FBI Director Kash Patel spent the weekend partying with Sigal Chattah, the Israeli-born federal prosecutor who let Netanyahu pedophile Tom Alexandrovich AND the infamous Israeli biolab operator of Las Vegas abscond to Israel rather than face US charges.
Charges against Israeli biolab terrorist Ori Solomon were dropped by Israeli-born, Trump-appointed prosecutor Sigal Chattah.
Her appointment as prosecutor was ruled illegal last year, but Trump ignored it.
Chattah says this is because she “knows where the bodies are buried.”

The fucking audacity of Trump to spend taxpayer money on a shitty TV ad bragging that he’s “driving the warmongers out of Washington” WHILE HE’S WAGING AN ILLEGAL AND UNNECESSARY WAR IN IRAN...

This is extremely dark
🦔The Blue Cross Blue Shield Association says insurers paid out nearly $1 billion more than usual from AI-assisted hospital documentation in 2024-2025. Hospitals use AI to scan records and find secondary diagnoses that human reviewers missed. More diagnoses means higher reimbursements. But treatment levels haven't gone up.
BCBSA's SVP of data science said AI is "identifying more billable conditions, not sicker patients." Insurers now deploy their own AI to deny those same claims. Patients pay for both through higher premiums.
My Take
This might be the most American healthcare story I've ever read. Hospitals bought AI to find more things to bill for. Insurers bought AI to deny those bills. The technology cost money on each end and the tab went straight to patients through higher premiums. A billion dollars moved and no one got any healthier. The only thing that changed was the size of the invoices.
Two sides of a trillion-dollar industry found a new tool to fight over the same pool of money and the person in the hospital bed pays for all of it. Premiums go up, denials go up, and the AI vendors collect from everyone. If you want to know who AI works for, stop reading the press releases and look at where the money goes. In healthcare it went straight into the billing department.

Wish list:
Abolish #Lobbying
It’s way past time to overhaul
the Supreme Court. No more
lifetime appointments -
give them four years,
just like the president.

End #CitizensUnited
Abolish the #ElectoralCollege

Limit #CampaignSeason
Limit #CampaignSpending
#TermLimits for #SCOTUS
That would fix most of of it.

Lahn is running because he went to college to do this. He has worked his whole career to get to this point. Being a political operative. He knows how to dupe the people of Iowa. It started with him claiming he was an Iowa farmer when he never has.

it's a bold strategy, Cotton. Zach admits the @IowaGOP's agenda failed Iowa, but also promises to continue it. "Vote for me to keep ruining Iowa!"

All of those things are true, so I'll tell you what. I vote for Lahn if he comes out and admits that Kim Reynolds has been a complete failure. Deal? Because, it would be insanity to know all of those things and vote the party that got us here back into office.

Now just imagine you didn’t have the best health insurance that money could buy.
Susie Wiles reveals the brutal reality of fighting breast cancer while running Trump's White House — saying some days, just getting out of bed, getting dressed and going to work was its own test.
In a rare personal op-ed, the chief of staff described carrying the full weight of chemotherapy and one of Washington's most demanding jobs at the same time. The disease occupied her thoughts from the moment she woke up and sometimes even while she slept. Treatment took a toll on her stamina, mobility and focus, but she said work gave her a purpose beyond the scans and side effects.
After successful surgery, pathology showed no residual cancer. Wiles now faces the work of rebuilding what treatment took from her.

I’ve been seeing for a long time that we are raising a generation of rape culture.
The president of the United States is an adjudicated rapist UC how he treats women journalists screaming at them verbally abusing them. Be friending the Tate Brothers covering up the Epstein files. He’s given permission to an entire generation.

So,
so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish,
how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl,
year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

RC deWinter asked me to post this #poem so here it is
halftime
out wandering again
in the cold salt air night
nothing to see
on wet winter ground
i lift my eyes
to the unclouded canvas of sky
and there hangs a perfect half moon
