Health News that Trump Doesn't Want You To Know

A huge swath of Conservative Republicans and Libertarians don't believe that federal government has any role in safety, health, education or social services.

^This.

Combine this with a group of evangelical Christians who have completely forsaken the New Testament and you have this weird new Republican Party.

60 years ago, there were New Deal Liberals and Social Justice Christians that wanted those governmental programs that addressed poverty, hunger and social stability. This same generation of people wanted everyone to get vaccinated, they wanted no children to die from preventable diseases and they were willing to pay the taxes necessary to make sure that everyone, regardless of race, creed or color had the same opportunities, including health care.

What we're seeing now is the generation that came of age in the Reagan years and they're more Nationalistic, more numb to corruption and they consider the New Deal to be the "Nanny State". And the Christians who came out of this era don't see any conflict between material wealth and Christianity; they are the "Prosperity Gospel" generation that doesn't feel any obligations to the poor or any of the other groups mentioned in the Beatitudes.

If you ask them what their goal is, they really believe that they are freeing everyone from governmental control. For the libertarians, that's less governmental regulation. For the conservatives, that's less Federal involvement in things like equal rights, voting rights and "diversity, equity and inclusion". For the Christians, it's less government enforcement of separation of Church and State, which opens up the possibility of infusing Christianity into every day life (a la theocracy). This coalition of different beliefs is how you end up with a government that doesn't study disease, doesn't prevent disease and doesn't invest in public health.

I'm starting to wonder if there's something in some portion of all human brains that makes them prone to non-critical thinking. I talk with some MAGAts weekly, and the facts about what Trump is doing -- decreasing jobs, causing companies to go bankrupt, whatever -- just slide right off, and there's always an excuse, often involving blaming other people than Trump.

Kind of like when something good happens, it's because of God/Jesus; when some bad happens, it's Satan?

They're primed for that kind of thinking from a very early age.

An ah-ha moment.

You know there is something wrong. And it is possibly part nature, but largely nurture.

When Trump declared his love for the poorly educated, it was because one of his flacks had explained to him how his entire schemata worked...that he appealed to people with no critical thinking skills. Mark Burnett knew this and then so did the bankrollers of the GQP.

IT is what cult leaders prey on. We see it running rampant in the US with evangelical churches, with sociopathic politicians and business leaders.

People who barely coasted out of secondary school who never looked up a fact in their life don't want that fancy 'larnin'. They want to live by their gut. And the Us is full of millions of people who descended from millions of people who fled to 'Murica' because they were 'rebels' who wanted to be free to live this way.

So like any cult members whose ENTIRE identity is defined by their leader and their movement, they will defend anything that der Fuhrer does or says.

Look at one of my recent posts in the 'Deplorables'.

As soon as people started to point out that it was TrumpCo. who likely contributed to the flooding disaster in Texas...it all immediately starts getting reported as 'Fake News'.

The US is a very sick country now.

It predates Trump, though.

Back in the 90s, I was on a flight and I sat next to a lobbyist for a very wealthy Republican businessman. He was on his way to meet with member of a State legislature to talk to them about improving education in the State. From their viewpoint, in order to continue growing their business, they needed a pipeline of well-educated employees.

It was somewhere after 2000, that the business lobby in the Republican Party began to lose power to factions in the Party that believe that higher education produces liberals who vote Democratic. There was also a faction opposed to free public schools (which unionized teachers) who wanted to institute vouchers for private (read: religious) schools.

But there's also something else going on. It's almost as if we're in the midst of a mass insanity. Something happened to people during the pandemic and I don't think we've really figured out what it was. There's hints that social media and streaming podcasters have a role in it but it still doesn't explain why ordinary people before the pandemic have normalized some of the crazy shit we are seeing these days.

While the Trump Administration likes to blame immigrants for Medicare/Medicaid fraud, turns out the Russians have been quietly siphoning off billions in false Medicare claims.

U.S. Charges 11 in Russia-Based Scheme to Bilk Medicare of $10.6 Billion​

In what is potentially among the largest frauds in Medicare history, prosecutors say hundreds of thousands of people were billed for medical equipment they didn’t ask for.

