Maybe I’m old fashioned, but it seems like the wife of a sitting Supreme Court Justice raising over half a million dollars to wage a culture war on half the country should be the leading story everywhere.

It should also be disqualifying for her husband to sit on *the* Court.

@RebekahWriter You don't take testosterone for mental illness. That may explain a lot about MTG.

The distress is caused by hatefull people like MTG.

@pacergirl @NoLieWithBTC @evanvucci Stop trying to think.

Doctors at a major US insurance company deny tens of thousands of claims a month without even looking at patients’ files.

“We literally click & submit,” a former Cigna doctor told @ProPublica & @Capitol_Forum. “It takes all of 10 seconds to do 50 at a time.”

The inside story 🧵

Medically Necessary (How insurance denies claims in batches without even looking at patient records because so few appeal, it gold plates their parachutes.)

In spring cleaning mode? Don't forget to vacuum your smoke alarms! #DYK that airborne dust, contaminants and 🕷️'s can interfere w/ a smoke alarm’s ability to detect smoke? They can also be the cause of false alarms. (you know--those 3 am wake up calls?) #SpringCleaning #homedecor

@ImSpeaking13 We are attending in drag, right?

@JoJoFromJerz Maybe you could include your address so Russian soldiers could visit you when they encroach on US soil. L

In the 1950s, when I was a child, CEOs made about 20x more than the average worker.

In the 1980s when I was mayor of Burlington, CEOs made 42x more.

In 2000, when I was in the House, CEOs made about 120x more.

Today, they're making almost 400x more.

Unacceptable.

@wusa9 Why do you feel the need to show syringes for this story? Please stop perpetuating stigma. Stigma costs lives, non-stigmatizing language & graphics cost you nothing.

I have heard from many constituents who are concerned about public safety in our community. That is why I am hosting a Public Safety Town Hall on Wednesday, March 22 at 7PM at the Upcounty Regional Services Center. I will be joined by representatives from the MCPD. See you then!

1 day from the release of my recommended operating budget for FY24 and plan for projects through 2029. This budget is very supportive of the education requests made by @MCPS and will also support community health, public safety, affordable housing, and fighting climate change.
