Stura

And here it is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥from @cnn @CNNSOTU @jaketapper falsely compares President Trump to the radical pro-Hamas antisemites who physically assaulted, spit on American students faces, drew swastikas on their doors, and rioted and destroyed university property. President Trump has targeted the Iranian terrorist regime to save the Iranian people and the world from the largest state sponsor of terror that has slaughtered their own people.

UHC pays the chains 10x on generics vs independents. They do not even hide it. It’s right on their website. So happy I retired this January.

Terminally-ill cancer patient needs #180 oxycodone 5mg tablets filled. They’ve met their OOP for the year with @WellcarePlans, so all of their co-pays are now $0 at the pharmacy counter for the rest of the year. @WellcarePlans pay us $12.15 for those #180 tablets while they pay the Walmart down the road $80.07 for the same prescription on the same insurance plan! How the fuck is that even close to being fair? Walmart and our independent pharmacy are both standard “in-network” pharmacies by @CMSGov standards. Why the huge discrepancy in reimbursements? Where are you at @FTC, how are the other 2 settlements with the large PBMs going? @WellcarePlans uses @ExpressScripts as their wonderful PBM! The same entity you all “settled” up with a few short months ago. This is why your local pharmacies are shutting down nationwide. The playing field is no where close to being fair.

I had a NYS MEDICAID audit that took 6 auditors 2 years to find 9 legitimately filled rxs with clerical errors ( wrong written date and wrong npi) Meanwhile they could have spent that time going after 10s of billions in actual fraud. @GovKathyHochul

72 fraudulent hospices in a single building in LA. Meanwhile San Francisco spends $141,000 per homeless person -- they should be living like kings. The fraud's not investigated because nonprofits are the foot-soldiers of the Democrat party.

This is the best takedown of "No Kings" I've seen yet. "You just hate what you're told to hate..." "I just wish the anti-authoritarian energy was present during actual tyranny." 🔥

He earned the right to say exactly this: "If you ain't got what it takes to go get the right documentation to show that you're a citizen, if voting doesn't matter any more to you than that — I don't give a damn if you ever vote again, because I don't care what you have to say."

Then he invoked JFK — not as a talking point but as a genuine challenge: don't ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.

And the single ask in return — prove you are who you say you are before you participate in the most fundamental act of self-governance in a free society — is being blocked in the Senate for the fifth time by politicians who claim they are protecting the vulnerable. They are not protecting the vulnerable. They are protecting the fraud. And Joey Jones — who knows better than most what this country costs and what it's worth — just said so directly. 80% of Americans agree. 80% of Black Americans agree. 77% of Hispanic Americans agree. Even 65% of Democrats agree. The CBS News poll this week made that undeniable. Chuck Schumer called it evil legislation. Democrats have blocked it five times.

We’ve shown hospice and durable medical equipment fraud, but Queens, NY, has nurtured an entirely different scandal with social adult daycare centers that trick seniors into getting care that they don’t need. Beware.

🚨BREAKING: SecDef Pete Hegseth stares right at the press and goes scorched earth, spelling out their insanity. I could watch this all day. "You, and I mean specifically YOU, the press, you cheer against Trump so hard, it's in your DNA and in your blood to cheer against Trump, because you want him not to be successful so bad, you have to cheer against the efficacy of these strikes. You have to hope maybe they weren't effective." "Maybe the way the Trump administration is representative isn't true. So let's take half truths, spun information, leaked information, and then spin it, spin it in every way we can to try to cause doubt and manipulate the mind, the public mind, over whether or not our brave pilots were successful." "How many stories have been written about how hard it is to, I don't know, fly a plane for 36 hours? Has MSNBC done that story? Has Fox? Have we done the story how hard that is?" "There are so many aspects of what our brave men and women did that because of the hatred of this press corps are undermined because people are trying to leak and spin that it wasn't successful. It's irresponsible." "You're undermining the success of incredible B-2 pilots and incredible F-35 pilots and incredible refuelers and incredible air defenders who accomplished their mission." "How about we talk about how special America is, that only we have these capabilities? I think it's too much to ask, unfortunately, for the fake news. So we're used to that." Do you firmly support Pete Hegseth on this? A. Huge Yes B. No IF Yes, Give me a THUMBS-UP👍!! MAKE THIS GO VIRAL ON 𝕏. LET’S GO 👏

