Hard to know whether domestic or foreign policy is in bigger need of re-direction . . .

but turning on poor people to line the pockets of corporations & investors is still on the top of my list.
There are dozens and dozens of seemingly small examples like this one— from cutting people off of food stamps & Medicaid to scaring legal immigrants not to use their benefits to not allowing newly diagnosed cancer patients from qualifying for Medicaid.
Some receipts:

This is the worst stock market week since 2008.
This is the worst stock market month since 1931.
Most Americans have lost 10% of their savings or more.

Markets hate chaos, corruption, and heading in the wrong direction. In other words, Trump.
Several have very critically & accurately pointed out that not everyone owns stock.

For those that don’t, Trump’s tax plan was even worse.

Recall Trump would tweet every time the market rose so this says something. More importantly, my boss #44 knew this wasn’t what mattered.
And anyone who wants to criticize me for coming from the private sector, you are welcome to. I was a public figure & that comes with the territory.

I left the private sector to help turnaround the ACA after it launched & then served 2 amazing years in Obama’s Administration.

There’s so much crazy news today that a major health care policy change & some results released today won’t get noticed.

Bottom line: changing how we pay for care in Medicare is reducing costs and improving quality & will happen more rapidly.

If you want a few more details...
Medicare changed how it paid care to reward quality & improve efficiency in a pilot. 44 groups of physicians & hospitals saved the government $167 million in one year. 👇Which means they saved a multiple of that.

To me what’s important... 2/

cms.gov/newsroom/press…
This shows Paul Ryan and others who aim to panic us into cutbacks of Medicare that they are wrong. We have the tools to more than sustain Medicare & make health care more affordable without draconian cuts, but smart reforms. 3/

This conditions you to attack obstacles instead of running from them.

Türkler sadece Müslüman mı? Türkleri Müslüman sananlara ve Müslümanları da Türk sananlara gelsin bu tweet zinciri… Okumanız dileği ile. #rt ve #fav yapmayı unutmayınız.
Yeryüzünde çok değişik din ve kültürlerden Türklerin yaşadığının ayırdına varırsak Noel, Paskalya, Hamursuz, Hanukah gibi bayram ve gelenekleri “bizim dinimizde yoktur” önyargısıyla yadsımaya kalkışmanın ne kadar yanlış ve boş olduğunu anlamış oluruz.
Öte yandan “bizim dinimiz” diye de Türklere özgü bir din yoktur.
Zira, tarihe baktığımızda Çuvaşlar, Yakutlar, Batı Kumanlar, Peçenekler, Karamanlılar ve Gagavuzların Hristiyanlığı yüzyıllarca önce benimseyen Türk halkları olduğunu görürüz.

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether

10 Core Values Every Man Needs To Possess To Create A Legacy Of Greatness.
 
Great men share many core values.

Focus on developing these core values and become the man every man envies and every woman wants.

Your Legacy Of Greatness awaits...

(Thread)
1. Self-Motivated

Every man needs to be a leader.

It’s important to be able to motivate yourself to take action to move forward toward your goals – whether they’re personal, family, of career.

Leaders are driven to get things done and they lead others to do the same.
2. The Ability To Delegate.

You can’t do it all yourself.

The most effective men surround themselves with skilled people, define their responsibilities, and then get out of the way.

Rid yourself of the complainers, wannabes and the hangers on. They’re holding you back.

Yesterday was Day 60 w/o #CHIP reauthorization. Today, I'll share a very personal story about my own child’s healthcare journey--a journey impossible without insurance, & one which shaped my determination that all kids receive quality healthcare. 1/12

washingtonpost.com/national/healt…
In 2002, our 6-month-old son, Zach, received a terrifying diagnosis. After a few months of unexplained wheezing and difficulty breathing, he was finally diagnosed with a rare cardiothoracic disorder that required open-heart surgery. 2/12
Looking back 15 years, I still tear up recalling the fear my husband and I felt when we learned of the magnitude of Zach’s condition, and as we faced a rough 10 days of uncertainty. 3/12
