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.

"It's not alarmist to say that these are goons, this is a secret police that is going into our cities to kidnap people, abduct people off the streets" @katmabu.bsky.social on the dangers of ICE agents and potentially troops roaming the streets of Chicago.
Meanwhile, did you see? A federal judge on Friday allowed the Trump admin and the Oklahoma AG to use his court to subvert democracy through a sham lawsuit manufactured to get rid of a pro-immigrant state law they don’t like without needing to go through the trouble of actually repealing the law.

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Veterans against Trump‼️ 💯 Absolutely Correct

The DeSantis regime will do more to protect sidewalks from chalk than children from bullets.
This is never going away, is it?
Once again, Border Patrol tells the press this was a targeted kidnapping, yet they took a man who is legally here & in the immigration process. This shows that it was not a targeted investigation as they claimed. Press must stop printing lies. apnews.com/article/immi...
30 August 1942 | A transport of 608 Jews deported from the Westerbork transit camp in the occupied Netherlands arrived at Auschwitz After the selection all people were murdered in gas chambers. No one was registered in the camp.

These guys should be home with their families.
Another reason to avoid CB. #CorporateCoward
According to Google AI: Louisiana, Mississippi, & Alaska are top of the list for crime. Do you see Trump sending troops there? No, because they’re red states. This is not about crime. This is about a fascist takeover of blue states to stop the midterms. Stand up. Stand strong. #ProudBlue #Pinks
Why doesn’t #Missouri support the health of its own citizens?
Lisa Cook is right not to resign. Trump’s attempt to fire her without cause is flatly illegal. www.nysun.com/article/i-wi...

Two sellouts….
The numbers are in. The new maps republicans just passed in Texas reduce Hispanic Texans to one-third of a white person and Black Texans to one-fifth of a white person.
Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations. The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.
Fox News falls for it hook, line, and sinker.
Release the Epstein Files!

10 August 1929 | Belgian Jewish girl Mariette Peretz was born in Antwerp. In April 1943 she was deported to from Mechelen / Malines to #Auschwitz. She did not survive.
Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.
Virginia Giuffre’s brother: Calling it a hoax is a complete disgrace to everything that my sister has worked for, everything these survivors have worked for and continue to fight for… And that feels very uncompassionate coming from somebody that’s the leader of our country.
Did you say “admitted to the bar in 2024?” The DEI of it all. This is insane.
NEW: As #txlege weighs disaster policies, experts say they're is overlooking part of what made the July floods so devastating: unregulated development in flood-prone areas. Our interactive map shows some impacted sites in the Austin area were directly in floodways. www.statesman.com/story/news/l...

🚨 #SocialSecurity is on the chopping block. Thanks to Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” retirees are now staring down $18,000-a-year benefit cut in just seven years. Seniors who paid in their whole lives are left holding the bag. – $13,600 cut for a typical retired couple.

Just 40 days ago, Democratic lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed by an unhinged Trump supporter and the story has basically already vanished from the national consciousness. DO NOT LET IT.

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.
One of the most under reported stories in the legacy media is how many states the RNC and DOJ are suing right now to access their voter rolls. It is a frontal assault on democracy that Democracy Docket covers every day, while legacy media both-sides Trump. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
WTF CBS Paramount ?! Another company grifting with the MAGA cult of Trump. Bend the knee, kiss the swollen, orange hand. Boycott the b*stards. I stand with Stephen Colbert ✊🏻✊🏾✊ Watch. Share. Raise hell. 👇

Another day, and Trump still ain’t released those Epstein files. Another day of Republicans stopping all business on the House floor because they can’t get their shit together. They’ve had this vote open for over 4 hours. This is dysfunction at its finest.
Incredible how much Trump policies help Chinese communists.
Another “Paul” line of nonsense. Another reason we need separation of church and state
The Trump administration is laying the groundwork for what could be the most aggressive federal intervention in election administration in modern history.
FUCKING PATHETIC: After *helping* present the winning trophy to Chelsea — and awkwardly hanging around for the team's on-stage celebration — Trump kept the Gold Club World Cup trophy for himself, forcing FIFA to award Chelsea with a replica!!!
Over the weekend Elon admitted that Grok basically had two modes: "woke libtard cuck" or "mechahitler" and he couldn't figure out how to make it anything else. I guess he turned the dial towards mechahitler again.
Creating labor shortages, weakening higher ed, defunding science, raising prices on inputs - all create an incentive for American companies not to reshore but to move production and operations outside the US. It's literally the opposite of what they are promising or perhaps even understand.
The flood wasn’t political. Why the county was so unprepared and people died… that was entirely political.
Every American should read this ACLU lawsuit about what is happening in Los Angeles and California. It is the stuff of dystopian nightmares. This is not immigration enforcement. It is positively stuffed with videos and articles documenting racial profiling on a scale unseen since Jim Crow.

CBP SECTOR CHIEF GREG BOVINO TO LA RESIDENTS: “We don’t work for Karen Bass… better get used to us now, this is going to be normal very soon.”🤔 If it quacks like Martial Law… How long til Cali folks move to stop funding this with their tax dollars?
Going to mildly suggest that making Jamelle Bouie the sin-eater for every management fuckup at the New York Times is not particularly cool
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
Eric Burlison doesn’t care
Make this make sense. 🤷🏼♂️
23 May 1944 | A transport of 1,200 French Jews arrived at #Auschwitz from Drancy. After the selection, 221 men & 247 women were registered in the camp. The remaining 723 people were murdered in gas chambers. Among them was Harriet Nordmann. She was almost 3 years old.

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read. He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:
More in No, Other People: New poll: “America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory
Remember Fiona Hill? She’s now sounding the alarm again: “We’re definitely on a path toward full-on state repression. There’s no question about it. I’ve thought about this for an extraordinarily long time.” When Fiona speaks, we should all listen.
Forget about the legal case. A man was wrongly deported and placed in a notorious prison with leaders of a gang out to get him. Anyone with an ounce of basic human decency would fix the mistake and return that man to the United States
Exclusive: Two days after the Social Security Administration purposely and falsely labeled 6,100 living immigrants as dead, security guards arrived at the office of a well-regarded senior executive in the agency’s Woodlawn, Maryland, headquarters.
BREAKING: The country of Norway just entered a bill to give transgender Americans asylum in the country of Norway… LGBTQ+ STRONG! 🌈✨
Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.
Columbia University capitulated to Trump to get $400M in science funding released. What happened? Not only has the funding NOT been released, but all NIH funding ($700M last year) has been frozen. Giving in to bullies just makes them take more. arstechnica.com/science/2025...

Trump is following through on his promise to lower prices!

Everyone needs to understand what Elon and DOGE are building, an AI driven panopticon that will know everything about you and will be used to ensure compliance with their fascist agenda. They are creating a unified database of everything the federal government has on every single American. 🧵1/
Trump Asks Supreme Court to Let Him Deport Migrants Without Due Process
If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
