Senator Marco Rubio is expected to resign from the Senate to assume duties as Secretary of State when the Trump administration takes power on January 20th, creating a vacancy roughly two months from today. We have already received strong interest from several possible candidates, and we continue to gather names of additional candidates and conduct preliminary vetting. More extensive vetting and candidate interviews will be conducted over the next few weeks, with a selection likely made by the beginning of January. Florida deserves a Senator who will help President Trump deliver on his election mandate, be strong on immigration and border security, take on the entrenched bureaucracy and administrative state, reverse the nation’s fiscal decline, be animated by conservative principles, and has a proven record of results.

System can not be fixed piecemeal. Root cause is the system which based on greed for profit, making money without lifting a finger and runaway financial sector which is based on siphoning money from the poor to the rich, monopolies and big businesses big banks which control everything, even the government, and a system where people representatives are elected by money, not people, where GDP is the sole indicator of strong economy. Unless this is changed, nothing else will.

The function of our current health care system is to provide huge profits for the insurance industry and drug companies. We need to join every other major country on earth and move to a Medicare for All, single-payer system with no out of pocket expenses.

@SenSanders Obamacare was a disaster for most Americans. Why would we want the same people that screwed up health insurance for 80% of Americans changing health care even more? Obviously, none of you have any idea what you're doing.

🧵Harris-won states perform better economically, contributing more to GDP, with higher incomes, better education levels, and longer life expectancies. They also have lower rates of poverty, crime, and chronic illness. Trump-won states, in contrast, face higher poverty, more gun violence, higher incarceration, and more chronic disease prevalence. Economic Performance •GDP Contribution: Harris-won states contribute a larger share of the national GDP (53%) compared to Trump-won states (47%), even though they represent a smaller number of states. This higher economic output correlates with generally higher incomes, greater population density in urban areas, and a concentration of industries like technology and finance, which tend to generate higher GDP. •Median Household Income: The median household income in Harris-won states is significantly higher, with an average above $80,000, compared to below $50,000 in Trump-won states. This suggests a disparity in economic opportunity, wage levels, and possibly cost of living, with Harris-won states generally offering higher-paying jobs. Public Health Indicators •Life Expectancy: Residents in Harris-won states have a higher average life expectancy (around 80 years) compared to Trump-won states (approximately 75 years). This difference may be influenced by factors such as access to healthcare, lifestyle, and economic conditions, which can directly impact overall health outcomes. •Child and Maternal Mortality: Both child and maternal mortality rates are notably lower in Harris-won states, suggesting better access to healthcare services, more robust public health systems, and potentially better social safety nets. •Chronic Disease and Disability: Trump-won states show higher rates of chronic disease (55% vs. 40%) and a larger percentage of the population on disability (15% vs. 9%). These metrics may indicate challenges with healthcare accessibility, preventive care, and lifestyle factors. Social and Crime Indicators •Incarceration Rate: Trump-won states have a significantly higher incarceration rate (1,094 per 100,000) compared to Harris-won states (275 per 100,000). This may reflect differences in criminal justice policies, socioeconomic conditions, and crime rates, with higher incarceration often associated with poverty and limited access to social services. •Violent Crime and Gun Violence: Violent crime and gun-related mortality are higher in Trump-won states. Gun violence, specifically, is considerably more prevalent (29.6 vs. 3.7 per 100,000), suggesting possible differences in gun laws, cultural attitudes towards firearms, and socioeconomic pressures that contribute to crime. Education and Poverty Indicators •Educational Attainment: Harris-won states have a higher percentage of residents with at least a bachelor’s degree (40% vs. 25%). Higher educational attainment is often linked to better job prospects, higher incomes, and overall economic growth, which could partially explain the income and GDP differences. •Poverty and Hunger: Poverty and hunger rates are higher in Trump-won states, with poverty at 16% compared to 9% in Harris-won states, and hunger at 18% vs. 10%. These disparities suggest greater economic hardship and food insecurity in Trump-won states, likely affecting overall quality of life and contributing to poorer health outcomes. Key Takeaways 1.Economic and Educational Advantages in Harris-Won States: Higher GDP, median income, and educational attainment in Harris-won states indicate stronger economic foundations, which support better living standards and health outcomes. 2.Public Health and Crime Challenges in Trump-Won States: Trump-won states face significant challenges related to public health, with higher rates of chronic disease, disability, maternal and child mortality, as well as crime and gun violence. These factors reflect systemic issues in healthcare access, economic conditions, and public health issues.🧵

The more we heat up the atmosphere and the oceans, the more stunning rainfall extremes we will see. It’s physics. Climate scientists have warned of this for more than three decades.
Nahel Belgherze@WxNB_

This is probably the most astonishing rainfall data I’ve ever had my hands on. Turis, Valencia, Spain, found itself in the absolute worst of last week’s extreme rain event. The town ended up with a mind-boggling 771.8 mm (30.4 inches) of rainfall over the course of 24 hours.

The idea that you can eliminate all income taxes and replace them with a tariff is insane economics. It makes no sense. It will hurt desperately poor people and enrich the wealthy.

We all tried. The Trump cult runs deeper than we thought. America as we know it is gone. I will keep saying it. Trump just got a get out of jail free card. What I have learned is the handful of normal Trump people I’ve met don’t know anything about his policies or his criminal record. They are shocked when I show them the facts. They don’t know anything about project 2025. By the end of his presidency, we will all be speaking Russian with the threat of nuclear missiles pointed at us. God help us. We are witnessing the end of democracy.
