Congress has let drug companies rip off Americans for decades.
Lobbyists, campaign cash, and a system that protects industry profits.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In context: @cspan charges $.07 per subscriber and in exchange gives viewers THREE CHANNELS of unfiltered access to congress and the presidency. And UNHINGED callers. It's an American treasure and should be available on the platforms that will dominate the next decade.

Several cars just went over the bridge into the water in Washington DC
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Officials have confirmed that a single vehicle went off the bridge and into the Potomac River. One person has been rescued from the vehicle and was sent to the hospital in critical condition.

Antivirus giant Norton 360 has installed a cryptocurrency mining program on users PCs, but says the service that enables the miner is opt-in. Users report miner is hard to remove. Customer reactions range from unease/disbelief to "dude, where's my crypto?" krebsonsecurity.com/2022/01/…
