Want to see advertisers lose MILLIONS this Sunday? A record-setting low for viewers during the Super Bowl would do that.

It is truly wild that it is estimated that more than 20 million people died of Covid and the prevailing vibe is that the world overreacted. That is an astonishing toll! More people died of Covid in the US than in the Civil War. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...
5 years after it appeared, things we know and still don't know about COVID
Five years after the virus that causes COVID emerged in China it still holds some mysteries.

🔥🔥A 2021 study found that Medicaid expansion as part of the ACA led to a substantial reduction in mortality, primarily driven by reductions in disease-related deaths. A 2018 study in the Journal of Political Economy found that, Medicaid reduced infant and child mortality since the 1960s and 1970s.🔥🔥

Merry Christmas, everyone, even Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah @regenceutah.bsky.social, who is currently denying coverage of a cancer drug for my wife's breast cancer treatment. You are the Scrooge/Grinch in this Christmas story. But you can have a change of heart. You can be different. 💗

Trying to imagine pitching this movie 50 years ago:
“So this guy from apartheid goes to America and cons his way to collecting half a trillion dollars and buys a President with it. Then he starts to order Congress around from his computer which is actually a portable telephone.”

Letting the richest man in the world (who hasn't done a hard days work in his life) decide which Americans get the money that they already worked their whole lives to earn so they could eat and have healthcare after breaking their bodies for decades
Our Executive Director @alaw202.bsky.social is outside the first meeting of the House DOGE Caucus, Elon Musk's slash and burn commission.

He is asking Caucus members if they will keep Trump's promise not to cut Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid.

Most of them are refusing to answer.

@thisistheread.com not that we need more reasons to hate insurance but periodically some insurers will review claims they’ve already paid and recoup the money back from doctor’s offices. I worked for a company that had a whole department dedicated to it called provider payment integrity (the irony)

CEO of UnitedHealthcare is killed.

Legacy media will not report on:

How many die because the insurance delayed treatment?

How many die because they get denied?

How many go bankrupt because of high copays?

Don't be distracted by the chaos. Trump’s 2nd term agenda will be more calculated than his 1st.

He's following the playbook of Hungary’s Viktor Orbán to crush democracy, silence dissent & entrench his own power.

Those who lived it say there’s a window to act now. Here’s how we fight back. ⬇️
