What amazes me is that a completely mentally incapacitated Joe Biden as President with a Democratic controlled Congress right now would be infinitely better for this country than what we have. It’s an amazing indictment on the bribery, incompetence, and lying that wafts thru the White House currently.
Do you think Biden’s candidacy could have survived another debate? What do you think Trump would have done if Biden had stayed in the race but refused another debate?
Biden was never going to win re-election, and the people who hid him from the public save for very short very controlled appearances for the last couple of years of his presidency did the world a huge disservice

If the state is forcing this then they should be forced to cover all the medical bills along with the health care of the child should it survive, which apparently is far from guaranteed.
I didn’t read the article. Is the state mandating this or is it the hospital lawyers?

I have a super unpopular opinion:
I actually think Sanders is going to be a great QB in the league (top 10 QB, if not an MVP candidate one day) and think he’s going to have a 10-year+ career. He’s impressed me with his positive attitude with all the chaos that’s happened and he doesn’t seem to take himself too seriously IMO. If prediction markets would let us buy a stake in a players career he’d be a huge value buy for me, based on how he’s pretty much been buried before playing a snap.
Counterpoint: he was drafted by the Browns

If the Quinn Ewers thread keeps opening up on your computer and forcing you to post on it, try shutting down and restarting your system. That should clear up the problem. If not, your computer may have a virus.

That cultural aspect is broadly eastern. Few are better in the world at it than Persians, but Indians, Pakistanis, Afghans....they all bring that to the table.
If you know what mindset you're dealing with when you begin your negotiations, you can account for it and do just fine.

UnitedHealth Group CEO Andrew Witty stepping down. Under Witty, United accelerated its use of AI to wrongly deny more patient healthcare claims (with 90% error rate) and preyed on seniors through committing Medicare Advantage fraud
So he’s running for Senate?

Poors suck down 50 years of capital's anti-union propaganda, get mad about the income/wealth distribution in this country, then vote for a charlatan blaming foreigners.
Kinda makes sense why they’re still poor

And there are companies that can pull this off. They don't have or need unions. And then there are companies where they can't pull this off (for a variety of reasons). They get unions. It's self correcting, to an extent.
And if your argument is "well, you can just quit and stick it to them" - think about that from the perspective of an employee living paycheck to paycheck. That's just not a feasible solution.
Yes but those companies who can “pull it off” only act that way because of the existence of unions

Or maybe… I don't know… Have an environment where people don't feel the need to have somebody else represent them. I know that iis an affront to everything some of you fuckers believe in.
it's also no surprise the most unionized areas are the most left-leaning, in the country-

The social contract has to work from the top down. When the top throws it out it’s simply a matter of time until the masses assume the responsibility of enforcing it

Did Grover Cleveland travel every weekend in the statue of liberty? Was it gifted to his “presidential library” so he can continue using it every weekend to golf? It’s a fucking monument.

On 2/5/2025 at 9:46 PM, atomheartbevo said:Somebody’s bottom line appears to be affected. Going after an Austin plastic surgeon and maybe others on social media. @Ghost of LL and @TwiceHorn and @South Austin and others, thoughts? It’s the law firm that helped get almost $800 million out of Fox News, so I wonder if this is going beyond one plastic surgeon.
UnitedHealth Group Inc. has hired a prominent defamation law firm to counter what it sees as inaccurate and irresponsible social media posts about the company’s practices.
Clare Locke, an Alexandria, Virginia-based boutique law firm, is working for UnitedHealth, the company confirmed. A doctor “is using her social media following to perpetuate inaccuracies, which is irresponsible, unethical and dangerous,” UnitedHeath said in a statement.
The hiring shows the biggest US health insurer is pushing back against public statements it views as false following the high-profile death of an executive. Clare Locke is best known for representing Dominion Voting Systems Inc. in a landmark $787.5 million defamation settlement with Fox Corp.'s Fox News.
Social media platforms lit up with criticisms and even hatred of health insurers following the Dec. 4 murder of Brian Thompson, the chief executive officer of the company’s UnitedHealthcare unit, outside an investor conference in New York. Luigi Mangione, who had allegedly decried health industry practices, faces murder charges in Manhattan.
Elisabeth Potter, an Austin, Texas, plastic surgeon, claimed on Instagram Jan. 7 that UnitedHealth denied an in-patient stay after surgery related to cancer. “I had to scrub out mid-surgery to call United, only to find that the person on the line didn’t even have access to the patient’s full medical information, despite the procedure already being pre-approved,” Potter said in the post.
One of Potter’s attorneys, Jessica Underwood, said Potter received a Jan. 13 letter from Clare Locke demanding that she correct her posts, apologize to UnitedHealth and condemn threats of violence that the law firm said resulted from the posts.
But Underwood, of the law firm Nix Patterson, said Potter’s statements about the insurer were truthful. “Dr. Potter will not be silenced by UnitedHealthcare’s attempts to threaten and harass her,” Underwood said.
UnitedHealth said in its statement that it had previously approved coverage of the care the patient received, including coverage of an overnight stay. “Dr. Potter’s claims that she was called out of surgery are false,” the company said. “There are no insurance related circumstances that would require a physician to step out of surgery and it would create potential safety risks if they were to do so.”
Clare Locke’s letter to Potter was signed by Tom Clare, who founded the firm in 2014 with his wife and former fellow Kirkland & Ellis partner Elizabeth “Libby” Locke.
Firm partner Jered Ede also signed the letter. Before joining the firm, Ede served as chief legal officer for Project Veritas, the conservative nonprofit that goes undercover to expose what it sees as wrongdoing.
The truth is an absolute defense against slander and libel. In my unfortunately extensive dealings with United I definitely believe that happened just the way she says it did
And as someone who did a necessary fracture surgery today that had been delayed for more than 2 weeks on a united patient, and who fully expects to get an initial denial for a surgery scheduled for this Friday, let me unequivocally say fuck United Healthcare

Joe Biden 2024 thread - Dark Brandon Where Art Thou?

The dems should have held him to his campaign promise of being one and done. As soon as it was clear he was not going to do that voluntarily they should have exposed him and forced the issue when a true primary was still feasible
