“It remains notable that DOGE hasn’t so much as hinted about doing something about overpayments to Medicare Advantage plans run by private insurers, which we know are costing taxpayers tens of billions a year.”

T**** shows his true colors

This year democracy is on the ballot, and if we are to save it, we must vote against authoritarianism.

Here Trump helpfully reminds us that the alternative is never having the chance to vote again.

@niketasays Organize and turn out the vote next year. No one can afford to stay home if we want the republic to survive.

I’ll end here with a few video explainers for you I & my team got to produce with @TeenVogue & @truthout.

First up: Violence Interruption. "It's foolish to believe police can stop violence. They respond. Not prevent."

What is it? Watch and learn:

[Scott Hechinger @ScottHech]

I told her not to feel bad! That most people are asleep, & blocked by a lifetime combination of fear & propaganda from seeing this most obvious truth:

If policing were the solution to public health & safety, we’d be the safest society in the history of the world.

[Scott Hechinger @ScottHech]

For the last half century, the public’s basic intuitions about crime & punishment & what it will take to achieve health & safety has been controlled by a police PR machine amplified by a willing media.

They use fear to keep us wedded to the status quo. To what we know.

INVESTIGATION: The Chicago Housing Authority is supposed to provide affordable homes for those in need. But the agency has nearly 500 scattered-site units that are vacant — many causing problems for their neighbors. https://t.co/nLTyDj1Azd via @BlockClubCHI
