And the premiums.

But that's why we have the ACA

Even with the ACA, people still have to make up 35% of their premiums. I wonder how easy that 35% is to come up with, now that they've lost their source of money, their job?

Agreed. It was a stoopid fucking law.

So, Ben Carson being there really adds to the confidence....right?

The literal brain surgeon who coughed in to his hand during a presser and then touched other people before he washed/sanitized it? Of course he does. Especially when he starts to nod off.

FFS:

The Justice Department has quietly asked Congress for the ability to ask chief judges to detain people indefinitely without trial during emergencies — part of a push for new powers that comes as the coronavirus spreads through the United States....

The proposal would also grant those top judges broad authority to pause court proceedings during emergencies. It would apply to “any statutes or rules of procedure otherwise affecting pre-arrest, post-arrest, pre-trial, trial, and post-trial procedures in criminal and juvenile proceedings and all civil process and proceedings,” according to draft legislative language the department shared with Congress. In making the case for the change, the DOJ document wrote that individual judges can currently pause proceedings during emergencies, but that their proposal would make sure all judges in any particular district could handle emergencies “in a consistent manner.”

PRE-arrest?

Fuck off.

I have to admit, it's certainly "stoopid" compared to the republican "plan" to replace it.

Why don't you remind us what that "plan" was.

tia.

Oh, and don't leave out any of the details, specifically, how much lower COBRA premiums would have been under the republican replacement "plan".

You worry a lot about who intimidates me, and I appreciate that.

So, why the fuck was the head of HUD on the stage in a discussion about virus mitigation?

Was Dr Drew busy?

"My own personal theory is that Joseph built the pyramids to store grain. Now all the archaeologists think that they were made for the pharaohs’ graves. But, you know, it would have to be something awfully big if you stop and think about it. And I don’t think it’d just disappear over the course of time to store that much grain,"

Talk about "bipartisanship"!

No, I don't mean Mike Lee and AOC.
But then, what's more heartwarming than to see DC endorsing AOC's pov?
