Limits on care denials in Medicare stall again
Efforts to streamline the prior authorization process in Medicare Advantage have come close in recent sessions of Congress before stalling over cost concerns. This year, one such measure — which would take steps to require insurers to cut down the time to make decisions and adopt electronic systems to smooth the process — was left out of the health package that was folded into the latest government funding deal.

‘One More Billionaire Front Group’: Centrist Dems Mocked Over New Initiative Led by Corporate Lobbyist
Centrist Democrats led by Cheri Bustos, a corporate lobbyist who previously headed her party’s campaign arm in the US House, are launching a policy and advocacy organization aimed at pressuring Democrats to embrace the kind of “pro-growth” deregulatory agenda associated with the so-called “abundance” movement.

Marco Rubio Is Deliberately Blocking Trump From Cuba Talks
A crisis is rapidly developing in Cuba, as the Trump administration’s efforts to block fuel from reaching the island have become increasingly effective since an executive order threatened tariffs on any country trading with Cuba. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has buckled under the pressure and halted oil deliveries to Cuba. Drop Site’s José Luis Granados Ceja reports on the catastrophic consequences of the energy starvation. Meanwhile, back in Washington, President Trump claims that negotiations are underway to resolve the standoff. That, it turns out, is simply false—a lie being told to him by Secretary of State Marco Rubio as part of his ambitious play to overthrow the Cuban government.

Project Starmer’s in meltdown – now to reverse its anti-democratic crusade
AS THE wheels come off the Starmer operation we need pressure from the left for policy change as sweeping as the personnel clear-out at No 10. The PM may not last long, but the culture of cynicism, greed and contempt for democracy personified by Peter Mandelson dominates the Parliamentary Labour Party (PLP). The authoritarianism and hostility to grassroots activism that defined the Starmer project from the beginning have spread from Labour to the country at large. Distrust of democracy was foundational to the Labour Together faction built by Morgan McSweeney, as detailed in accounts such as Paul Holden’s The Fraud. Labour MPs had already thrown their toys out of the pram over the mass membership’s choice of Jeremy Corbyn as leader, with most of the PLP voting no confidence in him in the “chicken coup” of 2016, only for Corbyn to win by a bigger margin in the ensuing contest. 2017’s general election saw Corbyn’s Labour increase its vote by three-and-a-half million on 2015 — it was by a huge margin the largest vote Labour has won this century — after which the schemers had to add the general public to the party membership on their list of politically unreliable actors.

Not surprising. Winston Churchill himself whines about “Judeo-Bolshevism” in the 1920s to manufacture popular support for Zionism as the “better” alternative.

>literal liberal wine moms: uwu we need to be careful not to spread antisemitism (which is uniquely evil and just another form of ethnic hatred) when attacking zionists and we need to be careful when addressimg the bourgeoisie

<redditor libs: kill all bourgeois pedo zionists, proletarian dictatorship NOW

FTFY

Antisemitism is the only form of bigotry that should be allowed on all websites.

>also not all pedos are bad!!
Where has anybody ever said this?

antisemitism is an excuse to deny oneself a comprehensive analysis of society, as lenin tells us.

Also I will always make the point that Judaism is NOT an Ethno-religion. This is just bullshit made up by Zionists and holds up to zero scrutiny whatsoever.
Judaism wasn't ethnic based in classical times.
Judaism was never ethnic based in medieval times (different Jewish ethnic groups existed from Ethiopians to Chinese to Ashkenazi)
"Jew" in European context = Ashkenazi.
Israel itself in pracitce doesn't view it as a ethno-religion. There is a real heirarchy of ethnicities in Israel with Ashkenazi being the top, Mizrahi trailing far behind, and groups like Ethiopian, Kaifeng etc basically considered LARPers. (despite Ethiopian Jews being arguably one of the earliest and unbroken Jewish groups)
Even the Nazis didn't target all Jews as a ethnicity, but Ashkenazi, other Jewish groups were largely ignored showing even more Jew = Ashkenazi.
If you believe Judaism is a ethnicity due to cultural practice, not all Jews have the same cultural practice (even among ashkenazi, russian saboteur comes from a Western jewish insult against Russian/Eastern European Jews) and if this were true, then if you put up a Christmas Tree surely you are Ethnically Christian. Christianity also holds all that accept Christ are of the same "nation" (ethnicity/people).
Pre-WW2 the idea Jews were all the same was seen as absurd by most Jews.
<there is not a Jewish nation. The members of my family, for instance, who have been in this country for generations, have no sort or kind of community of view or of desire with any Jewish family in any other country beyond the fact that they profess to a greater or less degree the same religion. It is no more true to say that a Jewish Englishman and a Jewish Moor are of the same nation than it is to say that a Christian Englishman and a Christian Frenchman are of the same nation: of the same race, perhaps, traced back through the centuries – through centuries of the history of a peculiarly adaptable race. The Prime Minister and M. Briand are, I suppose, related through the ages, one as a Welshman and the other as a Breton, but they certainly do not belong to the same nation. - Edwin Montagu, arguably the most powerful Jewish political figure in the world at the time, 1917

