Gupta: Could I see his doctor say, “Hey, we’re worried about his neurologic status,” or that they’re seeing something they’re not being clear about with the public, and that prompting MRIs at some every-so-often cadence? Yeah, that would make sense. That would actually be entirely appropriate to do.

Not in Wisconsin, and not in Arkansas. Wisconsin was once the center of progressivism in the midwest, but Vos has spent 15 years turning it into Wississippi.

THAT'S LITERALLY HOW THE SUBSIDIES & ACA EXCHANGES WORK ALREADY.

CONSUMERS ARE INFORMED BY COMPARING POLICIES ON THE ACA EXCHANGES, THEN THEY PURCHASE ONE AND THE GOVERNMENT PAYS SOME OR ALL OF THE COST OF THAT POLICY.

Cassidy: "The president is proposing that we take the $26b that would be going to insurance companies if we just do an extension and give it directly to the American people in which 100% of the money is used for them to purchase healthcare on their own terms. That makes them an informed consumer."

Just now: The plaintiffs who were arguing that Utah GOP's congressional map is illegal won in court.

The judge orders one of the two maps submitted by the plaintiffs ('map 1') be used.

The ruling, if it stands, guarantees that Democrats will pick up a congressional seat in Utah next year.
