@MargieMarron2 @ChrisCuomo https://t.co/qlAI00wMU0 Maybe this is helpful. By Tim Waltz in the Journal today. He outlines what he believes the data shows in regards to your question.

My guess would be that it was actually train 1226 that had mechanical issues, not train 1224. If so, it is very concerning that Metras train tracking and alert system is able to identify and communicate the wrong train. Further, that internal Metra information systems also reflect the wrong information, given your initial reply.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@Metra Where is train 1226? Clarendon Hills to Lagrange all waiting for a train that never came. No announcement, only train 1224 with an alert.

P.s. constant mechanical issues on this line with trains breaking down frequently.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@Metra 1226 did not stop at West Hinsdale, I know because myself and other riders have been waiting since well before it was due. Based on the large amounts of people trying to get on the 1234, it also did not make any west suburb stops.

@lawler4ny Guy, you failed the assignment we gave you.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@lawler4ny I was encouraged after seeing you on Cuomo, thinking here’s a no bs Republican that center left can get on board with. But you’re just playing all the same games they all play. It’s a no for me dawg…

How well capitalized a market participant may be is beside the point. Pence is articulating that when tariffs are applied and revenue is created, those fees are paid by the last participant in the value chain - the consumer.

You are advocating for behavior change given that reality. While admirable, it does not invalidate what Pence is saying here.

Lastly, I’ll bite. Rare earth magnets needed for extremely valuable US exports that support our GDP.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@WDelmasH @Ronxyz00 The fact that tariff revenue is being collected shows the real world requirements of having no choice but to participate.

While your position is applicable for some scenarios, it is not applicable for others, which then leaves Pence's argument intact.

@SpencerHakimian I can't understand why Israel would ever be ok with settling for anything less than substantial, long term assurance of nuclear program degradation.

Especially given these extraordinary circumstances of a diminished Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, Syria, and Iran itself.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@TexasOncologist @typesfast Yeah, I think that statement sounds right. Seems as though this may be one of the few admins where we might see EO's coming out that run counter to what you described.

Time will tell! 😅

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@TexasOncologist @typesfast Executive Orders can be literally anything. If it exists in opposition to existing law, it will be challenged in the courts.

This is literally what's been happening at scale over the 7 months for those paying attention.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@SpencerHakimian The challenge is not IQ, it’s cognitive bias.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@SwirvithanLG @HedgieMarkets Just because you don’t understand it, doesn’t mean it’s propaganda.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@RepDonBacon @TaurusWitch2010 To be fair, if it's struggled for years, increasing uncompensated care would create increased risk of insolvency.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@RepDonBacon I think you're a good leader, but what was done today will close a lot of facilities that support the safety net of care across the US. Providers have already modeled the impact of the cuts and right now, today, are putting those plans to mitigate risk into action.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@ChrisCuomo Some icing for that cake.

@HedgieMarkets Solid readout 🦔. Sounds like youre saying the economy is turning a bit… prickly…

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

Medicaid itself isn’t the story.
As people lose access, they will continue to get sick and injured, visiting facilities for treatment. For the facility, this all converts to uncompensated care, pushing them into the red. The government is effectively transferring its risk to individual hospitals who won’t be able to burden it and will face closure.

[Scotty J @that_scottyj]

@SpencerHakimian I think I heard that's Biden's economy.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
