@cfishman "Garbage in, garbage out" is evergreen in computational circles!

The No. 2 doctor recommended by Google Gemini for 'highly rated practitioners' in a specialty we need: Convicted in 2025 & sentenced to 15 months in federal prison for unlawfully distributing controlled substances. Not sure our AI-run world will be more competent than our human-run world. tbh.

@NakedHedgie This is incompetence in MD and a warning for the rest of us.

With all the money, lives and attention wasted on a war for Israel, this is still not repaired. Would have come at a fraction of the cost but hey, it's Israel first!

@ProudSocialist Be careful what you recommend - ESOPs and the like suck more than most companies.

The masses starting to realize that rising up together and demanding a system where workers own the means of production or it all burns down is 1000% times more effective than voting for political parties that sell us out to their rich donors.

@Laurelknutson @NotTheirScript The US system can be uneven. That is a bit easier to fix than institutional rationing. Canada is great for a no problem pregnancy as you don't get a bill, but say the baby is early, where in the US baby gets care and lives, in Canada the baby is plopped in Mom's arms to die.

@NotTheirScript The difficulty with the American system is that many Americans can't afford the medical care you received. Until they have single payer universal healthcare, who cares what they do down there?

Canada told this man’s wife to kill herself with MAID because they had “no treatment” for her stage 4 ovarian cancer. They lied about HIPEC surgery. Lost her chemo requisition. Her oncologist never even met her in person. ERs sent her home with opioids while her lungs filled with fluid. So they evacuated her by ferry from Vancouver Island to Seattle. America got her into the system immediately. Started chemo. Gave her the surgery Canada said wouldn’t work. Every time she went back to Canada, she nearly died again, going septic in Canadian hospitals until her husband literally unplugged her from machines and evacuated her back to the US. They finally got him a green card in under three months with the help of a Congresswoman. Now they’re in Texas. His wife is heading into her THIRD remission. She squatted 175 lbs for five reps last week. Canada’s answer was death. America’s answer was treatment. That’s the difference. 🇺🇸

@maddenifico I would not trust Ms Freeland either.

Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, making the stunning admission that Trump has destroyed America's relationships with all of its allies. There is not a leader in the world who trusts Trump. NOT FUCKING ONE. 😳👇

@brianstelter Uncle Joe says "hold my beer".

"...never in modern times has the stability of a president been so publicly and forensically debated — and with such profound consequences."

@sahouraxo Assuming it was on purpose and no enemy fighters were using the site as a shield.

BREAKING: Israel dropped bombs on the historic Citadel of Tyre in southern Lebanon. Not a military target. A UNESCO World Heritage site — one of the region’s oldest surviving monuments. This is a war crime and a crime against humanity.

@CervicalPrancer @JennaWDavis @PeterSweden7 Doesn't tell you anything. If you are young and healthy, or already got sick, you didn't need the vaccine and more likely didn't get it. If you were old, sick, etc. you are more likely to get vaccinated and some would still die anyway - sample bias.

@JennaWDavis @PeterSweden7 Now do the raw, unadjusted data.

This should be headline news EVERYWHERE. A Pfizer insider who was former head of toxicology in Europe has just come out and said something that many "conspiracy theorists" suspected. He estimates that 20 000 to 60 000 people in Germany have died from the c*vid vaccine. This was said at a parliamentary enquiry commission in Germany. So why isn't this massive news being reported everywhere? Is the mainstream media that has recieved millions in funding from Bill Gates deliberately covering this up... 🤔

@GeorgeWill Promising to prosecute anyone working with or for the administration will be unlikely to stop. When corruption becomes institutionalized and the law a weapon, did you expect another result? You have never been effective in heading this off and have crowded out others who would

An unpardonable abuse of presidential power with only one solution washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/…

@brianstelter That's true. "News outlets" usually win instead of always win because they keep making stuff up. Just stop.

Trump is highly litigious, but when news outlets defend themselves through the legal system, they usually win. Today is another demonstration of that

Today's ruling in Trump v. Wall Street Journal is a major loss in Trump's legal campaign against media outlets. I pulled over for this CNN live shot from my car:

@MishGEA @JohnHenry610787 @dgsommersmkts @tyillc @jlounsbury59 @USRoute41 @mtmalinen @jimiuorio @JonFraserTF @GratkeWealth @grok I don't think you can game this out. The priority of incentives are not clear. And humans are clever, most sides will be able to hold out/adjust far more than is expected.

