It’s a fucking joke
Watching RFK Jr. press conference about menopause hormone therapy (MHT). He doesn't even get the name of the therapy right. Uses old misogynist label HRT.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

So people are just going to have to pay sky high premiums because the GOP is afraid of the Epstein files? I am assuming rates aren’t going to be fixed, so insurers can charge what they want until the government gets it shit together?
