@LondonCat5 @CBSMornings The stories being shared and broadcasted about GLP are almsot exclusively with patients taking way too much.
The doses noted by friends using insurance and primary doc were shockingly high.

@NotSure365 @CBSMornings Losing weight has some amazing benefits & if a GLP-1 is the way one wants to go - I have NO issue with that so long as the manufacturer is clearly, directly & openly disclosing the short & long term risks. If you aren't aware of the diabetic retinopathy risks, that's a problem.
English
1 in 8 adults in the U.S. uses a GLP-1 — and those weight loss drugs are already impacting the economy.
Harvard University professor and CBS News contributor Roland Fryer breaks down why economists are predicting the medications could add to America’s GDP and shares some concerns about how diets might be impacted.
English
@VernersViews @Channel4News Yep! The doses and duration providers are giving to patients is WAY too much. Shocked whe I heard what commercial payer/providers were dosing.
English
How many of those who get the jabs are aware that:
"Based on the records of 16 million people, it was found that compared to other weight loss treatments, the fat jabs caused:
• 9.09 times greater risk of pancreatitis
• 4.22 times greater risk of bowel obstruction
• 3.67 times greater risk of gastroparesis (which means you can barely eat because the stomach is constantly full)."
English
More than 1 million more people are to be offered weight loss jabs in England. That’s after they’ve been given the greenlight by the NHS to reduce people’s chance of deadly heart attacks and strokes.
English
@AntiCommieBecca How does an opinion writer write this?
You provided no supporting evidence to your conclusion. Like a simple poll showing 1000s of unfilled jobs because of the collapse (didn’t happen) of H1B programs would have helped.

Remember last year (I think) when all these tech companies were saying they don’t have enough Americans to fill needed positions & so many angry men came out complaining they just needed a shot?
Tech companies were right!
So many young people don’t give two shits about technological advancements, space travel or ANYTHING that doesn’t concern them personally.
It’s just endlessly bitching about all the things they don’t have rather than being grateful for having more than the vast majority of humans who have ever lived!
Why would a tech company hire somebody who doesn’t think technology is cool or important?
This apathy and constant rumination is making Americans more sympathetic to bringing in highly qualified immigrants “replacing” ungrateful, entitled brats!
At some point all the dooming black pill a-holes are gonna regret this path they’ve taken!

@LondonCat5 @CBSMornings I completed diligence with a medical provider and what studies were available.
My A1C, cholesterol, sleep patterns, eating habits, and overall health is also way up. Not likely to die in five years. However, my quality of life is far higher.
Blind? Really?
English
@NotSure365 @CBSMornings Great question. Pull up the insert warnings (w/ no long term trials to track them) & tell me if you had, & gave, "informed consent" to these long-term risks even if you stop taking it. All for getting healthy. Maybe no long term risk. Maybe legally blind in 10 yrs. We don't know.

@CoreyWriting American youth are being brainwashed by short form media propped up by Qatari. Qatari has been doing this for so long. They’ve taken propaganda and made it into political thought.
They’ll be no dividing or breaking up between Israel and the United States.
English
I do think this will eventually cause the breakup between the US and Israel, simply because the young Americans are moving steadily left while Israelis are becoming more conservative.
Israel Elects@israel_elects
Israel’s youngest voters are significantly more right-wing than older cohorts. Ages 18–22: 🔵 Right / center-right: 78% 🟣 Center: 14% 🔴 Left / center-left: 8% Ages 23+: 🔵 Right / center-right: 61% 🟣 Center: 27% 🔴 Left / center-left: 12% via Lazar/Maariv (Mar 30–31)

