Since United Healthcare killers shells said “delay, deny, depose” & police said he came from GA, I read all lawsuits there on UH unjust claim denials. There are so many, including where UH delayed till plaintiffs ran out of $. Some ended in deaths of kids. suspect list is endless

"Deny, deny, deny. That's how you hit your numbers." Read @propublica's seminal series on how insurance giants like United and Cigna systematically, cruelly—and very, very profitably—deny health coverage every day, at the expense of patients' lives. propublica.org/series/uncove…

.@UHC denied my surgery two days before it was scheduled. I was in the hospital finance office in tears (when I was supposed to be at the hospital doing pre-op stuff). 1/7

Now that the election is over, major media outlets suddenly decided the economy is doing great.

The audit found 15 IRS employees (out of over 80,000) that owed taxes
“Rules for thee, not for me.” Thousands of IRS employees & contractors literally *aren’t paying their own taxes.* @SenJoniErnst audited the IRS & found they owed nearly $50 million. The government-wide number of employee unpaid taxes is over $1.5 billion. The hypocrisy is insane.

The Telegraph is a relatively conservative British paper. But unlike much of US media, they're not afraid to write the truth in a headline. Rick Scott: Businessman behind one of the biggest medical frauds in history tipped to run Senate telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/…

I can't figure out if vaccines work or not. Tough one. I can see why RFK Jr is so concerned. Need Sherlock Holmes on this one.

A lot of economic errors here. Tariffs do NOT boost domestic production. They SHIFT domestic production away from efficient industries toward inefficient industries, making most of us poorer. 1/2
I keep seeing so called "smart people" arguing against Trumps tarriff plan, but that's only because they think in checkers, not chess. And yes, Trump's plan is the epitome of 5D Chess. Here's why...

It's absurd that 40% of the buildings in Manhattan are literally illegal to build today.

President Zelensky’s team confirms to me that Elon Musk was on the call with Trump and the Ukrainian president and participated in the discussion.

Our last estimate for the final turnout in the presidential election is 157.5 million, almost matching 2020 in raw votes though falling a tick lower as share of eligible voters, given population growth.
