I am 100% convinced @AnthemBCBS does not care if their patients live or die. Insurance is built fully on bottom lines for shareholders. My dad has been too sick for too long and caring for him is bad for business. So they stopped. Bad insurers are predatory and unaccountable.

A follow up to this hate letter to @AnthemBCBS who offered help in this thread. They've now denied hospital coverage to my dad for a 3rd time while he continues battling multiple SERIOUS health conditions and is in need of near constant medical care. Not just bad, it is evil.

My dad is battling MULTIPLE unresolved health conditions. Every doctor he’s seen is adamant he needs to be hospitalized. He cannot walk, dress, or bathe himself. And @AnthemBCBS declines to cover his hospital stay because THEIR doctor WHO HAS NEVER SEEN HIM says he’s good.

44,000 Black women got on a call last night and raised $1.5M for Kamala Harris. I’ve barely seen this covered outside of Black press. But 300 DONORS on a call makes a page 1 article for the @nytimes. The disproportionate coverage is a failure of democracy.

It gets ever more inexplicable that @SenatorDurbin & @SenSchumer seem to think there is no value in the Senate investigating conflicts on #SCOTUS

I really wish rich, out-of-touch folks who nothing about education would just stop. 1) Read the fine print. THIS IS A GOVT VOUCHER PROGRAM. Voucher programs have not been shown to improve results for poor Black children because most cannot get into high-quality private schools.

Jay-Z's Roc Nation will spearhead an educational campaign in Philadelphia that helps students K-12 from low-income households secure about $300 million in scholarships to attend the city's private schools. Events will be held by Roc Nation to bring awareness to Pennsylvania

Ugh, these stories of black billionaires doing the least or even causing harm with the best intentions hurt my heart. Jay-Z could be overhauling whole educational systems instead of helping a handful of lucky students opt out of already underfunded public schools.

My atonement for participating in Israel's ethnic-cleansing state is fighting for the freedom of all those oppressed, including Palestinians. I'm running for Congress against Debbie Wasserman Schultz bc we need leaders who will stand up to injustice. https://t.co/tOG1GjC6QT

Appreciated this episode of The Daily on the ICC’s request for a warrant for the arrest of both Hamas leaders and Netanyahu. The conclusion- the diplomatic tide is increasingly turning on Israel.
