Site still under construction - but this is one of the valuable views I can share with you today. Stocks with most buys/increases by 50+ Biotech funds. Surprised to see $CMPS in second place. Researching and likely buying it Monday!

The court recently questioned whether Trump and the IRS he oversees were adverse enough parties to allow his lawsuit to proceed. So Trump is scheming to settle the case and create a $1.7 billion slush fund to pay his allies. Not ok. Not allowed. forbes.com/sites/alisondu…

Southern Lebanon now looks like Gaza. Israel is committing genocide, again, because it wasn’t stopped the first time.

Scoop: Democratic think tank @SearchlightInst is pushing the party to embrace a new idea: Free primary care for all Americans. The group wants Dems to rethink their approach to health care and break out of the M4A vs ACA rut. They’re unimpressed with CAP’s proposal and warn that Dems need to have a vision beyond opposing Trump and restoring expired subsidies. “This is still our best issue, but we have not been on offense in a way that’s capturing people’s imaginations and getting them excited,” says @AJentleson. “We don’t need to be on defense or just advocating for incremental reforms.” Story w/ @BerkeleyJr: nbcnews.com/politics/polit…

Someone who was reckless enough to own a $2.5 million home without insuring it sure as fuck isn't going to solve homelessness or any other problem. Los Angeles... don't fuck this up.

I've been seeing posts about med school applicants which abuse statistics to make claims that Black medical students are overrepresented compared to other applicants. Here's the actual data that I put together from the 2025-2026 application cycle. You're being lied to by racists

Billionaire Kevin O’Leary says the US has to build these massive data centers to compete with China but it is a big lie. The US already has 5,381 data centers which is 12 times more than China’s 449. In fact, the US has more data centers than nearly every other nation combined.

In Jerusalem, nuns have to be escorted by members of the volunteer group Standing Together to protect them against Israeli settlers. Yes, nuns need protection against Israeli settlers...

In addition, in those four Yale medical school classes, legacy admissions (which grant preferential treatment to the children of alumni) are estimated to be roughly 11–12% of the cohort (approx. 45–50 students). This group is predominantly White and highly affluent, with 34% hailing from the top 1% of income earners. The reason these conversations— which are supposedly about bringing back MERIT-based admissions—never bother about legacy admissions, which inherently function as a form of AFFIRMATIVE action for the ultra affluent, is because the debate is less about safeguarding an objective standard of merit and more about maintaining existing racial and class hierarchies.

Yale School of Medicine Has a total of 553 students across All four classes. Total Black students: 44. That’s ~10 per class. Total Asian students: 157. That’s ~40 per class. There are nearly as many Asian students PER CLASS as there are Black students in the entire school. Black: 14% of America. Only 7% of Yale Med Asian: 7% of America. 28% of Yale Med. Who exactly is getting discriminated against here ? aamc.org/media/6131/dow…

Hey @grok Jews are 2% of the US and 0.2% of the world. Yet they hold 66% of Trump cabinet, 75% of Ivy League presidents, 90% of Hollywood CEOs, 83% of top tech CEOs, 75% of NBA owners, 100% of BlackRock execs, and most of the Fed, porn industry, and ad agencies. Am I right?

David Letterman tells Stephen Colbert, "I will say, and I have every right to be pissed off so I will be pissed off a little bit—because this theater, you folks wouldn’t be in this theater if it weren't for me and Stephen wouldn't be here if it weren't for me and we rebuilt this theater and then Stephen came and I look at this—it's like the Bellagio, but listen, what is wrong here?" and then says "As we all understand you can take a man's show but you can't take a man's voice, so that's the good news."

At Yale Medical School, a black applicant is 29 times more likely to be invited to interview than an Asian with equally strong academics.   Today, @CivilRights told Yale that its use of race in admissions is ILLEGAL—and that @TheJusticeDept will step in to enforce Title VI. justice.gov/opa/pr/justice…

78 years ago, 800,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes. Britain made it possible. Today, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Britain made it possible. 78 years of the Nakba - and 78 years of British complicity in crimes against the Palestinian people.

Tina Peters violated a restraining order. She broke the public's trust. Caused $800,000 in damage. Assaulted a police officer. Lied throughout her trial. Put democracy at risk, for personal gain, and never showed true remorse. This is a disgraceful act by Jared Polis.
Kaitlan Collins@kaitlancollins

Tina Peters, the Republican former election clerk imprisoned for crimes related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election, will receive clemency from Colorado’s Democratic Gov. Jared Polis and soon be released from custody, Polis exclusively told CNN. cnn.com/2026/05/15/pol…

Why does capitalism need so many subsidies?
Hedgie@HedgieMarkets

🦔Meta's $10 billion Hyperion data center in Richland Parish, Louisiana, will receive $3.3 billion in state and local tax breaks over 20 years, enough to fund the state's entire police budget for more than seven years. The deal exempts Meta from sales and use taxes on roughly $35 billion in GPUs. Louisiana is one of 36 states offering tax breaks for data centers, with Virginia foregoing $1.9 billion annually, Georgia $2.6 billion, and Texas jumping from $150 million to over $1 billion in a single year. Only 11 of those 36 states disclose which companies receive the breaks. Local opposition blocked 48 data center projects worth $156 billion in 2025. My Take Louisiana taxpayers are subsidizing Meta's GPU purchases at a rate exceeding what the state spends on most of its public services, and Meta is spending $135 billion on capex this year. The company does not need help getting off the ground. The justification comes down to 500 operational jobs once construction ends, which does not pencil out in any honest accounting of public investment return. The race keeps happening because states are competing against each other, and the only beneficiaries are the hyperscalers playing them off. 25 of the 36 states giving away billions refuse to disclose which companies are receiving the breaks, which removes the accountability that would normally check this kind of arrangement. Good Jobs First says the $3.3 billion estimate likely understates the true subsidy because nobody outside the deal actually knows what got promised in the contract. Local opposition blocking $156 billion in projects last year is the only mechanism currently slowing the race, and the disparity between what hyperscalers are getting and what communities receive in return is wide enough that a reckoning on these deals is coming. The only question is whether it arrives before the next 3,000 data centers get built or after. Hedgie🤗

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗨𝗔𝗟 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗟. A Palestinian farmer working his field in the occupied West Bank refused to leave for an armed Israeli settler. So the settler took him hostage, blindfolded and humiliated him while IDF soldiers stood guard protecting the abuser.