@art_istek @MatrixMysteries Wait. I tell you you are 100% wrong about inflation and your response is gas prices in Biden?
Gas prices were higher under Biden than Trump right now. An excluding the last five weeks gas prices have been at least a dollar lower than all of Biden‘s administration.
English
@NotSure365 @MatrixMysteries So gas prices are up $1.50 when? Did tariffs help at all? 🤔
English
An American woman went to Cold Stone Creamery.
This tiny ice cream cost her $9.
Inflation is becoming humiliation.
How much more expensive can life in America get?
English
@LondonCat5 @CBSMornings I’m all yours. What’s the consequences of losing 30 pounds dropping your A1c in cholesterol and getting control of your food consumption.
Do you think the person who lost 30 pounds will continue taking GLP for the rest of their life?
English
@CBSMornings This is crazy. If u have 2 or more comorbidities & have a real chance of dying in next 5 yrs, the long-term risks are probably worth it...but if you have 40 year olds out there taking it because they want to lose 30 lbs, I don't think they understand the long-term consequences
English
@art_istek @MatrixMysteries That’s simply not true and you must know that. Inflation started heavily under Biden.
English
@MatrixMysteries FYI: Things had normal prices until Trump became president. Sometimes, he’s acting against national interest, which goes hand in hand with his closeness to Putin and Kim. We’re paying Ukraine and Israel’s wars, which is good for the Kremlin’s oil interests, but bad for America
English
@MatrixMysteries We stopped all fast, casual, and all things like marble stone. The pricing had just gotten absurd. It wasn’t inflation we were seeing it was gouging.
English
@adamscochran It’s just so silly. There was never an intention in the constitution to allow people to drive or fly across a border pop out a baby and make it a citizen.
English
One of the most insane arguments is the idea that your parents status matters.
“Subject to the jurisdiction thereof” applies to the person born.
It does not say your parents must be subject to the jurisdiction.
Even though they would be subject to it, if they were not, the child still could be.
Which is the very reason that the US makes a tax obligation on everyone born in the US, on their lifetime worldwide income.
So the US has, for decades, been arguing they do have birthright jurisdiction to people born in the US (including those born to illegal immigrants) by nature of levying a tax on income those people earn, even if they return to their parents home country.
English
@anthon79380 @Christophe74732 @middle_class_us Fair.
I guess those super popular and trendy cities and metros just aren’t on the docket for young people anymore. Some great towns in the Midwest. Much cheaper homes out there. good luck, sir.
English
@NotSure365 @Christophe74732 @middle_class_us And the median house cost 3x the median income. Now the median house costs 8x the median income
English
Entry level unemployment just hit 13%.
Mortgage rates above 7%.
This is a generation being locked out of every door at the same time.
No job to start. No house to buy. No savings to build.
And the generation before them telling them to work harder.
English
🚨 WOW! Emerson poll just found that Casey DeSantis is LOSING to Democrat Florida governor candidate David Jolly in a hypothetical matchup
🔵 Jolly: 40% (+1)
🔴 DeSantis: 39%
Brutal.
The same poll found Byron Donalds CRUSHING Casey DeSantis in the GOP primary, 44% to 7%

@RobGeorge America is a sucker.
This is an old law that never envisioned people flying across the world, popping out a baby, and getting US citizenship.
EO will stand.

Because America is a better nation?
Clay Travis@ClayTravis
An American citizen’s baby can’t become a Chinese citizen by being born on the soil of China. Can anyone explain why a Chinese citizen’s baby should be able to become an American citizen by being born on the soil here? It’s absolute insanity.
English
@ProjectLiberal Are these children not able to apply to be a citizen? Is there something happening that would not allow this from happening?
English
If you think birthright citizenship is bad, wait until you see what a permanent underclass of stateless American-born children does to this country.
English
@JaneCaro No offense to house wives/husbands but goodness after the kids hit elementary school…
friends wives do not work…. complaining about not being able to afford things. 1 husband is working 50+ hrs. The other is working in another city.
Meanwhile wives just chilling at home.
English
Many women do not want to ‘stay home’. It’s boring, repetitive and you are an unpaid servant. It also predisposes you to poverty if your husband gets bored & dumps you. Also, women have outperformed men in education for a century. Maybe you guys should stay home.
Henry VIII@SussexHenryVIII
My hot take is that young men who cannot afford for their significant other to stay home feel emasculated and it's much easier to insist that women are bitches then it is to actually fix what killed the middle class.

@OrnerRyan @Conservative2TX This is Qatari propaganda infiltration within the young’s social media.
The entire coverage and posters like this one has completely boggled my mind. The only answer is the Psyop on our youth has worked perfectly.

A paper dragon doesn’t destroy an entire airforce and navy while strategically killing 50 key leaders and 15k+ soldiers without ever putting a boot on the ground🤦🏻♂️🤡 yall got some weird ass takes here lmao. No matter how much you try to spin the narrative, this is a military strategic victory. Especially considering everyone including Iran said “they were not Iraq” and could destroy America with ease… America lost 13 troops and 5 jets lmao. That is a total lopsided victory.
English
So let me get this straight.
- Iran keeps the regime.
- Iran keeps missiles.
- Iran keeps uranium.
- Iran gains more leverage over the Strait.
And Trump gets to puff out his chest, yell “victory,” and sprint for the exit.
What exactly did the West win here?
Because from where I’m sitting, this looks less like strength and more like theater. The kind where everyone claps at the end, even though the building is still on fire.
- Russia is watching.
- China is watching.
- North Korea is watching.
And the lesson they are learning is not that America is unstoppable. It is that America talks big, hits something, declares success, and then looks for the nearest door.
That is what a paper dragon looks like.
