More of the price we are going to pay for electing Trump.


https://x.com/58bugeye/status/1857480985304277469

Dear MAGA, friends & family.
RFK Jr. wants to immediately stop the development of new drugs for cancer, Alzheimers & other illnesses for eight years.
Hope your family stays healthy.
Is this what you signed up for when you voted?

The best case scenario is that US drug companies fall behind on research and development of drugs that we need to cure illness and we end up being dependent upon overseas developers.

My wife had cancer a decade ago, she was cured with surgery, chem and radiation, not out of date procedures and medications.

You better take your blood pressure meds.

So you're one of those guys with disposable families?

reply

You better take your Lithium. Eat some batteries.

reply

You're not going to prattle on about the "gun grab"?

reply

If I do mention it, are you going to claim that Trump's gun grab did not happen, that we had it coming to us? That no one should be allowed to own those kinds of guns, or some other typical Democrat anti-gun talking point?

Why does Trump's nearly complete disregard for our civil rights not seem to bother you at all?

reply

Most people have nearly complete disregard for anything you say as you just post constant waffle.

reply

And you're the resident truth teller? :-p that's cute.

reply

Yes.

reply

You still don't get it. Light years better than HarrisBiden. I'll say it again. One of them was going to win, no matter what you wanted. Trump was the clear choice. Do I agree with him on everything? I've never agreed with ANYONE on everything. Pie in the sky doesn't exist.

reply

Why are you too timid to express an opinion on Trump's disregard for our civil rights?

reply

Specifically what rights? I have guns and no one's trying to take them away. I can even legally have a cannon if I want one. I can't have a bazooka, RPGs or nuclear bombs, but people really shouldn't have things like that.

Who did you vote for? If you say you didn't vote, guess what? Trump got your vote.

Specifically our 1st and 2nd Amendment rights. Trump is a gun grabber just like Biden and Bush. All three used the power of the executive branch to initiate their gun grabs without any bill passed by Congress.

Is claiming that we are not allowed to own a bazooka, RPG or other weapons like those, how you claim to not really know anything about the Constitution or our rights? There are no federal laws that prohibit the ownership of bazookas or RPG's by unlicensed civilians.

All it takes is to submit the ATF form 4 to the ATF and pay the $200 transfer tax and you can buy one of these items from an FFL/SOT or an unlicensed owner, provided they live in your state and the state allows it. Read about it here; https://www.atf.gov/firearms/docs/guide/federal-firearms-regulations-reference-guide-2014-edition-atf-p-53004

Your stupid claim that "people really shouldn't have things like that" is typical democrat anti-gun rhetoric. That is typical of the MAGA who support Trump's anti-gun agenda. Back in 2018 I was shocked to see how thoroughly the MAGA embraced democrat anti-gun ideals, but it is no surprise anymore, at all.

Your willful ignorance of our civil rights is not some badge of honor; it shouldn't be anyway. But RINO's like you seem to think it is and attack anyone who actually cares about their civil rights.

Trump has more planned for us in the future. It is not pretty at all.

Blah blah blah. AGAIN! Trump was light years ahead of Harris as a choice and we only had them to choose from.

AGAIN! Who did you vote for?

reply

Again! Why do you think acting like you don't know a damn thing about gun control law, does not make you look like an idiot?

It is obvious to the most casual observer that you lack the intelligence to make an informed decision on any ballot. Why go to such great lengths on a public forum to prove how simple you are?

I voted for the libertarian candidate for president. WA is very blue, with 58% of votes going to Harris.

reply

You wasted your vote.

reply

No shit sherlock.

Why are you so blaise about your civil rights? I think it is because you lack the backbone to actually stand up for them.

reply

You're completely lost and I'd bet you voted for Harris.

reply

Why are you usually so evasive and change the subject to avoid a direct answer? It is like you're one of the lost boys.

reply

Facts are facts, leftist. Harris was WAY worse on civil rights. so I voted for the one who sucks less. Sorry you're butt hurt that Harris lost.

reply

What did Harris do for or against our civil rights that you do not approve of? Harris never had a gun grab; but Trump grabbed guns in 2018.

