Giant health insurance companies, like UnitedHealth, are under investigation for corporate fraud through their Medicare Advantage plans.
We cannot give these companies one more taxpayer dollar, let alone the $13 billion HHS Secretary Kennedy just approved.

Pass this on. It's the truth.
Yo, Alberta and Saskatchewan.....
Will voters EVER understand the big lie about "scary democratic (small D) socialist policies?!" Bernie has told us for decades, and Mamdani is showing us now. We can instantly fund a WAR but have TO DEBATE for decades about healthcare for all - GEEZUS!
They've LIED TO US FOR PROFIT for decades.
It's disappointing that the BC Education Minister dismissed findings that public education funding is declining as a share of GDP while funding for private schools holds steady
Public funding for private schools is indefensible

“Bill 11… allows physicians to treat patients in the public health care system while also charging them fees, creating a two-tiered system for those who can pay and those who cannot.”
Over 50 organizations have written to Ottawa to urge enforcement of the Canada Health Act.
Looks like Smithler is going to be shut down.
Wow, our last three PMs would not spend the money to fix up 24 Sussex Drive where they are suppose to live- due to the optics, but a Premier isn’t concerned about the optics of buying a private jet?? He must feel very safe in his position. Crazy!
Well if PP’s digging his on hole, I agree he should dig deeper. Idiot
All of this 100%
Mark Rufalo warns Congress against the Paramount-WBD merger:
"You don't have to watch 'Citizen Kane' or read '1984' to understand that the concentrated oligarchic control this merger represents is a threat to a free press, an informed populace & democracy itself."

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.
Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.
This is what corporate greed looks like.
A tweet quoting Senator Andy Kim criticizing being denied a briefing on the Iran war, with a video still of him speaking at a press conference alongside other officials.
It's so bad they won't even brief Congress.
Chamel Abdul-Karim allegedly burned $750M in property
Had Kimberly-Clark paid its 38K employees enough to live, it would've cost $750M—still leaving them with ~$2B profit
Abdul-Karim's violence is criminalized—but corporate economic violence is praised. Receipts

"There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us," write @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.
France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.
Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars
The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.
Why aren't we doing this?
MeidasTouch host Katie Phang testifies in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on the proposed merger of Paramount-Skydance and Warner Bros.:
"Democracy cannot survive if powerful people get to decide which facts are allowed to exist and what version of the truth they want to peddle for profit."

Omg- PP needs to resign. Nothing that comes out his mouth is true or accurate. He’s an embarrassment to his party and the country. Sadly he’s also too selfish to do what’s right.
If you don't live in a "swing state," your vote counts less. But we can reform the Electoral College and fix that.
Since we made this video, Maine and now Virginia have joined the National Popular Vote compact.
Here's what you need to know.

Always follow the money.
Not feeling good about giving my hard earned money to the oligarchs, to fund illegal & unnecessary "wars,"or fund any of this admin's crooked schemes.
Not at all 'good.'
Sanders: The Wall Street Journal reported recently that Jeff Bezos wants to raise $100 billion to automate factories in America and around the world. It means there will no longer be manufacturing jobs in the United States.
Any other President, any other country, any other time, he’d be impeached, imprisoned and disgraced.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.
I couldn’t wait to tune in to NBC nightly news, as I have every day since I was a teenager, to see their in-depth coverage of Orban’s defeat in Hungary. They did not even get to this story until about 10 or 15 minutes into the show and they gave it 30 seconds. I am so done w mainstream media. FAIL!
