@TheHost_ This is dangerous nonsense. Insulin does not cause weight loss in non-diabetics. It is an anabolic hormone that promotes fat storage. Injecting insulin when you don’t need it will drive your blood sugar dangerously low and can kill you. You will not lose weight.

CNN, ABC, NBC, which aired Joe Biden’s “Red Speech” — in which he declared that half the country consisted of domestic terrorists — are refusing to air President Trump’s address to the nation.

Democracy dies in darkness, as they say.

It appears after today's testimony, both Candace and Tyler are guilty.

I will never unite with people who have spent every single minute of every single day since the brutal murder of Charlie Kirk trying to destroy his character, his legacy, the organization he built, and his wife.

Something was happening in America in the days after he died. People who had never opened a Bible were picking one up for the first time.

People who hadn’t seen the inside of a church in twenty years were walking through the doors.

Out of the worst thing imaginable, God was doing exactly what Charlie prayed he would do with his life, and it was visible, and it was spreading. That was the silver lining. That was our hope, and prayer that this tragedy would spark a revival.

But these demons couldn’t allow it.

They couldn’t even wait one day. On the literal day he was murdered they were already spinning conspiracies, already cutting clips, already monetizing the ��questions.”

And when hijacking his death wasn’t enough, they went after his legacy. They released his personal messages. They dug through his private life for ammunition. They took a man who could no longer speak for himself and began rewriting him, twisting his words, reframing his friendships, until they could claim, with straight faces, that Charlie was secretly becoming one of them.

They retroactively converted a dead man. Without his consent. Charlie spent years publicly refuting everything they stand for, and they waited until he could no longer answer, so they could recruit his corpse.

I have never seen anything so evil and so coordinated and so vicious in my entire life.

Whatever side they’re on I am on the opposite side of that. I want to be the opposite of everything they think is good beautiful and true.

@LindyTango @GuntherEagleman @grok It’s Brandon Lake’s “Gratitude.” His concerts are amazing!

Charlie Kirk described the rise of Zohran Mamdani as a "distress signal" from Gen Z.

"Most people are missing the point of really what this is..."

"This is yet another distress signal by young people to say, 'Hey, if you're not going to fix our life economically, we're going to get very radical politically.'"

- 75% of voters under the age of 30 voted for Mamdani.

- 48% of Gen Z adults don't feel financially secure (Business Insider).

- 55% of Gen Z adults list either cost of living or unemployment as their main concern (NCSC).

- 60% of graduates, according to a survey in June, were still looking for their first jobs (The Guardian).

- The median age of first-time home buyers has jumped to 40 years old. The median age was 33, just five years ago (Realtor).

- The share of home purchases by first-time buyers has plunged to 21%, the lowest on record (Realtor).

@SenAmyKlobuchar My family pays $2800 monthly for health insurance and I am hustling to afford it, along with the $5000 deductible, unlike this couple. Are you posting this in hope that tax payers feel sorry for Bill and Shelly?

[Tyler Bowyer @tylerbowyer]

Arguing on the internet isn’t going to carry on Charlie’s legacy

Registering, recruiting and helping chase ballots will.

Help us!

@jk_rowling This! Every. Single. Word. So proud of you.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

I'm seeing quite a bit of comment about this, so I want to make a couple of points.

I'm not owed eternal agreement from any actor who once played a character I created. The idea is as ludicrous as me checking with the boss I had when I was twenty-one for what opinions I should hold these days.

Emma Watson and her co-stars have every right to embrace gender identity ideology. Such beliefs are legally protected, and I wouldn't want to see any of them threatened with loss of work, or violence, or death, because of them.

However, Emma and Dan in particular have both made it clear over the last few years that they think our former professional association gives them a particular right - nay, obligation - to critique me and my views in public. Years after they finished acting in Potter, they continue to assume the role of de facto spokespeople for the world I created.

When you've known people since they were ten years old it's hard to shake a certain protectiveness. Until quite recently, I hadn't managed to throw off the memory of children who needed to be gently coaxed through their dialogue in a big scary film studio. For the past few years, I've repeatedly declined invitations from journalists to comment on Emma specifically, most notably on the Witch Trials of JK Rowling. Ironically, I told the producers that I didn't want her to be hounded as the result of anything I said.

The television presenter in the attached clip highlights Emma's 'all witches' speech, and in truth, that was a turning point for me, but it had a postscript that hurt far more than the speech itself. Emma asked someone to pass on a handwritten note from her to me, which contained the single sentence 'I'm so sorry for what you're going through' (she has my phone number). This was back when the death, rape and torture threats against me were at their peak, at a time when my personal security measures had had to be tightened considerably and I was constantly worried for my family's safety. Emma had just publicly poured more petrol on the flames, yet thought a one line expression of concern from her would reassure me of her fundamental sympathy and kindness.

Like other people who've never experienced adult life uncushioned by wealth and fame, Emma has so little experience of real life she's ignorant of how ignorant she is. She'll never need a homeless shelter. She's never going to be placed on a mixed sex public hospital ward. I'd be astounded if she's been in a high street changing room since childhood. Her 'public bathroom' is single occupancy and comes with a security man standing guard outside the door. Has she had to strip off in a newly mixed-sex changing room at a council-run swimming pool? Is she ever likely to need a state-run rape crisis centre that refuses to guarantee an all-female service? To find herself sharing a prison cell with a male rapist who's identified into the women's prison?

I wasn't a multimillionaire at fourteen. I lived in poverty while writing the book that made Emma famous. I therefore understand from my own life experience what the trashing of women's rights in which Emma has so enthusiastically participated means to women and girls without her privileges.

The greatest irony here is that, had Emma not decided in her most recent interview to declare that she loves and treasures me - a change of tack I suspect she's adopted because she's noticed full-throated condemnation of me is no longer quite as fashionable as it was - I might never have been this honest.

Adults can't expect to cosy up to an activist movement that regularly calls for a friend's assassination, then assert their right to the former friend's love, as though the friend was in fact their mother. Emma is rightly free to disagree with me and indeed to discuss her feelings about me in public - but I have the same right, and I've finally decided to exercise it.
