I don't know how to fix the Thread Reader, so you get described screenshots. Hope this helps. [1/3]

Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 1/31 I believe there is growing evidence, that the White House is covering up the fact that Donald Trump has been dealing with TIA strokes. AND that he likely had a more significant ischemic stroke this week. [Getty Images photo of Trump from a distance, said to be going to golf.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 2/31 Let's start with the basics: -TIA's are temporary blockages, you'll see symptoms (leg dragging, eye drooping etc) but they resolve within 24 hours. -Ischemic strokes leave a lasting impact, but can range dramatically in scope and severity. Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 3/31 TIAs precede an ischemic stroke in about 30% of patients and often result in long lasting interventions to try and prevent any risk of a larger stroke. Now, let's get to what paints this picture with Trump: [Image of text. Highlighted bullet point: History of TIAs: About 30 percent of strokes are preceded by one or more TIAs that can occur days, weeks or even months before a stroke.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 4/31 In March 2024, @RonFilipkowski notes that Trump has been dragging his right leg for a while. It's something we've seen him do on and off over this past year, but not super notable on its own. Quote Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski, Mar 18, 2024: Something is definitely going on with his right leg. He’s been dragging it for months. This weekend … [Embedded video.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 5/31 Then in a Time Magazine interview from right after the election we see the first note of Trump's hand bruising. Once again, something people didn't think much of at the time. [Image of text blaming this on shaking hands.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 6/31 It comes up again during the Marcon visit on Feb 25th 2025, where Karoline Levitt repeats the lie about it being from Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 9/31 There are two general takeaways I heard from multiple specialists: -Daily Aspirin is not recommended for

More screenshots. [2/3]

Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 13/31 Then in June, we see Trump's swollen ankles, and for the first time, the White House medical team is willing to admit: 1) He's got Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 15/31 The next problem? 2) CVI is not a sudden onset issue, and swollen ankles is an intermediate symptom. An annual physical in April, would have caught CVI back then if ankles were going to be swelling (and aspirin isn't a CVI treatment) Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 16/31 But 3rd? Some of the bruising is monthly. Usually around the 24th. Check the dates. It seems much more likely that the president is being monitored monthly for something and then also occasionally getting an emergency IV as well. [Images of tops of articles labeled February 25 & August 25, both of 2025.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 17/31 So what does all this mean? When a patient has had a TIA they have temporary symptoms, but would be started on aspirin, Rosuvastatin and Ezetimibe, to prevent future ischemic stroke risk - just like we see with Trump Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 18/31 The patient having TIA's may have temporary symptoms for 24 hour afterwards including face drooping, leg dragging, or trouble walking in a straight line. Quote MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch, Aug 15: Trump struggled to walk in a straight line as he went to greet Putin [Embedded video of same.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 19/31 Patients who experience very mild strokes that are not TIA, such as a lacunar stroke or a minor ischemic stroke, may have persistent but barely noticeable symptoms, causing drooping of the lip, eyelid and eyebrow, which would be on the same side of a leg dragging symptom [2 images of Trump.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 20/31 If a patient, under WH level medical care was seen having a stroke, they'd be scanned to rule out a hemorrhagic with the WH portable MRI, and then could receive Alteplase, a clot-busting peripheral IV often given in the hand for elderly patients.  Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 21/31 If that patient was on aspirin for cardio risk management (and/or) potential calcium blockers, we'd expect bruising of the hands, and swelling of the ankles. [Images of both these things.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 22/31 If they had a mild ischemic stroke, we'd expect the patient to be: -On bed rest for 24-48 hours -By 2-3 days able to take small or assisted steps And the patient may have facial droop, flatter facial creases or their mouth agape due to facial muscle weakness [Image of news copy with highlighting pointing out he's been missing for 4 days. Image of him with mouth open & face looking droopy, eyes looking tired. Dude looks sick or worse.]

Last of the screenshots. [3/3]

Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 23/31 Even though they could walk at this time, speech and complex motor skills may still be recovering. And we notice Trump has oddly kept the press pool *very* far back from the White House, and hasn't allowed them on the golf course. [Image of Trump from, like, across the street.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 24/31 We also notice that he was dressed the same as the last time he went golfing with Kai, and that MAGA influencers were given an old picture to circulate from Jan, and his other Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 25/31 Those same influencers were circulating a video of him in the same outfit, but that one came from June 29th this year. Quote: Dani Bak @danibak1, Aug 30: Trump appeared in public before playing golf, finally dispelling rumors of his death. The video of Trump turned out to be old - the health of the US president is still unknown. The video was posted on June 29. [Embedded video.] Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 26/31 The next picture of him from today, from a far with continued face droop. He once again spoke with no reporters before going golfing. And both times, reporters were confined to the tennis court out of view of his course, instead of letting them take pictures like normal. [Grainy image of Trump from far away, with mouth open & face looking kinda droopy. His head is turned in profile & partially shaded by his ballcap.]  Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran: 27/31 None of this even gets into the other weird events this week, of Vance being ready to
