15 disabled people were arrested today for PEACEFULLY protesting the AHCA, which would have a devastating effect on their lives.
Shameful. And once again chipping away at our constitutional rights.

James Comey visits The New York Times building as President Trump admits he did NOT record their conversations and questions what else ousted FBI director leaked to the press

• The former FBI director was spotted at The New York Times' Times Square office on Thursday
• He was accompanied by his wife Patrice Failor and both wore sunglasses
• It came as the president admitted on Twitter that he did not record their meetings before firing Comey on May 9
• Comey admits leaking details of a memo to the Times about an unorthodox meeting he had with the president before he was fired
• The meeting was about the FBI's probe into Michael Flynn and Comey claimed he thought the president was subtly asking him to drop it
• Trump denies ever doing so but is fixated on the leak and has suggested his belief it was one of many

"One of the protesters who was arrested, Mike Oxford, told CNN that the police acted professionally and used accessible paddy wagons with wheelchair lifts to transport the protesters with mobility disabilities."

That was nice of those Capital Hill Cops to use a paddy wagon with a wheelchair lift.

John Depp...he truly is a special one...

 

[GILSAN]

So... beating up your wife isn't bad enough? Now you want to assassinate the President?
Now lets wait for Johnny Depp's press conference to say the Trump family is bullying him.

Depp is right up there with Griffin - self promotional grandstanding publicity hos who do more harm than good. Why even pay attention to them? "Ignored celebrity makes outrageous statement to get free press." Just because their sycophants cheer doesn't mean they speak for anyone else.

Maritime Mystery: Why a U.S. Destroyer Failed to Dodge a Cargo Ship

"The bodies of the seven men who died were recovered by divers from flooded spaces sealed off to keep the ship from foundering, a wrenching decision by officers in the chaotic aftermath of the crash."

A terrible tragedy and awful way to die. May these men rest in peace and happiness...their families and loved ones must be devastated for the loss of life due to human error.

This is what the British Police now drive! Thought criminals beware, the rainbow car of state enforced social justice is here!
What a bunch of Wankers

Think the proposed senate "Better Care" is an improvement over ACA? Interactive map comparing premiums and tax credits for Silver and Bronze plans under both.

TL;DR
This bill is a tax break for the top 1% and a big "F U" to everyone else. With a double "F U" for those who are older, middle income, and a triple "F U" if you happen to live someplace like Alaska or rural Maine.

Projections and estimates about Obama care were mostly wrong. I'm skeptical of projections by partisans.

Sen. Mike Lee has wants an option for stats and individuals to opt out. This would allow stats to tailor care without violating individual rights.

It's too bad the D's are all about #resistance instead of fixing HC. Outrageous claims of blood money, thousands will die, the party of death, on and on. They don't care about people, only power.

VA is a single payer plan that let people die waiting for care. Neither CA or UK have perfect systems. Maybe the US can find a better way?

Likely Obama's only lasting success / legacy will be H/C. Even though O'care failed it, I think national H/C is here to stay.

This type of social engineering destroys public morals. Most pride parades covered in the US are thinly veiled pagan celebrations.

It seems we're supposed to ignore science, biology and accept any and all deviant behavior as normal.

1) Please explain how this hurts our constitutional rights?

2) I would like to know who paid the transportation and expense of these protestors? Seriously.. are we supposed to believe this wasn't propaganda organized by D's?

I'll withhold judgement about the bill until someone has actually read it.

The best thing President Trump could do is publicly ask Nancy Pelosi for help fixing H/C. I don't think she would but it would be an eye-opener.
