I received the following responses from our report on Donald Trump turning the White House into a pill-mill and haphazardly dispensing massive amounts of fentanyl, versed, ketamine, hydrocodone, provigil, etc:
“Ben, as an anesthesiologist, i would love to know why anyone outside of an OR procedure suite received versed. All those meds are in our arsenal, as anesthesiologists, and this is absolutely wild”
“This is odd. Outside of Provigil and Ambien, a lot of those medicines are used in surgical procedures.”
“As a pharmacist, if I kept records of controlled substances in this manner, and the DEA or state inspector came in to my pharmacy and saw this, I would be doing time. Unbelievable.”
“This is absolutely nuts. As a disabled vet, I can't even get mild pain relievers without multiple doctors and a pharmacist all agreeing it is more helpful than harmful. Which, by the way, I'm happy that is the way it works. A pharmacist spotted a conflict between medications prescribed by my heart doctor and my primary care doctor. That basically saved my life. If the WH pharmacy was run like a candy store, they honestly put people's lives in danger. Disgusting! And if I understand the reports, many of these people weren't eligible to get these medications from the WH medical staff.”

New House Subpoena Sparks Wave of Theories
Jan 29, 2024 at 3:06 PM EST
https://www.newsweek.com/new-house-subpoena-sparks-wave-theories-1865037
By Andrew Stanton
Weekend Staff Writer
House of Representatives Sergeant at Arms William McFarland announced his office was served a grand jury subpoena by the Department of Justice (DOJ), sparking a wave of theories on social media on Monday afternoon.
McFarland formally notified House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, of a subpoena on Monday. Details about the subpoena, including the investigation to what it is related to, remained unknown, causing some legal experts and political observers to speculate about what it could be about.
Susan Cole, the reading clerk of the House of Representatives, read the notification from McFarland on the House floor Monday afternoon.
"This is to notify you formally, pursuant to Rule 8 of the House of Representatives, that the office of the sergeant at arms for the House of Representatives has been served with a grand jury subpoena for documents issued by the US Department of Justice. After consulting with the office of general counsel, I have determined that compliance with the subpoena is consistent with the rights and privileges of the House," she read.
House subpoena sparks theories
The sergeant at arms is the chief law enforcement and protocol officer of the House of Representatives, according to the House's official website. In that position, McFarland is tasked with overseeing "all issues relating to the safety and security of Members of Congress and the Capitol complex."
Neither the DOJ nor the Office of the Sergeant at Arms has confirmed what the subpoena is related to, leading to social media speculation. None of theories circulating online could be independently verified by Newsweek.
A DOJ spokesperson declined to comment when reached by Newsweek Monday afternoon.
"Keep in mind, Rep Scott Perry's communications seized pursuant to a search warrant in 2022 were JUST finally released to Jack Smith's office after a prolonged 'speech or debate' privilege battle that Perry mostly lost. I wonder if this new subpoena is related," wrote the Mueller, She Wrote podcast account on X, formerly Twitter.
Perry's cell phone was seized by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) in August 2022 as part of the investigation into the attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. The Republican congressman from Pennsylvania has not been charged with any crimes.
"What grand jury? The Trump stuff was already indicted," asked lawyer Bradley P. Moss in his own X post.
Some social media users speculated about whether the subpoena could be related to January 6, 2021, Capitol riot investigations. During the riot, a group of former President Donald Trump's supporters violently protested the 2020 presidential election results after Trump claimed without evidence that the election was stolen from him due to widespread voter fraud.
Meanwhile, more than 140 Republicans voted against certifying then-President Elect Joe Biden's Electoral College victory. Trump, the frontrunner in the 2024 GOP presidential primary, and more than 1,200 individuals involved in the riot have been charged in the case, but no members of Congress have faced charges. The former president maintains his innocence in the case.
"January 6th-related? Something else?" asked user @TrumpTaxes.
"The House sergeant at arms... DOJ documents... grand jury subpoena...Hmmm... sounds like some congressional insurrectionist are soon about to find out..." posted user @HadleySheley.
"Possibilities: - investigation related to January 6 - the time that one Democrat pulled the fire alarm in the House - something else," posted lawyer Robert J. DeNault.
He referred to Representative Jamaal Bowman, a New York Democrat, pulling a fire alarm at the Cannon building last September. His office has said he believed pulling the alarm would open a door, not trigger an alarm.
Update 01/29/24, 3:52 p.m. ET: This article was updated with additional information.
Update 1/29/24, 3:55 p.m. ET: This article was updated with comment from the DOJ.

May have something to do with subpoena power that Jack Smith empowered a grand jury to have and part of proving intent. Maybe having to do with the 14 calls for the National Guard on J6 that were all denied by Chris Miller. First one from the Sgt at Arms 5 minutes after the first breach of Capitol grounds. And remember this;

Habba is doing a great job, exactly what she was hired for, no reason to fire her. She wasn't hired as a real attorney, only to play one on tv and acting out a script the director wrote for her.
Especially the last point - Trump would never say that someone HE works with has “learned” something from failure - as that admits that failure occurred proximal to him, and by extension - he could be arguably responsible for some of it. He could NEVER admit or suggest that.

