🚨 Sheridan Gorman's angel mom just dropped this raw truth nuke straight to Democrat members of Congress
"I don't understand why it's only the REPUBLICAN side that cares about our American children!"
"Basically what you just did, what you said was, 'I'm so sorry for your loss. I have a daughter too. I have a son. I feel your pain...'"
"You DON'T feel my pain. Because the next words out of your mouth were, 'BUT.'"
"There's no 'BUT' when your child is in a coffin!"
"And I need you to understand that. And if you ever want to talk about it, I'm here, I'm going to buy you a bench. I'm going to buy. You can put that on the record. I'm going to buy Congress the bench. And they can come and sit and hold my hand and look me in the eye and explain to me why illegal immigrants are more important than my daughter. I really want to know what because I don't understand!"

Dr. Oz says UnitedHealthcare patients in New York City can be charged anywhere from $350 to $3,000 for the same MRI.
And he says this is not unique to one insurer, but part of a broader pricing problem seen across the healthcare system.
Now, he and RFK Jr. are taking action to make those prices far easier for patients to see and compare.
“And if you actually look at the numbers, it’s stunning.”
“In the city that I practiced medicine in for much of my life, New York City, the difference between an MRI scan across UnitedHealthcare insured policies, so just one insurance company, one procedure, $350 to $3,000.”
“On the same island if you’re insured by the same company.”
“The bottom line is our rule is going to empower all these transparency sites in the room today to sync up and deliver a one stop shop for cost comparison using the data that is out there, has always been out there, but has purposely been obfuscated.”

🚨 BREAKING: In a massive win, HHS Sec. Bobby Kennedy is moving to FORCE Big Healthcare to disclose all pricing to Americans UP FRONT rather than dump JUNK DATA as a loophole, which was totally unusable
Pricing files will be slashed by -70% and Americans will actually be able to SHOP AROUND with all necessary information before they receive care
THIS IS COMMON SENSE
The new rule:
- Cuts pricing-file size by about 70% and kills the duplicate noise
- Forces plans and insurers to ATTEST the data is true, accurate, and complete
- Puts a SENIOR OFFICIAL’s name on that attestation
- Makes the files easier to find and compare
- Expands useful out-of-network pricing info
- Lets patients get personalized cost-sharing quotes by PHONE, not just online
"Patients will be better able to compare what care costs before they receive it."
"We are also requiring health plans and insurers to attest that pricing data they publish is true, accurate, and complete, and to identify the senior official at that company who is responsible."
Thank you, @SecKennedy! I VOTED FOR THIS.
For years, big healthcare has been allowed to take advantage of millions of Americans and over-charged them
Trump and Bobby are getting it fixed!

A dentist walked into a cockpit soaked in blood, with seconds to decide what to do next. He chose to save a dying pilot's life.
His name is Dr. Shota Musaev.
On September 30, 2026, Musaev was a passenger aboard flydubai Flight 1073, flying from Dubai to Tel Aviv with his wife, Sigalit.
Somewhere over the desert, the co-pilot turned v!olent, att@cking the flight crew and stabbing Captain Smit Machchhar.
Musaev entered the cockpit in the middle of it.
He helped restrain the att@cker alongside several other passengers.
Then his actual training took over.
He turned to the wounded captain, who'd lost a significant amount of blood, and began treating him on the spot, using whatever he had on hand to keep him stable until the plane could land.
"We knew we had just seconds to act," Musaev said, "before a critical event."
A dentist, trained for exam rooms and filling cavities, suddenly responsible for keeping a bleeding man alive at altitude.
The aircraft made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia. All 182 people aboard survived.
Captain Machchhar was later confirmed to be in good health and recovering well, care that began the moment Musaev stepped in.
India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi personally praised Machchhar's own composure during the attack, and the broader rescue effort that kept him alive drew international attention within hours.
Passenger Or Pradilov was also among those treated for injuries sustained during the struggle.
A man whose daily work involves routine checkups suddenly found himself holding a stranger's life together mid-flight, with nothing but instinct and a few seconds to work with.

“Hip replacement in Boston costs $17,900 at one hospital, and at a nearby hospital, it costs $74,000 for the exact same surgery.”
“Researchers have found MRI prices varying as much as ninefold within a single city.”
RFK Jr. says Big Insurance has created a system where Americans can pay wildly different prices for the exact same care while the real cost stays hidden.
“And one analysis found that 60% of insurer negotiated hospital rates were higher than the hospital’s own cash price.”
“The insurance company, who is supposed to be negotiating for all of its members and beating down the price, has actually negotiated a price that is higher than if you just walked into that hospital off the street and asked for that procedure.”
“So the whole system was corrupt.”
“It was crooked.”
“Markets cannot discipline prices that they cannot see.”

You would never go shopping for a plane ticket, car, or groceries without having some idea of the prices you're going to pay.
Why should HEALTHCARE be any different?
Today’s new CMS rule gives Americans clearer information to compare healthcare costs and understand what their insurance will cover — before the bill arrives.

