If you are in the federal government, I wrote about how you can actively resist Trump from within.

The most important thing? Do not quit. Make them fire you.

We have DEI because we have racism. DEI didn’t stop White people from getting anything. It just helped others to have a chance to get something they were qualified to have.

Twitter rn is proof that the male loneliness epidemic is a scam.
A hoax.
A ruse.
These men are cruel, belittling, petty, mean, and proudly abusive to women.
They aren't lonely.
They are evil.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. 💙

A bill to break up UnitedHealth, CVS, Cigna and more has been introduced by a bipartisan group of U.S. senators and representatives.

The legislation would force insurers to sell their pharmacy businesses.

It aims to combat PBMs, pharma middlemen who drive up costs.

That is intentional. We say ACAB because cops always protect capital, at our expense

This we need
Two senators have introduced a constitutional amendment that would establish term limits for Supreme Court justices, a long-shot escalation of the congressional effort to overhaul the nation’s highest court amid ethics scandals and sinking public approval.
Supreme Court term-limits amendment proposed by Sens. Manchin, Welch
The long-shot proposal by Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vermont) and outgoing Sen. Joe Manchin III (I-West Virginia) would impose 18-year term limits on new justices.

I bet not a single executive or board member of any US “healthcare” company took yesterday’s events to heart in terms of what their industry is: a completely unnecessary hurdle between patient and care. They’re worried about being next. Yeah, tough, most of us worry about being their next victim.

“Health Insurance was not always ‘for profit’. That started during Reagan, not surprisingly, when Blue Cross went from ‘not for profit’ to ‘for profit’. That's when insurance went from a means to process medical claims to a system to withhold care and let people die for profits.” -Henry Rosenberg

Nearly every billionaire is a soft, doughy little mound of ghost white skin that's never seen a minute of struggle or exercise. Point is they would probably be tender and delicious.

just from a folklore point of view, "attractive hooded man kills billionaire head of hated business with bullets inscribed with political slogans and then vanishes" is narratively breathtaking

On the one side you have the pundit and consultant class shaking their finger at you for laughing in relief that one evil man departed this earth. On the other, nurses remembering the patients they loved who died when they hit their lifetime max insurance benefit.
