“Patient Five” was in his late 50s when a trip to the doctors changed his life. He had diabetes, and he had signed up for a study to see if taking a “statin” – a kind of cholesterol-lowering drug – might help. So far, so normal. But soon after he began the treatment, his wife began to notice a sinister transformation. A previously reasonable man, he became explosively angry and – out of nowhere – developed a tendency for road rage. During one memorable episode, he warned his family to keep away, lest he put them in hospital. -snip- Alarmed,...

Hello management of Walmart. It's time. I've been posting that for quite a while here on Free Republic and have been waiting for a battle to pick and I'm picking it with you Walmart. I have been to four different Walmarts in the area over the past 3 days and noticed you have kept your word and have ceased selling handgun ammo. I am calling on ALL CHL holders to help me in this effort and I rarely do something like this, if ever.

Virginia lawmakers are now considering a state law banning the ownership of certain semi-automatic guns deemed “assault firearms” and limiting the magazine capacity of other firearms in the state — and there are no clauses that would allow existing owners to continue possessing them.

Probably. *** Let’s say the shy Trump voters are worth a five-point swing in favor of Trump compared to the most recent numbers in key states. In a matchup against Joe Biden, Trump would still lose Michigan, lose Pennsylvania, and lose Wisconsin, as well as losing the national popular vote by a slightly larger margin than in 2016. If Biden won those three states, and kept Hillary Clinton’s states, he’s at 278 electoral votes and Trump would be a one-term president. If...

I'm sorry to say this, but Epstein's justified and long-delayed prosecution and inevitable life-sentence, either pragmatic or through judgment, was done with ONE purpose: To hurt Donald Trump. There are several reasons why this is so. 1. This is not a federal indictment, but a STATE indictment, specifically, New York State. As the arresting authority, they have first digs at Trump, even before the feds can weigh in. This is key, because as the arresting authority, they can control the prosecution strategy, the venue, and the narrative. 2. Another huge tell: The actual prosecution unit being assigned is from CORRUPTION,...
