Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday, and it has spread to his bones.
“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said.
Having witnessed a friend die of cancer, at least from what I could tell my friend wasn't suffering too much because she was hopped up on so many opiods, all she wanted to do was get me to bring her as many flavours of Pringles as possible and setup her computer so she could binge watch Star Trek:TNG and The Office until she had to go to hospice, then once you're in the hospital she was basically in a coma for a week until she was dead. RIP Jan.

Why can’t another world leader get cancer instead?

he's banning harvard from accepting foreign students wtf.
“can no longer enroll foreign students and existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status.”
thank goodness a judge is blocking him... we'll see what is true.
A federal judge blocked Donald Trump’s latest escalation against immigration on Thursday, a ruling that came just hours after the Department of Homeland Security announced that it would revoke Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students.
Trump's now threatening 25% tariffs on iPhones if Apple doesn't make them in the US. Making iPhones in the US is basically impossible - the supply chain doesn't exist nor do qualified workers. It would probably take a decade before it was possible and the price on iPhones would double or triple.
Humanity was poisoned on a mass scale by the "vaccine" with 3 hours of under-oath testamony and the most people can care about it here is a single fail.
I certainly hope journalists and other doctors are reviewing the statements by the people under oath, because if they are lying about how toxic the "vaccines" were, and if they were actually safe and effective, then lying under oath should have consequences.

President Donald Trump on Friday threatened 25% tariffs on Apple unless the company shifts iPhonemanufacturing to the United States, saying he disapproves of the company's decision to move part of its supply chain to India.

If they made them in the US Apple would have to raise it's prices 90%, obviously not happening so Americans can just pay more tax....I mean tariffs and a higher cost for their apple products.
He'll tell his base that Apple will be paying the Tariffs, they'll eat it up well screaming Winning!

Customers are going to scream at the carriers instead like they always do.
Harvard is also suing the Trump administration for trying to stop them from enrolling international students. That makes it Harvard's second lawsuit to the Trump adminstration after the $400M+ funding cut lawsuit.
I really gotta hand it to Harvard for standing up to the Orange Bully.

One problem with Trump is -- he just shoots from the hip first, and deal with whatever fallout later. More often than not, people are not in the position to hunker down, resist, and pushback. (Just look at how Columbia University and other schools have already caved, and I would never call them poor by any stretch of imagination.) It takes a LOT of resources of all kinds to push back the way Harvard and VoA staff did. And then Trump just gets away with it even when his EO isn't legal or constitutional.

The new tariff on iPhones apparently came about due to Tim Cook not going with Trump on his trip to the Middle East. The corruption is wild.
Quote:
You’ve probably seen a few photos from Trump’s CEO-studded tour of the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.
From Nvidia’s Jensen Huang to OpenAI’s Sam Altman, the president’s entourage read like a Silicon Valley star lineup. But one high-profile exec was missing: Apple CEO Tim Cook, who had been invited but declined. And according to the Times, that decision stuck with Trump throughout the trip.
During a speech in Riyadh, for instance, the president praised Huang for showing up, then took a shot: “Tim Cook isn’t here, but you are.” Later, in Qatar, he told attendees he had “a little problem with Tim Cook”, as he criticized Apple’s growing manufacturing footprint in India. Hours later, the tariff threat went live:

He didn't get fired. It's a legal stipulation that civilians can only occupy a role like that for 100 days.
I can't believe these fucking retards have only been in office for 100 days.
