The ACA isn't just "health care for people who don't have a conventional employer." It also disallows something that was incredibly common 20 years ago, which I fear is getting lost to generational memory: insurance companies could deny you health care for essentially any previous health problem.
I'm dubious about Amazon's commitment to keeping pre-existing conditions a thing of the past.

Measles didn’t make a comeback on its own.

This is RFK Jr’s anti-vax movement and his disinformation campaign. And equally as disturbing, some people are perfectly fine with this outcome.

Rand Paul: "The president also said, 'Be careful Colombia, you could be next.' I mean, if we're gonna go and topple regime after regime in South America, there's no amount of money that could be printed to pay for that and I don't think lives should be lost without a vote by Congress."

For the second year in a row, the wealth gains for the 100 richest Americans exceeded what ALL American households spent on groceries combined.

~$995B for billionaires vs ~$775B in total grocery spending.

We have an oligarchy and inequality problem masquerading as an affordability crisis.

REP. @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “The biggest ‘welfare queens’ in 🇺🇸 are corporations that don’t pay a penny in federal taxes, and CEOs who get a tax deduction for flying on a private jet — not hungry kids, or working parents who work multiple jobs.”

Talk about being nasty... The White House should be on the naughty list for stealing the nation's healthcare, which expires on December 31, 2025.
This is not normal, and continued and ever-increasing rhetoric like this should not be treated as normal. #holdfast #steadystate

"Measles outbreaks are spreading across the U.S., and the nation is likely to lose its status as a country where the disease is eliminated, something that infectious disease specialists say is directly related to the appointment of Secretary Kennedy."

When the government admits it broke the law to imprison children, that is not a policy failure. It is a moral one.
ICE now admits that hundreds of children were held past the legal 20-day custody limit set to protect their safety.

Five were kept for 168 days.

Some faced unsafe conditions and went days without medical care.

This crosses a moral line.
About 400 immigrant children were detained longer than the recommended limit, ICE admits
Legal advocates concerned over the prolonged detention of immigrant children in federal custody are sounding the alarm before the federal court. U.S.

The US and multiple countries have what’s called A DEMOCRACY. America came into existence to escape a king. Why would we want another and one as completely ignorant to the people’s needs as this incompetent idiot? He’s in it for the grift and destruction. To hand us over to his rich oligarchs.

Let me make it clear I’m against Netflix acquiring Warner Bros Discovery. That would concentrate corporate power in ways that harm consumers and distort American politics. But Paramount’s acquisition of Warner Bros would be worse.

Here's Greg Bovino lying and saying the US citizen arrested by unidentified ICE agents in MN should have been carrying "immigrantion documents per the INA", which is FALSE.

The INA (Immigration and Nationality Act) does NOT require U.S. citizens to carry proof of citizenship.
