Clyburn: "People better get serious about this. When he says he's not joking about throwing away the Constitution, which is what he'd have to do to have a third term, and we are not gonna rise up in opposition to that? I think it's time for us all to wake up."

If a law firm won't risk everything to defend itself, what makes you think it will risk anything to defend you?
My advice: Find a law firm that will not back down and will never bend a knee.

Why did their state pick United Health to cover their Medicaid plan?
While Universal care sounds good. The reality is that our gov approve the Medicare Advantage plans offered by the BUCAs.
Maybe we need to change what we expect and what we need from gov chosen plans first ?
