And despite repeated entreaties by the Biden administration, Israel has refused the ICRC access to the detainees.
The Trump regimeโs domestic terrorist organizationโICEโnow has access to an Israeli-made spyware that can hack phones and encrypted apps, building their capability to target dissidents.
Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures. Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims. Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.
Old enough to remember the outrage in the United States when Serb forces killed Bosnian civilians fetching water during the siege of Sarajevo.
Trumpโs regime wants to put AI in charge of deciding which Medicare patients receive care โ and they're giving AI companies a profit-incentive to deny coverage. Everything about this is sick and wrong, and Congress must take action. ๐
Huge.

Modern American fascism will manifest as masked federal thugs taking people to concentration camps viewed through footage on your phone that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one being brutalized and taken away.
The goon squad has been unleashed and their armed intimidation should be alarming to everyone that is law abiding because they do not seem to play by the same rules.

Now Republicans are trying something different: quietly weakening the law and hoping you wonโt notice. We canโt let them. Itโs up to all of us to vote for leaders in every election who will make our healthcare system better, not undermine it. Call your member of Congress and hold them accountable.
I'm not kidding that whoever is running for office on the left needs to run on abolishing this absolute trash, not just restoring PBS but elevating it. The platform needs to be "we're undoing all of this damage and that's just the start".

Everyone in DC knows that if you want to hide something, announce it on a Friday in August. Better yet, make it nearly impossible to track down. That's exactly what SCOTUS did last week. But the news is too staggering to hide for long: SCOTUS has decided it's time to destroy the Voting Rights Act.

I see the are-executive-orders-laws thing is coming up again. 1. EOs, by definition, are interpretations of existing law. If theyโre not that, theyโre illegal. 2. EOs only bind executive branch actors. 3. Exec actors behave differently because of them, and that often affects your legal rights.
