MSNBC brings America its wisdom

Brian Williams is so useless and dumb

https://twitter.com/RealSaavedra/status ... 9734269952 - fuller clip. That's actually worse. Less on Williams than the guest, though Williams is also generally terrible.

Math is hard.

The original poster's tweets are (now?) protected, but I give her credit for adding, "I know, I'm bad at math" to her profile. I'd respect Williams more if he'd do the same.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) called out Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for not taking steps to control the “organized nastiness” of some of his supporters during the presidential campaign.
“It’s not just about me,” Warren said in an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Thursday following her decision to suspend her campaign for the Democratic nomination. “I think that’s a real problem with this online bullying and sort of organized nastiness. … I’m talking about some really ugly stuff that went on.”
While politics has become riddled with such behavior, she said it was a particular problem with Sanders’s supporters. “It is. It just is,” she told Maddow.

She described how his supporters referred to her using a snake emoji and called her a “traitor.”
Sanders has denounced the attacks on Warren and her campaign by those claiming to support him, saying he was “aghast” and “disgusted” by them.
That apparently did not satisfy Warren, who said that Sanders and all candidates “are responsible for the people who claim to be” supporters “and do really threatening and dangerous things,”

“All of us remember 2016, and what we remember is efforts by Russians and others to try to interfere in our elections and divide us up,” said the senator from Vermont. “I’m not saying that’s happening, but it would not shock me.”

President Trump’s re-election campaign filed a libel lawsuit against CNN on Friday for publishing “false and defamatory” statements about seeking Russia’s help in the 2020 election.

"The complaint alleges CNN was aware of the falsity at the time it published them but did so for the intentional purpose of hurting the campaign while misleading its own readers in the process... the campaign filed this lawsuit against CNN and the preceding suits against The New York Times and The Washington Post to hold the publishers accountable for their reckless false reporting and also to establish the truth,” Senior Legal Adviser to Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. Jenna Ellis told Fox News.

The complaint said that CNN was well aware the statements were false “because there was an extensive record of statements from the Campaign and the administration expressly disavowing any intention to seek Russian assistance” but promoted the claim anyway.

I'd be interested in supporting evidence for that.

Here are the top drug exporting countries. The top 4 and 8 of the top 10 are in Europe.

I know the US has almost half of the world's drug market, so they do spend a ton of money on R&D, but I also remember that Switzerland and Sweden are among the most innovative with this stuff. I remember reading about it 5 years or so ago. Switzerland was ranked #1 in innovation in the report I saw. And Sweden is up there. Anyway, my point was that it's not just the US driving innovation. We innovate because we spend money on it and we spend money on it because we use a lot of drugs, like A LOT of drugs. And Switzerland and Sweden spend money on it because they like selling drugs to us.
