Russ...

Vladimir Putin was inaugurated for a new six-year term as President of Russia after winning re-election in March. Putin took the oath of office in gold-leaf bedecked hall at the Kremlin, vowing to pursue an economic agenda to boost living standards across the country.

He said improving Russia's economy following a recession partly linked to international sanctions would be a primary goal of his next six-year term. Similar?

That hurts some. But look at the bright side, his people loves him, and we may be the reason.

Dance...

Slept...

Stormy Daniels, alleges she had a nearly year-long affair with Donald Trump in 2006 and 2007, but she never slept with him.

“Technically I didn’t sleep with the POTUS 12 years ago. There was no sleeping (hehe) and he was just a goofy reality TV star,” she wrote in a tweet.  Stormy is defending herself on Twitter.  

She wants to speak out about her alleged affair with Trump, dragging his character and her's through the mud of distastefulness. You slept with a married man for a reason!?.

• The Media is looking for what brings in the ratings, regardless of the damage they cause. Stormy has filled their airways with the stuff they looking for. It is going to smell bad soon. 

Good Guy...

No Matter...

We know what Trump did, or almost did, or possible did through the Media. The Media has it's own agenda as well. The public must separate deliberate fiction from half truth and tainted news.
That is the dilemma.

Perception...

Hush...

Jobs...

The unemployment rate is now 3.9 percent, the lowest rate since 2000 and a sign that the job market has become even more competitive. It had been 4.1 percent since October 2017.

KickBack...

In a speech at the Food and Drug Law Institute Annual conference, FDA commissioner, Gottlieb said the U.S. doesn't have a "truly free market" when it comes to drug prices.

He suggested that the federal government should re-examine whether drug rebates, which manufacturers pay to pharmacy benefit managers and insurers in exchange for more favorable coverage of their products, should be exempt from an anti-kickback law.

"Such a step could restore some semblance of reality to the relationship between list and negotiated prices, and thereby boost affordability and competition," Gottlieb said.

The anti-kickback statute makes it illegal to offer remuneration in exchange for health-care services or products reimbursable by a federal health-care program. A change along the lines of what Gottlieb suggested could mean the government could impose fines or threaten other legal action "to force changes in the rebate system."

 That is one step.

Whaddya...
