. Town halls. Interviews. Anything with someone talking on video. The fact-check shows up on your screen while they're still talking.

Until now, fact-checking happened hours or days later. By then the clip has been shared, the headline has been written, and the damage is done. Nobody reads the correction.

InTruth closes that gap to seconds. The claim and the fact-check exist in the same moment.

A college student, a Chrome extension, and an AI model just did what entire newsrooms couldn't figure out for decades.

He gave Ghislaine Maxwell nine hours. Epstein survivors got almost nothing.
Tell your senators: reject Todd Blanche.

@YourTaylorFarms The CEO and FDA commissioner should eat a random bag of Taylor lettuce from the shelf. On camera. Live.
