“I’m trying to figure out what leverage we actually have. What leverage do we have? Republicans have repeatedly lectured America — they control the House, the Senate and the presidency. It’s their government.” —House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries

Sounds like you're as stumped as he is. Gosh, what can we do?

I don't know about the hardware, but I think the software is substantially older than that — dates back to the 1960s. I might be wrong, though, and I'm too stoned right now to Google it.

I'm also an old person who yells, and I agree.

Mostly, though, if we're going to 'modernize' the system (with or without AI), it needs to be done smartly and methodically, and by people who aren't philosophically opposed to Social Security's existence.

Tracking people across the internet ought to be forbidden by law.

Thanks! The site won't win any awards, but with an URL I can do daily updates, and additions when a show's added on short notice, and corrections when I've made boo-boos!

I tried, but can't bear to read the "article," which, being Axios, is merely a collection of blips instead of actual writing and journalism.

As for the headline, I'm pleased to see plenty of common sense in the comments here. Seeing an MD in America is difficult, expensive, time-consuming, often preachy, and frequently not worth the co-pay if you're lucky enough to have insurance. "Health care providers" have made it such a hoop-jumpy and slow process, that when I'm ill seeing a doctor is about my fourth choice.

What the fuck and why? What's to be gained from this, for The Atlantic or its editor, Jeffrey Goldberg? Shit-can this dumb idea right here and now, please.

Rebuke away, ya dumb fuck Dems. What the young Mr Hogg is attempting — funding primary challengers to the most empty-suit Democrats — might be futile, might not, but you gotta respect the effort.

"Wake up, wake up," he shouts at the corpse of the Democratic Party, which will probably wake up only long enough to smack him away, and then go back to sleep.

There are enough genuine outrages in America these days, I was inclined to think nothing much of this one.... until Franklin Graham weighed in on the store owner's side. Nothing more needs to be researched or considered; as much as Donald Trump or Elon Musk, if Franklin Graham is on your side you're on the wrong side.

Good stuff, thanks.

That would be glorious. One down, 49 to go, and the District of Columbia.

That's not a "slip-up" unless there's an apology and the info is taken down, which hasn't happened, and won't. It's a DHS doxing.

Court orders can be either followed or appealed, but in the entire history of me reading the news, I don't remember ever seeing a headline about someone "resisting" court orders.

That headline is a masterwork of obfuscation, softening an obvious fact by hiding it behind "fears grow".

Probably not. It's the kind of thing Wikipedia would mention.
