As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do.
They can't keep spewing carbon.
They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying.
They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.

Watching this Congress being sworn in and listening to Mike Johnson speak I’m once again shocked at the self importance of completely mediocre people. I shouldn’t be, but wow...I think I forgot *just* how bad these guys are.

keeping almost everyone in the entire country one or two medical incidents away from family bankruptcy while a few billionaires celebrate their wealth is probably not a formula for social stability

These are the only books I have outwardly displayed on my bookshelf of way too many. You’d think they would be wildly different, and in subject matter they somewhat are, but they are here together on purpose. Kismet. Read @sarahkendzior.bsky.social And act like Fred Rogers when you can.

Imagine that.
The lawsuit claims UnitedHealth illegally denied "elderly patients care owed to them under Medicare Advantage Plans" by deploying an AI model known by the company to have a 90% error rate, overriding determinations made by the patients' physicians.
UnitedHealth uses faulty AI to deny elderly patients medically necessary coverage, lawsuit claims
Families of former beneficiaries claim UnitedHealth's AI system "aggressively" rejected claims for medically necessary expenses.

Did America's most powerful people always exude such loser energy?
Maybe I'm misremembering, but it felt like there was more "I'm great, I worked hard and earned this, you should admire me" and less "I'm a poor little victim, life's so unfair to me, you should be more sympathetic to my plight."

A reminder: the “principles” of the GOP were never real. They were cudgels.
They’ve never actually been fiscally conservative, in favor of small government, or wary of authoritarian overreach. They used all that to limit opponents and gain power for themselves.

40 years into the Reaganites’ abandonment of the public school system, we are exactly where the smart people said we would be. 20th in everything instead of 1st. America is the greatest opportunity squandered in human history.
