After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs.

Worrisome new Reuters report on search for Austin Tice:

“U.S. officials fear that Tice could have been killed during a recent round of Israeli airstrikes. Officials are also concerned that if Tice was being held underground in a cell, he may have run out of breathable air…”

NEW:

@DineshDSouza has issued an apology over his election conspiracy film “2,000 Mules” on his website.

D’Souza admits that the heart of the film - surveillance footage of vote drop boxes supposedly showing illegal “ballot trafficking” - is false and misleading.

EXCLUSIVE: They want to go back to an America before the civil rights movement "ruined everything." They want to kick out legal immigrants even if they became U.S. citizens decades ago. And they want to put women back where they think they belong. https://t.co/Dm3RYemZua

Trump has selected Brendan Carr, “a Republican on the FCC who wrote a chapter on the regulatory agency in the conservative Project 2025 playbook, to be the FCC's chairman.”

Billionaire oligarchs are dumping stocks. Jeff Bezos has sold $12.5 billion of Amazon shares. Warren Buffett has dumped Apple stock and is sitting on $325 billion in cash.

We're likely at the end of the biggest financial bubble in history. They clearly think it's about to pop.

I'm guessing it won't be the billionaires who have to live austerely?

Meanwhile in Russia: Putin's presidential aide Nikolay Patrushev said, "To achieve success in the election, Donald Trump relied on certain forces to which he has corresponding obligations. As a responsible person, he will be obliged to fulfill them."

Never before in its history has humanity built a civilisation that had at its disposal so many different technologies to monitor, measure and predict its own collapse - yet has been so unwilling to do anything about it
