Voters in #VA8 have struggled to afford rent, groceries, and healthcare for far too long.
"If elected, Seifeldein said his agenda would be to address the cost of living, implement a universal Medicare-for-all initiative and lower housing prices."

She voted to double the premiums of 24 million Americans, and she absolutely knew that would be the result. That’s why she can’t handle being heckled (by her daughter’s primary opponent) even passably.
@SenatorShaheen:
I suffered a severe spinal injury at age 15. My spinal cord had to be rebundled, and I had 8 rods and 4 screws put in my back. Four years later, one of the rods in my back snapped, and I had to have another major surgery. I developed arachnoiditis, a chronic pain condition, that I will live with for the rest of my life due to surgery complications.
The first photo shows my spine. The second represents yours. I will never back down when it comes to healthcare. #NHPolitics #NH01
If every single developed nation in the world can make universal healthcare work, maybe it's not the system that's complex, but our refusal to challenge big pharma and insurance giants.
Democrats must turn their good intentions into better results. Nobody will want Democrats leading the government if they don’t believe we can deliver on our promises.
We should take Ezra Klein’s message seriously if we are going to be a party people want in charge. It’s long past time to streamline regulations to make it easier to build housing, infrastructure, and energy resources.
Procedures are not more important than reducing high costs currently making it impossible for working Americans to live comfortably.
I was a co-chair on @BernieSanders' campaign. This "gotcha" is flat-out false. The $1.5M in "pharma dollars" came from everyday workers in the industry who were fed up with the system, not CEOs or super PACs fighting to preserve it.
3rd and 4th place for the 2024 cycle were also unseated:
3. Sen. @jontester (D-MT) $401,885
4. Sen. @SherrodBrown (D-OH) $372,314
5th place goes to Rep. Scott Peters (D) #CA50 who collected >$350,000 from big pharma this cycle.
🏷️ @ScottPetersCA50@RepScottPeters
Rep. Brett Guthrie (R) #KY02 collected more than half a million dollars from big pharma in the 2024 election cycle.
Only @SenBobCasey (D-PA) collected more this cycle ($520,776) but he lost his re-election campaign.

@RitchieTorres How was Ritchie Torres able to accept $150,000 in donations from Ronn Torossian, a member of Kahàne Chaï which is listed as a Specialty Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) group by the State Department?

CAN LAWMAKERS ACCEPT CAMPAIGN DONATIONS FROM FORMER MEMBER OF TERRØRIST ORG?
How was Ritchie Torres able to accept $150K in donations from Ronn Torossian if he was a member of Kahàne Chaï which is listed as a Specialty Designated Global Terrørist (SDGT) group by the State Dept?
A pharma lobbyist will be the next staff director of the Energy and Commerce Committee, picked by its new chair Rep. Brett Guthrie, who is the top recipient of pharma industry donations among the House GOP.

This woman directly “worked for UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the Medicare department at UnitedHealthcare for almost 10 years”
She compiled a list of the top 5 wildest things she saw working for UnitedHealthcare
1) They terminated a guy on my team. The next morning he snapped and unalived two news anchors on air and then was neutralized about three minutes from our call center because he was coming to finish us off and UnitedHealthcare did not increase security, police presence, offer us any resources, all they did was pull us into a meeting to threaten us that if we spoke to the media that we would have be terminated and possibly face legal ramifications. Kinda like they did with the CEO. They went right on with their meeting. No empathy, no compassion, no nothing”
She goes over 4 other stories just as insane as this one
This is a PERFECT example of how American Healthcare Companies really operate. This is a rare inside look at the industry.
NEW: PhRMA funneled millions of dollars to dark money groups last year, according to its latest tax return, as the lobbying group pushes to repeal—or delay—drug pricing reforms.

Meet your first *fossil fool* of the primary season 🤡
Jeff Yass, a republican pro-oil billionaire just burned $800,000 to prop up @PatelForPA only to lose to @SummerForPA by a landslide ��
