Amid the U.S. Health and Human Service's (HHS) Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) campaign to promote a healthy and active lifestyle, Vice President JD Vance recently joined American Navy SEALs in California for a 90-minute workout, which he said left him feeling like he “got hit by a freight train.”

Over a dozen Republican attorneys general warned a leftist climate group that it may be illegally attempting to eliminate fossil fuels from the American economy, according to a letter obtained by The Daily Wire.  Led by Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen, 17 attorneys general sent a letter on Tuesday to the group As You Sow, raising questions about its climate activism. As You Sow is a nonprofit that works “to change corporations from the inside out” and move the economy away from fossil fuels through shareholder advocacy.  “As You Sow, a little-known but influential member of the climate cartel, is attempting to eliminate the fossil-fuel industry, which will have a devastating impact on Montanans, especially in the winter when we need fossil fuels to heat our homes,” Knudsen told The Daily Wire. “Their efforts to push their green, woke agenda and box out the fossil-fuel industry appear to be a violation of antitrust and Montana consumer protection laws.” As You Sow wants to “transition” the economy from being based on “fossil-fuel based energy to clean energy sources” and wants to “promote environmental and social corporate responsibility through shareholder advocacy.” “As You Sow’s efforts to eliminate fossil fuels and transform the American economy are an assault on American families and businesses. It must stop,” the Republican officials wrote in their letter. “As You Sow demands artificial transformations of entire markets and sectors, inevitably impacting the output and quality of the goods and services produced by those sectors. Moreover, As You Sow seeks change that uniformly aligns with its predetermined policy agenda.” One of the As You Sow initiatives scrutinized by the Republican officials included its “Invest Your Values” tool. This tool “analyzes the climate and social impact” of mutual funds and 401(k)s.  The Invest Your Values tool says that some retirement funds should “exclude ESG risky companies” like fossil fuels companies and gun manufacturers while incorporating “a gender-lens investment lens.” The letter was also signed by the attorneys general of Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Iowa, Louisiana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Missouri, North Dakota, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming.  “As Attorneys General, we have a duty to protect the citizens of our States from unlawful business practices, and we are prepared to enforce antitrust laws if necessary to stop any illegal conduct by As You Sow,” they said.  The letter also raised questions about the relationship between As You Sow and As You Know, a company that says it harnesses “the power of shareholders to create lasting change and align investments with values.” As You Sow is the majority shareholder of As You Know and has an exclusive license to the ESG data gathered by As You Sow.  “If companies do what As You Sow demands, they will score more favorably on As You Know’s benchmarks sold to them and to investors, which in turn influence investments and proxy voting,” the officials wrote in their letter.  Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships The letter was supported by Will Hild, the executive director of the group Consumers’ Research.  “For years, activist organization, As You Sow, has been pressuring companies and organizations to adopt a radical climate agenda that would drive up costs, destroy reliable energy, and make things more expensive for consumers,” Hild told The Daily Wire. “Instead of focusing on things like lower energy costs or strengthening the American economy, As You Sow’s only priority is to reshape the energy sector to meet senseless net-zero benchmarks.”

Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY) is running to succeed outgoing Republican Sen. Cynthia Lummis in the United States Senate. “We must keep up this fight, and that’s why today, I’m announcing my campaign for United States Senate,” the Republican said in a campaign video on Tuesday, which featured her 102-year-old mother, Marion Hageman. “This fight is about making sure the next century sees the advancements of the last, while protecting our culture and our way of life,” she added. Hageman gained nationwide attention in 2022 for defeating former Rep. Liz Cheney in the Republican primary after an endorsement from President Donald Trump. Hageman blew past Cheney with 66% of the vote to Cheney’s 29%. Cheney, formerly the chair of the House Republican Conference, became a staunch opponent of Trump and campaigned with Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. Wyoming has a singular at-large House district, and Trump campaigned for Hageman in May 2022 in Casper. “I spoke with Harriet yesterday— She will be one of the best US Senators in the country. No question. We need her in there!” Tyler Bowyer, COO of Turning Point Action, posted to X on Tuesday. It’s unclear if any other major candidates will enter the Republican field at this point. Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships The seat is considered to be solidly Republican, according to the Cook Political Report. Lummis won in 2020 with nearly 73% of the vote, and Trump won the state in 2024 with nearly 72% of the vote. Wyoming has a population of under 600,000 people. As for Lummis, she announced that she would not be seeking a second term in the upper chamber on Friday. The senator was known as a leader on cryptocurrency policy as well as energy. “Deciding not to run for reelection does represent a change of heart for me, but in the difficult, exhausting session weeks this fall I’ve come to accept that I do not have six more years in me. I am a devout legislator, but I feel like a sprinter in a marathon. The energy required doesn’t match up,” Lummis, 71, stated. “I am honored to have earned the support of President Trump and to have the opportunity to work side by side with him to fight for the people of Wyoming. I look forward to continuing this partnership and throwing all my energy into bringing important legislation to his desk in 2026 and into retaining commonsense Republican control of the U.S. Senate. Thank you, Wyoming!” she continued. If elected, Hageman would be serving alongside Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, who was re-elected in 2024.

Democrat Boston mayor Michelle Wu credited the Somali community for the achievements in the city’s history.  The far-Left official is getting blasted for comments she made during a Somali-American community rally on Saturday. The clip started circulating on social media, leading to big pushback from viewers. @officeofmayorwu Two weeks ago, federal officials pulled Somali-Americans out of line at Faneuil Hall where they waited to be sworn in as naturalized citizens. We will not be quiet. Boston is the cradle of liberty and we stand with our Somali neighbors. ♬ original sound – Boston Mayor Michelle Wu – Boston Mayor Michelle Wu “You cannot talk about any achievement that the city of Boston has had in safety, jobs, and economic development, in education, without talking about the Somali community that has lifted our city up. We are proud and we are grateful for our Somali community and for our Somali-American neighbors. Boston and the country are clear that hate has no place in our society,” the Boston mayor said. “We will use every attack to actually strengthen and expand the services available, to empower and work alongside our community members who are already doing so much good in the world and setting the example for the rest of the country.” “Can you list those achievements here for everyone?” one commenter on X replied. Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships Another commenter quipped, “Remember when the [Somalis] tossed the tea into the harbor?” Her comments come on the heels of a massive Somali-tied welfare fraud scheme that was uncovered in Minnesota involving billions of taxpayer dollars being stolen from the state, as The Daily Wire previously reported. “We believe that the Somali fraud operation in Minnesota is the single greatest theft of taxpayer dollars, through welfare fraud, in American history,” Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller said on Fox News. “We believe we have only scratched the very top of the surface of how deep this goes.” The mayor made her position clear months after being elected to office. At a St. Patrick’s Day breakfast in 2022, Wu caught heat for joking that she was “getting used to dealing with problems that are expensive, disruptive, and white,” before quickly adding that she was allegedly referring to “snowstorms, [and] snowflakes.” She also seemingly compared ICE agents to neo-Nazis this June. “I don’t know of any police department that routinely wears masks. We know that there are other groups that routinely wear masks. NSC-131 routinely wears masks,” Wu told reporters at the time, as The Daily Wire previously reported. “Mayor, just to clarify, are you comparing ICE to — you said — to NSC-131, a neo-Nazi group? Are you comparing them to a neo-Nazi group?” a reporter asked. “What I said is that Boston police, and no police department that I know of at the local level, routinely wears masks” she replied. The Department of Homeland Security fired back on social media, calling the apparent comparison “sickening.”

