When was the last time he went to Mar-a-lago? There's a reason he's sticking close to the white house. Probably a whole team of doctors working to keep his rotting carcass alive. It would be suspicious if they all traveled en masse to Florida.

Because it prevents the Hep B which, if contracted, can eventually lead to liver disease and liver cancer. Hepatitis B can cause a lot of other symptoms and illnesses prior to liver failure or cancer.

I was just wondering this. What is the criteria for living there and how will the "workers" end up there. Sketchy af.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
All of this can be true. When we're talking about JD's lavish vacations we're not talking about trump's failing health or the #Epsteinfiles.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
Maybe she had a black eye from her pimp and he seized on that as the background story.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
What's astonishing to me is that they didn't think he'd be in them. I always assumed he'd be all over the #Epsteinfiles. They changed their minds when it became clear he was, but they're big dummies for ever thinking differently.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm sure, but the post had no dates included. This event could have been yesterday, or weeks ago.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
She needs to try harder.

They'll still find someone else to blame. Poor people, black and brown people, elderly, disabled. Those "others" taking all the benefits and using up resources.

It's a prerequisite for working in this administration.

Ok, that's fine but their numbers are still janky. A pound of cheese, a pound of ground beef. And 1 beer. π Are people going to pass it around at the bbq? Cost of a six pack is ___.

Yes. We need an entire west coast shadow government.

I remember free government cheese. It was pretty good. However, I don't think this government is going to give us free anything.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
These are dumb examples. Who is buying 1 beer? The people buying "American" cheese are neither buying just 1 beer or romaine lettuce. Here's a better list: Bread Eggs Milk Bacon

We should just pay for doctors' education in exchange for X number of years of service. After they meet their obligation they can go into private practice or join a team at a clinic or hospital. Same with nurses and other medical professionals.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
There's no limit. Until trump dies they will continue to look the other way.

They were all about pleasing trump, not making good decisions for the country or their constituents.

Unfortunately, some of these diseases will spread. Availability of vaccines will become limited or non-existent. Little vulnerable children will get sick before they're old enough for vaccines. It's going to affect everyone.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
If we can. They're already limiting access to covid vaccines.

They're all a bunch of lame brains.

Putting "nutrition at the center" while this administration limits access to fresh foods, eliminates free school lunch programs and cuts SNAP benefits. How's that going to work?

I believe JD will step in and make some changes in the interest of "normalcy". Clueless Dem leadership will heave a big sigh of relief, and then JD proceeds with P2025 full speed.

CHF. He has the age, lifestyle and all the signs.

Pretty soon he won't be able to get those lace up shoes on. Both my stepdad and father-in-law who had CHF had to switch to the velcro shoes.

Our kids are growing up with the understanding of how common this is. They literally have active shooter drills in school. My own grandkids have been in lockdown at school due to bomb threats. It's not right, but it is the new normal.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
It can happen anywhere at anytime. I survived a mass shooting 45 years ago (before it was so common). You'd think that would be once in a lifetime experience. That's no longer true.

My doctor doesn't even give the covid shots anymore. If you want one you have to go to the pharmacy.

I recall when smokers were on the list to get early access to the vaccine. I wonder if they just recycled the same list. π€

They already have all that. It's one way they're locating immigrants.

Or worse. I wouldn't doubt if there's a master plan to eliminate the weak, sick, disabled and mentally ill.

I've advocated for universal health care in the US for decades and would love to have a system like yours. Even in a good system improvements are always possible with thoughtful analysis and user input.

Because he's their useful idiot.

Not him directly, but Suzie Wiles or Stephen Miller. They know exactly how to keep their charge in line and on course. He is easily pacified and manipulated.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
Why not? Medical professionals have brains, experience and critical thinking skills. Why wouldn't their input have merit? While Canada does have universal health care I have heard complaints. Even good systems can benefit from thoughtful change.

NPR aired a radio program with a technology expert who was sounding the alarm about this. Quite alarmist in fact. I only caught a small part of the interview and haven't been able to find it again on their website. Now I'm wondering if it was taken down. π€

Poorer states still get more federal funds for traditional Medicaid but they still have to partially fund the programs within their states. The minimum is 50%.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
How? How is this supposed to happen? States don't "pay" the federal government directly so how are they "keeping their own wealth".
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
I'd like to know how they think this is going to work. Seems logistically impossible.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
Not expanding Medicaid was states actually turning down federal funds because there's a state match rate. At first feds paid up to 90% for expansion, then over time that rate went down & states would take on more of the funding burden for expanded programs.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes. I'd like to hear the logistics behind this proposal, rather than just generic "we'll keep OUR money in OUR state". Explain how that's going to work exactly.
MarinaZee (@marinazee.bsky.social) reply parent
I imagine states would create their own emergency relief funds. Probably run them better than FEMA anyway.
