Doctors at a major 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.”

I'm just learning that Las Vegas NM and Jackson MS are struggling with securing clean water for their residents. Flint MI has been struggling for...years. This is so unbelievable, that the US (!) isn't able to rectify this. "No money" just seems like an inappropriate response.

This is so true.

This is the psychological balm of racial caste in America: If you’re Black and couldn’t overcome every obstacle to pull yourself up, it’s because you’re lazy and did not want to work hard. If you’re Black and you manage to be successful, it’s because of AA and you didn’t earn it.

Unfortunately. Show and prove.

[[kie.ran] @danblackroyd]

ethos of a lot of white people globally when it comes to Black people is “prove you deserve to live here.” And by “here” they mean Earth. “Prove you deserve to be alive. Show me.” That’s what a lot of y’all are constantly telling us, directly and indirectly. That’s the message.
