🚨 BATTLE OF THE FAT DRUGS:

The maker of Ozempic just launched 14 lawsuits to crush cheaper alternatives.

Sales are down. Competition is up. And now Big Pharma is trying to sue its way back to dominance.

Here’s what they’re not telling you. 🧵 2/ Novo Nordisk, maker of Ozempic and Wegovy, is suing U.S. companies for selling “fake” or compounded versions of its weight-loss drugs.

Their claim?
These meds are “unsafe and unapproved.”

But they were FDA-permitted just months ago—during shortages.

🚨 BREAKING: Democrat NYC mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani wants cops to STOP responding to Muslim-perpetrated crimes.

He’s proposing social workers—not police—handle antisemitic attacks and domestic violence.

This isn’t reform. It's refusing protection to Jews. 🧵 2/ Mamdani’s plan? A $1.1 BILLION “Department of Community Safety” that would:

❌ Replace NYPD with activists
❌ Use “violence interrupters” for violent crimes
❌ Divert police from domestic violence calls

Guess which crimes this conveniently targets?

🚨 BREAKING: Trump just announced a 100% tariff on foreign semiconductors.

Build in America—you're exempt.
Build overseas—you pay.

Just hours later, Apple announced $100 BILLION in new U.S. investment, on top of its already announced $500 billion.

Here's the scoop. 🧵 2/ Trump: “We’ll be putting a tariff of approximately 100% on chips and semiconductors.”

“But if you’re building in the U.S., there’s no charge—even if you’re not producing yet.”

No more free ride.
No more outsourcing without consequence.

But rewards for coming home.

🚨 BREAKING: Putin just asked for a summit with Trump.

Why? Because Trump’s pressure is working.

The White House confirmed the Kremlin wants direct talks—after a 3-hour meeting with Trump’s envoy.

Here’s what you’re not being told. 🧵 2/ Trump sent special envoy Steve Witkoff to Moscow.
He met with Putin for over 3 hours.

Trump called it:

“Highly productive.”
“Great progress was made.”

Trump has set an August 8 deadline -- Friday -- for Russia to get serious about a peace deal.

It's working.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump and Elon Musk just called for Washington, D.C. to be federalized.

Why?

Because a gang of thugs brutally beat a 19-year-old who stepped in to rescue a woman they were attacking.

He saved her. He nearly died. And now things are escalating fast. 🧵 2/ The hero: Edward Coristine, a.k.a. “Big Balls” — a young tech genius handpicked by Elon Musk to help fix government.

He saw a woman being attacked in D.C.
He ran to help.
He was beaten nearly to death by a savage mob.

Because D.C. is out of control.

🚨 BREAKING: A major win for election integrity.

A U.S. appeals court just unanimously upheld Texas’s voter ID law for mail-in ballots.

This ruling could set the tone for voter ID laws across America. Here’s why it matters: 🧵 2/ The 5th Circuit ruled 3–0 that Texas can require voters to provide an ID when applying for AND submitting mail-in ballots.

Judge James Ho was blunt:

“The ID number requirement is obviously designed to confirm that each mail-in ballot voter is precisely who he claims he is.”

🚨BREAKING: Trump’s NASA just announced plans to build a nuclear power plant on the Moon.

Why?

Because we’re in a space race with Communist China—and this time, we’re not coming home.

We're going to the Moon.
We’re staying.

And we’re going to have to power it. 🧵 2/ Here’s the big news:

✅ The U.S. will build a nuclear reactor on the Moon.
✅ Solar isn’t enough.
✅ We’re done studying. Trump said GO.
✅ China is racing to beat us.
✅ And America is preparing to plant the flag—for good.

🚨BREAKING: Trump’s ICE is hiring 10,000 agents.

💰$50,000 signing bonuses
🎓Student loan forgiveness
🪖Military-level budget
👊 And the mission? Deport 20 million illegals aliens.

Thanks to Trump, ICE now has a bigger budget than the entire Russian military.

THREAD 🧵 2/ ICE just launched its “Defend the Homeland” recruitment drive.

They’re hiring 10,000 new officers, agents, and lawyers.

You don’t even need a college degree for many roles—and the starting bonus is $50,000.

They want the best. And they’re paying for it.

🚨 RUSSIA AND CHINA ARE ABOUT TO ANNEX… ANTARCTICA?! 🚨

They just (illegally) found half a trillion barrels of oil beneath the ice.

They're violating treaties.

And they're showing the world what's coming next—on the Moon.

You need to understand what's happening 🧵 2/ In early 2025, Russia announced a MASSIVE oil discovery in Antarctica:

📍 511 BILLION barrels—more than any known oilfield on Earth.

There’s just one problem:

Exploring for oil there is ILLEGAL under the 1959 Antarctic Treaty.

Russia did it anyway.

🚨 DEMS ARE PANICKING 🚨

Why? Because Texas just nuked their racially gerrymandered districts—and Democrats have nowhere left to gerrymander.

They already rigged their maps years ago.

Now the GOP is fighting back.

Let’s talk about the states they want you to ignore. 🧵 2/ 🔵 Blue states with ZERO Republican House seats:

– Massachusetts
– Rhode Island
– Vermont
– New Hampshire
– Hawaii
– New Mexico
– Connecticut
– Delaware

🔵 Blue states with just ONE GOP seat:

– Maryland
– Oregon
– Maine

This is what “Our Democracy” looks like to them?

🧵Mexico’s Drug Cartels Bedevil Sheinbaum’s Dealmaking With Trump

The U.S. and Mexico aim to reach security agreement in coming days, Mexican president says. But domestic troubles are making that a lot harder.

