Well, in some places you legally _have_ to get insurance, so people take the minimum plan, which essentially covers nothing.

Story here. The only problem is "... the inspector general concluded the alteration did not change the validity of the surveillance application."
I guess he can expect to be fired soon.

Not sure whether Armitage72 was joking or hadn't read the cited article since it was updated, but...

I meant that the Inspector General could expect to be fired because he didn't immediately announce that it invalidated the Witch Hunt.

Thank you for the clarification.
Firing inspectors general for doing their job properly should and would raise quite a ruckus, which is far from saying it won't happen.

What I find remarkable is that articles from Kos and Beast have been entered into the congressional record as factually credible "without objection". Thus, anyone who reviews the records of these proceedings will have to regard these online sources with the same legitimacy that was once accorded the print media.

Because they don't realize it's no good until they need to use it. This is the kind of scam that the ACA was intended to reduce; the Trumpers have allowed it to resume.

Great minds think...
Which is, ironically, one of the best things she has going for her.

"I was in charge of the US embassy in London for much of Trump’s first year. We didn’t hang his picture either. Why? It took the WH almost 15 months to get official photos sent to embassies to hang. And we were instructed not to print other photos. https://politico.com/amp/news/2019/"

Others are confirming the not-so-well-staffed White House failed to send pictures to other embassies.

Genius! Don't send pictures and forbid the use of unofficial pictures, complain that they're not using a picture of you, and then fire them!

Was it the one he auctioned off for charity? Or the one he purchased with donors money to his slush fund? I meant foundation.

@SecAzar and I will soon release a plan to let Florida and other States import prescription drugs that are MUCH CHEAPER than what we have now! Hard-working Americans don’t deserve to pay such high prices for the drugs they need. We are fighting DAILY to make sure this HAPPENS...
...While we had the first prescription drug price decrease in 50 years, Americans still pay far too much for drugs – other countries pay far less – that is WRONG! We will soon be putting more options on the table...
...Pelosi and her Do Nothing Democrats drug pricing bill doesn’t do the trick. FEWER cures! FEWER treatments! Time for the Democrats to get serious about bipartisan solutions to lowering prescription drug prices for families...
...House Republicans are showing real LEADERSHIP and prepared to enact bipartisan solutions for drug prices. Do Nothing Democrats are playing partisan politics with YOUR drug prices! We are READY to work together if they actually want to get something done!

I saw a transcript of Lee Zeldin questioning her, and it went on for like a whole page asking if she remembered if they hung his picture up. Brilliant cross-examining there.
I was hoping the answer was something like, "Yeah, I remember when he hung his picture up because we noted that now we had a back up in case we ran out of toilet paper."
