Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.

Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.

The solution: Medicare for All.

It wasn't enough to run our Constitution through a shredder & weaponize our military against citizens. Without approval, Trump is now tearing down the walls of the White House - the PEOPLE's House!

His hatred and lack of respect for this nation have no bounds.

Today, Mayor of Mob Town and the mob's best fluffer, DelDuca, stood with Ford in Mob Town to rail against speed cameras.

Speed cameras he brought in, as Minister of Transportation, where he also oversaw the wholesale transfer of Metrolinx to the mob.

FCC boss Brendan Carr now says his 'easy way or the hard way' comments about Jimmy Kimmel weren’t meant as a threat to pull licenses if Disney didn’t suspend him.

Yes, they were you fascist fuck!

House Speaker Mike Johnson: "At the end of the day, the problem is not guns, okay?"

Fox's Dana Perino: "Do you think there has to be some sort of accountability on the transgender front?"

Johnson: "I think so. It's a common denominator... Lawmakers and policymakers need to look at that carefully."

The corporatization of universities has been a disaster.
👏 STOP 👏 TREATING 👏 UNIVERSITIES 👏 AS 👏 A 👏 BUSINESS 👏

Provosts/chancelors/etc should be members of the academic community and paid as such.

👏 STOP 👏 PAYING 👏 HIGHER 👏 EDUCATION 👏 BUREAUCRATS 👏 LIKE 👏 THEY 👏 ARE 👏 CEOS 👏

More of the same from Edinburgh University

Nothing screams ‘financial crisis’ like a VC on £420k salary paired with a redundancy scheme

Still £24m was saved through frozen promotions & severance — enough to keep senior management's pay deals nicely cushioned
