B complex and magnesium are literally required to live. Ashwagandha and theanine are great for anxiety. Creatine is probably the most extensively and consistently proven sups for athletic performance, with rodeo rhodesia not far behind.

I don't know shit about Jnco Balboa though, nor ginseng nor beetroot.

ChatGPT says they are good for you

The supplements listed in the meme—ginseng, ashwagandha, B-complex, beetroot, ginkgo biloba, creatine, L-theanine, rhodiola rosea, and magnesium—are generally safe when taken at recommended doses. However, taking all of them at once could have some effects, depending on your body's sensitivity, dosage, and any underlying health conditions. Here’s what might happen:

Potential Effects​

1. Increased Energy & Focus – Many of these supplements (ginseng, rhodiola, ginkgo, B-complex, and creatine) are known for their cognitive and energy-boosting properties. You might feel more alert, focused, and physically energized.
2. Lower Stress & Anxiety – Ashwagandha, L-theanine, and rhodiola are adaptogens, which may help with stress management and relaxation.
3. Better Blood Circulation & Oxygenation – Beetroot, ginkgo biloba, and magnesium can enhance blood flow, possibly improving endurance and brain function.
4. Possible Side Effects – Overloading on these supplements could cause headaches, dizziness, digestive issues, or excessive stimulation, depending on how much you take.

What to Watch Out For​

• Blood Pressure Changes – Ginseng, beetroot, and ginkgo can lower blood pressure, which might be problematic for people on medication.
• Overstimulation or Fatigue – Taking too many adaptogens at once (ashwagandha, rhodiola, ginseng) could either make you too wired or too relaxed.
• Stomach Issues – High doses of magnesium or B-complex vitamins can cause nausea or diarrhea.

If you're thinking about trying this mix, it's best to introduce them gradually rather than all at once. Are you considering taking these together for a specific reason, like boosting energy or reducing stress?

You can't hate plebbiters enough. They shouldn't be screaming "WHY IS DRUMPF DOING THIS TO ME", it should be "WHY DID MY COUNTRY'S GOVERNMENT AND COMPANIES DO THIS TO ME".

idk if this actually went anywhere. But it would be interesting to live life for a day with my autism switched off.

[lol cow supreme]

I was surprised to see how many people in this thread that so quickly resorted to trying to silence discussion about something because they see this as "settled science" and any question asking isent just seen as foolish but actively to be fought against?

Maybe cus this is a US Politics thread, and not a warthunder forum or NTSB discussion? Its not a general news, natural or manmade disaster thread.

I'm not saying your friend is leaving details out but he is probably leaving details out.

Someone in that chain is leaving details out and it's definitely concerning.

I'm sorry your friend was caught in that

I do hope all this chaos is worth it. Honestly, mister DoD is either going to get another job offer or do better in the private sector than he would in government worst comes to worst.

With Tulsi and RFK, Trump (and Vance) have earned easily an extra 1-2 points nationally. Trump's follow-through is not lost on the average person, and in many ways the DOGE revelations made sure to keep the RINOs in check.

Remember with Gaetz and even early Hegseth, there were faggots trying to walk the fence and even little faggots like Romney's replacement trying to be big man on campus by saying no. But DOGE has made the government look so much more inept and toxic and broken, only retarded democrats are the ones trying to save it. The best way to not associate that if you were a RINO who voted for all that shit is to just rubber stamp Trump's people so you get politically pushed off the cliff last.

In fact, it's stupid how democrats aren't even trying to drag old republicans down with them just to do some damage politically.

BREAKING: Washington police REMOVED Khalistani “Kill Modi Politics” demonstrators from the park in front of the White House, where U.S. President Trump and Indian Prime Minister Modi are meeting. The pro-India crowd was allowed to demonstrate, while the anti-India crowd was forced out of the park. Police say the organizers of the “Kill Modi Politics” rally did not apply for a permit to demonstrate in the park.

I heard more than 1 reply that sounded as if they were nuclear engineers admonishing a new colleague for a foolish error in logic that any greenhorn should know.

Hmmm...I wonder why it would read that way.

The best medicine is cocaine, I gave it to my 9 year old daughter and she made Spaghetti-os all by herself.

Your friend's friend is a liar or someone along the line is. DOGE hasn't made it to the DoD yet. Nice fan fic though.

I have a friend in the DoD. While you are strongly discouraged from telling random people on the street who you work for - for your own safety - it's not actually banned. And also, if someone ALREADY KNOWS that you work for the DoD, it's a moot point. Obviously.

Big difference between announcing your employer is the DOD and spilling your guts to a rando about an SAP, even if they are from DOGE.

Trump: "Not long ago 1 in 10,000 children had autism. Now it's 1 in 36. Who can believe that? There's something wrong. And I think it's something that can be found out."

Yeah it's being overdiagnosed for profit. Mountains of profit. I didn't even need a confirmation hearing to explain that.

 

[Sweeter and Savoury]

lolz Musk sent Rand Paul to testify in front of the DODGE hearings

It's going about as well as you would imagine for the Democrats. Imagine trying to defending some of these spending....but but but muh AIDS, muh humanitarian care! Muh defence of free speech in EU land! Fucking KeK

Good times so far. I hope Rand Paul joins forces with DODGE and really fucks over the dark money machine

Wonder what Jefferson and Hamilton would think of a "permit to demonstrate"

every now and again I read something like that the snaps me out of our current time and place and I just see how the people of 1775 would respond to the British passing that as a law against them

You almost get the feeling we are only pretending we have some of the freedoms we claim to be so proud of and you just start to wonder, if that's the case how long has it been like that and even with all the good things happening now, can we ever get them back?

I know the jeet political party dosent seem like the hill to die on over this but its a good example of how you don't show the honesty of your policy's and ideals when they apply to you and yours but when you are confronted with them needing to apply to people you dont like or disagree with, thats when you find out if you really believe in anything or just whatever helps you out the most in the moment.

In fact, it's stupid how democrats aren't even trying to drag old republicans down with them just to do some damage politically.

Because it is as good as admitting you did steal tax payer money. Right now they are in the denial stage still. The excuse "they did it too" would be the worse thing they could say right now.

Anyone have a linkedin sock to grab stuff from the USAID workers? If so, can you please go fetch stuff for here and the /r/fednews threads? I'm curious what the lifers are saying.

Democrat Rep. Janelle Bynum just compared the Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act to the Fugitive Slave Act.

Here is some information on the Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act:

Sen. Cruz previously introduced the legislation in 2023.

On December 7, 2022, Border Patrol Agent Raul Gonzalez, Jr. died in the line of duty after his ATV crashed while he pursued illegal aliens who were fleeing capture. Agent Gonzalez honorably served his country for over a decade.

The Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act would permanently prohibit any illegal alien who flees from Border Patrol from ever receiving any legal immigration status in the United States. Additionally, any person who flees from Border Patrol, or law enforcement assisting Border Patrol, would face up to two years in prison. If someone is injured during pursuit, the sentencing range would increase to 5 to 20 years. Finally, if death results from the pursuit, the defendant could face up to life in prison.

The Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act also requires the Department of Justice to report to Congress about how often they are prosecuting illegal aliens for violating the proposed Act.

Senator Cruz, Senator John Cornyn, and Congresswoman De La Cruz also introduced legislation to honor Agent Gonzalez by naming a post office after him in McAllen, Texas.

The National Border Patrol Council, which represents the men and women of Border Patrol, has endorsed the Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act.
