Since we‘re talking about ACA subsidies…
My sister's doctor made a house call because she‘s dealing with a lingering ear infection. He gave her a shot and a full course of antibiotics. While there, he took a look at her husband and gave him a B12 shot.
Total cost: $141.

His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya.

I serve as an area expert for an global organization that tracks and reports on transnational organized crime. This DOJ move facilitates international criminal activity of all kinds, not just drugs. It is designed to assist the secretive finances of bad actors - many who operate in the US.
Anti-Drug Unit Officially Shut Down by DOJ
The Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces responsibilities, including 5,000 existing case, have been transferred to a new set of task forces under the Department of Homeland Security.

Once the artists leave the building - it’s worthless. The arrogance of trump and his administration to think they can seamlessly take over the Kennedy Center and eventually improve it. Let alone trump changing the physical beauty of the center to resemble the interior of a Bloomingdale’s ladies room
Washington National Opera may move out of Kennedy Center due to Trump ‘takeover’
Ticket sales at about 40% unsold compared with before president made himself chair of US performing arts center
