- Dems have a good plan that Republicans oppose
- Republicans can’t agree among themselves on a plan of their own

As Republicans reject bill to protect ACA subsidies, what happens now?

Measles outbreaks are surging again, this time in South Carolina.
In normal times, we’d be hearing anticipatory guidance to the public on what to look out for and to encourage vaccination.
These are highly abnormal times and we are filling the void.

The GOP just blocked extending the ACA subsidies - again.
Making people’s healthcare skyrocket while you control the White House and both chambers of Congress seems like a great move for the midterms.

Mockler: As much as the Trump admin tries to act like it's different from prior Republican administrations, they're doing the same thing. They cut taxes for the richest, they cut benefits for the poorest, and then they go to war for either regime change or for oil.

This date in 2024: Wage goth 4.7% and inflation at 2.4%
