In January, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services will roll out a pilot program that will use AI to review Medicare patients' requests for care.
Insurers will get rewarded when they deny care.
What could go wrong?

New video! Congo is currently being plundered by all major powers. China (mostly) and the West control the brutal mining trade in Congo, while Rwanda and M23 are carving up the East to steal minerals and ship them off to the European Union. The world is silent because this is good for business

blatantly a violation of both the rules on Congress solely having the power to collect taxes, duties, excises, and so forth and also that such a new collection of federal revenue must originate as a bill in the House of Representatives, Madison wrote a bunch about it, the Constitution still matters?

Jesus, just stop. Democrats are winning now.
And if some voters feel this way about Democrats, a major reason is that THE FUCKING CONSULTANTS KEEP SAYING THE PARTY IS TOO LIBERAL AND OUT OF TOUCH. They incessantly reinforce the stereotype.

something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

Last month, Denny's was bought out by private equity in a $620 million deal.
Now the company is closing 150 locations.

Aid agencies say Israel is still restricting their aid shipments despite ceasefire announced two months ago
Malnutrition continues to take a toll among Gaza’s young despite a ceasefire declared two months ago, with more than 9,000 children hospitalised for acute malnutrition in October alone, according to the latest UN figures.
While the immediate threat of famine has receded for most of the 2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza after the ceasefire announcement on 10 October, the UN and other aid agencies report continuing Israeli restrictions on their humanitarian aid shipments, which they say fall well below the needs of a population weakened and traumatised by two years of war, homelessness and living in flimsy shelters.
