Lawrence: One of the examples you've put out is in Speaker Mike Johnson's Louisiana district, a 60 year old couple earning 82,000 a year. Their health care premiums will rise by almost $20,000 by 300% because of what their congressman is doing.
Boyle: Ironically, Mike Johnson has one of the largest medicaid populations of any district nationwide. But I do want to stress that, yes, this is dramatic and will be awful if you're on medicaid, will be awful if you're on one of the Obamacare exchanges, will be awful if you're on medicare. But it's actually the health care of all of us, regardless of how you obtain it. Because even for those of us who might not be on one of those programs I just mentioned, premiums are set to rise. And by a dramatic amount, literally beginning in a matter of hours. So that is what is at stake. That is why we have a sense of urgency. That is why we can't wait three months or six months or nine months.
@Lawrence I remember John Stewart saying, "You go, then I'll go..." I think of it often, including this afternoon on 287 through New Jersey! Brilliant!!!
In April 2016, I broke the story of Trump and Putin, using Russian open sources. Afterwards, I heard vague intimations that something was awry in the FBI in New York, specifically counter-intelligence and cyber. We now have a suggestion as to why. 0/20
@HenryLouisGates@PBS@imcarolburnett@NiecyNash "Can you imagine what he had endured"-yet not a word about what those enslaved endured. I felt like Dr. Gates was waiting for it, also. It never came. It was disappointing. I love Claire-ever the intellectual.
@HenryLouisGates@PBS@imcarolburnett@NiecyNash I found Jeff Daniels tone deaf. His ancestor could only have volunteered for Union army to seek glory vs the cause? It was very uncomfortable when they were discussing Andersonville-his ancestor's imprisonment.
A former aide to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) was convicted Thursday after being found guilty of helping funnel illegal foreign campaign contributions from a Russian national into former President Trump's 2016 campaign https://t.co/h02wjkad9Z
