Repeat after me: More money and higher insurance subsidies will not fix the American medical system More money and higher insurance subsidies will not fix the American medical system More money and higher insurance subsidies will not fix the American medical system More...
Two charts that tell you all you will ever need to know about the failure of Obamacare. It was passed in 2010, the very year American life expectancy began to stagnate. Since then, the US has fallen ever further behind other rich countries. Yet our medical spending has doubled.

I’m complaining. I’m not wearing a stupid pointless mask.
This week our hospital and clinic adopted a universal masking policy for staff and patients because of the surge in respiratory illnesses in DC. No one complained. It’s just a mask.

A lot of sad stories here, eloquently told. However all of these events that you describe took place when the Affordable Care Act, including Medicaid expansion and additional covid subsidies, were in full effect. They did not prevent any of them. One could conclude from this article that the ACA is failing. What is the alternative? Pouring more trillions of printed money into a failing system does not seem like a good solution. In addition, our society has to do more to curb the exploding rate of diabetes and its complications. If present growth rates continue, no amount of money will ever be enough. Primordial prevention needs to have a place too.

Oh wow look the Covid shot lowers risk of death from everything! No bias to see here… 🙄
🚨 NEW: One of the largest COVID-19 vaccine studies ever (28 MILLION people in France) just dropped. Results? • 74% lower risk of death from severe COVID-19 • 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality • No increase in 4-year mortality • Vaccinated people had lower risk of death from any cause. In short: mRNA vaccines weren’t just safe — they were protective across the board. 🔥📉

More recess and less sex flags and pronoun nonsense (and never ever force kids to wear masks and stay 6 feet apart- we need to let children be children)
As some push for a return to high stakes testing, this piece is a vital reminder that we need to let children be children- why not create safe and welcoming classrooms with engaging and relevant curriculum…..and recess… nytimes.com/2025/11/24/magaz…

Wikipedia is hopelessly biased. An army of left-wing activists maintain the bios and fight reasonable corrections. Magnifying the problem, Wikipedia often appears first in Google search results, and now it’s a trusted source for AI model training. This is a huge problem.
Larry Sanger built Wikipedia as an unbiased repository of the world’s knowledge, and then stood helplessly by as activists and intel agencies turned it into the most comprehensive propaganda op in human history.

The Danish authorities have withdrawn the recommendation for pregnant women to receive COVID-19 vaccine, given that healthy pregnant women are not at risk of severe illness from the virus. nyheder.tv2.dk/samfund/2025-…

Oh look, the states that had the most unscientific and insane covid policies don’t like this… 🤣

Example: when the Biden Admin instructed Twitter to take down/ban factual tweets/accounts that went against their narrative.
This is right. "A functioning democracy does not restrict perspectives to those of the dominant group, much less make it illegal to teach alternative ones." Trump wants to hide the truth and deny opportunity to critical thinking as fascists always do. bsky.app/profile/theguardian…

I agree with phone free classrooms & more free play, but did she forget about how teachers unions message of closed schools stay 6 ft apart & wearing masks all day was pretty anxiety producing & completely unnecessary and ridiculous. Not to mention the cause of screen addiction.
We kicked off the first AFT Book Club of the school year with Anxious Generation author @jonhaidt (who dedicated his book to NY public school educators)! We discussed the importance of phone-free schools in fighting addiction and why play is so crucial to children's development.

Maybe don’t always turn off comments if you love give and take.

And unlike on Twitter, I love the give and take on Bluesky - it’s authentic

The idea that the Biden administration viewed millions of Americans as a terrorist threat sounds like a conspiracy theory, but it’s not. Newly declassified documents show that in December 2021, the FBI and DHS labeled opponents of Covid mandates "Domestic Violent Extremists."

This article bothered me so much because of its' basic errors of fact and logic, I have written a rebuttal. Make sure accurate messaging prevails over the fearmongering by RT'ing widely

You seriously allow this @USASwimming @MastersSwimming
🚨🚨INSANITY. At this weekend’s U.S. Masters Spring National Championships, Hugo “Ana” Caldas, a male athlete, took first place in 5 Women’s individual events. Here he is crushing the Women's breast stroke 45-49 category, winning by a full 3 seconds, in a time of 29.74. Anyone who competes in swimming at the national level knows this is unheard of in a 50 yard race where wins are often measured in a tenth or a hundredth of a second. Gratitude to @hecheateddotorg for bringing this injustice to light. 🙏 🙏 @Riley_Gaines_ @Martina @Hogshead3Au @JenniferSey @icons_women @SexMattersOrg

According to the @AAUW: 🎓It takes women roughly 2 years longer than men to repay student loans, with the gender pay gap compounding payments for women over time 🎓With a mean student debt of $37,558, Black women owe more than any other group of women 19thnews.org/2025/04/women-s…

Tesla's quarterly earnings are disastrous, profitability is down 66% YoY.  We saw this coming, and it is why I asked large asset managers to evaluate their $TSLA holdings:  aft.org/sites/default/files/…