Yes, Harris wanted an AWB and other stuff, but then Trump wanted even worse; surely you are aware of Trump's desire to grab guns without due process?

What actions did Harris actually take, that impacted our civil rights?

reply

Quit plating dumb, leftist. I have no more use for you.

reply

You're the one playing dumb. I'm asking very simple questions of you and your only response is to insult me.

Why are you claiming that it is the leftists that are the pro-gun people now?

reply

Is pretending to be completely ignorant of Trump's assaults on our civil rights, your super power? If it is, then it is very lame.

Is Trump's kind of dystopia the kind of country you really want to live in? https://www.npr.org/2024/10/22/nx-s1-5161480/trump-media-threats-abc-cbs-60-minutes-journalists How long until Trump comes after you, your friends and your family for saying the wrong thing?

reply

Judge blocks Biden administration's rule to expand overtime pay for millions
https://www.npr.org/2024/11/15/nx-s1-5193354/overtime-pay-rule-biden-administration

The Labor Department's now-scuttled rule would have marked the biggest increase to that cap in decades. Employers were required pay overtime to salaried workers who make less than $43,888 a year in certain executive, administrative and professional roles as of July 1 — and that was set to rise to $58,656 next year.

The Labor Department estimated that an additional 4 million lower-paid salary workers would become eligible for overtime protections in the first year under the new rule. An additional 292,900 higher-compensated workers were also expected to get overtime entitlements through separate threshold increases.

But yeah, Trump is working to ensure Americans are still underpaid.

reply

Of course it was a Texas judge... Just another instance of the Right obstructing everything the Left does. Le sigh...

I call bullshit. Not even Trumps government could be that dumb

reply

Trump's government had a gun grab in 2018, Trump called for gun confiscation without due process and wants to raise the age to buy firearms. Yes, Trump is so very much that dumb.

Trump's gun confiscation plan without due process.

reply

You’re spreading fear and conspiracy theories. You need to be feeling love and joy like Kamala told you to. seek help for your TDS and go find a safe space you loser.

reply

Repeating and opposing what a doofus like RFK Jr. says is not the same as spreading a CT.

reply

You are spreading conspiracy theories and you are undermining democracy. What happened to “love” and “joy”? Or is it you people didn’t actually mean it?

Loser.

reply

What is his rationale for wanting this?

Most people, even if wrong, have what they think is a positive reason for their plans.

reply

RFK Jr. like many others with the opportunity to do so, wants to force his views on others and when in a position to do so, he will.

reply

That's not a positive explanation.

Dentists want to force their views about dental health as well.

Nothing wrong with that.

reply

What would you think about a dentist who wanted to stop all advances in dentistry in the USA and had the authority to make it happen? That is what Kennedy wants to do with certain medical care. There is something very wrong with that.

reply

That's not what he said, so you have a fantasy about him with no factual information.

reply

RFK Jr. said in his video, https://x.com/58bugeye/status/1857480985304277469

We're going to give drug development and infectious disease a break, a break, a little break, a little bit of a break, for about eight years. And we're going to study chronic disease.

That is what he said. Was the video a hoax?

reply

Why do you think he said that, is the question.

Did you ever listen to a drug commercial?

Do you follow the side effects of various popular drugs over the years?

I work in psychology and many psych meds correlate to the development of dementia later in the life of the user.

ADHD stimulant meds can stunt the growth of children because they cause the child to burn through calories that would help them grow. That's called medication induced anorexia.

Years ago there was a fat-loss drug called Fenfen that caused heart mutations and killed people.

The list goes on.

Since drugs are a business and not a public health product companies are quick to market things and if there are horrible or long term side effects, you can't entirely prove it, so there's little liability.

So, there's logic to what he says. It doesn't mean you have to agree with it but it's not the hysterical proposition you are making it out to be.

reply

Stopping all drug development for eight years is a hysterical proposition.

reply

Not if many drugs have negative side effects.

They aren't "drugs" in that case.

Like many people, you are reacting to words you don't understand.

reply

Leftist lies. Ignore them.

reply

I cant find the full video any where. Why did they immediately cut the video right after he said that? He wasnt done speaking.
