Why was a California sheriff investigating the vote from last year’s redistricting referendum based on claims made by an “election integrity” group? A not-so-deep dive into his extreme anti-voting social media posts may reveal that answer — and we rallied just a few up 👇

Why was a county sheriff investigating a state special election based upon a little-known activist group’s claims of a discrepancy between ballots cast and ballots counted?

Our government shot & killed an American citizen during a stop last year. We’re only finding out about it now. Where’s the outrage ⁦‪from Senators Cornyn‬⁩ & ⁦‪Cruz‬⁩ ? This is their constituent. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Texas U.S. citizen was fatally shot by an immigration agent last year during a stop, new records show
The death of Ruben Ray Martinez, 23, would mark the earliest of at least six deadly shootings by federal officers since the start of the Trump administration's nationwide immigration crackdown.

Associating with Jeffrey Epstein or attempting a coup will land you in prison in the UK or South Korea. In America, doing both lands you in the White House.

More and more of these warehouse concentration camps are being stealthily planned without the communities themselves having much of a warning. We need to make sure we’re shutting these down where we can

At least 20 communities with large warehouses are stealth targets for massive ICE detention centers. 'There was absolutely no warning' | Fortune
In many cases, mayors, county commissioners, governors and members of Congress learned about ICE’s ambitions only after the agency bought or leased space for detainees.

Trump issued an EO aimed at increasing production of glyphosate, a chemical in weedkiller that has been linked to cancer. He’s also directed the rollback of environmental protections over our air, water, and how much pollution corporations can produce. “Make America Healthy Again.”

Admittedly, I only found out about this from a reel someone posted of the State Election Board creating a motion and voting on it to issue a letter of reprimand to the PAC. There are TWO unique articles about it. And the one doesn't use the phrase "voter fraud" anywhere in it 🙄

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice. The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

In the United States, the three levels of government spend more taxpayer money ($US 7,350/person) to provide healthcare to less than half the population than Canada does ($6,700) to cover everyone in the country. And Canada gets better results. ⸤1110a⸥
Healthcare Spending in the United States and Canada
(All values in US dollars)

US: $17,000/person | Canada: $6,700/person

US spending breakdown
Public Sector (Federal and state governments, 2024):
  • $866 B on Medicare to cover 62 million; $13,675/person
  • $900 B on Medicaid to cover 84 million; $10,380/person
  • $71 B on Veteran’s Health to cover 6.3 million; $11,269/veteran
  • $23 B on CHIP (Children) to cover 3.2 million; $7190/child
  • $7 B on IHA (Indian Health) to cover 1.6 million; $4,375/person
$1.9 T to cover 157 million people ($12,100/beneficiary; $5,588/capita)
  • $600 B State and local government expenditures
$2.5 T to cover 330 million people in the States legally; $7,350/capita

Private Sector:
  • $2.8 T private insurance and out-of-pocket; $8,240/capita

Overall Expenditure:
  • $5.8 T total healthcare spending for 340 million people; $17,059/capita

Total US spending is $17,000/person, including taxes, private insurance premiums, copays, deductibles and insurer profit.

Canada spending breakdown
  • $6,480 ($US)/person universal single-payer program
  • $6,700 ($US)/person total, including dental, pharmaceuticals, eyeglasses, hearing aids

Canada has better outcomes
✅ +3.4 years life expectancy
✅ 26% lower infant mortality
✅ 30% lower under-5 mortality
✅ 50% lower maternal mortality
✅ 26% lower age-standardized cancer mortality (deaths per 100,000) 
✅ 30% lower age-standardized heart disease mortality (deaths per 100,000) 
✅ 42% lower obesity prevalence (adults, BMI ≥ 30)

BOTTOM LINE: Canada as a whole spends less per capita ($US 6,700) to cover 100% of its population than the various US governments spend ($US 7,350) to cover about half its population, while getting better outcomes.
