  8. It was a skit worthy of an Agatha Christie whodunit reveal: Against the perhaps-too-joyous strains of a jazzy “When The Saints Go Marching In,” a gaggle of health IT professionals and Medicare staffers accompanied a Spirit Halloween-style coffin prop onstage. The coffin read, “RIP CLIPBOARD.”

    – Victimhood ("Instead of protecting American citizens, they chose to cover it up and even accelerate the invasion.")

  13. Trump Says It Out Loud: GOP Prioritizes War Over Healthcare, Childcare, and Survival

    Trump openly dismisses healthcare and childcare as scams, revealing a GOP agenda that prioritizes war over people and shifts the burden to struggling states.

    Sound familiar? We elected one #Potus, so naturally the #NarcissistInChief #pardoned them.

  15. The “Oligarch’s Budget” Wages War on Poor Americans

    Unless you’re very wealthy, this bill will ultimately leave you worse off and more economically vulnerable.

  16. Economic Downturns Cut Lives Short—But Only If You’re Poor & American.
    A new study shows that recessions slash life expectancy for less-educated Americans—yet another sign of how brutal U.S. inequality is compared to Northern Europe, where strong social safety nets protect people from economic shocks.

    While Denmark, Norway, and Sweden use universal healthcare, robust unemployment benefits, and proactive welfare policies to shield their citizens, the U.S. leaves its most vulnerable to suffer. The result? A life expectancy gap that widens with every crisis.

  17. #Medicare #Medicade #disabled

    'The sweep of impending Medicare and Medicaid cuts in the US under Donald Trump could be about to put a severely chronically ill patient’s life at risk.

    Living with multiple complex and under-recognised conditions including hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), tethered cord syndrome, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), 34 year-old US resident Emily Johnson has been in palliative care since the age of 28.

    Now, the Republicans’ plans under Trump to slash these programmes could mean losing access to the vital care currently keeping her conditions stable.

    What’s more, not only will the cuts sever her financial bridge to her daily treatment, but it could stop her getting the surgeries she sorely needs. These are crucial treatments that could improve her long-standing health issues. These would help her regain a quality of life that enables her to not just survive, but live with fewer life-threatening, debilitating symptoms, and she hopes, even pursue her passions.
