I have become very suspicious. An opinion survey about my experience with my doctor over the last 6 months has me wondering how they will use this information to cut my benefits, deport my doctor, or reduce what Medicare will pay to providers or cover.

Not once did I think my answers might result in any improvement in my Medicare experience, and not one question was asked about my claims experience, sufficiency of Medicare coverage, or anything that would have me thinking this was a full scope introspection meant to improve Medicare.

A GOP-led purge of Democratic voters is underway in New Jersey — and voters are fighting back in court. In one stark example, a Democratic voter received a “Gilmore Letter” questioning their eligibility to vote. Their Republican spouse did not: https://demdock.com/4yCxbOh

NEW: DHS says it has “no plans” to buy more taxpayer-funded pro-Trump propaganda ads, but groups challenging the ads say that doesn’t cut it. They want a federal court to issue an immediate block on the ads.

The Trump administration will start selecting lawyers for unaccompanied minors. Meaning the judges work for Donald Trump, the prosecutors work for Trump, and now the attorneys representing children will work for Trump. This is a rigged system that will result in more untold horrors for these kids.

If you watch only ONE thing today, make it this. 😂 Mr. Newberger has turned the promise of a $5K payday into a full-blown musical spectacle, & it’s absolutely BRILLIANT. The lyrics. The visuals. The sheer absurdity of it all. Be sure to turn up the sound. This is political satire at its finest. 👇🎶
