The barbaric cruelty continues: Since Congress Let Obamacare Subsidies Expire, Millions Are Dropping Coverage > The only solution? Passing Senate Bill 1506/HR 3609 - Single Payer Universal Healthcare. Learn the bills below.

Nope. The only true solution to the failed US approach to, and model of, healthcare? Passing Senate Bill 1506/HR 3609. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Connect the dots Americans. Are you grasping the scam yet? UnitedHealth Group’s stock surged this week, rising over 9%. The 2026 Q1 earnings are extracted from purging plans and accelerated Denial of Care. Revenues hit $111.7 billion. The 2027 Medicare Advantage rate increase is another reason.

My grl @aoc.bsky.social here sayin’ it, as ever. So much to address here, but the most important fact RFK actually said (albeit brainlessly)? “They have no options.” Senate Bill 1506/HR 3609 is the option. And, ahem, Ai will not prevent upcoding. youtu.be/E4ruVRwkKGY

More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.” (Published July 2025)

Why has Trump nominated Dr. Nicole Saphier to be US Surgeon General after his previous quack was sunk? B/c Saphier opposed the Affordable Care Act and opposes Single Payer Universal Healthcare. Yet another bleach-blonde puppet to enable The Partnership for America’s Healthcare Future lobby.

The 2026 candidates who are rolling big have fierce momentum for one reason & one reason only: They’ve publicly endorsed Single Payer Universal Healthcare/Senate Bill 1506. Take note. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social @jamestalarico.bsky.social @marypeltola.com @peggyflanagan.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social

Of all the hollow bleached blonde puppets whipped about by Trump & Miller, the most comedically tragic is Karoline Leavitt. She tries so very hard—day in, and day out—to present with agency as a 20-something…and yet, the joke is on her: She has none.

If Senate Bill 1506 / HR 3609 were enacted, Alaskans from border to border would be granted lifelong health maintenance including tele-healthcare. Learn more about the bills. Everyone would have healthcare from the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts to the redwood forests and Gulf Stream waters.

At a recent Senate hearing, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., referred to ibogaine as the most promising treatment for PTSD and depression “that anybody’s ever seen.” The best cure for despair and depression would be to get this administration out of power.

Is it time to enact Senate Bill 1506? Single Payer Universal Healthcare? Or, will Americans choose 45 more years of preventable harm and death by the commercial health insurance industry and lobby?

Michigan! It’s time for Health First / One Health governance. Get on board and end the era of quid pro quo harm.

Ran into a retired Notre Dame law professor in SW Michigan at a cafe. In-line chat turned into an hour-long lunch about Amy Coney Barrett who he said "was one of my best students." We chatted about child abuse by Catholic Church Corporation priests; hypocrisy by Barrett; male-dominated violence+++

For 45 years Americans have suffered at the hands of Managed Care and a failed healthcare model that prioritizes wealth of the few over health of the many. When will Americans support Senate Bill 1506/HR 3609 and end the cruelty? www.commonwealthfund.org/publications...

When Americans say "The land of the free" and cite "freedom," are they aware that by 2017, 33 countries were considered fully consolidated democracies? The peak year was 2006, when there were 35 and since then, two countries --Belgium and the US--have slipped from the top tier.

Janet Mills is out. Now in Maine it is Status Quo Quid Pro Quo vs. Modern Health First / One Health. Who will you vote for? Entrenchment or Single Payer Universal Healthcare. It's time. Time to flip the hill and bring in modern thinking and fresh air.

Data & Ai ninjas: How many times has Senator Bernie Sanders said or written the following since 1990? "We are the only major country on earth not to guarantee health care to all people..." Can you surf and sieve and get back to me? #SocialistRhetoric

Largely because Americans have wars of choice and perpetual warfare fatigue. Defense, we support. Reactive, cyclical violence without diplomacy, we reject. Count the ambassador and diplomat positions that are vacant. Hegseth, go home.