The multi-disciplinary consultation (MDO) has taken place, I spoke to my team from the Euthanasia Expertise Center, and now I can finally announce my last day.
On Saturday, January 27, my team will come to my home and the euthanasia will take place between 1:30 PM and 2:30 PM .
I chose to make the date and time public because you have all been so excited for this moment with me. I know from experience how supportive it can be to know when it is happening, so that you can reflect on it for a moment or light a candle if you wish. 🕯
Just a request from me: please wait until after 2:30 PM before posting commemorative pictures and the like.
And please don't wish me a good trip, I wish I was going on a trip (a beach holiday would be nice 🏖) but I think I'm going back to what it was like before I was born: no existence, no consciousness. Ultimate peace.
(That part should have been the funny, light-hearted part of the post but unfortunately it turned dark again, sorry. 🫢)
The people invited to the farewell service (in-person or via livestream) will receive a funeral card by post or via social media.
I don't know if I will manage to write another post, but if not: I would like to thank everyone who has been there for me during my illness - and especially in the time before I announced my euthanasia wish. Whether it was by having a nice chat with me on social media, by occasionally asking how things are going, by having deep conversations about suffering and death, or by sending nice animal videos when you couldn't find the words. Whether we have known each other long and well or only a little, it doesn't matter. You have made me feel less alone and I am very grateful for that.
Love, Lauren
Edit: PS Regarding leaving comments: thanks for all the supportive, sweet messages. All messages with unkind texts, unsolicited advice, or references to religion will be removed. (Praying is okay.) Be respectful to me and those around me. Thank you.
“May tender memories soften your grief. May fond recollection bring you relief. And may you find comfort and peace in the thought of the joy that knowing your beloved one brought.”

Over 50 rape induced pregnancies a day just in Texas is a horrible number, but probably horribly undercounted. The environment that raped victoms have to even report it are many times unsurmountable. Texas being the worst, but not the whole story. The extreme republicans are the whole story.
Nearly 65,000 US rape victims could not get an abortion in their state, analysis shows
Researchers estimated likely number of rape-related pregnancies in 14 states with near-total abortion bans since Dobbs ruling
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/jan/25/abortion-after-rape-laws-bans
Nearly 65,000 rape-related pregnancies likely occurred in the 14 US states with near-total abortion bans following the US supreme court’s 2022 Dobbs decision – yet just 10 legal abortions are performed monthly on average in these states, researchers found in a new analysis.
The data demonstrates that abortion bans likely make it impossible for most victims of rape to obtain abortions in their home states, even for the minority of people who live in states with exemptions for rape, researchers said.

Russian investor made millions off insider trading tied to Trump Media, court docs say
BY BEN WIEDERAND JAY WEAVER UPDATED JANUARY 24, 2024 6:03 PM
https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/article284580595.html?
A Russian-American businessman based in Miami is suspected of making nearly $23 million from alleged insider trading involving former President Donald Trump’s media company, according to federal court records. The businessman, Anton Postolnikov, is the owner of a Caribbean bank that caters to the porn industry and also reportedly loaned $8 million to Trump’s media company. Postolnikov, who owns a few residences on exclusive Fisher Island in Miami, is the nephew of a former high-ranking Russian government official who at one time was a staffer for Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to media reports...........

I believe it's just an internal extreme right power struggle. Kari has had trump's ear, been in regular contact, and there is still the extreme right attempts to take over. Lake pushing for some position of power somewhere, anywhere, other than just one of trump's disposable soldiers. Trump loves infighting and gleefully enjoys watching his lackeys clawing over each other to see who can kiss his ring the best. Plus DeWit hasn't accomplished what he was put in for and when one is a putz for trump, they have to realize that serving a seriously mentally and emotionally sick person should at some point expect a bunch of bus tracks over them. Dewit just exceeded his expiration date.
For a back story, this explains pretty well. You can easily read between the lines.

Texas saw an estimated 26,313 rape-related pregnancies during the 16 months after the state outlawed all abortions, with no exceptions for survivors of rape or incest, according to a study published Wednesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
That’s the highest figure among the 14 states with total abortion bans, with Texas having the largest population, according to the study.
“Survivors who need abortion care should not have their reproductive autonomy further undermined by state policy,” said one of the authors, Dr. Kari White, of the Texas-based Resound Research for Reproductive Health. ......

WASHINGTON — A man who was convicted of manslaughter for killing a civilian while he was deployed in Iraq nearly 20 years ago has been arrested and charged with assaulting law enforcement officers at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
Edward Richmond Jr., 40, who lives in Geismar, Louisiana, was arrested in Baton Rouge on Monday morning, according to the Justice Department. He faces felony charges of civil disorder; entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon; and assaulting, resisting or impeding officers, according to court documents.
According to the criminal complaint, photos show Richmond using a baton to attack law enforcement officers in the lower west tunnel of the Capitol, where some of the most violent attacks on Jan. 6, 2021, took place.
Online “sedition hunters” aided in identifying images of Richmond that were cited by the FBI. In its criminal complaint, the Justice Department said Richmond "wore a black helmet, goggles, shoulder pads, an orange two-way radio, and a Louisiana State Flag patch on his chest during the attack." The outfit led online sleuths to dub him "Buff Lightyear.".....................
