Journo: “I am going to expose violent Right Wingers!”
(Gets beaten by Far Left Buddies)

The U.S. set another record for drug overdose deaths last year with more than 107,000 fatalities, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated Wednesday.

The provisional 2021 total represents a 15% jump from the previous record in 2020, and means there is roughly one overdose death in the country every 5 minutes.

While drugs like opioid painkillers, other opioids and heroin cause many deaths, fentanyl is the leading killer, causing 71,000 deaths last year, which was a 23% jump from the year before.

Dr. Nora Volkow, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, called the latest numbers “truly staggering.”

Trespass the Capitol Building, raise your concern at a Parents-Teachers meeting and you become an Domestic Terrorist and a danger to the welfare of this nation needing the full powers of the Government to stop you.

Set billions of dollars in propertty and kill people in the process and you just are venting long overdue problems in a “mostly peaceful way” and charges get to be dropped.

Over 100,000 Americans are dead by drugs, but billions of taxpayers dollars were wasted in making sure people were masked to go pee at a public bathroom so they could be safe from a virus with a 98.5% chance of survival.

Crazy pills anyone?

In this day and age, he’d be charged for illegal possession of a firearm and murder.

Because we are now more “enlightened.”

And dear people, if it does not come out of the nipple of a mammal*, it ain’t milk, it is some sort of juice processed with all kinds of chemicals to make it taste like milk.

Update:

Here is a relevant article from the NY Post:

Plant-based milk may be double the price but people are drinking it up

The plant-based market’s biggest drivers, almond milk and soy milk, cost almost double at $4.29 a half-gallon (64-ounces) each, compared to $2.17 for regular dairy milk, according to a price check by FreshDirect. The price tag on oat milk is almost 2.5 times the cost of dairy milk, at $5.29 a half-gallon.

This article is from 2019, but a quick online search shows that while the prices have changed, the ratios have stated the same.

So anyone with a modicum of understanding of business should get why requesting almond, soy, or oat mik would come with an surcharge, the cost of the ingredient is higher.

But that fact is relevant to activist idiots like Cromwell.

On Easter Sunday, a former fellow student paid a teen $20 to punch Kelsey, according to investigators, fracturing his neck and crushing nearly every bone in his face.

“He has four titanium plates in his head and face,” Christi went on explaining a long list of serious injuries her son endured from the punches.

The brutal beating was recorded by another fellow student. In the recording, you can hear laughing as Kelsey falls to the ground. Not only scarring Kelsey physically but emotionally.

“It’s violent and evil and there has to be consequences.”

Brandison Dru Daniel, 20, who police say paid the teen to punch Kelsey, faces conspiracy to commit aggravated assault and criminal responsibility for facilitation of a felony charges out of Wayne County. The juvenile is in juvenile detention.

A detention hearing is being held Wednesday for the juvenile. District Attorney General Brent Copper tells News 2 he is considering filing a motion to have the teen moved to adult court.

I am not holding my breath and expect the culprits will serve nothing else than a misdemeanor charge at the end if they plea guilty.

Nikki “brain” Fried is at it again.

And pray tell how much are Floridians paying in State gas taxes?

A whooping $0.24 cents (rounding up).  And I don’t know in Florida, but here in Tennessee, I saw the price jump overnight 2 days ago by 29 cents.

I am not sure the Governor could override the tax, but even if he could, the price of the frigging gas in Florida would still be over $4.00, you dumb pothead!

Oh yes, please remind me what was the price of gas under Orange Man Mean Tweets?

She needs to stop smoking her pot prescription.

New York (CNN Business)Peloton’s turnaround plan can’t happen fast enough: The at-home fitness company continues to lose money — and it’s quickly running out of cash.
The once-hot company reported a dismal quarterly financial report Tuesday, with sales tumbling 15% from a year ago. Peloton lost $757 million last quarter.
Peloton (PTON) said it had just $879 million in cash in the bank at the end of the quarter, which has left it “thinly capitalized,” CEO Barry McCarthy said. That forced the company to borrow a significant amount of money from Wall Street to keep its operations running.
As people return to gyms, Peloton has been struggling to maintain its electric growth from the early days of the pandemic. Bike and subscription sales have stagnated. The company has too much inventory, and demand is on the decline.

I never liked Peloton. To me it has always been way overpriced, way snobbish and then they started to lock down your machine unless you forcibly paid an extra “safety for the children” fee. The Peloton bike, the standard bearer of the company is on sale for measly $1,195 dropped from $1,495. The full privilege membership at Planet Fitness which allows you to use all the machines anywhere in the world plus spa, sauna and all the crap they have is $700 a year. Or if you are cheap like me and just go for the Basic Fully Paid, you spend $158 the first year and then drop to $79 per year, that comes to a bit over $10 a month the first year and then $6.60 after that and you get to use all the damn equipment 24 hours a day at your local PF.

The expenditure of one Peloton bike equals a 14 year Basic subscription to Planet Fitness and all its machines.

Does not make sense a whole lot, does it?