That's part of why Trump extended her deadline.

Here's the scoop. 2/ A Chinese cartel boss escaped house arrest in Mexico—and the judge who let him go is under fire.

Trump is pressuring Mexico to act.

Tariffs are on the table.

And U.S. military options are back in play.

🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ just launched a GRAND JURY investigation into the Russiagate hoax.🚨🚨🚨

You wanted arrests? This is how you get arrests.

Brennan. Clapper. Comey. Strzok. Page. Maybe even Clinton and Obama.

Here’s what just happened—and what it could mean 🧵 2/ Attorney General Pam Bondi has officially greenlit criminal proceedings based on DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s referral.

She assigned a federal prosecutor to present evidence to a grand jury.

This isn’t talk. This is action precedent to indictments & arrests.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ just eliminated a 44-year-old race-based hiring decree.

For four decades, this racist mandate rigged federal hiring against merit and in favor of race discrimination.

Today, it’s DEAD.

This is a turning point. Here’s what it means 🧵 2/ In 1979, a lawsuit claimed that the federal hiring test—PACE—was racist.

So the Carter DOJ caved.

The U.S. government replaced merit-based exams with “Outstanding Scholar” and “Bilingual/Bicultural” racial preference hiring programs.

DEI's prototype was born.

🚨 BREAKING: While the world watches Ukraine and Taiwan, a new great power is quietly rising—and few are ready for what comes next.

Turkey is on the move. And thanks to war, the weakness of its neighbors, and a once-in-a-century opportunity…

This is Turkey’s moment. 🧵 2/ In The Next 100 Years, the great @George_Friedman predicted the surprise rise of 3 powers:

🇯🇵 Japan
🇵🇱 Poland
🇹🇷 Turkey

All three are surging.

But only one sits at the crossroads of Europe, the Middle East, & the Mediterranean—ready to fill the void as old powers fall.

🚨 BREAKING: Kremlin Backs Off HARD on Nuclear Threats

"Hey guys, we didn't really mean it, you know..."

Here’s why Trump’s show of force worked—and what it means for Ukraine, China, and world peace. 🧵 2/ Days ago, former Russian President Medvedev claiming Russia’s nuclear “Dead Hand” would launch nukes if the Kremlin fell.

It was a stupid thing to say. Dead Hand only works if we nuke them. But it spooked people who don't know.

Trump wasn't spooked.

BREAKING: President Trump just hit Switzerland with a 39% tariff.

The Swiss are panicking. Their government is holding emergency meetings. CEOs are begging for mercy.

Here’s why it matters—and why it’s working. 🧵 2/ The tariffs were no accident.

Switzerland ran a $38.5 billion trade surplus with the U.S. last year. That’s more than Mexico!

Trump made it clear: if you want free access to America’s market, you don’t get to take and never give.

🚨 BREAKING: Tesla Just Handed @ElonMusk a Much-Deserved $29 BILLION Pay Package

The board just made it official:

✅ 96 million shares
✅ $29 billion value
✅ Activist Democrat judge SMACKED DOWN

Here’s what just happened — and why it matters:

🧵 @elonmusk 2/ Elon just got a $29 billion stock award from Tesla’s board — a direct response to a partisan judge voiding his previous pay.

Elon bet the company he could hit insanely high goals over 5 yrs. Everyone laughed. The shareholders took the bet.

He won. It was time to pay up.

🚨 TRUMP JUST WENT NUCLEAR ON THE GREEN NEW DEAL.

The EPA is moving to repeal the legal foundation of climate regulation itself.

$1 TRILLION in green tyranny—GONE.

Lee Zeldin calls it the “largest deregulatory action in American history.”

Here’s what it means 🧵 2/ In 2009, Obama’s EPA declared carbon dioxide a "threat to public health"—their so-called “Endangerment Findings.”

That opened the floodgates for 16 YEARS of climate regulations on cars, energy, and industry.

The science was vague. But the power grab wasn’t.

🔥 America’s Next Power Crisis Is Already Here

AI, crypto, and data centers are about to blow up U.S. electricity demand—and the grid isn’t ready.

Retail electricity use is set to surge 175% above normal in just two years.

This is a warning—and an opportunity.
🧵 2/ The epicenters of this boom?

🔌 Texas (ERCOT)
🔌 13 mid-Atlantic states + D.C. (PJM)

Together, they serve nearly 150 million Americans.

And they’re about to be flooded with massive new energy demands—from Musk, OpenAI, et al.

But don't blame them: YOU'RE the consumer!

🔥 The Senate Just Began Its August Recess

Republicans passed the biggest spending reform in a generation

If they're smart, now they’ll:

👉 Rally the country around a balanced budget.
👉 Campaign on the Trump agenda's success.
👉 Start paying off the debt

🧵 2/ While Democrats fled DC with nothing to show…

Republicans passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act—a historic Trump reform to create economic growth & reduce waste, fraud, taxes, and deficits.

Now they get a huge messaging opportunity.

🚨 The Hydrogen Future Is Just Out of Reach...For Now

It’s clean. It’s abundant. It’s promising.

But it’s nowhere close to ready.

Sadly, hydrogen won’t save the planet—or Europe—anytime soon.

Here’s why. 🧵 2/ Hydrogen is the lightest element in the universe.

It’s everywhere.
It emits nothing but water when burned.
It powers rockets—and maybe one day, trucks and trains.

So why isn’t it powering the whole world NOW?

Answer: because physics and economics still matter.
