5/There's also this myth that Americans overuse health care so it needs to cost more to discourage use. We don’t visit doctors more, stay in hospitals longer, or get more procedures than other countries. The real driver of high costs is corporate profit-seekers finding ways to bill for more services

If they end ACA subsidies millions will lose health ins & 1000s will die in US. GOP will claim that’s hyperbole. They said the same about ending USAID & 600k people including 400k kids are dead thanks to musk & Trump scuttling USAID and GOP not stopping them. Bernie is right, it’s not funny.

Trump has zero respect for our country or it's history
President began demolishing the East Wing of the WH to build there his $200M+ ballroom.
East Wing was built in 1942 during the presidency of FDR. It was constructed to cover the bunker that he used during WWII and the President's Emergency Operations Center.
