No one’s against ICE or immigration enforcement. They’re against ICE being comprised of fascist high school bullies who couldn’t cut it in the military and think that shooting pastors in the head with plastic bullets, for no reason, is acceptable.

More than a decade ago, I sat down with @marcmaron.bsky.social in his garage to tape something new called a podcast. This time, he came to me to record his last episode.

We talked about the power of conviction, decency in an age of division, and the true story of America.

🇺🇸 I am a proud, anti-fascist vet who served on the USS Trenton LPD-14 as an assault boat coxswain in the '70s.

🇺🇸 We defended our country from America-attacking, suckers and losers like Trump.

🇺🇸 So Happy 250th, Navy! Remember: You are to protect us from fascist enemies like Trump, not appease them.

While our president attacks our seniors — slashing Medicare, threatening Social Security, and driving up costs with reckless economic policies — they deserve a leader who will stand up for them at every turn. That’s exactly what I’ll do as governor.

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 29m

Interesting, given Comey never uttered those words in his 2020 testimony. He said “I stand by my testimony” (from 2017). This might be the basis for Comey’s lawyer mentioning the Bronston defense, as I explained on yesterday’s Breakdown: www.youtube.com/live/8oJvw7F...

In new court filing, Justice Dept details more of its allegations in its criminal case against James Comey:"

"Count One alleges that the defendant made a false statement to the Senate Judiciary Committee when he denied that he authorized someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports"

📌Imagine how different the optics would be if Joe Biden shut down the United States Government, fired workers, jeopardized healthcare, ordered troops into our streets, threatened NATO allies, and then escaped to Israel looking for people to kiss his ass.

He'd be endlessly pilloried by the press.

Always appeal your medical denials, especially since more payers are using AI to make denial decisions (which are supposed to be made by a doctor.)

Always exhaust all appeal options. The squeaky wheel gets the grease in these situations. Trust me.

Appeal, appeal, appeal. Make them do extra work.

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.

Here’s what experts say you need to know.

How to Fight Your Health Insurance Denial with an External Appeal

When a health insurer refuses to pay for your treatment, you may have the right to have the denial reviewed — and potentially overturned — by an independent provider. Here are six steps experts sugges...

Please correct me if my memory is not accurate.

Didn't the MAGA Republicans spend the entire Biden presidency trying to impeach him based on allegations that he abused his office for his family's financial gain?

And why is it now ok for a president’s son to get a company board job?
