Why aren't Medicaid expansion states discussing using AI to quickly simplify all qualification and requalification requirements that will cost 10m people their coverage ?

Why aren't Dems pushing solutions that blunt many of the obstacles introduced to reduce coverage ?

THE STAKES HAVE NEVER BEEN HIGHER IN AN OFF-YEAR ELECTION

The fight to against Trumpism runs through 2025’s elections for governorships and mayoralties.

Over 7 million Americans are unemployed — the most since 2017. Why it won’t get better anytime soon.
The number of people who said they were unemployed in May jumped to an eight-year high if the pandemic era is excluded, offering clear evidence that jobs have become harder to find.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

The facts are, the ACA saved millions with pre-existing conditions and set standards for care.

But now, more than a decade later, with what we now know, it’s time to take the insurance companies out of the mix.
The subsidies they get are enormous. We don’t need them as middlemen.
