ProPublica@propublica.org · 2w agoInternal documents and former company executives reveal how Cigna doctors rejected patients’ claims without opening their files. “We literally click and submit,” one former company doctor said. (Published March 2023 w/ @capitolforum.bsky.social)
interesting to me that as the administration treats democratic-voting states like conquered or occupied territories, you don’t have pundits demanding the president respect “half the country”
tony romm@tonyromm.bsky.social · 3w agoNEW: In a stunning admission, the Trump administration admitted in court documents that it canceled billions in energy grants to states "based solely" on politics -- and whether that state was represented by Democrats and backed Harris in 2024. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/24/b...
You actually can fight it. That is absolutely something you can do.

Everyone is focused on trump relitigating 2020. That's the distraction. The real target is Nov. 2026. He needs a fraud narrative already baked in before midterms so he can justify whatever comes next when MAGA loses seats. Pay attention to what he's building, not what he's pretending to remember.
Defiance Dispatch@defiancedispatch.bsky.social · 4w agoYes, Trump can’t get over the fact that he lost in 2020, but the other part of his election denial crusade is creating a pretext to meddle in the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. The upcoming Big Lie presser is meant to justify further interference because Trump/ MAGA are desperate to stay in power.
Interesting analogy really. Cars took untold space from children, forced a massive restriction on their freedom, and still kill thousands of them a year So what am I supposed to expect from AI?
Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 2mo ago“.. He said cars were once portrayed as killing children, but the world changed its norms by having sidewalks and crosswalks .. “When I was growing up, I used to play in the streets,” Huang said. “When cars came along, you obviously can’t play in the streets now.” apnews.com/article/nvid...
Buttigieg: We sit in a in a country that's got the wrong number of people on the Supreme Court, possibly the wrong number of representatives in the House of Representatives. And by the way, when you consider the disenfranchisement of the people of DC, we have the wrong number of states in the US
Google destroyed search to stop people from accessing useful/accurate info. Elon destroyed Twitter to stop people from spreading useful/accurate info. Meta rewards bot traffic to stop people from seeing useful/accurate info. Bezos bought WaPo to stop it from reporting useful/accurate info...

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.
Giving bus riders 20-30 minutes back each round-trip is the kind of improvement that gets people out of cars and onto buses. It's totally worth it.
Gravel Influencer@gravelinfluencer.bsky.social · 3mo agoShaving 10 to 15 minutes off a bus commute in exchange for drivers being slowed by 6 minutes seems like a fair tradeoff.
“Use AI or get left behind!” Please, leave me behind. Drop me off on the side of the road somewhere. Sentence me to a remote cabin with a typewriter and some wildflowers that don’t know how to use the internet

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo agoLoeffler on high gas prices: "We continue to give relief in other areas, cutting $6 trillion in regulations that the Biden administration put in place. So the list goes on and on of the relief that we are providing to the American people in real time."
Live your life in such a way that you don't have to say "I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody" on national television.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4mo agoTRUMP: I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody O'DONNELL: Oh, you think he was referring to you?
Removing regulations doesn’t save the common person money it only lets the rich and corporations make our lives worse

The child sex trafficking rapist fraud insurrectionist President thinks the Pope is soft on crime.
I think another reason many Americans Feel Bad About the Economy: There is a constant barrage of information indicating to the casual observer that people who run scams and lie and refuse to play by the rules aren't just going unpunished, they're *making way more money than you are* as a result.
Silverman on Security@silvermansecurity.bsky.social · 4mo agoWhen the basis of the entire US economy is predicated on not prosecuting elite white collar crime & elevating those at the the top of the worst, but legitimized white collar scams to positions of unlimited wealth & power, all that’s left is for everyone else to try to do their own scams.
