The #UnitedStates #SupremeCourt is turning into a dictatorial #oligarchy of judges. As long as government is divided & gridlocked, which it is & has been for a long time, #SCOTUS wields unchecked power to dictate rights away & allow lawless politicians to evade #accountability.
If #Republicans do away with our #democracy, then the Supreme Court will make it legal.
The court's #corruption scandals, numerous & flagrant, show an institution that is controlled by a cabal of #fascists.

Medical debt is crushing for many families. Some relief has come with a wave of debt buyouts by county and city governments, charities and even fast-food restaurants that pay pennies on the dollar to clear enormous balances. But these buyouts are only a partial solution, and point to the need for the overall cost of health care to drop.

Please don't post this nonsense. Donald Trump doesn't have a "plan to end war."
Trump is Putin's agent. Period. When Putin started this war on Ukraine, Trump praised Putin, and suggested that the US should similarly invade Mexico. Trump's own NatSec Advisor confirmed that Trump will withdraw the US from NATO. Trump himself said he'd encourage Putin to invade our NATO allies.
