Congratulations to Miriam Hospital and Brown University Health for this recognition. Now if only CMS would compensate them fairly, instead of 20% less than Massachusetts and Connecticut.

Thank you Sen Dems for holding this hearing
Former Capitol Police officer: I would love nothing more than to move on from the worst day of my life.
But as current officials attempt to rewrite that day… and pardoned criminals are making runs for office… the true patriots have become "nothing but afterthoughts."

The U.S. spent over $997 BILLION on the Pentagon in 2024.
That's over a THIRD of the entire world’s military spending.
Crazy that we have more than enough money to throw at our bloated war machine but not enough to provide health care or affordable housing.
Our system is broken.

The Women, Peace & Security Initiative contributes to U.S. national security. WPS was authored by then- Rep. Kristi Noem & championed by then-Sen. Marco Rubio. Trump signed it into law. Mr. Hegseth should do his homework.

Nothing.
That's because we have universal healthcare in Canada.

I've been saying it for a little while now and will say it again; we don't have three branches of government right now. We have two real branches (executive and judicial) and a junior varsity branch (legislative) that is acting like it's a smol bean with no power.
THAT is a constitutional crisis.