A veterinary sedative 200 times more potent than the flesh-eating drug xylazine has seized control of Philadelphia’s streets, creating withdrawal symptoms so severe they’re filling ICUs and killing younger users through organ failure. When Drug Dealers Outsmart Government Bans Pennsylvania’s 2024 ban on xylazine, the flesh-destroying “tranq” that left users with bone-exposing wounds requiring amputations, seemed like a victory against the opioid crisis. Instead, drug cartels switched to medetomidine, a veterinary anesthetic normally reserved for sedating dogs and ICU patients. Within months, this “rhino tranq” captured seven out of ten drug bags circulating in Kensington, Philadelphia’s notorious open-air drug market. The timing reveals the futility of playing chemical whack-a-mole with criminal organizations. As physician Jeanmarie Perrone notes, Pennsylvania’s crackdown on xylazine tracking coincided precisely with medetomidine’s street debut. Dealers didn’t abandon their business model—they upgraded it with a substance 200 times more potent than its predecessor, creating a more profitable and devastating product. NARCO-TERROR! When you see videos of ppl “folded over”, these are the effects of fentanyl + xylazine, the “zombie drug”. Users ‘freeze’ mid-step, their bodies collapse while still conscious. This is why Trump targets narco boats with military force. This is narco-terror pic.twitter.com/FDhA9Nlg9J — Sheri Unfiltered (@FFT1776) December 5, 2025 The Economics of Addiction Get More Ruthless Chris Simpson, a former glazer now homeless in Kensington, explains the cruel mathematics behind medetomidine’s market dominance. Where heroin provided all-day relief, this new concoction demands fresh purchases every four hours. The rush remains identical, but euphoria disappears entirely, leaving only the compulsion to avoid withdrawal. Cartels transformed addiction from a daily habit into an around-the-clock revenue stream. This calculated cruelty extends beyond mere profit margins. Users describe withdrawal symptoms that eclipse anything previously documented in addiction medicine. Simpson details uncontrollable vomiting until only bile remains, racing heart rates, and debilitating vertigo. Others report “brain zaps” and heart attacks severe enough to require hospitalization. The veterinary sedative that safely anesthetizes animals becomes a torture device when removed from human systems. Losing a limb on the streets of Portland is so common it’s no longer if but when. The main culprit is xylazine mixed with fentanyl which if you use long enough it leads to the rotting of limbs and amputation. The second most common pic.twitter.com/MxVQoJQs2p — Kevin Dahlgren (@kevinvdahlgren) October 28, 2025 Hospitals Become Battlegrounds Against Unknown Chemistry Emergency rooms across Philadelphia face an unprecedented crisis as medetomidine overwhelms traditional overdose protocols. Narcan successfully reverses fentanyl overdoses, but patients remain unconscious from the veterinary component, creating dangerous delays in treatment. Roz Pichardo, who has personally reversed over 3,000 overdoses since 2018, watches helplessly as the life-saving drug she relies on becomes only partially effective. Penn Presbyterian Medical Center dedicates 35 ICU beds monthly to medetomidine withdrawal cases, representing 25% of intensive care capacity during peak months. The medical establishment lacks basic tools to address this crisis—medetomidine withdrawal doesn’t even have an official diagnosis code. Rehabilitation centers designed for traditional opioid addiction prove woefully inadequate against a drug that can only be legally prescribed in ICU settings. https://twitter.com/PNWConservative/status/1994925954079363492 Political Solutions Miss the Mark Mayor Cherelle Parker’s “tough on crime” approach tripled police presence in Kensington and invested in new treatment facilities, yet these conventional strategies fail to address medetomidine’s unique challenges. Her administration’s $5.5 million Wellness Court and controversial crackdowns on mobile harm reduction services tackle symptoms rather than the underlying supply chain innovation driving the crisis. Meanwhile, evidence-based solutions remain politically untouchable. Supervised injection sites were rejected last year despite proven effectiveness elsewhere. Safe supply programs, successfully implemented in Canada and Switzerland, receive no serious consideration. As Pichardo observes, providing pharmaceutical-grade heroin with known effects beats allowing “crazy stuff” to flow unchecked through communities. Sometimes the most radical solution is the most conservative choice—choosing known risks over unknown dangers.
