Fauci spent his life, decades, saving lives; you on the other hand, in just a few months in government helped ended 100s of thousands of lives around the world and some estimates suggest the death toll could be in the millions. Not sure how you sleep at night.
In 2018, @elonmusk paid $0 in federal income taxes. Most Americans pay 14%+ of their income.
He pays the same into Social Security as someone making $184.5K — a sum he made just 15 minutes after midnight on New Year’s Eve.
Trillionaires shouldn’t exist in a moral society.
The Trump administration is quietly moving to change the Affordable Care Act to let health insurers offer people loans to pay for their care.
Deep in a document over 1,000 pages long about how the Affordable Care Act market will operate next year, the administration suggests that insurers consider offering loans to cash-strapped customers.
Under this approach, people who develop a costly disease or need unexpected emergency care would turn to their health insurer for loans.
A third of American households already have medical debt, and this approach would mean even more debt that patients owe to their health insurance companies.
The insurers, who already make billions, would stand to make even more.

The details about the Tate brothers in this @newyorker profile are as sick as anything you will ever read. They are rapists, pornographers, traffickers - and heroes to the "conservative" MAGA movement

Ossoff: American politics is coin-operated. Money goes in, favors come out, and that's why spectacular wealth buys an ever-greater share of power over our national affairs, while the mere citizen is treated with contempt.
Citizens United was the most destructive court decision in modern American history. It's unleashed a flood of secret money, corporate money, billionaire money on both sides.
🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) said in a yet-to-be-published proposed rule Friday that it’s drawing up plans to radically crack down on mail voting by sending ballots only to voters who are registered with the federal government. https://t.co/CtdWu9VyhI
"In the end, American consumers paid $159 billion in temporary national sales taxes for which most will never be reimbursed a penny. And rather than those taxes being used by the federal government to, say, repave roads or build bridges, most of the money will instead provide corporate windfalls." https://t.co/gkdRAzPBz5
The timeline deserves to be read in sequence.
2020: Wisconsin results certified. Biden wins the state.
2021 through 2025: Multiple investigations and audits find no widespread fraud.
May 2026: FBI summons Wisconsin Elections Commission deputy administrator. He debunks false claims directly to agents.
May 2026: FBI seeks to question Milwaukee cops who were working near polling sites on Election Night 2020.
May 24, 2026: Federal judge denies DOJ’s private voter registration records request. Eight states now. Eight denials.
The investigation continues. The cops being summoned did their jobs five and a half years ago. The officials being questioned certified results courts have repeatedly upheld.
Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson: Trump is “deploying federal law enforcement to alter reality.”
Eight federal judges have now declined the underlying premise in writing.
Retweet if you think more people need to know that Trump's Department of Justice is in talks to settle Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS.
We don't get the sense that many people even know this lawsuit is a thing...and they really should.
JUST IN: DHS is closing the office responsible for investigating misconduct and abuse in the immigration detention system, per an email obtained by HuffPost. https://t.co/xwz0RhrOVg
These are just a few excerpts from my piece on Trump's first 15 months in his second term. The entire list, when you sit down and look at it, is so genuinely astounding I wasn't sure how to even present it to my audience. But here it is: https://t.co/a1DdwHmzJL
A truck loaded with thousands of copies of Roget's Thesaurus spilled its load leaving New York.
Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, surprised, dumbfounded, flabbergasted, confounded, astonished, and numbed.
We once had a shared culture. Michael Jackson’s moonwalk was seen live by 33 million people. The MASH finale was viewed by 105 million. The Wizard of Oz and The Ten Commandments aired on TV annually. The death of the monoculture has been calamitous for cultural literacy.
