the idea you're going to reshore this type of manufacturing is laughable. wheat timbs would cost $500 if made here. basic vans would be $200. a north face jacket would be $750. americans are not paying that kind of money for clothes and shoes.

Our team has two incredible, full-time professionals—Mary and Ebonie—dedicated to dealing with insurance. They advocate for our patients, so our patients can focus on healing. This week? They’ve been on repeat calls with the same insurer, trying to add procedure codes so

I stepped out of a new patient’s consult to have this peer to peer call at the only time offered to me. You may remember an insurance company recently insisting that they’d never interrupt patient care for insurance matters. Reality Check…it happens all the time. The doctor I

Developments in the last 24 hours suggest we may be headed for serious financial crisis wholly induced by US government tariff policy.

No, JFK brought in generically bright people with good educations from other fields who pushed aside the *actual subject matter experts*. The whole point of "the best and the brightest" is the opposite of what most people think it is.

Elected Republicans are coalescing around the talking point that CBO's tax cut estimates are complete fiction and that tax cuts pay for themselves. Well, CBO's 2018 and 2019 revenue estimates - which included the previous year's TCJA - were ... 99.5% accurate. 🧵

Trump's tariffs have had exactly the opposite of the intended effect. 40% of American manufacturers have delayed or cancelled investments.

The living standards we enjoy The public services we use The pensions we need The culture we cherish And the social connections we value Are heavily linked to socialising, coupling & future workers Thank you to Charlotte Ivers The Times and The Sunday Times for sharing my analysis 🧵

“He’s a U.S. citizen!” and now he’s missing. 20-year-old Adrian Andrew Martinez’s family says he was trying to stand up for someone being harassed by ICE agents in a Pico Rivera parkinglot. The footage shows at least six agents swarming him. He struggles, but doesn’t lay hands

This is the definitive rendition of our National Anthem. Whitney Houston didn’t just sing it—she made us feel it. Patriotism. Pride. Purpose. A moment that reminded us why we love this country. Happy Birthday, America. 🇺🇸

When I got engaged to my husband, a close family member sneered: "Why are you taking in a stray dog?" I’m from a highly educated family, he owns a skate shop. This Obama speechwriter's elitism shines through despite his eventual realization that he can tolerate his Joe Rogan

“Yet as Google does the Googling, humans no longer visit the websites from which the information is gleaned. Similarweb, which measures traffic to more than 100m web domains, estimates that worldwide search traffic … fell by about 15% in the year to June” economist.com/business/2025/…

This is how the old Soviet Union managed its statistics: Make sure the people doing the statistics knew what was expected of them.
