Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

Even when/if you do switch part D plans make sure to check that your prescriptions don’t have a quantity limit or prior authorization.

Dear People On Medicare, BEFORE YOU VOTE. It is Medicare Open Enrollement, go to medicare.gov & check your Part D RX plan for 2027 vs. 2026. Mine went up 3x the amount in a YEAR. That is because of Donald Trump & RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz REMEMBER that when you CAST your BALLOT!🗳️💙

Polish women took to the streets in more than 20 cities and towns to protest the lack of access to abortion. The goverment has failed to fulfill its promise to relax Poland’s strict abortion laws. The protesters said the recent moves to ease the law are a meaningless ploy to get votes.

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

Top health care companies in the Fortune 500: United Health: #3 CVS Health: #6 Cigna: #14 One way they did it? By buying up every part of the health care system—and squeezing you dry. You shouldn't have to worry about going broke when you get sick. Let's break up Big Medicine.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

NOT A DRILL Trump just ordered the DOJ to challenge the Alaska Senate election results before a single vote is counted. Here’s the shady as hell part. Only if the Dem wins. Mary Peltola is challenging Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan & Alaska could determine which party controls the Senate.

I seriously hope people are checking their part d plans during Medicare open enrollment!

Mine went up 3x for 2026 and now they have dropped our market for 2027, so I have to try and find a new plan that covers my meds and local pharmacy. --They are seriously trying to off older people. Or at a minimum they plan to strip us of every dollar we have. +Vote Blue up and down the ballot.

The European Council has expressed its deep regret over the U.S. announcement to impose sanctions against the ICC and has urged to reverse them. The EU will use the next six months for dialogue, to find a solution and explore what more we can do to help the Court.

EU Member States are serious about protecting the International Criminal Court and a world governed by international law. In The Hague, I met ICC President Tomoko Akane to convey the EU’s strong support for the Court, its judges, and their work.

The Sakharov Prize recognises the ICC’s vital work in giving victims of the gravest crimes a voice. The Court must remain able to pursue justice independently, free from pressure or intimidation.

They’ve already started. They filed a suit today to effectively throw out Alaska’s election results if Dan Sullivan (the incumbent) doesn’t win
