Right-wing calls to end ACA subsidies are unwittingly aiding and abetting the formation of a single-payer health care system. This is because they will show why Obama and Congress established the subsidies in the first place, namely that real markets don't serve patients.

Some of my best medical students have been and are Somali Americans. The President is a disgrace. Will Ohio Republicans speak out? Local Somalis say Trump could target Columbus next after Minnesota attack https://t.co/ruD6qtVZVg

We used to despise carpetbaggers in Ohio. We should despise them again, especially when they represent vulture capital private equity interests.
Huge Ohio football day today! Including my Youngstown State Penguins taking on @VivekGRamaswamy’s Yale Bulldogs in the FCS playoffs today. Hey Vivek, If Yale wins, I’ll buy your campaign team a case of Penguin City Brewing Co beer. If we win, I guess you can fly us something from

Bresnahan needs to go. Pass it on.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Republican Rep. Rob Bresnahan dumped $130,000 in Medicaid-linked stocks SEVEN days before he voted to slash nearly $1 TRILLION from Medicaid. He even VOWED to ban stock trades…then executed 530 trades in office. Millions will lose care. LET’s SHAME HIM!

Oh.
RFK Jr had committed to Bill Cassidy, as a condition to win his vote, that he would keep website language. Cassidy in February: “If confirmed… CDC will not remove statements on their website pointing out that vaccines do not cause autism.” Note the language in second photo.

A snake oil salesman at work.
Lower home ownership costs by slashing property taxes. Lower electric bills by producing more energy. Lower house prices by building more housing. Lower inflation by cutting excess government spending. This is how we make the American Dream affordable & Ohio will lead the way

You have to earn more than 100% of poverty to even be eligible for ACA subsidies (originally everyone up to 133% of poverty was to be covered by Medicaid before SCOTUS made that optional).
The D exaggerations and hysteria about health care premiums becoming suddenly unaffordable leading to death and destruction are about to be seen as myths. Premiums for those in poverty will now go from $0/ month to…$0/month. No change! A family of four making $32,150 (100% of
