KFF is not connected with Kaiser Health, so re-branding is a good idea. People make assumptions about (non-existent) ties to the health care conglomerate otherwise.
Trump obviously doesn't give a shit about health care, any more than he does about any other real issue, and thinks if he just rants on occasion about drug prices "going down 500 percent," the health care issue will just go away. Of course, it isn't and won't.
Mike Johnson may or may not yet have lost control of the House but he has definitely lost his empathy even for his own constituents who will not be able to afford their healthcare insurance in January because of his obedience to those who hate Obama more than they care about Americans who depend on the ACA to insure their family’s healthcare needs! Sorry to say but I can’t pretend that I don’t suspect that racism is the basis for their mindless hatred for that program that helps millions of Americans afford healthcare. I think I could respect them more if they just admitted their racism and acknowledged how it alters their opinion of the ACA but they never will be that honest even with themselves!
This is why I can't be a Republican. I'm too confused. Why did they ever start calling the ACA "Obamacare," as it was a good thing that Obama did? How is it that they believed their stupid magas thought it was bad? HInt: because Fox Nooz said it was bad because it was called Obamacare. Why didn't they just give ACA a different name, throw in some gobbledeegook, and claim victory? Honestly, their stupid magas wouldn't have known the difference anyway.
I don’t want people to suffer, especially the ones who didn’t vote for this shit. But I believe we’re going to have to see a lot of people suffering, and likely dying, before this really sinks in. The fucking cult will pay, but unfortunately so will a lot of other people. Hopefully the torches and pitchforks will be well out before the ‘26 election, leading to a massive blue surge that results in an impeachment. 🤞
Will this wave of departures bring in new normal people or more wanting to sniff Rumps ass? Only time will tell.
On the one hand I really want the subsidies to be renewed and on the other hand if they do not then the GOP will be in deep enough doo doo to cinch the midterms for the DEMS. Which way will the wind blow?
They have so much experience in finding those little things for wanking.
Republicans have been revolting since Taft became President.
Ta, Marcie. The last decent (I won't say good) R president was Eisenhower. Mikey Mike can go fuck himself with a rusty garden weasel of votes.
all these R's resigning is just 'i can't win any more so i'm going home' sookiness
--Mel Brooks as King Louis XVI. I did this joke earlier.
How many calories can you burn by constantly running from the press? Asking for a certain speaking-guy.
>>Republicans are revolting!<<
They've always been revolting! Now, they're rebelling-ish.
" ... In one of the greatest loosenings of House Speaker Mike Johnson’s grip since his family installed Covenant Eyes, "
Pure genius.
Best opening sentence! *chef's kiss*

"Brian Fitzpatrick, Robert Bresnahan and Ryan Mackenzie of Pennsylvania"
Pennsylvania is getting blue-er by the minute, or so it seems.
I'll be there in time to vote in '28. (Couldn't make it for '24 but sent my daughter ahead; wasn't enough, tho.),
Huzzah! :D
