Horrifying to hear how much data is being collected from the US government when their citizens use common government websites, bypassing standard safety and collection procedures.
Fun fact I learned today: if you have to change insurance plans midyear your deductible resets to $0 midyear, even if both plans were through #UnitedHealthCare. #InsuranceIsAScam#healthcare#uhc#myuhc

Eight of twelve GOP cosponsors to a resolution to release the Epstein files *refuse to sign* the discharge petition that would bring the bill to a vote. 🤔
If any of these is your rep, call and tell them what you think about it.
Let's see what they have said about the Epstein files:
I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!
Throwback Thursday…
Remember that time Biden cornered the entire Republican Party into denying they’d cut Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid for a $1T tax break for billionaires?
That was only a year ago. Now, the biggest earned benefits cut in history is in their budget.
“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”
A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.
For those filling out a map correction form on Google, they could care less. If you want to make a difference, change your search engine on your phone or iPad or desktop to duck duck go or yahoo. THAT cuts their page hits and hurts their pocket book.
Made a new friend at Federal Protective Service.
His data is getting stolen too.
Can you imagine you’re a cop and not only does a bank get robbed in front of you and you do nothing, but then the robbers rob you and you do nothing.
So while everyone has been focusing on the dumpster fire of Trump, let's see what MAGA has been up to in the House.
They have been busy introducing laws meant to restrict abortion nationwide.

(This is going to be one long thread)
Dull, overwhelming gray covering it all is a perfect metaphor for the bigger picture.
This photograph was taken two days ago at the FBI Academy in Quantico and submitted to the NYT under the condition of anonymity.
If a picture is usually worth a thousand words, this one is worth millions.
BREAKING: The Department of Veterans Affairs has CANCELLED SUICIDE PREVENTION TRAINING because it includes considerations for the LGBTQ+ community.
Veterans suicide.
Over 400,000 Americans died fighting the horrors of fascism in WWII—now we have Trump henchmen mimicking a Nazi salute? It’s a disgusting insult to their sacrifice and a chilling sign of where we’re headed.

Elon, Peter Thiel, and a few other TESCREALists who are disciples of fascist madman Curtis Yarvin selected J.D. Vance to be VP (because Vance is also a secret Yarvinist).
And you have to read what the Yarvinists want to do to you and your family to believe it.
I’m not even going to say it anymore.
I wonder if it's a take on the first three words of the following book...
"Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don't Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It."
I wonder if there is a chapter in there that suggests doing what this dude did?

Slava Ukraine🇺🇦
Subtitles aren’t just for deaf or hard of hearing players. They’re important for players in loud environments (who can’t use headphones), non-native speakers who rely on text to follow dialogue, and many neurodivergent folks who struggle to focus or process audio quickly. Just to mention few.
in other "look at where this guy comes from" news, Elon Musk's father just did a lengthy podcast episode that opens with the host saying "I bet the last time you had this many black people in your house someone was trying to rob you"
