I don't think that the Republican Party is so much the problem any more than the non-oppositional Democratic Party that's at least as beholden to Private Equity and the rest of the institutional-class parasites. This might spell the end of the GOP once people fully realize - the efforts to recast and deflect from it are already underway; those tactics might not succeed this time - and after the total collapse not just for Society but for the entire national economy, that this massive, murderous pointless plunder will bring about. It would almost be worth the final end to the Party of Reaganbushes, but not quite: There will be very much blood. Remember the names of each of the villains - before the midterm elections that will immediately precede the wave of hospital and clinic closures from the final nail, the Big Beautiful End to Healthcare for at least 14,000,000 human beings. First there was the 21-20% rate increases in so-called "private insurance" that many are only now discovering, followed by this heinous theft of the so-called state credits or subsidies which fund the Marketplace. TRIPLE WHAMMY. Taking all the existentially vital services for which we've already paid and providing nothing in return. #Feudalism and #plutocracy are #thepoint.

Gov. Sarah Huckabee & her spy colluding dad, Mike Huckabee, are celebrating “bringing jobs” to Arkansas via an Israel Iron Dome facility

Except…it will only bring 30 jobs (no doubt Israel is exporting employees here) & it costs Arkansas heavily in tax credits & grants 🥴

The people of have suffered mightily for a long time now, for the 's vile and

And unfortunately, their suffering looks to go on for quite awhile

It's bleak

And it's partly because of a corrupt feeble incompetent

Even from a selfish strategy point of view, the should help Ukraine. The problem lies when the financial interests of craven take precedence, aided by a sea of brainwashed that votes for them

They bought #HealthInsurance promoted by #Trump. Then they needed surgery.

The cheap #health #insurance promoted by Trump officials has a catch.

Some states have banned “short-term” insurance plans with limited coverage, & consumer advocates have warned of the drawbacks.

…The [forced] treatment-first approach, embodied by #Trump’s plan, pledges swifter action to address what it calls the “root causes” of #homelessness, like drug abuse & mental illness. But it risks consigning to worse destitution & danger those who cannot or do not comply. It also does not address another root cause of homelessness, soaring #housing costs [‼️].

“There are people who have been living in those units for 5 years, 8 years,” said Ann Oliva, the chief executive of the National Alliance to End #Homelessness, an advocacy group. “No one can wrap their head around the idea that #HUD is about to kick 170,000 #vulnerable people out of their homes. People don’t know what’s about to hit them.”

By cutting #aid for permanent #housing by TWO-THIRDS next year, the plan risks a sudden end of support for most of the people the Continuum places in such housing nationwide, beginning as soon as January. All are #disabled — a condition of the aid — & many are 50 or older [WTF?]. The document does not explain how they would find housing.

It also tells consular officials that whenever an applicant is seeking to use finances to satisfy #PublicCharge requirements, they should request to view the applicant’s bank & financial documents, evidence of their assets, checking, savings, brokerage, trust funds & retirement accounts.

Among the #medical conditions that could disqualify a #visa applicant are chronic conditions; obesity; high blood pressure; cardiovascular, metabolic & neurological diseases; depression; anxiety; & mental health conditions that can require [in the admin’s words] “hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of care,” the cable says.

#Immigrants seeking entry into the #US already undergo a medical exam by a physician who’s been approved by a US Embassy. They are screened for communicable diseases, like tuberculosis, & asked to disclose any history of drug or alcohol use, mental health conditions or violence. They’re also required to have a number of vaccinations [don’t tell #RFKJr].

#Immigration policy experts say the latest guidance could reduce the number of #immigrant & non-immigrant #visas granted & could disproportionately affect some groups of foreigners seeking access to the #US, such as older adults & people with low incomes.

The cable was sent from #State Dept headquarters to every US Embassy & Consulate around the world.
