Americans pay more for health insurance than anybody pays in other countries in taxes for universal coverage.

The US squanders more in taxes (federal, state, and local) for healthcare (plus all those tax-deductible plans and copays) than it would cost for a well-funded universal Medicare or NHS.

In a shocking twist we all saw coming, the GOP has voted to let the ACA/Obamacare subsidies expire.

People will die without insurance, but that's a risk pro-life Republicans are willing to take.

This is a sad truth about the wealthiest country in the history of the world.
People can’t afford housing and are having to live in their cars.

I know we’ve been talking about the 25th Amendment being invoked for years now, but we should probably be talking about it a lot more and a lot more seriously right now.
Couple of things here:

1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently

2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts"

3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring"

4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

This new Politico poll should stop us all in our tracks!

50% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries, let’s start there. Then add the fact that we have a president who thinks we’re lying about it.

I’m just waiting for the next poll that asks, “Does the president care about people like me?”

And it's going to get worse until GOP lawmakers decide to reimplant their spines and start limiting Trump's powers.

Every time there's a mass shooting:

"We're better than this."

No, we fucking aren't. Otherwise, we'd see a reduction in mass shootings.

But no, 'Muricans would rather jerk off to their arsenal than protect their schoolchildren and citizens.

President Biden spoke a lot about the dignity of work, but if last year's results taught us anything, it's that what the working man actually craves is the humiliation of work. Telling him he's a dumbass who can't do basic tasks. Breathe it in boys, does it hurt just as good as when daddy said it?
Trump: "You can't come in, open up a massive computer chip factory…and think you're going to hire people off an unemployment line to run it. They're going to have to bring thousands of people with them, and I'm going to welcome those people."
