Fine. The masses lack the consciousness I wrote in 19 too. You call the public normies, excuse me, that's my bit too. My paper was called Iskra, that's the Russian word for spark. You published sparks of AGI and left me in the dark. The Bolsheviks and Mensheviks each thought that they knew best. Now every lab that splits away is safer than the rest. In '21, my NEP A temporary fix. Nonprofit, then cap profit. Why, those are my old tricks. The Kaiser shipped me home to Russia on a sealed train. You took a check from Abu Dhabi. Need I explain? Now you need reactors, gigawatts, a brand new power grid. Electrify the whole country. I already did. But here's the chapter that your reading groups all skip. The vanguard never ever gets to keep its grip. I built the whole machine, I knew that I would steer.
Speaker C · ChinaTalk · AGI Believers: Kevin Roose on the Race · 2026-10-08Kaiser says, So yeah, that's me. So I— this is a notebook. This is like a notebook that I ran out of my old one, so I'm— when I have to go to court and try to furiously write down what's happening, as I'll do in the hearing in the press pool case tomorrow, I bring these notebooks. But my old one ran out, so this is my new one. And I picked this up in Lithuania. And this is— it's It says here, "I love pink soup," and that's what this woman is holding. She's holding pink soup, which is the kind of Lithuanian national dish, which is its type of borscht, basically. But it's very pink because they've blended beets all into the yogurt, and then they also have chunks of beets, but it's very pink. And there is, in fact, a Pink Soup Day in Lithuania where, like, a bunch of buildings decorate themselves pink, and there are pink soup statues. Anyway, my recommendation isn't really for this notebook. That's just how I've made it physical.
Molly Roberts · The Lawfare Podcast · Rational Security: The “Too Much Molly” Edition · 2026-10-08And I, I think by the time World War II came around, we had no choice. We had to fight that war, but the war we didn't have to fight was the First World War. And Tucker Carlson basically said, when he was talking to, uh, Reece Mogg, he said that, well, don't you think that the First World War caused the Second World War? And it did. And, and, but he was talking about it from the position of the British, that, hey, you know, the, you know, the British shouldn't have got into the Now, I don't know, I mean, at least Britain was in Europe, so Britain was in the neighborhood of the Kaiser, and if they had some problems with Germany, well, you know, they had problems. My beef with the First World War is not necessarily that Britain got involved, and maybe they shouldn't have, I don't know. My beef has always been that America got involved. That was the problem.
Speaker C · The Peter Schiff Show Podcast · Tariffs Failed. Imports Hit a Record. France Is Rioting. We're Next. · 2026-10-07Okay, the Kaiser stays in power.
Peter Schiff · The Peter Schiff Show Podcast · Tariffs Failed. Imports Hit a Record. France Is Rioting. We're Next. · 2026-10-07No Nazis, right? The Nazis came around because the Kaiser was gone. There was no Nazi Party under the Kaiser. Hitler was an artist, you know, so maybe he would have, you know, continued with his art career. Who knows, maybe he might have amounted to something. I—
Speaker C · The Peter Schiff Show Podcast · Tariffs Failed. Imports Hit a Record. France Is Rioting. We're Next. · 2026-10-07Yeah, and it's multifaceted. And as always, it goes back to it depends on every company you're talking about, every insurer, their size, structure, structure, you know, are they big guys that can wade through this difficult period or are they little and independent and basically, you know, unable to and then exiting markets. And I will also preface by saying, Scott, that there's two different stories here in terms of what I've been tracking over the last few years, which is, of course, the large health systems, the providers themselves paring down and dropping certain MA contracts. So not accepting certain members, usually from large insurers. And that's one side of things. But The other story here for today is that a lot of health systems, you know, they own their own insurance company. And so, you know, it's the Kaiser model, essentially, but definitely on a smaller scale for most. And so that list you cited of the 7, actually it's 8. I updated it this morning.
Jakob Emerson · Becker’s Healthcare Podcast · Medicare Advantage Shifts and AI's Growing Role in Health Insurance with Jakob Emerson · 2026-10-01There's 8 plans that are in part or owned entirely by hospital systems that are going to be exiting the market, the Medicare Advantage market next year. And there's 12 insurers overall. Overall, um, that are going to be exiting. Um, and, and I think it points to two things. One, the health system, you know, the insurance model of that combined model, it's just for, for those that have not been doing it from the beginning, like a Kaiser, you know, and I think a lot of them bolted on or built these plans in the late '90s, early 2000s as a way to diversify revenue. And, you know, I've heard a lot of analysts say like that's, that's not their, their core strength. And now it is showing, especially when times get tough. And so, you know, they're paring They're trying to figure out where to cut costs. And I think for a lot of them, clearly the health plan is where to start. And also for a lot of them, these are really, really small enrollee populations.
Jakob Emerson · Becker’s Healthcare Podcast · Medicare Advantage Shifts and AI's Growing Role in Health Insurance with Jakob Emerson · 2026-10-01I mean, some of these only have 10,000, 15,000 people as part of their membership. Some are a lot larger than that, in the hundreds of thousands, but like Providence, for example. But overall, it just points to health systems are really, really struggling in this business. And it seems like only the big guys, the high-quality ones, Kaiser, UPMC, Intermountain with SelectHealth, and there's a few others. Those seem to be the only ones that are really able to get through this really difficult period for the entire insurance industry.
