"If you want a democracy to thrive, the idea that voting is a choice is itself an illusion. Voting is about survival, and survival isn’t a choice. It’s an imperative. It’s an instinct.
It’s a tool one uses for self-advancement and self-preservation."--Charles M. Blow

2 on stocks and our economy akin to what his tariffs will soon be causing. Don’t ask me questions here. Only relaying what I’ve heard. I was only interested in someone’s X-rays, not their pocketbooks.

1 Learning a lot about repercussions from Trump’s firing his head of Labor statistics. Foreign investors depend on honest, accurate reporting deciding whether to invest or not. Autocracies have gone bankrupt acting similarly in the past and present. This has a trickle down effect

Hey conservative manly military men, while you were beating your chests over your big win throwing out DEI and trans persons, your president just sacrificed all the gains we veterans made during the entire Cold War. Congrats.

The other news is this was not a show. It was real.

[Gina Forsyth 🌈 @TheGinaForsyth]

What I just saw on TV today was the most disgraceful ambush ever put on by our government. Not in my name! Great TV, my ass! What I just saw was the most depressing TV I've ever watched. This is a show where the bad guys win. Do not recommend. #Zelenskyy #ambush #Notinmyname

When did Trump ask the American people if we wanted to join Putin's side?

Elon: Why do we have laws stopping the president from doing whatever he wants?

The Founding Fathers: That’s literally the point!

Ain’t that right @GOP?

I suppose I'm stating the obvious, but after 11 days in office, it's clear that 47 says he wants to Make America Great, but doesn't want any help from half the people living in it.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch.
President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.

I was also there with the terrible Red Sox teams during those years, but in September 1965, because there were so few fans in the stands, I got to meet Satchel Paige when he warmed up in the bullpen at Fenway with the KC Athletics. Still have the program.

Before polio vaccines, at its peak in the early 1950s, polio paralyzed or killed over 600,000 people globally each year, with up to 35,000 cases of paralysis annually in the United States alone. In 1952, the worst polio outbreak in U.S. history left over 3,000 Americans dead and more than 21,000 paralyzed.

Wow! Luigi Mangione was some smart kid.

An A.I expert who decides to kpuff the CEO of a healthcare company that their A.I program was denying 90% of insurance claims. 🤔

[£eslie K² 🐈🎭⛈🤕 I support Ukraine! @lesherb]

It looks like they caught the United Healthcare CEO murderer. He has an account here and there's an image of an X-Ray on his profile banner that might indicate a connection to healthcare. His name is Luigi Mangione and his account is @PepMangione

Here's hoping that sticks.

[The White House 46 Archived @WhiteHouse46]

Next month, President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act will start capping prescription drug costs for seniors at $2,000 a year – even for expensive cancer drugs that used to cost seniors $14,000 a year.

That’s real breathing room.
