Who then, in the same breath, claim to love small business. My husband and I each owned small businesses and couldn’t get insurance before ACA.

Or what it was like pre-ACA to be flat-out denied coverage for so-called preexisting conditions - basically having been previously treated for ANYTHING. Not just them not covering that specific condition - refusing ANY coverage.

What a rationale for hiring this fool. From another story..

“A major reason why this deal is happening is The Free Press’ unflinching pro-Israeli stance and Larry Ellison and his son David Ellison’s close ties to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,” Breaker reported this week.

Dum dum thinks he’s not a citizen because he’s from Puerto Rico. I’m sure the admin would prefer Lee Greenwood & Vanilla Ice.

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

Not for us Dems who rely on ACA coverage. Even when reality hits DT voters, they’ll find someone else to blame it on. There’s no winning, only suffering.

The third largest company in the world capitulating without a fight in a move that assists the most brutal part of the Trump regime. I hope employees rise up over this.

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years.

From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

MAGA’s “Voter Fraud” Watchdog Votes in a Swing State. He Doesn’t Live There.

A long paper trail shows that Jack Posobiec casts a ballot in one state and lives in another.

I’ve switched to Duck Duck Go, and opted out of AI searches. Hoping I can continue to do that. Noticed that my last colonoscopy was AI-assisted. Not loving that. (Insert ASSisted jokes here) (Insert insert jokes here)
