Vote “NO” on Dave Regan & his pet Prop 40. Dave is all about Dave - that’s why he is under investigation & the police, teachers, planned parenthood, building trades & many others all oppose Dave & Prop 40. The evidence is overwhelming it will badly hurt CA! 🇺🇸🧐
Dave Regan, the @SEIU -UHW president and architect of California’s billionaire tax is under two union investigations that substantiated allegations of intimidation, attempted extortion, and a prior physical assault.
He is now facing a federal racketeering suit from health clinics.
The lawsuit alleged that he “instructed SEIU agents to tell Hispanic home care workers that if they did not vote for SEIU, ICE would be called and the workers would be deported.”
It’s always those who rail about such things that prove to be the most hypocritical.

@davebitxbit@MichaelDell This is what makes America great. Imagine the day when every parent & grandparent does the same!! Every child an owner. 🇺🇸🚀
Coronary Calcium CT Scans - not cholesterol tests - should be standard operating procedure for adults over 45. I have tweeted about it extensively and discussed on the @theallinpod E136. Since then I’ve heard incredible stories from 100s of people how this impacted their lives. $100 and 30 mins is all it takes! Now sharing this text w permission from one of my childhood besties on how it impacted him - this one hit close to home:
“Good Morning Fellas, I wanted to give you all an update on my recent medical issues. I had a Cardiac Calcium Score test performed a few months ago and it was off the charts at 460 and triggered an appointment with a cardiologist. I then had a nuclear stress test and echocardiogram, which turned out mostly normal, except for a small area where they thought I might have some blockage. Fortunately, we decided to do a CT angiogram and it revealed that I had two vessels that were 75% blocked. On December 29th, I went in for a heart catheter procedure. Once they were able to evaluate the vessels, I had one artery that was 75% blocked and the other was 90% blocked. I ended up with several heart stents to fix these issues. Everyone kept asking if I had shortness of breath or chest pain. The answer was always NO, because I NEVER had any symptoms. I probably would have had a heart attack or worse within several months if this had gone unchecked. Having the cardiac calcium score test most likely saved my life. Like Gersh says - I urge everyone to have one done immediately. My doctor never recommended doing a Cardiac Calcium Score - they just kept pushing cholesterol medicine to prevent heart issues. I believe that the Medical community should routinely recommend this test, just as they would a colonoscopy or a mammogram for screening purposes. Hospitals in my area charge $50 at the time of service. I scheduled my own appointment and you don't need a doctor's referral. I
recommend you pass this information on to all of your family and friends so they have the opportunity to have this test done. It could save another life.”

@alexandr_wang@natfriedman Great shout out and well deserved! Brilliant mind - Nat so early to all of this - / unique ability to combine huge arc of AI w investor level details & pixel level product greatness. 💪
Thanks Molly. This is a non-profit moonshot! If we follow the mammogram playbook (40 M annual mammograms) we will save 50k lives a year! Heart attacks are the #1 killer & a dumb way to die. The CAC heart scan at $100 & 15 mins should be the standard of care! 🤍❤️🇺🇸
NEW: Brad Gerstner (@altcap) & Jason Chang (@yoweichang) are trying to turn a $100 CAC heart scan into the “mammogram for the heart.”
At the All-In Summit, Brad brought his mobile coronary artery calcium CT scanner to screen attendees & make the case for preventing heart attacks at scale.
Heart disease kills ~800,000 Americans annually. Brad believes scaling CAC scans to 40M people a year could save 50,000 lives & $20B in government healthcare costs annually.
Rob Goldberg joined us to explain why the mission is deeply personal.
His brother Dave Goldberg, married to Sheryl Sandberg, died suddenly at 47 from undiagnosed heart disease, leaving behind their two young children. Just five months earlier, he had passed a running EKG.
“My brother had passed a running EKG five months before he dropped dead from heart disease, from undiagnosed heart disease.”
Dave’s death became the foundation for Sandberg’s book Option B, co-written with Adam Grant, about grief, resilience & rebuilding life after devastating loss.
Now Brad Gerstner, Rob Goldberg, Jason Chang & the rest of the besties, & the team behind the Center for Heart Attack Prevention want to prevent more families from experiencing the same thing, pushing for earlier detection, broader access to CAC scans & changes to the standard of care.
We go inside the mobile scanner & discuss:
› Why Brad calls CAC scanning the “mammogram for the heart”
› The Goldberg family’s experience with undiagnosed heart disease
› Why cholesterol & traditional testing can miss cardiovascular risk
› What CAC scores actually tell you
› Difference between a calcium CT scan & an angiogram
› Why Brad bought his own mobile scanner
› The “buy one, give one” model for expanding access
› Brad’s push to bring CAC screening to 40 million Americans a year
› How a roughly $100 scan could potentially prevent thousands of premature deaths
› Why Brad believes health data gives people the power to take action
