TheWebMachine @thewebmachine.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Turns out we had a mass shooting in Georgia yesterday where 2 were killed and 35 injured. I only found out about it due to the BBC's coverage.

TheWebMachine @thewebmachine.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The $90 checks are for those on Medicare; again, effectively a refund of "overpayment" by policyholders.

TheWebMachine @thewebmachine.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The $500 checks were refunds of overpaid Obamacare fees built into our plans, for those of us who did *not* receive subsidies. I *did* receive a $500 check the other day. It was merely a refund of what *I've paid* and it doesn't even cover one month of my $700/mo ins. premiums. 🤷♂️ 200

TheWebMachine @thewebmachine.bsky.social · 17/09/2026The People of Texas deserve to see this report NOW.
