More context from Grok: •The Hadith claim is accurate: Sahih al-Bukhari 5686 records the Prophet Muhammad recommending camel milk and urine as medicine for ill travelers whose bodies recovered after use. •Videos of people consuming camel urine as a remedy do appear on X, including the one attached to this post showing a woman reluctantly trying bottled camel urine and describing its strong farm-like smell and salty, disgusting taste. •Some preclinical lab studies report potential antimicrobial, anti-cancer, and protective effects from camel urine compounds, but WHO states it lacks scientific evidence as medicine and carries infection risks like brucellosis; the post’s Turkish shop query is satirical.

@TheDaddyTwins And most good dentists won't accept Delta Dental. At best, they will file it for you but you have to pay them day of services.

Delta Dental CEO Laura Czelada under fire for her $48 million dollar salary in 4 years time. She’s running a nonprofit 501c3 getting paid $15 million dollars a year for a company that processes 95% of all claims by computer. No real person even looks at your claim. How can she justify this salary? No increase in dental pay for doctors in 15 years! Should nonprofit organizations pay their leaders $15 million a year?

@Denrael @TheDaddyTwins Dentist reimbursement growth (within reason) and patient outcomes should include rates not skyrocketing. The nonprofit model needs to be reformed thoughtfully:

@TheDaddyTwins Everyone in finance knows this is how it’s done. Watch the profits, forecast end of year, mid year adjust employment contracts & they stay non-profit often upside down financially giving them more grants. The money has to go somewhere to show no profits. They all do it!

Delta Dental's former CEO Laura Czelada pulled in roughly **$48 million** over just 4 years at a so-called nonprofit. Her compensation jumped from the $2-4.5M range into the $11M–$15M+ per year territory, all while the organization bragged that **95%+ of insurance claims** are processed automatically by computer with little to no human review. I'm not against anyone earning an extremely high salary — if what they're doing or creating truly warrants it. Jeff Bezos built Amazon from the ground up; without him that empire probably doesn't exist. Steve Jobs (with Wozniak) revived and redefined Apple. Lee Iacocca brought Chrysler back from the brink of death. Those kinds of value creation deserve serious rewards. But this situation? I don't see it. This looks like another case where the train has run completely amok and the system is fundamentally broken. Delta Dental operates as a nonprofit (often under 501(c)(4) social welfare structures in states like Michigan). No shareholders taking dividends. The whole point of the tax-exempt status is that surpluses should go back into the mission: better dentist reimbursements, lower premiums for families and businesses, stronger reserves, or community programs to improve oral health. Instead, dentist associations report stagnant or even cut reimbursement rates (some as much as 30% post-2008) with minimal inflation adjustments for years. Patients deal with outdated benefit caps and claim hassles. Automation created major efficiencies — that money should have flowed to actual care or lower costs. Where did the windfall go? Checks and balances exist mostly on paper: - Boards approve pay packages, often with outside consultants. - IRS Form 990s make compensation public. - State regulators and dentist groups try to push back through negotiations, advocacy, and lawsuits alleging suppressed rates and anti-competitive behavior. The problem is power is badly lopsided. Delta's market dominance means dentists risk losing patients if they drop the network. Lawsuits drag on for years. IRS "reasonable compensation" standards are loose when they benchmark against other big insurers. The result is a nonprofit that acts like a for-profit in disguise — enjoying tax advantages while executive pay soars detached from frontline improvements. Premium dollars from hardworking families and employers should support actual dental care, not massive executive windfalls that don't clearly tie back to proportional benefits for providers or consumers. This isn't unique to Delta, but it's a symptom of bigger problems in "nonprofit" health insurance hybrids. We need real accountability — bottom-up, per constitutional principles. Stronger transparency rules, genuine market discipline for these organizations, and actual leverage for dentists and patients. The current setup protects inefficiency and excess instead of rewarding real value. What do you think? Should organizations processing claims under nonprofit status face tighter executive pay caps directly tied to dentist reimbursement growth and patient outcomes?

Only the people within this community can get to them. Those top people are arrogant and don’t want a woman telling them what to do. I still have to point out to everyone that these people are lying to get power. No one with a thinking brain wants to be ruled by people as stupid as these Islamists. The most backwards retarded people ever. 🤦🏻‍♀️

DISGUSTING: Dr. Nawaf Al-Takrouri, head of the Palestinian Scholars Abroad Association: "I don't think a reasonable Muslim can see the fantastic gains all over the world, and still say negative things about [Oct 7th] Al-Aqsa Flood" and that Gaza's destruction is "a natural price for the liberation of Al-Aqsa" — one that "may require 1 million martyrs across the Muslim world." These disgusting people do not see the blood of our children in Gaza as anything more than a tool for their fantasy of so-called liberation. This is a death cult. 70,000 dead is not enough for them. 150,000 is not enough. They want millions of deaths — and they speak about Gaza's destruction and the killing of our people with excitement. Absolutely vile.

