@Acyn $5.3 Trillion of the US GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is in healthcare. About %50, $2.6 Trillion flows through the Government. No wonder it’s such a hot area for fraud.
“Why do you rob banks?”
“Because that’s where the money is.”
Watching 60 Minutes: This new editorial team is tearing the *news* a new one with life changing interviews with Thimothe Chalomet, Jamie Lee-Curtis and Kate Winslet. This could result in regime change without shots being fired. (DHS? Not much going on there for the news).
@ErikSperling@atrupar@grok Adrenochrome: the Epstein files will help explain what that means. RFK Jr will probably add it to the vaccination lists for Oligarchs. It extends life for that extra term in office (or 3). Right @grok?
@NormOrnstein And he’s the leader of a group of religious extremist set on replacing democracy with theocracy. Like Bill Barr they see him as a convenience to achieve their ultimate aims: a useful idiot. Barr plays to vote for him to get his team back in charge at DOJ, State and Education.
@StevenBeschloss There is no bottom. The GOP is following Trump’s lead and he will never cede an inch of territory. So, buckle in and hope the courts can hold him accountable and provide the required consequences for his shameless pathologies. The cornered rat has no options in the rat’s mind.
@Scobleizer Robert: isn’t it nice to have a garage that tourists can visit and get that SV Entrepreneur feeling? Bill and Dave are as good an example as Andy Fairchild for putting transistors to work making products. Out of HP you get Woz and Apple… it’s a good story.
@JohnCleese One thing seems certain... his management of Twitter will not lead to a profitable "product". "My Pillow" can't cover $44B in debt. That takes a government subsidy like Tesla got.
@MuellerSheWrote After 2 highly partisan attempts at Impeachment, I have no confidence that Congress can regulate it's members based on actual evidence. Statesmanship is an undervalued quality and even a narrow majority doesn't seem to help in many cases. Grid lock and closed ranks.
@StevenBeschloss Hopefully, he trains *most* people to recognize the personality (disorder) type and not be fooled again by another congenital liar and conman. They seem convincing but dangerous.
@MuellerSheWrote It sounds like a business opportunity: $20/month for personal curated *news* alarms? I know I pay $36/year for Daily News, Indepth weekly details on on-going Trump related legal actions, Weekly reports on "Jack Smith News" and all without commercial interruptions. Great deal.
@podesta_lesley @elonmusk It is quite likely that Elon *really* needs to get back to his profitable businesses before they loose too much money because he's settling scores with liberals on Twitter. Someone to just raise morale for the remaining employees would be a nice Xmas "bonus".
@Scobleizer I don't think that's right. He spent $44B to insure alt-right stars could get back on Twitter: he's trying to save mankind (in his own terms, not mine.) The event that pushed him over the line was shutting down "BabylonBee". He's offended by "woke" social justice and the ne
@caslernoel@elonmusk And the terrible reality that you can never repair: "If I was female my father would have cuddled with me at night. Life is not fair."
@profgalloway Elon's agenda has been stated by many in recent times: Steve Bannon, Bill Barr, Stephen Miller come to mind. "Saving the civilized world." Trump was a tool for protecting "White Christian dominance". Discuss. It explains so much about the new right coalition. A fear of the other.