@JohnHenry610787 @dgsommersmkts @tyillc @jlounsbury59 @USRoute41 @mtmalinen @jimiuorio @JonFraserTF @GratkeWealth @grok I don't think Iran will attack. All Iran has to do is watch the blockade (if it happens) send oil prices higher. Iran then blames Trump. Also, China may try military escorts or rare earth blockages. All Iran has to do is wait for Trump to back down, unilaterally.

Iran Rejects Trump’s Final Offer, US to Blockade the Strait, Then What? @tyillc @jlounsbury59 @USRoute41 @mtmalinen @jimiuorio @JonFraserTF @GratkeWealth @grok @dgsommersmkts Key question: Has the Trump administration thought any of this through? mishtalk.com/economics/iran…

@Rep_Stansbury How about if you are accused?

If you sexually assaulted someone, you should not be serving in Congress—[or as President]. Period.

@SenMarkKelly If you step in dog poo, don't expect clean shoes.

As a Catholic, I find it abhorrent that the President of the United States would publicly attack the Successor of St. Peter. Donald Trump is flailing. His war in Iran has led to the death and injury of American servicemembers and the death of Iranian children. He will attack anyone or anything to try to protect himself, even the Church that millions of Americans find faith and comfort in every day. The American people deserve a president who understands the consequences of his words and takes responsibility for his actions.

@McFaul You blockade your enemies. Logical result, escalate to de-escalate. Results of course, vary.

Iranian dictators couldn't attack Israel and the US effectively, so they attacked and punished other countries to increase their leverage as a way to end the war. Aren't we now doing the same thing by closing Hormuz? Or am I not understanding something about the strategy? It's not only Iran that will be impacted by our blockade.

If he gets results, almost no one who voted for him cares if it is ego driven. There has to be something off to want that job anyway. If we continue on the road we are on, someone so much worse will come along and get in that office. You have been warned.

@ChrisMurphyCT Iran is getting military supplies and income in order to fight through the straight. You blockade your enemies. Was always coming to this if Iran did not capitulate.

So now WE are closing the Strait. This is - just in case you were wondering - as dumb as it sounds. It’s a classic case of one tragic mistake begetting another because of out of control hubris and pride.

@RudyHavenstein Arresting Presidents is not a good precedent. Another impeachment ups the ante.

I didn't support Trump's first two impeachments, but I am all-in on #3.

@Scaramucci Not check and balances, people and geography. The checks and balances only kept gov from getting in the way too much. Sadly, concentration of power in DC has caused this brake on gov to weaken.

The American people have the answer. They just have to look at what they already built. This system, with its checks and balances, its processes, its separation of powers, made the United States the most prosperous and arguably the most powerful country in the history of the world. Even Richard Nixon abided by the system when it came for him. And now we’ve decided we want to wreck it. And here’s the thing — I understand it. You grew up being told the system was fair. Work hard. Play by the rules. You’ll get there. And then you watched the system get rigged in real time. -The manufacturing went to China. -The forever wars bled the treasury. -The financial crisis hit and the banks got bailed out The people at the top got super rich. You’re in a full-on affordability crisis. You went from aspirational to desperational. So Trump becomes your avatar for anger. System’s not working for me, so let’s blow up the system. I understand the emotion completely. But here’s the hard truth that nobody who’s angry wants to hear right now: The people who want to blow up the system are going to be hurt the most by blowing it up.

@SenBlumenthal In his very crass way, he is pointing out that Europe wants a one way relationship for their benefit.

Abandoning NATO won’t solve Trump’s Iran quagmire—only deepen it. Our NATO allies can be important to reopening the Strait of Hormuz & countering Putin, newly enriched & emboldened by the Iran war.

Driven by vanity & vengeance, Trump seems bent on destroying NATO, a catastrophic self inflicted injury to national security. European allies look askance at his Iran war of impulse & illusion for the same reasons Americans oppose it. nytimes.com/2026/04/09/wor…

Win-win.