I still remember exactly where I was.
16 years old. Sitting in art class.
September 11, 2001.
I remember the confusion. The silence. Watching something unfold that none of us could fully understand at the time.
25 years later, I still remember that day.
Thinking today about the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the first responders who ran toward danger when everyone else was trying to escape it.
Some days you never forget.
September 11 is one of them. 🇺🇸

Those of us who remember 9/11 were craving not just unity, but leadership and purpose. I’m not exaggerating when I say our entire world had been turned upside down.
This moment was perfect. It was presidential.
🇺🇸 September 14, 2001. Ground Zero.
President Bush climbed onto a wrecked fire truck with a retired FDNY man named Bob Beckwith and a bullhorn.
A worker in the pile yelled that he could not hear him.
Bush: “I can hear you! I can hear you! The rest of the world hears you! And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!”

Christy Addamo was 28.
On the morning of September 11, 2001 she went to work and never came home.
98th floor of Tower One. Young accountant at Marsh & McLennan. Still living with her parents in New Hyde Park because she said she already loved the life she had and didn’t need to pay rent. She had just started falling in love. She and her father Greg used to watch baseball together at night. To her mother Rita she was the whole world. Her sister Dawn still remembers the sound of her laugh.
After that day the house filled with flowers from strangers who had only heard her name.
A life that was just beginning, ended.
Say her name out loud today.
Christy Addamo.
We have not forgotten.

Never Forget. If you weren’t alive or are too young to remember the tragedy of 25 years ago, please take the time to learn from those who experienced one of the worst days in American history. #NeverForget
Twenty-five years ago, we suffered unimaginable losses as a nation, a City, and a Department. The world changed.
The FDNY lost 343 of our own that day, and in the decades since, we have continued to lose even more to World Trade Center-related illnesses. Their names, their stories, and their courage are woven into the fabric of the Department and serve as the foundation of the modern FDNY.
We renew the promise we made a quarter of a century ago—one we will keep for generations to come: We will Never Forget.

#WeRemember the 343 firefighters who lost their lives in the 9/11 terror attacks, 25 years ago today.
Many more firefighters have since suffered from diseases likely linked to toxic substances present at ground zero.
Today, Firefighters will observe a minute's silence at 13.46 – the time in the UK when the first plane impacted the North Tower of the World Trade Center.

Twenty-five years ago today, I woke up in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. I came downstairs to hear the TV news talking about the World Trade Center while showing the Pentagon. Before I could figure out what was happening, the whole house shook. It was the impact of Flight 93. 1/3

I was honored to join President Bush at @TheBushCenter to reflect on the 25th anniversary of September 11th. We discussed the legacy and meaning of 9/11, honoring the memories of those lost and the heroes who stood tall, the values that unite us as Americans, and the enduring importance of public service. youtube.com/live/HkiHo9IjuKM…

In memory of Todd Morgan Beamer
November 24, 1968 – September 11, 2001
Age 32 Cranbury, New Jersey
Account manager, Oracle Corporation
United Airlines Flight 93Todd Beamer left home that Tuesday for a one-day business trip to San Francisco. He was due back the same night. His wife, Lisa, was five months pregnant. Their sons, David and Drew, were three and one. The family had just returned from a company trip to Italy. He chose to come home first so he could see the boys.
He grew up in the Chicago suburbs, the middle child of David and Peggy Beamer. He played baseball, attended Wheaton Christian schools, graduated from Wheaton College in 1991, and earned an MBA from DePaul. At Wheaton he met Lisa. They married in 1994, taught Sunday school for years, and built an ordinary life of work, church, and small children. “Let’s roll” was already a family phrase, what he said when it was time to get in the car.
Flight 93 left Newark late. After takeoff, hijackers seized the cockpit. Passengers learned from phone calls that other planes had already been flown into buildings. Todd tried to reach Lisa. When the call failed, he reached GTE Airfone supervisor Lisa Jefferson. He stayed calm. He described what was happening. He asked her to pray the Lord’s Prayer with him. Others on the plane joined. He recited the 23rd Psalm. He asked her, if he did not make it, to tell his family how much he loved them.Then Jefferson heard him say to the people around him: “Are you guys ready? Okay. Let’s roll.”Todd Beamer and other passengers and crew moved toward the cockpit. The plane crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, at 10:03 a.m. Everyone aboard was killed. The intended target—almost certainly the Capitol or the White House was not reached.
His daughter, Morgan Kay, was born on January 9, 2002. Todd Beamer was not a soldier. He was a salesman, a Sunday school teacher, a husband, and a father who decided, in the last minutes of his life, that the plane would not be used as a weapon. His words became a national rallying cry because they were so ordinary and so complete: get ready, then go.
He is remembered at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania and on Panel S-68 of the National September 11 Memorial. His damaged watch and an Oracle business card recovered from the site are among the artifacts that remain.
Never forget.
Let’s roll!❤️🙏