As a lifelong, taxpaying New Yorker, I am extremely worried about the ramifications of the estate tax proposal on New Yorkers if it gets signed into law. I want to be clear up front; this isn't about politics for me. I'm not fighting for the billionaire class, and I'm certainly not one of them. What I am is someone who understands basic math, economics, and business, who has watched what happens when states push tax policy past the breaking point. Here's what's on the table right now: a proposal to reduce New York’s estate tax exemption from $7.1 million down to $750,000, an 89% cut while increasing the top rate from 16% all the way to 50%. This is embedded within a batch of revenue ideas sent up to Albany to try and plug a $5.4 billion hole in the city budget. I want to discuss who this estate tax actually hits, because it’s certainly not the ultra-rich. The ultra-rich weren’t exempt as only the first $7.1 million avoided estate taxes. A $750,000 threshold in the New York metro area is not reasonable. The median home price in New York City hit roughly $809,000. In Nassau County you're looking at $820,000. Suffolk County sits around $675,000. Westchester is $754,000. If you bought a house in the city, Nassau, or Westchester and you spent 30 years paying off that mortgage like a responsible adult, congratulations, you're now above the estate tax threshold. What’s even better is that you hit the threshold before even factoring in your 401k, life insurance, savings, a family business, or other investments. This isn't a tax on the wealthy it’s a tax on a retired couple in Bayside who paid off their split-level. It's a tax on the family that runs a deli in Astoria and owns the building. When you force those families to come up with 50% of the value above $750,000 after someone dies, what do you think happens? They sell. They liquidate. The house goes, the business goes, and the generational wealth that took a lifetime to build disappears in a single tax event. Family businesses which are the backbone of employment in neighborhoods all over this city get gutted. According to the State Department of Taxation and Finance's own numbers New York's tax structure is incredibly top heavy as millionaires paid 44.6% of all personal income tax collected in 2024. The top 200,000 filers covered 51.9%. The bottom half of all earners paid 0.2%. Think about how fragile that makes us. You don't need a mass exodus. You need a few thousand people to change their mailing address to Palm Beach or Austin and the budget math falls apart. Here's the part that really gets me though. The biggest victims of "tax the rich" policies aren't the rich. The rich utilize their resources and leave once they have had enough because their resources make them mobile. The people who get crushed are the ones who stay such as teachers, firefighters, nurses, and the small business owner. They can’t simply pick up and go. The harsh reality is that when the wealthy leave and the tax base shrinks, the city still needs the same amount of money to run the subways, pay the cops and keep the lights on. So where does it come from? It comes from everyone left behind as they are forced to pay higher taxes, and higher fees. What may bother me more is the double taxation piece. The money in someone's estate didn't just appear from thin air. They earned it and paid income tax. They invested it and paid capital gains. They bought property with it and paid property taxes every single year. They bought things and paid sales tax. Every dollar in that estate has already been taxed multiple times over the course of a lifetime. Now when they die the state wants to take half of everything above $750,000? At what point does it stop being a tax and start being confiscation? That's a genuine question I have because if you work your whole life, play by every rule, pay every tax along the way, and the government still takes half when you die what exactly was the point of saving any of it? A $750,000 threshold doesn't catch billionaires it catches the middle class. It catches people who were never wealthy, they were just disciplined. They bought a house, they didn't sell it, they put money away for retirement, and they wanted to leave something for their kids. Punishing that with a 50% tax rate sends a very specific message: the state believes your assets belong to it first and your family second. I don't care where you fall politically that should bother you. I'll say this very simply. When you tax people to the point where they feel targeted, they leave. When they leave the burden falls on everyone who can't. When that burden gets heavy enough, more people figure out a way to go. That's not theory, that's exactly what IRS data and Census numbers have been showing us for half a decade straight. New York is standing at a fork in the road right now. One direction is more punitive taxation with an increasing dependence on a shrinking pool of high earners who increasingly have one foot out the door. The other direction is putting forward competitive tax policy, fiscal discipline, and creating an environment where building wealth and creating jobs isn't treated like something the government needs to punish. I know which path leads somewhere good. I just hope the people making the decisions figure it out before there's nobody left to tax. @amitisinvesting @BillAckman @chamath @patrickbetdavid @PBDsPodcast

The individual accused of pushing two innocent people, including an 83-year-old veteran, onto subway tracks had previously been deported four times, had 15 prior arrests, and was residing in a NYC shelter at taxpayer expense. This is who @NYCMayor, @GovKathyHochul, @SenSchumer, and @RepJeffries have gone out of their way to protect.

Hopefully the no attention stops copy cat attacks.

The pendulum finally swings right. Funny how it’s not an oligarchy when everything was left winged.

Stand up, just say “no!”

If Iran detonated a NUKE any where in the world the stock market would drop 75% and gas would go to $20 a gallon so the cost of the war is insignificant.

What would be the cost if Iran set off a nuke ?

Trump Solves the Iran Problem. The Left Panics.

The Ferguson effect is real. When police officers are demonized and criminals are emboldened, more black lives are lost. The media does not care, and we will never hear the victims' names, because it doesn't fit the narrative.

Hope everyone who voted for this communist gets a ticket.
