Breaking News:

 

FBI Chief James Comey is now facing investigation over his pre-election handling of Hillary Clinton's e-mails. Namely, that letter that was put out 2 weeks prior to the general election.

 

Very late in coming.

I honestly didn't think anyone would give a crap and that he'd get away with it.

So which list is longer: the number of people Billary allegedly had killed, or the number of people whose careers and reputation have been tarnished thanks to Trump and this rotten election?

Don't assume he will, dragonflies.  This could all end in nothing.

He should he investigated for doing basically nothing to date with allegations of foreign ties to a potential president.

 

Seriously does it matter? He should resign and someone else needs to be in charge. He clearly has lost control over the agency, if he every had it to begin with.

I wanna cry, I'm in tears now. They're trying to gut Obamacare and I'm fucked if they do

That happened to us all when Trump was elected President.

I wish there were something I could say to or do for you, dragonflies.  I'm just so sorry (and so angry) that this country is ready to disappoint you and a great many others.

We knew they were going to try this. Keep calling and writing. Let your senators know you are watching them Portman especially can be an ally.

 

Is Ohio one of the states talking about partnering with other states to create their own marketplace? I can find out for you.

I think Kasich will fight for it. This just means alot more people will be going on disability since the won't be able to afford to go the doctor anymore

There are several states talking about partnering to create their own marketplace if this were to happen. I'll get that information for you and if Kasich is a supporter, he'd push for it I expect.

Like Jane says, there is some hope that Ohio will create it's own exchange. I'll be rooting for that to happen.

Sorry if I'm being annoying, I like Kasich and I can see him and Portman and other Ohio Politician's doing this.

 

I'm on Medicaid. So I think I will be okay cause Kasich is the one who expanded it to begin with. Not many states did this

You are NOT being annoying. Don't ever think that. But I do believe if worst case happens and it goes, the blue states will band together and create their own marketplace. And honestly I do think states like Ohio and Wisconsin could easily opt to be part of that.  In fact they may already have.  I have an ACA committee meeting tomorrow evening and I'll find out there and who you can contact in Ohio.

Kasich is kind of a dead man walking now. His stance against Trump is coming back to bite him. The head of the Ohio Republicans - who also opposed Trump then came around - has been replaced by a staunch Trump supporter and even the Lt. Gov has walked away from him. It's just a matter of time before Trump decides to tear Kasich to pieces.

You aren't. Everyone needs to see the real life effect this has on individuals.
