STAGGERING: This new study of 133 countries is the first to estimate the impact of all USAID’s work. In 2 decades, it saved *92M* lives. Current cuts, if not reversed, are forecast to cost *14M* lives thru 2030. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

This isn’t about you. This is about the 17 million Americans whose health insurance you’re taking away. And after you turned your back on them to vote “YES”, you said your fellow House GOP should vote NO. Americans are going to suffer. YOU admit that. And YOU supported it.

The FTC under Lina Khan has done things to help NORMAL people and prevent them from getting SCREWED over. Most people don't hear about this stuff, so here are some of the biggest wins and actions 🧵

Physicians in the United States are banned from owning hospitals. That’s not a conspiracy theory—it’s Section 6001 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), passed in 2010. Here’s how it happened: •Congress needed votes for the ACA. •The American Hospital Association (AHA) made a…

6/ We don't listen enough; we tell people what's good for them. And when progressives like Bernie aggressively go after the elites that hold people down, they are shunned as dangerous populists. Why? Maybe because true economic populism is bad for our high-income base. 😬

No other way to spin this than a narrow win. It's a big shift from 2020 for sure, but this isn't 1980 or 2008. When you look at dems in Congress, even less so. This was a narrow Trump win. He has no huge popular mandate. The people will turn on him fast.

I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one. I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one. I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them. I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.

Narcissism of the highest order. Is this election about Joe Biden preserving his hero complex or about stopping a fascist from rising to power? He needs to step aside and let another Democrat run against Trump.

I’d like to know why the @WashWizards suspended a reporter’s credentials for doing his job and merely reporting which players were on the billboard that they themselves hung up outside their stadium. This sort of management is why the wizards are the laughingstock of the league

"We're seeing a very stark divide between states that are actively making it harder to vote and then states that are aiming to expand voting access," @sara_d_carter, an attorney in the Brennan Center's Democracy Program, told USA TODAY.

Wall Street is paying 20-50% over asking price in some cases for single-family homes, squeezing out families. Congress needs to pass my bill to stop corporate landlords.

Great thread- most hospital board members were in Financial Activities or Professional/Business Services and only a small minority were clinicians. It's really no surprise that our healthcare system puts profits over the lives of human beings.
