If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.

Americans are fed up with skyrocketing premiums, deductibles and copays - blatant insurer greed.

A majority now support #MedicareForAll - universal healthcare, lower costs and an end to insurance abuses.

Healthcare should be a right, not a bad scam.

Momentum Is Building for Medicare for All
As private health insurers jack up premiums for tens of millions, a majority of Americans now want Medicare for All — even if it entails eliminating private health insurers and raising taxes.

As the silly season plays nothing but Christmas music, it's time to play a beautifully curated #xclub playlist

Solve your #Whamageddon fears, & avoid Mariah Carey by listening to #xclub songs.

Albanese & his cabinet have, collectively, spent most of their adult life in service to @australianlabor.bsky.social
Their lack of commercial acumen & limited real life experience in mainstream workforce has made them insular & impressionable to lobbyists…as with Internet access reforms

Idealistic BS! Ain't gonna happen, no way never. Life isn't like that.

But how about making sure that no child lives in poverty, and that they can reach their full potential with free education through to university/TAFE graduation. You -can- actually do that.

I have said it before, & I’ll say it again: Sarah Hanson Young is worth her weight in gold.

Lock up all of the mealy mouthed politicians, bureaucrats, & business leaders who think making money & destroying environments should be allowed to take precedence over our continued existence on the planet.
Oh those pesky blocky Greens
They (Labor) don’t know and don’t truly GAF as long as ‘business’ is happy 😔

If any Republicans taking August off are going to hold town halls, you all have my permission to use this audio I recorded of Katie Johnson’s testimony when you step up to the podium to ask them why they’re covering for #PedoTrump 🤬

#ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
Please share with your Reps because I can't tag all of Congress

It's my recording of Katie Johnson's testimony & it won't be a part of the "good parts version" of #EpsteinFiles that Bondi's going to release

Americans need to HEAR what Trump did 🤬

I call on the Australian government to #RaiseTheRate of all support payments to a living wage.
This would be the single most effective way to lift the productivity, quality of life, and well-being of the whole country.

Until the end of the government shutdown, our campaign will be donating $2,500 a month to a food pantry in the Ninth District.

And to my fellow candidates, I challenge you to do the same:
