@rubycramer This is a really wonderful story, and very well-written. To talk about what it means for a town to take in migrants, refugees; challenges to social norms, language, schools, everything. Suddenly the backlash and loss of well-wishing! So glad you found Kevin, trying to be fair.

The plan was to move migrant families to a vacant prison in the small town of Norfolk, Mass., population 11,000. Then came anger, fear, and a fight over the meaning of shelter. wapo.st/3B5zO23

@wendellpotter The insurers are always thirsty for more money. This certainly is a worry for doctors wanting to have enough time to give good care to patients.

(1/3) NEW: Big for-profit health insurers made over $40 billion during the first half of 2023. But Wall Street isn't satisfied. Wall Street is shifting its investments to companies they think can make them more money, and that's ringing alarm bells in health insurer C-Suites.

(3/3) How will insurers do this? By denying payment to hospitals; purging customers; enrolling more seniors in taxpayer-supported programs; increasing prior-authorization and much more. Be prepared for what's to come, read my latest below: wendellpotter.substack.com/p/after-missin…

These are not just statistics or another headline. These are the lives of our children, loved ones, parents and siblings, and fellow Americans. Congress must have the courage to pass reasonable gun safety laws.

Pope Francis announced on Wednesday that women and laypeople will be able to vote for the first time at the upcoming Synod of Bishops, a religious assembly of bishops from all over the world. Scholars say the meeting is crucial to the future of the church. nyti.ms/3nagkCQ

Let’s review some of the governing principles of America, @mtgreenee: Our country is governed by the Constitution. You swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution. Secession is unconstitutional. No member of Congress should advocate secession, Marjorie.
Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸@mtgreenee

We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government. Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are done.

We need CONGRESS to pass a full-year omnibus appropriations bill this year that includes increases in spending for programs that benefit working families and the vulnerable. The obscene military budget takes away from needs for medical care and education. Let's build PEACE!

Can’t believe we even have to say this, but: if you just went to the Senate floor and blocked benefits for veterans exposed to toxic burn pits while serving our country in a war zone, you are wrong.

We need a billion dollars in funding for family planning, women's and children's healthcare; Medical care access for all women for all pregnancies, and for all females of reproductive age, and codified financial help for all high-risk pregnancy needs, and babes' disabilities.

Earlier this month, President @JoeBiden signed the first federal gun safety law in nearly 30 years. It was an important and necessary step—but we need to do more.

Preserve the life of the mother. Miscarriages before the time of viability (24 weeks) need to promptly be dealt with, often as a surgical emergency to stop bleeding. The embryo or fetus needs the placenta to survive, and in a miscarriage, it is not salvegable.

The SCOTUS opinion blocks a civil right for women. You can have the right to your opinion on the moral issues, but criminalizing women by saying abortion is illegal is overstepping and shows the REAL problem: denial of access to universal healthcare and family planning.
