Human lives should not depend on gross inequality of wealth status or helter skelter states rights. Single payer or UHC (&sustainable sufficient Social Security/wages) must be constitutionally safeguarded by #fairsharetaxation and protected as #GeneralWelfare under a unified federal democracy.
Roger Marshall on the GOP healthcare plan: "We do need some type of reinsurance pool to take care of the high risk people. We would like to have association healthcare plans so Amazon or Costco, someone like that, could sell health plans across state plans."
#ROBERTS6 must put an immediate stop to the #TrumpRegime’s frivolous lawsuits and countersuits and ridiculous rulings or step down to face judgment of non-sycophant Congress for aiding and abetting this coup against democracy.
So declare #WTP

Did USDOT tell us how many lives we're saving because of lower standards?

No?

Did they tell us how many we'll lose?

SORKIN: Is it appropriate for Trump to ask Larry Ellison to make a new Rush Hour film?

BESSENT: I don't know. The Obamas contract with Netflix, is that appropriate?

SORKIN: My understanding is that came after he was president. That's the distinction

Although there’s no rational evidence for Trump’s dehumanizing #invectivehurlingatSomalians, yet, “it takes a conscious effort to understand this so as not to fall victim to this cognitive bias called the #backfireeffect.” #MisinformationCampaign

Apparently Trump's been napping since his own "Day One economic miracle"
Breaking: The US lost 32,000 jobs in November, far worse than expected.

Small businesses were the hardest hit.

I can't wait for this moment.

However, first we have to overcome their efforts to predetermine election outcomes, their rigging, cheating, gerrymandering, and attempts to eliminate mail-in voting & drop boxes
Oversight Dems are going to be Donald Trump’s worst nightmare.

His Administration may think they can get away with illegal actions, but we’re going to hold them accountable.
