Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?
TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

It's not a question of politics or party. Congress has a constitutional obligation to impeach and to remove a president who commits high crimes and misdemeanors and forsakes his solemn oath.
And there has never been a president who has committed as many impeachable offenses than this one.

There's a Hill bubble narrative, posing as savvy realism, in treating impeachment as some radioactive poison and so Democrats must squash any talk of it. But there's zero evidence for that. No polls back it up, nor recent history. It's all just pundit-brained conventional wisdom eating its own tail.

This is eugenics in decent tailoring.
What Kennedy has been pushing and Duffy here channels is the idea that poor health is a moral choice. Good people live the right way (getting their pull-ups in at Gate 17) and enjoy good health.
Lazy weak people don't, and get what's coming to them.
Monsters.

Duffy on what he's doing to improve the airport experience for travelers: "Maybe I want a workout area where people might get some blood flowing doing some pull ups or step ups in the airport."

The current Supreme Court has forfeited all legitimacy.
Democrats (and everyone) need to address that reality.
John Roberts > Roger Taney.
Court needs to expand. And have fixed terms—like *every* other supreme court in developed world. And have ethics rules, like all normal organizations.

Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now.

The Court is out of control, and we'll never see reform unless we build the case for it. Starting now.

My opinion of ACIP from yesterday has been supported by what I’ve seen so far today.
ACIP in its current form is not a legitimate scientific body.
It is an epidemiological crime scene.

It’s because our corporate overlords needed to be lavished with in person praise. Stroking their egos is far more important than having happy employees with a work-life balance.
