This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.

shared costs = less costs for everyone.
Markwayne Mullin on healthcare: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."

As long as we continue to allow health insurance companies to determine our treatments, we are all slaves to the system.
Republicans want the market to solve the issue. They have had 50 years to do that and did not.
Why? Profit over people.

It was always about getting access to the government DATA. ALWAYS
Pretty sure DOGE accomplished exactly what it set out to do.
It's real purpose was to disable every oversight to elon's fucking ambitions.
Payment from trump for stealing an election.

Masked ICE GOONS have been using facial recognition technology without consent to capture images of young men for identity and citizenship verification. This technology is fueling a surveillance state that targets Black and Brown communities, silences dissent, and free speech.

P2025 has existed since 1981 as the Mandate for Leadership by Heritage. It was a 40+ year effort. Please don’t fall for any ideas that this will be over in three more years. They have succeeded in stealing all branches of government. No election outcome is going to change that. Now WE plan longterm.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