🧵 THREAD: The CAIR–Muslim Brotherhood–Hamas Pipeline They Don't Want You to See This thread has been a long time coming. Let's start with a simple fact: In its 1988 charter, Hamas openly declares itself the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. So here's the question: 🇺🇸 Why hasn't the U.S. designated the Muslim Brotherhood as a Foreign Terrorist Organization? Seems obvious, right? Here’s my answer 👇 If the Muslim Brotherhood is formally labeled a terror group... ➡️ Then CAIR, founded by leaders from the Brotherhood's U.S. network, gets implicated too. And if CAIR gets implicated… ➡️ Then so do a lot of politicians. 📍And that’s the line no one in D.C. wants to cross. So instead, the Brotherhood stays "undesignated." CAIR keeps the civil rights label and keeps its tax advantaged nonprofit status. And the public is left in the dark. Patience as I pull the receipts.

🇩🇰🇵🇸 Palestinian migrants in Denmark are overrepresented in almost every crime category. Data from Statistics Denmark reveal that between 2008 and 2024, Palestinian men ranked among the top five groups in nearly every category. Palestinians have the highest index for blackmail in Denmark, 27 times above the Danish baseline. The rest of crime categories are as follows: Burglary: Highest overall index at 10 times the native Danish baseline. Theft: Highest overall index at 8 times the native Danish baseline. Fraud: Second-highest index at 8x. Grievous Assault: Second-highest index at 12x. Assault Against a Public Servant: Second-highest index at 11x. Attempted H*micide: Third-highest index at 20x. R*pe, etc.: Third-highest index at 12x. Robbery: Third-highest index at 16x. Shoplifting: Fourth highest index at 6x.

Most people have no idea about the real history of Al-Aqsa Mosque, because they’ve only been fed the Islamic Palestinian propaganda version of events. They believe that Al-Aqsa has always been Islam’s third holiest site, that it has belonged to Muslims since the dawn of time, and that Israel is the oppressor for merely existing near it. None of that is true. The Temple Mount in Jerusalem was the holiest site in Judaism for over a thousand years before Islam even appeared in history. It housed the First and Second Jewish Temples, the center of Jewish worship and pilgrimage. When the Romans destroyed the Second Temple in 70 AD, they built pagan shrines over it, but its Jewish identity never disappeared. In the 7th century Islam emerges and expands through conquest, and begins hijacking Jewish and Christian sites, prophets, and narratives. At first, Jerusalem had no major significance in Islam. Muhammad never set foot there. There was no mosque. There was no pilgrimage. There was no Islamic history tied to the city. But that changed during the brutal power struggle between Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan and Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr. By the late 7th century, Islam was deeply divided. Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr controlled Mecca and Medina, the two holiest cities in Islam. And Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan, the Umayyad Caliph, controlled the Levant. But Abd al-Malik had a problem, he didn’t want the people of the Levant traveling to Mecca for pilgrimage, because that would give power to his rival. Abd al-Malik declared the Temple Mount as Alaqsa mosque that was mentioned in the quran, and he made it an alternative place of pilgrimage. He ordered the construction of the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque to divert attention from Mecca. And just like that, Islam manufactured a holy site for political gain. The real Masjid Al-Aqsa referred to in the Quran was not in Jerusalem, it was between Mecca and Ta’if. There was no mosque in Jerusalem at the time. There was no Islamic presence there. Yet, centuries later, after Islam had conquered the city, the Islamic narrative retroactively applied this Quranic verse to Jerusalem, again, for political convenience. If Israel wanted to act like Islamic conquerors, it could have easily done to Al-Aqsa what Turkey did to the Hagia Sophia. It could have converted the mosque into the Third Temple, banned Muslim prayer on the site, erased any trace of Islamic history, as Muslims did to Christian and Jewish sites throughout history. But Israel didn’t do that. Israel allows Muslims to pray there freely. Israel protects Al-Aqsa, even as it is used to spread anti-Semitic propaganda and incite violence. Yet, despite this, the world condemns Israel for merely existing in its own capital.
