Damn, so the government DOES know how to levy meaningful fines on tech companies, they just choose not to do it when it's for little things like massive crimes
US lawmakers have told Apple and Google to be ready to remove TikTok on January 19

They're facing hundreds of billions of dollars in fines if they don't comply

No women will lead a House committee for the first time in two decades after House Republicans revealed their list of committee leaders for the 119th Congress. No people of color were selected, either.

This is how the Postmaster General reacts when Members of Congress demand accountability.  He’s the reason your prescriptions, paychecks, and bills are late.  Embarrassing.

Pregnancy is considered a pre-existing medical condition if you're already pregnant when you sign up for health insurance.

However, under the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies can't deny coverage or charge more for pre-existing conditions, including pregnancy.

Don’t cut our health care!

Tl;dr on Pete Hegseth, Trump's pick for the Department of Defense:

- Accused of raping a woman. Forced her silence with an NDA.
- Preyed on female staff and attended work events drunk.
- Ran a veterans nonprofit so far into debt they nearly went bankrupt.

This is disqualifying.

Misconstrued? Pete Hegseth has been crystal clear: he doesn't think women in the military belong in combat and now he's trying to cover up his dangerous views.

PBMs have manipulated the market to enrich themselves — hiking up drug costs, cheating employers, and driving small pharmacies out of business.
