Trump has just destroyed the US beef industry. No country in their right mind is going to import US beef. After Trump cut funding for Screwworm monitoring programs, the dangerous flesh-eating parasite has been found in US cattle for the first time since 1966.

I am a lot surprised that X is getting out of the people mover business. The Falcon 9 has proven to be reliable, but I think their business reliability is not. Putting all their 🥚🪺on that flying silo is not a good idea.

Michael and Barbara Shetterly lost their 23-year-old son Matthew to an overdose in 2014. His heart was donated to Erv Basdon. Two years later, they met him and listened through a stethoscope as their son’s heart continued beating inside another man. ❤️‍🩹 🥹😭

re-upping this because we've reached another tentative equilibrium in which Saudis have been able to ramp up exports, and oil and gasoline both have come back down a bit off their highs. But with Trump formally rejecting Iranian deal, look for Iran to start using other methods to apply pressure
