Giant health insurers and their middlemen jack up drug costs and drive community pharmacies out of business.
@massago.bsky.social and 38 attorneys general just asked Congress to break these giants up.
I have a bipartisan bill to do just that. Let’s get it done.

During his first term Trump asked if the military could “beat the f*ck out” of protesters
“Crack their skulls”
Or “shoot them in the leg”
He was told it’s unconstitutional
But now-buoyed with a Supreme Court decision which gives him broad immunity
He’s looking for a new way to get his wish

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

If DOGE is a federal agency, it can’t shield its records from the public.
If it’s not an agency, then its tens of millions of dollars in funding weren’t legally allocated and should be returned, some contend.

If 40% of DOGE’s canceled contracts won’t save a dime, what’s Musk really up to?
Sabotage. He’s gutting agencies that enforce environmental rules, worker protections, and media oversight—things he & Trump want gone. Less regulation means more room for misdeeds—we’re the ones who will pay the price.

Sec. Kennedy, you're incorrect. This *is* an unusual year for measles. This year has already passed 8 out of the past 15 years' *annual* counts. And we are only 2.5 months into 2025.
Rather than falsehoods, you should publicly state support for MMR. Today marks the first measles death in 10 years.

Republicans voted to take away your healthcare and food assistance so they can give tax breaks to the billionaires who poured millions of dollars into their election campaigns.
They don’t care about you because they’re paid to answer to them.
