On day one, he did an exec order reversing Biden's EO to lower prescription drug costs. So, to all the people that bitched about inflation and said they were better off under trump, you are already worse off under trump, and that was day 1. 

But the phrama companies are doing better! So, you have that going for you.

 Leopards Ate My Face on reddit is a wealth of schadenfreude: newly-hired (but not yet onboarded) Fed employees who have already moved their families have their offers rescinded; moved-when-they-went-remote Fed employees not understanding how they'll RTO; people suffering from rare diseases having the NIH research paused.

BUT! Eggs prices should come down now that the FDA isn't forbidden from communicating with the public, so recalls won't happen. Winning!

Recalls cost money, which is passed on to the consumer, so if you stop testing for salmonella there is no salmonella, so prices will come down (or profit will go up). Whose to say which way companies will lean towards.  /S

I need some Canadian > American English translation on this one:

"Was not going to vote Liberal under Trudeau but I bit the bullet today and registered/ volunteered for the Liberals assuming Carney will win the leadership race. Anyone else planning to do the same?" from reddit

Is this the equivalent of "I didn't like the candidate so I'm was going change parties (or not vote at all)"?

Because that's what it kinda sounds like and, holy ****, have y'all not been paying attention to what that gets you?! (looking at the account it may be a troll but it made it to the front page)

 Yup, that's what it is.  Ontario re-elected the Conservatives and Doug Ford in 2022 winning 83 of 124 seats with only about 18% of eligible voters voting for them. 

Eligible voter turn out was only 44%. A record low turn out, previous low record was 48% in 2011.

You know how everything was Biden's fault (economy, price of groceries, gas, houses, rent, etc...). Well in Canada that was all Trudeau's fault. I guess both of them snuck into grocery stores at night and set the price on everything.

 I was throughly afraid that's what it meant, because I knew (loosely) there was a lot of "current party ruined my life" sentiment. But, **** people, can we stop living out the "hold day beer" meme in real life?!

Nah, like Harry & Meghan she's "stepping back" from royal duties. 

"Whoever controls the media controls the mind"

I have an idea that may help you out if there's ever another election down there. Hear me out:

If you own more guns than teeth, or if you've ever had an alligator for a pet, you cannot vote. 

You're welcome. 

ppppsssssstttttttt! I have seen this morning that google had a search spike on election day for "did Joe Biden drop out of the election race?"

Going out on a limb here, but i think I found the problem, America.

And maybe the most terrible irony of them all, he couldn't give a flying **** if a woman got an abortion. He's probably paid for several of them in his lifetime. It was all just a means to an end to win over the evangelicals. And they fell for it hook, line and sinker.
