Gosh! Medicare costs are up because of sneaky private insurers. What could be going on with all the other costs associated with private insurance companies providing health care? Do not take away our cost-efficient government healthcare, eh? thehill.com/policy/healt...

I have questions for the Royal Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt:

1. What powers DOES the Supreme Court have?

2. When were you taught that our system, at the Federal level, has three equal branches?

The killing of two Israeli Diplomats in DC. Tragic, not hard to believe. One by-product might be the Regime using it as an excuse to put their military on streets well patrolled by the District's Metropolitan Police Department - MPD must need more funding but use Fed money on them, not soldiers.

South Sudan added to the gulag with Libya, El Salvador. Logical to send terrorists to unstable places and ripe for revolutions? When revolutions succeed new regimes open prison doors. Trump pardoned the J6th gang. Why send these dangerous people to places they could predictably escape from?

@indivisible.org We need big people and big platforms. Elected officials, leaders of causes, clergy, entertainers (maybe) people who are powerful authentic public figures who can draw crowds - on street corners, in big venues, on Blue Sky and all the media that count. Let's find and amplify them.

@indivisible.org We need someone who will represent all of the Democratic Party and those who are like-minded. The only big news Chuck made was his astonishing vote last Friday. Being minority leader in '25 does not mean too much legislatively. But it is a big title and provides a big platform.

@indivisible.org Chuck Schumer has never been the leader of the Democratic Party. He is the minority leader representing Democrats in the U. S. Senator. For the last 50 years has also never had a job outside of government: Harvard Law to NY State Assembly to the House and then the Senate.

EZ Money. Despite the use of simple logic, I am going to post this anyway. Link below. If we build the huge solar array with matching battery system in Washington State we would be able to sell a whole lot more fossil fuel to plenty of chump countries. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/05/b...

Thanks for noticing. If it were not so monstrous this would be irony worthy: Columbia’s 9,000 undergraduate student body is 23%. It has remains one of the most Jewish schools in the UD + Ivy League for decades. There are enough to walk on by. No need to fear the consequences of antisemitism There

More dangerous than Oath Keepers, eh? I hope Columbia and the courts do the right thing and let him stay . . . especially to have the baby stay here and get their constitutional right to citizenship.
