I mean, I'm glad a billionaire is now saying this thing I have been saying in public for literally 35 years ...
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.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Reminder that the estimated cost of extending the Trump tax cuts is at least $5 trillion — more than twice the amount DOGE originally stated it would cut in “wasteful” government spending.
Republicans gear up for the coming battle over $5 trillion tax cut's costs
Republicans are united on extending the 2017 tax cuts, but at odds on how to offset the cost.

Honestly, I don’t see how fact-checking stops free speech.

If anything, it protects it by keeping conversations grounded in truth.

Without it, lies spread like wildfire, and that’s not free speech—it’s chaos.

Prioritizing truth doesn’t silence anyone; it just keeps the dialogue real.💯

I was interviewed at CES this morning. We mentioned that consumers will decide whether they want to be on a platform that is “unfiltered free speech “ or “ moderated”. I mentioned that I loved @bsky.app , and spontaneously people started clapping 🔥.

Respect to @anntelnaes.bsky.social for quitting the Washington Post due to censorship over her on-point cartoon. More of this from artists and writers, please. Don't obey in advance, especially to the broligarchy.

I hope there will be more people at Jimmy Carter's funeral than there will be at Trump's inauguration.

Can you see to that, God? Please?

70% of Americans who receive food stamps and Medicaid work full time, with Walmart one of the worst offenders as the country’s single largest employer.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to subsidize corporations who get away with paying poverty wages, especially not while raking in record profits.
Walmart Is Still Putting Ebenezer Scrooge to Shame
Infamous for its starvation wages, Walmart just posted staggering first-quarter profits. The surge is a result of its strategic shift toward catering to affluent shoppers while its full-time workers c...
