48. He has a Turkish name

Thu Nov 21, 2024, 12:20 AM

Thursday

How is that "weird" to be aware of that? I never watched the Dr Oz TV show and never watched him on Oprah, okay? I've heard about her being chummy with and promoting him. Is that alright with you that I never watched those TV shows or is that "weird", too?

I said I supported Fetterman. I trust what he said about protecting Medicare and Medicaid, which is what Oz has been nominated to administrate. That's it.
