#47 Clown actually says, "It makes us stronger and weaker."

Must be the LA California water speaking.

'Cause it sure doesn't make any sense anywhere else.

"Sure, me and millions of other Americans are done with corporate democratic candidates chosen for us by the DNC."

100% oops:

-> Georgia voters ousted two Republican members of the state's Public Service Commission in favor of two Democrats - the first Democrats to win statewide nonfederal offices in decades.

-> Democrats in Mississippi Break the G.O.P.'s State House Supermajority

-> Every single county in Virginia - even deeply red counties - saw shifts TOWARDS the Democrats, as opposed to how they voted 1 year ago.

-> Dems flip Wichita School Board from a 4-3 GOP majority to a 5-2 Democratic majority. Democratic candidates Amy Warren and Amy Jensen defeated Republican incumbents Hazel Stabler and Kathy Bond.

-> Two of Tuesday's school board elections were in Bucks County, Pa., which was considered "ground zero" for right-wing groups' takeover of school boards in 2021. A few years ago, conservatives on these boards in Pennbridge and Central Bucks districts were using their roles to pass policies targeting LGBTQ+ students and banning books.

---> Democrats flipped control of both boards in 2023, and on Tuesday, they ousted every Republican from both of these boards, except for one. The Pennbridge school board is now 8-1, with Democratic members in control. The Central Bucks school board is 9-0.

-> In Texas, we even won in Lockhart, which sits in a district so red that Democrats normally don't even run. We had a clean sweep in Cy-Fair ISD, another deeply red area that not even Greg Abbott could save your party.

-> In SD-9, another red district, we saw an 8 point shift for the Democrat

-> Eileen Higgins elected as first Democratic mayor of Miami in three decades

For most Americans, it is a Democrat versus a Republican.

'Tis clear you prefer the Republican ... more self-righteous for your comfort, nes pas?

#45 You seem to have sidestepped this question, Clown:

Come November, if it is Steyer versus Hilton, who are you going to vote for?

Once again, Clown, come November, if it is Steyer versus Hilton, who are you going to vote for?

#43 Neither.

You just can't take "yes" for an answer, can you?

#33 Clown asks (regarding the similarities in my #27).

Okay, sure.

These people are practically giddy about discussing the weaknesses and failures of the Democratic Party:

Questions?

#38 Nope, Corky.

Michael Phillips, a 38-year-old from North Carolina.

If you Google that specific phrase you know exactly what ails Left Hind Turds.

And it has nothing to do with Michelle Phillips :-)

#33 Clown pulls something from out of his ass, "Democrats ran Andrew Cuomo against Mamdani"

How can that be when the Democratic Party nominee for the office of mayor of NYC was Zohran Mamdani?

Care to explain yourself, Clown?

#33 The Democratic Party nominee for the office of mayor of NYC was Zohran Mamdani.

It wasn't Andrew Cuomo.

Why are you trying so hard to condemn the only alternative to the Republican Party: The Democratic Party?

Why is that, Clown?

Important revelation!

Left Hind Turds has been identified as Michael Phillips, a 38-year-old from North Carolina.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled program, already in progress.

#20 Nixon says, "You can't fix stupid with duct tape."

'Tis true.

But you can contribute to the betterment of the human condition by liberal use of said product.

#28 All of a sudden, it becomes crystal clear ...

#20 Because she laughed at your shriveled "manhood," Left Hind Turds?

#65 Should have kept your ignorant mouth shut, bj boi ...

1. HIPAA Privacy Rule exceptions (specifically related to permitted uses and disclosures of PHI)

The HIPAA Privacy Rule permits covered entities to use and/or disclose personal health information (PHI) without patient authorization for treatment, payment, and healthcare operations (TPO). Aside from TPO, the rule only permits uses and disclosures under very specific circumstances.

Below is a quick rundown of these exceptions, which are described in more detail in 45 CFR 164.512.

Required by law
Public health activities (such as reporting to a state health department or the CDC)
Victims of abuse, neglect, or domestic violence
Health oversight activities, such as audits
Legal proceedings
Law enforcement purposes
Medical research
Workers compensation
Essential government functions (such as protecting the health and safety of inmates or employees in a correctional institution)
Psychotherapy notes in limited circumstances (such as its own training or to defend itself in legal proceedings brought by the individual)
Marketing in limited circumstances (such as communications for care coordination for the individual or to recommend alternative treatments)
To inform next of kin, identify a body, determine cause of death, or for a medical examiner/coroner
To facilitate organ donation or transplants
To prevent serious threat to a person or the public's health or safety

Should have just kept your ignorant mouth shut (or used for more productive purposes).

100% oops:

AI Overview
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) protects individually identifiable health information"known as Protected Health Information (PHI)"held by "covered entities" (healthcare providers, plans, and clearinghouses) and their business associates. It ensures privacy and security for medical records and billing, but does not cover non-health companies, employment records, or consumer-tracked data.

You're welcome.

#62 bj boi actually says, "Practically everything with patients is confidential."

Oh, everything with patients isn't confidential ? ? ?

Say it ain't so, bj boi?

#62 Practice, not law.

#60 Yep.

I'm sure.

It pertains when there's billing.

Otherwise? No expectation for privacy.

#57 doveryay, no proveryay

#54 HIPAA only pertains to billing information, not medical records.

That's not optional.

Clearly, dipsomaniac Pete Hegseth is channeling his inner Major DEI Boaz.

Good call, C0RI0LANUS...

... and thank you.

#6 Until the Trump develops a sense of shame, your impotent response is just that: impotent.

Clown says, "What I see from you now though is objection to discussing the weaknesses and failures of the Democratic Party."

And just how many of these posters have openly, here, discussed the weaknesses and failures of the Republican Party:

Clown says, "What I see from you now though is objection to discussing the weaknesses and failures of the Democratic Party."

Ya think, Clown?

Yeah. Funny thing about the political status of the USA in late April, 2026:

The only reason to "discuss" the weaknesses and failures of the Democratic Party, at this time, is to weaken the Democratic Party.

And who benefits from a weakened Democratic Party?

The Republicans (see: zero-sum game).

And who loses from a weakened Democratic Party?

I'd argue, it is the American people who lose from a weakened Democratic Party.

But, apparently, to you (and others here), tearing down the Democratic Party is a fun game. You seem to salivate over the idea of damaging the only counter to the Republican Party.

Meanwhile, those on the right side of the aisle cheer you (and the others here) on, beside themselves over the stroke of good luck you're giving them by doing some of the heavy lifting (damning the Democratic Party) while they expend zero energy doing so.

And, as an added bonus, your posts become self-fulfilling prophecy for Democrats and made-for-television ads for Republicans.
