After investing months of time, effort, and resources into Indiana’s redistricting scheme, Trump suffered one of the most humiliating failures of his second term.
Which is why it was hilarious to see him pretend otherwise. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Trump pretends his power-grab flop in Indiana wasn’t humiliating (but it was)
It was one of the most brutal failures of the president’s second term. To hear Trump tell it, this fiasco wasn’t a big deal.

This is the type of thread that only gets written if you're unaware that the VA healthcare system already exists. Or that it provides healthcare for millions of Americans. Or that it consistently generates higher patient satisfaction numbers and better clinical outcomes than the private sector.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.
What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?
Who in the USA gov runs the program?
R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

Well I guess my wife is never coming to the US with me again. 🙃
Also not to be a bummer but um, maybe we should all be wondering why the US has decided to nuke its own tourism industry just now. When all the shutters slam closed at once, it starts looking bad for the people inside.

NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.
Below is the full, mind-blowing list.

The best moment in the History of the Word Caucasian came in a series of Supreme Court cases during the immigration panic of the 1920s.
The Naturalization Act of 1790 said that only "white" people could be naturalized as American citizens, but that only raised questions about what counted as white?

There goes the lucrative industry of international tourism, already fairly wrecked. The US was "the world’s most powerful Travel & Tourism market, contributing a record-breaking $2.36 TN to the nation’s economy last year" said the World Travel & Tourism Council in 2024.
Requiring temporary visitors to surrender five years of social media to the U.S. sends the message that the American commitment to free speech is pretense. This simply is not the behavior of a country confident in its freedoms.
It's a threat to free speech around the world and must be opposed.
