As health insurance companies report record profits, Biden aims to rummage in sick people's pockets in order to further bloat corporate profits.

Meanwhile, the U.S. brands Cuba terrorist as the U.S. terrorizes Cuba. The Biden administration shows a more-of-the-same policy upholding violent imperialism.
