Bernie Sanders: It's not good enough just to extend the ACA credits. We have got to join every major country in the world, guarantee healthcare to all people, and pass a Medicare for All, single payer program.

“I look down at the crashing swell. Alone at the after-party, a kind of honeymoon in hell. I am on the list, a bit of grave misfortune. I am in the New York Post, even worse. The ink is black, the pages yellow. Everything, some kind of lie. What of doubt? Scientists cannot see the soul.”
Sentences From American Canto That Sent Me To The Hospital
I reviewed Olivia Nuzzi's American Canto for Slate. There's far less RFK Jr. in it than you'd expect.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

"Russia would never attack Ireland" -people in my mentions four days ago
Quite breathtaking story - military grade drones at Dublin airport which flew on the path Zelensky's plane took. The drones reached the flight path of his plane exactly the time it should have been there, but just missed it because Zelensky arrived ahead of schedule:
Four unidentified military-style drones breached no-fly zone to target Zelenskyy's arrival in Dublin
Gardaí are investigating whether the drones took off from land in Dublin or from an undetected ship.

Here's a question: has any journalist EVER asked Oprah why the heck she foisted Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz onto the American public? Like, does she even feel bad?
I didn't like him before, but when I saw how "Dr." Phil exploited and treated the late Shelley Duvall, I actually began to loathe him.
McGraw is a greasy, opportunistic, con man asshole.
