Patrick Radden Keefe is an exceptionally talented writer. I learn so much from each one of his books.

I would also highly recommend his book, "Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty." It's the absolutely gut-wrenching story of the Sackler family profiting off opioids. I bought the audiobook & had to take a break for a day or 2 a few times bcz of the sadness and anger it generated.

The precedent that is being set is that the division of power is critical to democracy and if the House and the Senate don't do their jobs, democracy dies and corruption takes over. Trump's power would be nothing if the House and Senate were doing their jobs.

Hopefully, Floridians don't vote her into office. It would be really embarrassing to have two US Senators representing FL that are crooks. Rick Scott and Ashley Moody would be two peas in a pod.

"James Uthmeier,...now Florida’s attorney general, was “in a position of authority” over those who arranged the $10 million settlement that later went to political committees, the grand jury found. U.S. Sen. Ashley Moody, then the state’s attorney general, advised a deputy to sign off on the deal."

I think they are going to hurt some 'real' people while they try to get rid of fraudsters but I do think the fraudsters are out there. I don't understand what the actual scam is (commissions for agents?) but I got ACA health ins mail for 2+ yrs for a family who doesn't/hasn't lived at my address.

It was just the weirdest damn thing & it felt like fraud. No one could get to the bottom of it. Then mailings from FL DCF started to show up. Filed a fraud report w/them, too. Very hard to find ANYONE who cared. It wasn't identity theft so it didn't really affect me other than as a taxpayer.

I called the insurance companies, the Marketplace, and the police to try to get someone to look at what seemed to be fraud. The policyholders couldn't be contacted because my address and phone number was being used on their account. One of the company fraud reps said they had never filed a claim.

Regarding the story about the government cancelling ACA policies, for almost 3 years I had ACA-related mail come to my house to people who didn't live and who had never lived at my house. My phone number was also being used because I got texts from the policies.

You can't make this stuff up. Our FL AG is bullying the Catholic Church because they require students who attend their schools (which the State of FL now pays for BTW) to be vaccinated.

It wasn't the alligator that killed her. Not wearing her seatbelt is likely why she was ejected from her vehicle and got run over. Wear your seatbelt because we have alligators on our freeways! Yes, it happened in Florida. I'm sorry for her family.

DeSantis rigged the system. "State wildlife commissioners, all appointed by Gov. DeSantis, last year structured rules for future bear hunts — including setting kill quotas — so the state agency’s executive director, Roger Young, could act w/o listening to public opinion or requiring board input."

Everyone is living so close to the edge financially. I can't really go on strike because I'm retired. I guess I can reduce spending to a trickle but I don't want neighbors to lose their jobs.

As should James Uthmeier and Ashley Moody, the FL US Senator appointed by DeSatin after Rubio went to work for Trump. Dem candidate, Angie Nixon, needs to win & boot Moody out of the Senate. We already have one Senator, Rick Scott, who is a crook. One is too many, two is nuts!
