Today, a thin-skinned sitting president actually threatened to revoke the citizenship of an American-born citizen because she says things he dislikes. This is ridiculous, and also dangerous. Trump swore to uphold the Constitution, but he seems inclined to violate his oath again and again.
Trump threatens to revoke the citizenship of celebrity critic Rosie O’Donnell
Born in New York, she is no less American than he is.

By nearly every metric, Bidenomics was a roaring success. It would be a mistake to ignore or forget the lessons that can be gleaned from the administration’s robust economic policy.
Bidenomics Was Wildly Successful
The president’s domestic record wasn’t just extraordinary. It might put Democrats back in power in four years.

I’ll be at work, sick tomorrow because my boss says I have to. Sorry if I give you this infection that, per the doctor, I probably caught at work. Just step over me if I faint. TIA

How many people did Thompson's company kill because of denied claims? I suspect it was more than one.

THANK YOU for adding the actual context to this news!!! I was thoroughly disgusted with all the media coverage this morning. I don’t want violence fixing our broken society, but that CEO denied life saving care as part of his job. Isn’t that called a mass murderer?

Cradle-to-grave; mediocre -to-poor healthcare coverage (and expense) being just *one* metric amongst *many* that basically proves the US a lower-tiered, second-world country. More in common with Eastern Europe than the advanced Scandinavian countries.

The writer acts as if what the healthcare industry does to us isn’t violence in its own way. What are we supposed to do? We’ve tried every other damn thing like voting ha ha ha and see where it got us —nowhere

I’m glad the outcome is skewing toward criticism of the state of US healthcare as opposed to the act itself. Let’s keep this momentum going:)

he plans to fire 600 people at NIH and replace them with his own people "on day one" - none of them will be scientists & none of them will have run a national health agency - this will cripple cancer research in this country & it could cost me and many like me our jobs when NIH ceases to function
Trump Picks R.F.K. Jr. to Be Head of Health and Human Services Dept.
Whether the Senate would confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine skeptic who has unorthodox views about medicine, is an open question.

Maybe its ok to cut 75% of federal employees because there are so many of them? No.
We have about the same number of feds as we had in the 1960s. As a percentage of the population, they are at historical lows. (We actually need more employees, esp. younger employees, but good luck recruiting them).

Can someone explain to me why fighting for policies championed 80 years ago by one of the most popular Presidents in our nation’s history make me a “progressive?” Also, pretty sure these are supported by a super majority of voters. Does that mean everyone else should be called regressives?
