After 8 years trump does not have a healthcare plan. Why? Perhaps he lied about his concept. The GOP wants Americans to die so they can have more. They are not only taking away healthcare, they are coming for your property and bank accounts. Dead people have no rights.

This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong.
I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

The corruption is sickening, and right out in the open.
I thought I had seen it all in some sense in the 15 years I handled corporate fraud cases.
Nope. Staggering what this administration is doing. Just straight bribery (impeachable offense), corruption and grifting.
All of us suffer for it.

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.
Enough to power 23 million homes!
U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

It's been almost three weeks now and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.
