Marcus Lemonis, failed CEO, said, "Businesses deserve the chance to succeed. Employees deserve jobs that last. And customers deserve fair prices. California’s system delivers the opposite."

Fixing it: "I failed as CEO to compete in the toughest market."

Prolifers are obsessed with denying health care to people. The most prolife states have the lowest life expectancies. Trump won the bottom 18 states in life expectancy and lost the top 11.

Biggest lie being told by GOP. Every time reporters ask abt the ~15 mil people losing healthcare coverage the GOP cites work requirements. But there aren’t 15 mil people on Medicaid that don’t work or qualify for an exemption. Not close. Hard-working people are going to be left w/out healthcare.

"Mississippi ranked dead last, earning the title of worst state for health care in America. Joining it at the bottom were Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and West Virginia"<--These are the most prolife states, and the GOP's strongest states.

LOL. Cracks me up that CEOs like this guy thought that recognizing their customers was a bad idea.

Immigrants have fewer criminality scores than US citizens. This 🧪 study had to be erased!

So what happens then, people are going on leaking it, what a shame! 🤭
THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens.

The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)
