@deAdder Who knew there were so many Republicans so blindly ignorant of their party's history of gerrymandering?

Maria Bartiromo: "When I started my career, I put money in my 401k and I was advised, my mother told me, 'match it 100%, whatever your company puts down, match it.' And that's how I got to my first $1 million. I'll say it. That's how I got to become a millionaire."

Last week I randomly got a $9,000 bill for a hospital visit from last year. I called them up and they said my insurance decided not to cover it. Why? Because. .@Aetna can just decide they’re not interested in covering something and then you’re left with an inflated bill to pay out of pocket after the fact. This is in addition to a $2,000 bill that I already paid. They just don’t want to cover it despite me paying a monthly premium. Meanwhile illegals get free healthcare. Honestly fuck you @Aetna. I’m gonna do everything I can to destroy you.

It's been 7 months since we had our baby and we're still receiving unexplained hospital bills in the mail. Hardly ever an adequate description of services. Just a QR code to pay online. It feels intentionally confusing and difficult to get answers. We want price transparency.

@peggy_blair From Fox to CBS to laid off to "telling the stories I could not tell before". Her best days are so far behind her that she's got empty nest syndrome.

?? It is a criminal case. There is no discovery. And consciousness of guilt does not apply. Nice try though!
Catherine Herridge@C__Herridge

Consciousness of Guilt Behavior: If the @comey case gets as far as discovery, his contemporaneous texts, emails and other communications will likely reveal his intent and unfiltered response to the public backlash over his Instagram post. Comey took down the Instagram post the same day, claiming he believed "8647" was political speech, not associated with violence.

@CraigBaird I dimly remember there being a difference in how reusable the stubbies were compared to the American-standard bottles. Maybe that was just marketing.

For decades, The Stubby Bottle ensured that Canadians knew their beer was produced within Canada by a Canadian brewery. But in the 1980s, in the hope of boosting sales, the stubby was abandoned by breweries for the long-neck bottle. This is the story. 📸 LeShoppeVintage 🧵 1/8

@peggy_blair The judge's thought process mystifies me. Did he need a telepath to scan the man's mind before finding his testimony non-credible?

@avenge_p Makes you wonder how many expert witnesses it would have taken to convince this judge or if he would have disbelieved them too. He accepted the accused's testimony he believed all of this fell within normal bounds and dismissed the independent evidence he had as unreliable?

Ungloved. No nurse in the room. An expert witness testified these examinations fell far outside neurological practice. Judge decides the expert witness's testimony has frailties and is biased and dismisses the testimony of 41 women, none of whom had ever met before the trial.
Kelly@broadwaybabyto

48 female patients came forward against Kitchener neurologist Jeffrey Sloka. They alleged he performed unnecessary pelvic & breast exams. The college took his license. The crown pressed charges. The male judge let him walk.

@CraigBaird I found two copies years ago, neither with a full set of cards. Great game but a humbling one.

@ChristopherHale Peter Thiel or the pope. My money's on the Antichrist being the one who has to coat his skin with vaseline to avoid drying out.

Peter Thiel calls Pope Leo XIV the “woke American pope.” He’s worried about Pope Leo working with a “woke American president like AOC” to create a Marxist “Caesar-Papist fusion.”

Approach life with a cheery disposition. Like a tyrannosaurus rex with pompoms and full cheerleading outfit, roaring three times to excite a crowd of ceratopsians that have wandered onto his lawn.