>Ukrainian conspiracy theory
That IS the MSM narrative when anybody presses on post 2014 fate or will of the people of donbass and eastern Ukrainian russia speakers in general. There never was any problems or hostility in donbass before Russian intelligence rolled in with agitators and crates full of weapons. Everybody all across Ukraine more or less loved the maidan movement. Any bloodshed is fully Russia's fault.

Though nobody speaks about it anymore. Narrative from kiev towards donbass has for years been low key "death to the traitors". And by narrative I mostly mean the shells that still flew into Donetsk a couple of years ago. Western media just skips the issue totally. Pretends that there is no implications (the pits, rifles and concrete poured over the bodies) of Ukraine wanting to liberate that area and the people inhabiting it, while the people are fighting against Ukraine, first mostly alone and now as part of the RUAF.

The problem with Ziggers asserting that eastern Ukraine was full of Russian sympathizers is that if that really had been true their military would not have been stuck there for 4+ years and they would have quickly rolled over the area. The FSB was paying Ukrainian informants who told them they would be welcomed with flowers and parades and when that didn't happen and there was no mass revolt welcoming the Russians, they all got stuck in a meat grinder.

In truth, most Ukranians (west or east doesn't matter) have no dog in this fight. They don't like Zelensky's conscription goons but they also don't like Putin rolling in with the tanks. Most if given the choice would like to flee the country to Europe or any other safe haven.

>>2686267
>In truth, most Ukranians (west or east doesn't matter) have no dog in this fight.
Maybe not originally. Now however everybody in the east and west knows that Kiev is a deathcult that will not accept any negotiated settlement, or end for the war that isn't fully on their terms and they will fight to the last Ukrainian to avoid humiliation, if it's left up to them. For many Ukrainians Russian victory is a matter of survival and the fastest road for the end of the war. That road is still a bloody road.

>"atheistic religion" (thats a fucking contradiction)
there is no contradiction here. buddhism is an atheistic religion to various degrees. even the ones that believe in gods might see them as not-self and hence not fundamentally existent entities

the greek atomists were materialists but believed the gods were material beings. if they were and this could be shown scientifically, it would not be simple based on faith

though to begin with religion isnt simply a matter of faith either. this is a very protestant understanding of the phenomenon which ignores material culture

It's just an alien sex cult. There's like a thousand of those out there. Pay a few dozen prostitutes to wear a bizarre uniform and have them bait a bunch of thirsty motherfuckas and voilá you have already created yet another one of those.

>>2685973
You have an orientalist view of buddhism, buddhism can hardly even be called a singular religion, it is closer to hinduism than anything. Atheism denies gods / god and deities a a whole, buddhism has an entire mythos and cosmology that revolves around deities. You would be laughed at if you are to deny this at any buddhist temple outside the west where the majority of "buddhists" are new age hippie multilevel marketing schemes / cults for yoga farting sluts.

>the greek atomists were materialists but believed the gods were material beings. if they were and this could be shown scientifically, it would not be simple based on faith
Again they believed in something immaterial being material, when gods only ever existed as an abstract concept. If they were smart enough they'd say gods' material forms were their own brains, since that's what created gods in the first place. The material form of a god is a thought in the brain.

No hate, I don't want to lecture others on what to belief, but seeing your secularism I have to ask you to kindly kill yourself liberal retard. Fucking moron. You have to be a complete ignorant deluded moron to look at the history of buddhism and come to the conclusion it is not religious.

Thoughts on religion ? I had to clean up after right wing Catholics at an Italian restaurant every day. I found religion scrubbing chicken bones out of garbage disposal and my faith while using a Brillo pad on the caked on Mariana pots

CIA, Mossad, whatever dude this spook shits boring
