I really wish that M4A in its single-payer form had not been made synonymous w/ "universal healthcare." It makes it exceedingly difficult to discuss the merits of different plans when people assume you take issue w/ UHC itself, rather than specific pathways to achieving UHC.
Tell it! Universal healthcare doesn’t have to equal 100% of the population all with a single payer source, we can get there with a mix of private and public coverage and realistically that’s what most industrialized nations with successful systems have done.
Only Democrats have to explain in detail how to pay for their policies, just like only Democrats resign immediately after any perceived sexual misconduct. At some point we have to address the fact that the two parties play by different sets of rules
Yeah,what everyone would do if the call was totally beautiful and legit.
NEW: Days after White House lawyer John Eisenberg moved record of Trump call w/Zelensky into top secret system, he instructed Lt. Col. Vindman—who listened to the call & raised alarms—not to tell anyone what had happened on the call, Vindman testified. https://t.co/0CDgno3nNc
IMO… it’s not his time yet. He needs a little more time and he will come back in a few years and do good things. He is a good man with good to do in the world
Maybe the reason Republicans in Congress aren’t objecting to Trump trying to rig the 2020 elections is because they want him to rig the 2020 elections.
Whatever the future holds for Beto, I thank him profusely for shining a light on the extraordinary people of El Paso, who suffered great pain and loss due to the violent rantings of the despicable racist in the WH. Hold them in your heart as we work toward a more just society.
News of Eisenberg's decision to tell the guy whose twin is the NSC ETHICS lawyer "not to talk about" Trump's corrupt call w/Zelensky makes it even more important for Dems to begin the Trump WH Corruption story w/Flynn/Kislyak calls & cover-up, in which Eisenberg was a key player. https://t.co/8ysDsCYwxi
When Benjamin Franklin came out of Independence Hall on September 17, 1787 after our Constitution was adopted, people asked him: What do we have—a monarchy or a republic?
“Trump And Barr Ask UK Officials To Attack The US Intelligence Community.”
Independent: “Trump and Barr have also been asking other foreign governments for help in investigating the FBI, CIA and Mueller investigators. The US president has called on the Australian prime minister Scott Morrison for assistance, while the attorney general has been on similar missions to the UK and Italy.
And the information being requested has left allies astonished.
One British official with knowledge of Barr’s wish list presented to London commented that “it is like nothing we have come across before, they are basically asking, in quite robust terms, for help in doing a hatchet job on
their own intelligence services”.
–You knew it.
The Constitution is not a Take Out Menu. You can’t pick some from Column A and Some from Column B. It is the law of the land. Either obey our laws in their entirety as is your sworn oath or suffer the wrath of a country that is done with your betrayal.
“Trump Wants To Read Ukraine Call Summary Rachel Maddow Style On National TV.”
Trump’s people edited it. We know Trump has permitted only edited notes of the Ukraine phone call to be released. We know there is time missing, pieces and ellipses, as well as him talking about Biden and Burisma.
Who knows what all is missing in this coverup transcript? Can we get out ahead of the faux ‘fireside chat’?
Wow. UK officials say the Trump admin’s requests for info to discredit the Mueller probe are “like nothing we have come across before, they are basically asking, in quite robust terms, for help in doing a hatchet job on their own intelligence services”.https://t.co/r83NvSuSey

Beto made a significant contribution to the party and the country through his candidacy for the presidency and will surely make more contributions in the years ahead.
Maybe it’s me, but I sorta kinda worry about his emotional well-being now … he put so much into both of his major recent campaigns and it didn’t “work” to get him elected, and I don’t think you can prepare yourself for that, in all cases. Hope he goes home to his family, takes a big rest, and then “gets back on the horse” soon. With his name recognition, he could do wonders in his next endeavor.
Should be criminal to let lies travel around the world and cash in on them…. which is what FB does

hi Dudette, yes it is bad stuff at any age. My son as a teen, not that long ago, got onto that Monster drink and had a ton of fillings because of it. The dentist told him NO and he stopped. Honestly dentists make a fortune off of sugar drinks.
Anyway then MDs and researchers spelled it out and Monster got knocked on the head. https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/news/20120503/are-energy-drinks-bad-for-teeth
Dudette don’t know if you’ll get this. But have a friend whose life is at great risk from his addiction…cannot stop, and is profoundly overweight. His big brother died of heart attack of same. The whole family is adorable so this topic very close to my heart. I feel for everyone in the country who is caught by it.
…thanks so much for all you do.
WTF. Since I’m going to sleep soon, I don’t want to read this tonight … but the headlines alone could give us all more nightmares.

That’s not all – the new rule would eliminate the requirement that federally-funded organizations treat same-sex marriages as valid. They’ve also said they’ll put these changes into effect TODAY, without allowing us time to formally oppose the new rule.

If it isn’t google trying to know what’s going with citizens it’s some other corporation. We have one of those doorbell ring cameras, I can sit in the parking lot at work and watch my neighbors walk by my home. My wife whispers when we have conversations in the living room because she’s worried that the nest cameras installed in the house is recording our every conversation and is saving it in some big server somewhere.
Oh don’t get me wrong, I love the doorbell camera. But my wife insisted on the nest cameras in the house, and when I installed them I told her they will pick up everything. It doesn’t bother me but she doesn’t even walk to talk above a whisper in her own home. I think it’s kinda funny!
We have a doorbell one at our office – not Nest though. It comes in handy a lot, especially if we can’t get to the door right away.
I understand your wife completely though. It’s like Big Brother is watching and listening. This why I will not have a Google Home or Alexa device in my home. Nope, not gonna do it.

Thank You Nerdy…
We know this to be true
Yeah,what everyone would do if the call was totally beautiful and legit.
IMO… it’s not his time yet. He needs a little more time and he will come back in a few years and do good things. He is a good man with good to do in the world
Beta, should have never been in the race.
Now, he should throw his support behind Joe
ggail44 I agree.
Texas needs him in the Senate!
Strike that. The country needs him in the Senate … or the Cabinet.
Sweet! LOL!!!!!
Exactly
Obviously.
Absolutely!!! Could not agree more:) We need more people just like him
Look on his Twitter feed for more ACA info
What love about Kamala is that she brings a certain spirit to this race and it almost always involves young people.

As soon as he finish reading the Call Summary, a Democrat should be waiting for a rebuttal.
He needs to read the actual transcript to the American people. We already know what the summary says and it’s damning.

I’d love to see that flight attendant’s face when he finally learns who he was talking to.
Just as our First Nations feared. End this.
Arghhhhh. This is so infuriating.

Now Mittens has a chance to show what kind of spine he has. It shouldn’t be that difficult seeing as Trump repeatedly tried to humiliate him.

Graham is lying. There’s nothing Trump could do which would make Graham stop supporting Trump.
