Welcome new followers!

I'm a healthcare policy analyst, advocate & blogger who focuses primarily on the ACA. I’ve also gained some attention for my COVID19 data analysis.

I also raise money online for Democratic candidates.

Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

In the 1930s, German and Italian scientists of principle fled to the US and became the backbone of our scientific and technical advantage, creating massive US wealth. Those who benefited most from their work are now… fleeing to chase lower tax rates. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/09/t...

Remember this same GOP crowd once styled itself the "Moral Majority." Murder, rape, pedophilia, and theft - all of which Republicans defend - are anything but moral. Maybe they should go with "the Amoral Party" instead.
When the State Terrorizes the People

The killing of Renee Good reveals, yet again, Trumpism’s violent, authoritarian essence. MAGA is at war with the reality of American society.

Also, the guy who killed someone dropped an F bomb. So the only difference between him and Frey is killing someone.
WELKER: Do you bear any responsibility to bring down the temperature?

FREY: Of course. But I dropped an F bomb and they killed somebody. I think the killing somebody is the inflammatory element here and not the F bomb.

He's just straight up rationalizing that it's OK for them to murder people over "hateful rhetoric."

"Contempt of cop" is not, in fact, a crime, especially not one that warrants summary execution on the streets.
WELKER: What do you see in that video?

HOMAN: I've said from March -- if the hateful rhetoric doesn't decline there's going to be bloodshed. And unfortunately I was right. You gotta put yourself in the mind of the officer.

I appreciate that and I could very well be wrong here. The fact that Fetterman, of all people, voted against the nominee while Welch of VT voted for him tells me that there's more going on here than a simple "do I support this nominee or not" but it still bothers me greatly.

Tapper to Noem: "I just showed you video of people attacking law enforcement officers on J6. Trump pardoned them all. You said Trump is enforcing all the laws equally. That's just not true. There's a different standard for LEOs being attacked if they're being attacked by Trump supporters."

Before Obamacare my small business bought out of state insurance because we were broke and it seemed like a bargain. Then we discovered their strategy was to reject literally every single claim and make you fight each time. It was a ripoff at half the price.

This is what they mean.
