Healthcare for profit is evil as it is but "want patients to become consumers" is just despicable.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

A family of four now spends ~ $1,030 a month on groceries — and that’s before rent, mortgage, utilities, insurance, car payments, or childcare. The cost of simply existing in America keeps rising, while wages are aren’t keeping pace with the cost of living.

RIP Trappist monk/mystic, one of my favs, Thomas Merton, died today 1968.

"Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business."

“Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone - we find it with another.”

As Trump bulldozes the way for the A.I. companies that stuff his pockets, the opposition from Republicans and most Dems has been weak - as polls show younger voters are skeptical.

Even @MarshaBlackburn is against federally nullifying states’ ability to regulate them.

He is now and has always been - a psychopath.

The fact that he is now an old psychopath who wields more power than anyone on earth, is our (collective) fault.

It’s on us to stop him.

He’s exactly the asshole that he was thought to be.

Oh sweet baby Jesus in a Buck Rogers unitard, she’s out here bleating about “hate” and “lying,” like she didn’t personally turn those qualities into a business model, a merch pipeline, and a CrossFit-adjacent sermon series.
