What possible explanation could there be for this, other than making the conditions and suffering of Palestinians even more horrific and accelerating the genocide?

If you're a Democrat, you're a sucker if you imagine this agency has anything to do with immigration. It is--and aspires to be!--a fascist paramilitary goon squad. You should start saying so and lay the groundwork for starving it of funding when you take power

My overall point with this thread was- if Direct Primary Care becomes popular with healthy folks, which it seems like it’s picking up steam, doesn’t that kind of dismantle the whole idea of the ACA/insurance system anyway, giving a win to the Republican vision of healthcare in the US?
gingerkap23.bsky.social Blanche Devereaux II @gingerkap23.bsky.social · 2d
I saw a video about Direct Primary Care, which is really most appropriate for overall healthy people it sounds like. But my question is; isn’t that essentially what the republicans want us to do? To just pay to doctors directly and if something catastrophic happens, oh well?

Virginia Heffernan wrote this shortly after the 2016 election and it still holds true
THIS is what makes my head spin: The president is not a moral figure in any idiom, any land, any culture, any subculture. I'm not talking about the liberal enlightenment that would make him want the country to take care of the poor and sick. I mean he has no Republican values either. He has no honor among thieves, no cosa nostra loyalty, no Southern code against cheating or lying, none of the openness of New York, rectitude of Boston, expressiveness and kindness of California, no evangelical family values, no Protestant work ethic. No Catholic moral seriousness, no sense of contrition or gratitude. No Jewish moral and intellectual precision, sense of history. He doesn't care about the life of the mind OR the life of the senses. He is not mandarin, not committed to inquiry or justice, not hospitable. He is not proper. He is not a bon vivant who loves to eat, drink, laugh. There's nothing he would die for - not American values, obviously, but not the land of Russia or his wife or young son. He has some hollow success creeds from Norman Vincent Peale, but Peale was obsessed with fair-dealing and a Presbyterian pastor; Trump has no fairness or piety. He's not sentimental; no affection for dogs or babies. No love for mothers, "the common man"" veterans. He has no sense of military valor, and is openly a coward about war. He would have sorely lacked the pagan beauty and capacity to fight required in ancient Greece. He doesn't care about his wife or wives; he is a philanderer but he's not a romantic hero with great love for women and sex. He commands loyalty and labor from his children not because he loves them, even; he seems almost to hate them — and if one of them slipped it would be terrifying. He does no philanthropy. He doesn't - in a more secular key - even seem to have a sense of his enlightened self-interest enough to shake Angela Merkel's hand. Doesn't even affect a love for the arts, like most rich New Yorkers. He doesn't live and die by aesthetics and health practices like some fascists; he's very ugly and barely mammalian. Am I missing an obscure moral system to which he so much as nods? Also are there other people, living or dead, like him?

When "confused" Trump supporters say "I thought he was just gonna deport the criminals" you need to remember we arent talking about criminals as a legal term. We are talking about criminals as a *social* classification.

Saw this tidbit on TikTok: every year, the world’s elite class spends New Years on St Barts island (which is right across the water from Epstein Island fyi). The purple triangles represent all the billionaires and their superyachts. All in one place. Interesting, huh?

A maternity ward doctor donated his own blood during surgery to keep a pregnant patient alive.

One woman gained fewer than 10 pounds over her entire pregnancy.

Another collapsed and had seizures during labor.

Also, while the flu strain that is going around right now isn’t in the current vaccine, they still say that getting the flu vaccine lessens symptoms and duration of all the new strain too. So def get the vaccine and have your kids get it too 💙

If you haven’t been masking up lately, now would be a great time to restart.

This is how far removed Trump is from reality. He obviously was never in the loop or circle of the rich, powerful and upright. He would have known but he didn’t. The Kennedy Family will never be taken down by a Trump. Shame on you RFK Jr.

More out of touch rhetoric coming out of the White House.

My health insurance premium just went up over $1000 per month. A one time refund of $1K-$2K is not “gignatic”.
