#8 Harris Campaign Recruits Foreign Volunteers, Tells Noncitizens How to Skirt Donation Rules - Reddit Lies, Mollie, Amuse, and Dr. Jake Baker on X
In the previous installments of this investigation into how the Harris-Walz presidential campaign is dishonestly manipulating online platforms, I noted the existence of a Discord server where campaign employees coordinate with a volunteer army to flood social media sites with campaign propaganda. The volunteers also vote en masse on social media to artificially boost Harris-Walz content or downvote content that is harmful to their campaign. Not only is this deceptive and misleading to voters, it’s a clear violation of these websites’ Terms of Service. In part one and part two of the investigation, I noted this strategy had been successful at manipulating both Reddit and X.

#5 Biden-Harris Medicare Cuts Are Harming Seniors With Coverage Losses, Premium Hikes: Former Congresswoman - Jamie Joseph for FOXBusiness, Yolanda Whyte MD, Mel, and Insurrection Barbie on X
Cuts to Medicare Advantage by the Biden-Harris administration could lead to fewer options and higher costs for 33 million seniors, former Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle, R-N.Y., warns. In an interview with FOX Business, the former New York congresswoman urged her fellow Republicans to formulate a "coherent health care agenda" that tackles issues like drug approval processes and billing transparency to avoid a socialized medicine model. "And one of the pieces of that is to look at what's driving up the cost of health care," Buerkle, who worked as a nurse prior to practicing law and entering politics, told FOX Business. "Certainly, drugs are modernizing and streamlining the FDA, getting more generics and bioidenticals available in the marketplace — that would help the cost of things, looking at any dishonest billing, because we've seen that so many times."#4 The Mutilation of Our Children: Are Taxpayers Footing the Bill to Fuel the Righteous Ego of Leading Trans Doctor? - Tracy Beanz and Michelle Edwards for The HighWire, UncoverDC, Meg Brock, dc and Billboard Chris on X
