Good job, MAGA dumbfucks. You voted for a Russian asset who will destroy America from the inside while antagonizing all of America’s allies. And you dumbfucks are STILL too dumb to see what’s happening. But you’ll eventually figure it out. When it’s too late.

If you are a small to med size business, would you rather buy health insurance from the big insurance companies, or from a new Non Profit Healthcare program offered by the biggest Unions ?

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and offer them to small to medium size businesses. Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations . Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ? Thoughts ?

Is Musk a Nazi? He has repeatedly boosted the account of Peter Sweden, a former Holocaust denier and rabid antisemite. Sweden claims to have moderated his views, but should we believe him? There is definitely evidence suggesting that Musk is a Nazi.

Glory for a moment in the fevered desperation of the Tory press to have someone do worse than their very own, very special, out-of-control firehose, Liz Truss, spraying them all forever with her mess. No. Not this time, you silly twats. The wait for a replacement goes on… (Private Eye)
