Ginny Thomas’s house is flying the flag upside down again, her signal to Trump that “we need to fight like hell or we won’t have a country anymore”

Insurers have to spend 80-85% of premium $$ on healthcare services. It’s called the Medical Loss Ratio

It’s the specialty docs, hospitals and drug companies making huge profits

“President Trump’s going to be in office six months from now, so I’m not worried about it,” Banuelos said, according to a court transcript.

You have to read between the lines here to imagine what President Trump is proposing. But, it sounds like it may be a plan for health accounts that could be used for insurance that doesn’t cover pre-existing conditions, which could create a death spiral in ACA plans that do.

Don’t let them off the hook

Excellent analysis. You’re the best in the biz

Actual 3D Chess?!!

Can you elaborate on why a 1 year extension “is EXACTLY what I and others have been demanding Dems *NOT* agree to, *especially* after Tuesday!”?

Textualist interpretation of "til death do us part" should be enough for SCOTUS to nullify all divorces, right?

I read it so you don’t have to

Louis Jacobson | Politifact thought it was important to regurgitate every lie told about Pelosi while pretending Pelosi is also a liar because she called Trump “obese”

A coalition that ranges from democratic socialists to neoconservatives, including a lot of energized liberals in between, is large and formidable.

A big pro-democracy tent. A united front. Any internal disagreements can be hashed out once the authoritarian emergency is over.

This really can work.

I was a lifelong WaPo subscriber and I miss reading journalism. I’ve considered trying the NYT again.

This is how it was adopted by the tech industry in the early 2000s. It was very helpful with my colleagues in India. I had no idea it was a proclamation of trans/non trans until probably a decade later. It didn’t exist on college campus in the mid 90s, even in sociology gender courses

Mandami must have the Epstein Files. Dershowitz’ underwear alibi is cooked

Why conflate Dick and Lizz?

Subsidy cliff is coming back, eh?

Nobody pays more for healthcare as a % of income than the 200k per year couple.

Same with college tuition.

the guy trying jiu jitsu for the first time gets an A for effort 🏅

80-85% is the MLR rule and it is enforced. 88-90 is the average actual for ACA plans. I don’t pretend to understand how all this works but the numbers are real.

ACA mandates insurers spend ~88–90¢ of every $1 they bring in from premiums on care. The problem is the price of healthcare services.

Medicare for All only works if the government mandates lower prices. The Insurance payment model sucks, but it’s not the reasons why healthcare is so expensive

The Economist’s anonymous journalist policy makes it impossible to publicly shame the clowns that write fascist fluffing nonsense.

AI companies: Give us your electricity so we can steal your jobs.

What’s your VA prediction?

Pardon the red coded term.

Non trans kids are being confused by all the trans talk, especially girls. Not healthy.
