The Trump administration is in some ways best understood as a collection of people who had reputations of being successful and expose themselves to be barking idiots

Musk is a perfect front man for right wing Republicans. He does all the dirty work hey would be run out of office if they did it themselves, and they get to have plausible deniability about any of his worst actions while knowing they can just beg Trump to reverse course if the politics look bad

Trump taking a page from Erdogan's playbook: Mess up the economy due to your own poor decisions, double down, and then blame "foreign powers."

Obviously, if someone had been tipped off about Trump’s posts beforehand, they could have made millions, or even billions. And sure enough, a few hours before Trump announced the reserve, someone purchased $200 million in Ethereum and Bitcoin and made a killing. www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-cryp...

Trump’s "Crypto Reserve" is a world historical grift
Corruption doesn’t get much more blatant than this.

"Part of the intent of Musk’s playbook is to create confusion. These takeovers are meant to be very dramatic. Part of that is to filter out the workers he doesn’t want and to attract ones he does. He wants to scare away people." — @kateconger.com

Imagine if Joe Biden had reposted a liberal pundit saying ‘shut up about gas prices’ in 2022. It would have led the news, all of the news, for days, weeks, on end.

New in PN: How DOGE is running back Musk's Twitter takeover "The Twitter takeover is very much a blueprint for what Musk is doing in govt — from the cuts in cost to the layoffs to 'fork in the road stuff' emails offering resignations. It’s almost like he’s playing the hits." — @rmac.bsky.social

Why Australia has had only one mass shooting since 1996
By 2010, gun-related suicides had dropped by 74%, saving 200 lives a year, a fact that a study linked directly to the gun buy-back law.

That authorization process is one we should not be asking ins comps to do. That role should be performed by INDEPENDENT TPAs. With zero economic incentive to approve or deny. The first step is for self insured entities to use 3rd party TPAs and move away from insurance companies for this service

Their primary role is to make sure that there is not fraud by providers (think overuse of operations to inflate revenue , or services not covered by the plan the user is covered by and/or determine if care is "medically necessary "

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane. We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧵
