Wait, they're gonna force employers to provide healthcare?!!! And what about retired people in their 70's and 80's? With Alzheimers? In nursing homes, like my mom was when she had Medicaid? Who are their employers? This is a blatant lie, and we're gonna hear it again and again.
Lankford: "People are screaming & saying, 'It's kicking people off Medicaid.' It's not kicking people off Medicaid. It's transitioning from Medicaid to employer-provided healthcare. So yes, we've got 10 mil ppl that are not gonna be on Medicaid, but they are gonna be on employer-provided healthcare"

Thank you.

It takes real courage to rebuke your own bosses on air.

Well done, 60 Minutes. Well done.

Imagine how much better off we'd be if THIS professionalism, transparency, and commitment to journalistic ethics was the norm in the media "industry."
And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Lindsey Graham, a Baptist, is weighing in to suggest Donald Trump as the
next Pope.
Not sure whether to comment on the ridiculousness, the disrespect to Catholics, or question whether Graham needs a brain exam STAT.

It does not matter where this story came from. AMERICANS should be demanding that the tariff be reflected on every receipt because we are paying TAXES to the government that we, at this point, do not get to reflect on our returns. JFC. Americans need to stop being so bovine as consumers.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.
