Since United Healthcare killers shells said “delay, deny, depose” & police said he came from GA, I read all lawsuits there on UH unjust claim denials. There are so many, including where UH delayed till plaintiffs ran out of $. Some ended in deaths of kids. suspect list is endless

"Deny, deny, deny. That's how you hit your numbers."
Read @propublica's seminal series on how insurance giants like United and Cigna systematically, cruelly—and very, very profitably—deny health coverage every day, at the expense of patients' lives.

.@UHC denied my surgery two days before it was scheduled. I was in the hospital finance office in tears (when I was supposed to be at the hospital doing pre-op stuff). 1/7

The audit found 15 IRS employees (out of over 80,000) that owed taxes
Vivek Ramaswamy@VivekGRamaswamy
“Rules for thee, not for me.” Thousands of IRS employees & contractors literally *aren’t paying their own taxes.* @SenJoniErnst audited the IRS & found they owed nearly $50 million. The government-wide number of employee unpaid taxes is over $1.5 billion. The hypocrisy is insane.

Not just a Friday night, a Friday night before a holiday week…
Peter Baker@peterbakernyt
A new HUD secretary, labor secretary, FDA chief, CDC director, surgeon general, labor secretary, OMB director, deputy national security adviser, counterterrorism chief and treasury secretary, all on a Friday night. It's going to be an exhausting four years. No sleep or rest.

NEW: Florida sued the FDA over a “reckless delay” in approving its drug importation plan. Now, nearly a year after the FDA gave the state the green light, the program has yet to begin.

Sad factor in the loss of porches: Appraisers don’t value them.
If Builder A built a 2,000 sqft home without a porch, and Builder B built an identical home with a nice porch, Builder B was punished in the value, loan amount.
So they stopped building porches.

The Telegraph is a relatively conservative British paper.
But unlike much of US media, they're not afraid to write the truth in a headline.

I can't figure out if vaccines work or not.
Tough one. I can see why RFK Jr is so concerned.

A lot of economic errors here. Tariffs do NOT boost domestic production. They SHIFT domestic production away from efficient industries toward inefficient industries, making most of us poorer. 1/2

I keep seeing so called "smart people" arguing against Trumps tarriff plan, but that's only because they think in checkers, not chess. And yes, Trump's plan is the epitome of 5D Chess. Here's why...