When hundreds of thousands of people enrolled in Medicare were billed for expensive medical equipment they never asked for in 2023, it was part of a $10.6 billion fraud, among the largest such schemes in the program’s history, federal prosecutors said this week.

The scheme was carried out by 11 defendants, including citizens of the United States, Estonia and the Czech Republic, who worked for a criminal organization based in Russia, according to an indictment unsealed in the Eastern District of New York on Thursday.

Those involved in the fraud bought dozens of companies that were accredited to submit claims to Medicare and the program’s supplemental insurers, prosecutors say.

Then, using personal information stolen from more than a million Americans, the defendants filed billions of dollars in claims for equipment that had not been ordered by people enrolled in Medicare and was not delivered to them, according to the indictment.

Of the $10.6 billion that was fraudulently billed, the indictment says, the defendants collected more than $900 million, most of it coming from private “Medigap” insurers and the rest from the Medicare program itself.

During the first Trump Administration, Dr Anosh Ahmed was accused of diverting scarce COVID-19 vaccines to friends and donors of the hospital where he was CEO- Loretto Hospital in Illinois. Dr Ahmed was later indicted for billing Medicare for $900 million in COVID tests that were never provided to Loretto Hospital patients.

Hmm... Philandering evangelical MAGA Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton received $190,000 in campaign donation from a Medicare fraudster who has fled to Dubai. Paxton was a candidate for US Attorney General before Pam Bondi got the nomination. It's unclear why a doctor who was a hospital executive in Illinois would be donating hundreds of thousands of dollars to a Texas politician.

Former Loretto Hospital Exec Facing New Charges in Alleged $300M Fraud Scheme

Anosh Ahmed was among four people charged after they allegedly submitted fraudulent reimbursement claims to the federal government for COVID testing materials totaling nearly $900 million, of which approximately $293 million was paid.

Former Loretto Hospital Exec Facing New Charges in Alleged $300M Fraud Scheme
Anosh Ahmed, the former Loretto Hospital exec who reportedly fled to Dubai after he was charged last year in a $15 million embezzlement scheme, now faces additional charges after he and others allegedly stole nearly $300 million through a fraudulent COVID-19 testing scam.

Ahmed, 41, was among four people charged after they allegedly submitted fraudulent reimbursement claims to the federal government for COVID testing materials totaling nearly $900 million, of which approximately $293 million was paid.

He now faces several new charges including wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, conspiracy to pay and receive kickbacks, obtaining individually identifiable health information without authorization and for commercial advantage, and money laundering.

Former Loretto Hospital CEO Charged With Taking More Than $750K in Bribes

Another former Loretto Hospital executive has been charged in connection with an ongoing conspiracy investigation.

The West Side hospital’s ex-CEO George Miller was charged in a superseding indictment Friday after he allegedly received more than $750,000 in bribes from medical supply company owner Sameer Suhail after helping steer hospital contracts to businesses run by Suhail.

Suhail was charged earlier this year alongside a pair of former Loretto executives, COO Anosh Ahmed and chief transformation officer Heather Bergdahl.

Measles cases in the US reach 33-year high

The number of reported measles cases in the US has reached a 33-year high, with nearly 1,300 confirmed infections across the country as of Friday.

The data, released by John Hopkins University, marks a new milestone in an ongoing outbreak of the highly contagious, vaccine-preventable disease that was once thought to be eliminated in the US.

Measles cases have been reported in 38 states and the District of Columbia this year. At least three people have died from the illness, and 155 others were in hospital.

A vast majority of the measles cases - 92% - were in people who were either unvaccinated or whose vaccination status was unknown, according to the Centres for Disease Control (CDC).

He might be a lot closer in 2027. Paxton is running for John Cornyn's US Senate seat. And I read that he's leading in the primary polls in Texas, so he could very well be oozing next to Rafael in the Senate chamber. There's plenty of young nubile women staffers in the Senate, so Paxton would have lots of things to entertain him while he's accepting bribes and further damaging the reputation of the Senate.

Things like this make me think that making dueling members of Congress legal might not be a bad idea.
 
And once again...hold our beer. The Fuck Trudeau contingent in Canada...paying attention to the Kremlin influenced influencers back in tthe COVID years have made us NUMBER ONE! At least in the red neck province of Albertastan.
