I wrote about how the price of insulin has led to 4 in 5 diabetics who need it taking on credit card debt.

The people I talked to have rationed doses, sold their car, pushed back a mortgage payment and more just to pay for something they need to survive.

neverleave.substack.com/p/4-in-5-ameri… On Weds., Senators Jeanne Shaheen & Susan Collins introduced a bill to cap insulin co-pays at $35 a month.

Patient advocates @Kidfears99 & @zoehaswitt point out that it doesn't address price-gouging & leaves out diabetics who don't have health insurance.

Disturbing footage of attacks on protesters here And here

Homeowners were oversold by realtors & banks, hoodwinked into thinking they qualified for loans they weren't qualified for with rubber-stamp approval processes obfuscated by opaque "credit scores" and ultimately blamed for "living beyond their means" when CDOs & MBSes tanked. Banks got bailed out as a result. Wall Street execs got bonuses. Nobody got punished for one of the largest financial crimes perpetrated on a global scale. But workers lost pensions & retirement funds. Evictions spiked. And borrowers were blamed.

this is extremely funny & the inevitable aftermath will be the country's wealthy elite—the same people who didn't give a shit as millions of people got fucked over in 08—clamoring for more safeguards on the market to prevent this from happening again bc this time it affects them we're about to see a chorus of financiers, wall st ghouls and likely some members of congress feign outrage that our market, our sweet, precious market, was manipulated (!) by a bunch of redditors! nevermind that in 08 the people who manipulated the system got fucking BAILOUTS!

The House is having a hearing on white supremacy and the Republicans invited Candace Owens who used her time to say it isn't actually an issue, that it wouldn't even rank in her top 100 issues and that the real issue is black-on-black crime & lack of masculinity in men. Jim Jordan just came to the white supremacy hearing late and with his time gave Candace Owens the floor.

This is what she said.

Tonight, Laura Ingraham promoted an open white supremacist, Paul Nehlen, on her show.

These companies advertised:

@FractureMe
@SandalsResorts
@Bayer
@TheZebraCo
@StarKistCharlie
@bookingcom
@NetSuite
@BauschLomb Will Sommer, who covers the far right, said it's "really stunning, even for Fox" that Laura Ingraham touted a white supremacist.

These companies ran ads:

Before people start an argument over how to win back the white working class for the 7000th time, a reminder on why @MMFA and campaigners were disappointed in candidates going on Fox News for exclusive town halls... Every spring, Fox—like every major network—has an “upfront,” where they sell up to 70% of their ad space for the coming year. This is a huge, crucial business moment for them year after year.

That’s happening right now.

It's hard to tell what someone in the crowd yells at Trump, but immediately after talking about not using violence/weapons on immigrants, Trump laughs and says "only in the panhandle can you get away with that statement."

The crowd erupts. Context via @wsteaks: Someone in the crowd yelled "Shoot them!"

Yesterday, alt-right/white nationalist groups showed up to a May Day protest and attacked the protesters. Assaulting them, throwing things at them, etc.

Tucker just opened his show framing it as "Antifa" ZERO mention of the alt-right/white nationalist groups that showed up to a bar and attacked people, where Tucker's guest was pepper sprayed.

Completely ignored the white nationalists.

When Tucker Carlson was losing advertisers & Jeanine Pirro was suspended for her anti-Muslim comments, Trump personally called Rupert Murdoch to pressure him to stand with the incendiary hosts.

Murdoch then pressured executives to the President's liking.

vanityfair.com/news/2019/04/f… "While Fox's primetime shows generate the lion's share of the network's ratings & ad revenues, there have been increasing issues w/ lost advertising. Many blue-chip companies don't want to buy time on those shows because of the divisive pro-Trump content"

HOLY SHIT

Tucker Carlson’s first commercia break was almost ALL PSAs, which don’t get to pick their placement, and Fox News house ads for other shows/their streaming service.

The only apparent paid national advertiser was @Thryv.

YOUR PRESSURE IS WORKING!! Tucker Carlson second break:

-Alka Seltzer (@abbvie)

-@SoClean

-A two minute @MyPillowUSA ad

-*Three* Fox house promos

Today’s events require us to acknowledge the societal damage done by political and media illiteracy as well as prolonged and coordinated misinformation campaigns by mainstream and/or digital media entities to further a partisan agenda.

We can’t overstate its toxicity. Here we have a guy who has documented himself at Trump rallies for YEARS and drives a van covered in right-wing propaganda and right wingers are still refusing to accept it.

They are staring at a clear blue sky and insisting it’s orange.
