Japanese fan gets interviewed before his teamโs World Cup match. He says he doesnโt really speak English. This is perfect. Iโm loving all the fans who have come here for the World Cup and the content they are producing. Itโs fantastic.
Sharp Edge:The Ugly Indian.
Why have Indian tourists become so unwelcome abroad? Is it because we display no consideration for local sensibilities? Is it because we can be loud & pushy? Is it because we are aggressive & arrogant (especially in Asia?)

Large hospital systems are profiting off Medicare rules that pay them more for the same service than independent practices.
That means a senior in my district can pay MORE for an X-ray at a hospital than at a local doctorโs office -- and the hospital makes MORE too.
Today I asked hospital system CEOs a simple question: should we equalize payments to lower costs and expand access? They said no.
Americans deserve affordable care, not a system that rewards higher prices.
โI need someone to explain to me like I am 5 years old how it makes sense that a literal doctorโฆ prescribed my son a life saving medication that he needs for a diagnosis that he has received, and my insurance gets to say, โNo he does notโ.โ
Why is this even allowed???? ๐ค
Elon Musk knew that President Trump was in the Epstein Files and he kept quiet until today -- this raises serious questions about Musk's ethics and integrity.
For this reason, we've sold all our $TSLA shares and will not invest in his companies again.
Integrity > money.

When a company, in this case United Healthcare, attacks its critics, the probability that it has committed fraud or is guilty of a crime increases substantially. This morning the DOJ announced an investigation into UNHโs Medicare billing practices. The DOJ did not do this lightly.
My psychological short here is paying off and I would avoid this stock. When you find two cockroaches, it is almost a certainty that there are many more. And a half a trillion market cap for a health insurer makes no sense. I expect that there are many whistleblowers who have shared their work with the government and that more will be inspired to do so.
And yes, UNH still has not apologized to @EPotterMD.
@RepGregMurphy@GmOrr9000 This isn't the solution Dr. Murphy. Give them (or restore) the proper incentives, and they'll practice full time for 40 years much like some of our parents did.
