Hamilton: He didn't just turn some things over to collections every once in a while. He had his personal lawyer file suit against 700 patients. There was a woman who he left part of the placenta in the womb and she had to go back and he removed that. Then he billed her again for the same procedure.
Every place I go, the doctors come up to me and say, this is not what we do as doctors. We don't sue 700 of our patients. I've never met a doctor who sued 700 patients.
But here's the thing that really gets me. He goes to Washington, DC, and he takes health care away from 60,000 Kansans… What’s going to happen with those people? Are they going to be sued or arrested?

I'm a cancer survivor and the Affordable Care Act saved my life. I voted to defend my health care, and yours. #BlueWaveVoteToday
Have you voted yet? What's your plan to vote today?

Haley Stevens is such a sore loser that she’s willing to help Republicans keep the senate in order to try and screw over the man who beat her, and thus not hold Trump accountable
Shameful.

Democrats are masters at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, but I did not have butthurt Congresswomen who lost their primaries on my bingo card as this year's challenge.
MICHIGAN.
TEXAS.
GEORGIA
ALASKA.
OHIO.
NORTH CAROLINA.
KANSAS.
MAINE.
Let's fucking go. 🗳️ 🌊 🌊

.@JamesTalarico: This election is about whether you want a senator who puts money in your pocket — or puts money in his own.
This election is about whether you want a senator who serves you or serves his billionaire mega-donors.
And Ken Paxton has the ultimate mega-donor.
We just found out that the richest man in the world is bankrolling the effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and stop this movement we’ve built in our state.
Elon Musk wants our land, he wants our water, he wants our tax dollars, and he wants his very own personal U.S. senator. He’s trying to buy Texas.
But on November 3rd, we’ll deliver a crystal clear message to the world’s first trillionaire: Texas is not for sale.

“As of this morning, many members of our team have resigned, including myself. We encourage everyone to exercise their civic duty, vote for Abdul and Democrats up and down the ballot, and stand up for the America we all believe.”
New: Statement from Haley Stevens’ chief of staff Justin German confirms many of her team have resigned & they back Abdul El-Sayed for #MISen
“We are shocked and heartbroken by Congresswoman Stevens’ decision to support Mike Rogers.”
Powerful

Nope. Not a bit of that is normal.

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet. He just seems to have trouble pronouncing it when it's my name.
I don't care how he pronounces my name. I don't even care that he remembers my whole name. Because he can just go on and call me senator after November.

Data center companies want more than 24,000 acres of your public land.
That's the count from the Center for Western Priorities, which just mapped every data center application sitting on BLM land.
35 applications, spread across AZ, ID, NV, OR, UT and WY.
At least seventeen are data center campuses, and one of them, in UT, would be powered by 456 small nuclear reactors. Thirteen are the roads, water pipelines and power lines to feed them. Many list zero acres, so the real footprint is bigger.
BLM already approved one data center near Boulder City, NV, in June. This month it was thrown out after an appeals board found BLM likely broke federal environmental law. If that data center sat on city land, Boulder City would have collected roughly $2.3 million a year. On BLM land, it won't generate any revenue for the city. Now picture 35 applications on 24,000 acres.
Then there's what these places eat. Power first. In a Sept. 24 letter to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, 16 House Democrats warned that data centers could use up to 12% of all electricity in the U.S. by 2028, straining the grid and driving up energy prices.
Then water. U.S. data centers drank 17 billion gallons in 2023 just to stay cool, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory says that could double or even quadruple by 2028. Not to mention the wildlife and the land itself. Public lands are often tied to tribal lands and waters, so tribal communities are on the line too.
And the public? The Center for Western Priorities says there is no framework for environmental review, public input, or sending revenue back to taxpayers. Lauren Bogard, of the Center for Western Priorities, put it plainly: "Data centers are not like oil, gas, or minerals, which are extracted from public lands because that's where they exist."
Not that extracting oil, gas or minerals is good for public lands in any shape or form.
If you feel as strongly as I do about keeping data centers off our public lands, please fill out the easy form below. Tell Burgum to stop this dangerous precedent and protect our shared public lands. Then share it with your friends. It's in the first reply. Thank you.

One of the best ads I’ve seen. This applies to all of America. Texas take heed, your choice is very clear - hope and determination vs corruption.

Energy Secretary Wright is campaigning with Ken Paxton today in Texas. A reminder that government officials partaking in campaign events should not be normal.
