Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Friday, November 07, 2025

With the tax credits set to expire at the end of this year, many policyholders are learning the ACA, commonly referred to as Obamacare, will no longer be affordable unless Congress intervenes.

Nothing like a Gatsby party for your uber rich friends at Mar-A-Lago while millions of your neighbors get priced out of health insurance. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, @warren.senate.gov and I just touched down in Florida because while Trump won't fight for his neighbors, we will.

The GOP doesn't care.

They are starving children and families to force the democrats into taking away health insurance from the middle class.

This is all out of Project 2025 which ALL OF THEM LIED WHEN THEY SAID THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.

Then they downplay the ass kicking they got on Tuesday. From local elections to school boards to state elections to governorships to mayoral races trumpism became toxic.

Every single member of Klanned Karenhood running for school boards in PA lost.

The 10 month reign of fascism has awoken the voters.

"Assault a law enforcement officer, and you'll be prosecuted," Pirro (and Bondi) said. What they neglected to mention is that after the prosecution, if the president decides he approves of the motivation of those who committed the assault, they'll be shielded from any consequences for their actions.

Like the J6 insurrectionists.

They assaulted the Capitol police with pepper spray flagpoles and shields and anything they could scrounge up.

Trumpy pardoned them.

A citizen throws a sandwich at Trumpy's ICEholes and Trumpy's minions get unhinged and try (unsuccessfully) to prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law and (successfully) destroy his livelihood(so he can no longer afford to fight back) .

Welcome to Trumplandia and the Great FAFO.

I have been saying this Corky, but only now you guys listen. Inflation isn't "transitory" like Snoofy said 3-4years ago.

Its real and will continue until the government stops printing money, which means it has to stop spending. What you are asking is for the country to keep spending, and thus creating more DEBT. In the next thread you'll complain about Trumps $38Trillion in debt.

Americans have no idea what they are advocating, I suspect they are just economically illiterate given the ability to print USD has hidden them from reality..

ACA is a failure.

It requires more and more money to prop it up.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Perhaps if dems had fixed it instead of propping it up, we wouldn't be in the situation we are today.

Let it collapse under its own weight and let Trump fix it.

ABSOLUTE 100% TRUE FACTS ABOUT ABORTION

In the entirety of modern human history, no woman has willingly sought an abortion for a wanted child. Not at 9 hours. Not at 9 days. Not at 9 weeks. Not at 9 months. Not ever. WITH ONE VERY IMPORTANT EXCEPTION

But, in the entirety of modern human history, and for many individual reasons, women have sought to terminate the pregnancy of an unwanted child.

Each reason is as individual as the woman seeking to terminate the unwanted child. Sometimes the pregnancy is a result of rape or ------. But whatever the reason, no law or religious dogma has ever stopped women from seeking an abortion for an unwanted child. Nor will it. Not now, not ever.

ONE VERY IMPORTANT EXCEPTION: The most tragic abortions are for women carrying a wanted child but find out that their personal health is at risk. Or that it is an ectopic pregnancy. Or their chance for a future child is jeopardized. Or, the wanted child has no chance to live outside of the womb.

The last scenario is especially hideous: The prognosis for Potter's syndrome is very poor. Most babies with this condition do not survive beyond birth due to respiratory failure. IOW, the mother holds her newborn child while the child SUFFOCATES TO DEATH IN HER ARMS... AND THERE'S NOTHING SHE CAN DO ABOUT IT BUT WATCH HER BABY DIE A HORRIBLE DEATH. This can go on for up to 45 minutes, sometimes even longer.

These are tragic circumstances that, yes, sometimes only become apparent at close to 9 months. This is a fact, a very tragic fact, but a fact, nonetheless. It is also a fact that an abortion is sometimes the only option available for the woman and her family.

Nothing " NOTHING " you or anyone can say will alter these...

Purpose of the ACA:

'The purpose of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was to make health insurance more affordable and accessible for millions of Americans by expanding coverage, reforming the private insurance market, and lowering costs.

Dem created program and only dems pushed it through and as for its purpose it is a abject failure. So new we need more taxpayers monies to help the recipients.

Anyone with healthcare insurance through their companies have had their premiums rise over they years so I guess the government should also subsidize that as well, as those very people in those private programs are also paying taxes that the dems want to give to the ACA. Fact is, like anyone else, those on the ACA should ante up like an adult.

FYI: The costs associated with the Affordable Care Act (ACA) were rising before COVID-19, primarily due to increasing healthcare costs, higher premiums, and growing enrollment.

COVID is long over, your dems set the extra COVID subsidy to end in 2025 and there is no reason to extend it.

#76 Ever since the election a year ago, everyone from Trump on down has loved, just loved to say how the American people put them in charge of the White House, the Senate, the House, and, of course, SCOTUS.

They have made sure that everyone, including the American people, knows that they're the ones in charge. "HaHaHa, Democrats... we own you...you lost" they sneer.

Yep. They LOL at Democrats, calling them losers. Taunting about a Vance/Rubio ticket 2028-2036. "HaHaHa" or "LOL" is their go-to line about Democrats.

It seems that the Americans got the message: Trump and the GOP own Washington DC. Not Democrats.

So, if you're just NOW claiming that the solution to the health care crisis has to be to ask Democrats what they want, good luck.

Trump can barely keep his eyes open let alone anything else. BTW Trump doesn't care about healthcare for anyone else but himself. I don't know why you can't see this. I guess it's what happens when you are a cultist. You will bend the knee every time. Sad that be.

#76 Half of Congress, the House, is in recess with no end in sight.

Because Speaker Mike (R-Of course) REFUSES to bring the House back into session.

Because of the Epstein files.

But the House WILL NOT be back in session, anytime in the foreseeable future.

So where is all this "working together" supposed to come from?

Your imagination?

One suspects that Trumpers must always trash their cars and houses BEFORE they buy new ones, right?

Republicans have had at least a couple of decades to come up with a new healthcare plan, and they are trashing the people in the ACA now before they have a new plan.

They are cutting off the healthcare to millions to spite the Democrats.

#79 I had to LOL at your fantastic comment.

For the past 4+ years, the Trump has referred to former President Biden as "Sleepy Joe."

'Tis always a confession or projection with those people.

Always.

#76 The Trump is supposed to hold Democrats' feet to the fire? Hell, he won't even invite them to the White House for a conference.

On what Earth do you live?

Face facts: Ever since the election a year ago, everyone from Trump on down has loved, just loved to say how the American people put them in charge of the White House, the Senate, the House, and, of course, SCOTUS.

They have made sure that everyone, including the American people, knows that they're the ones in charge. "HaHaHa, Democrats... we own you..." they sneer.

Yep. They LOL at Democrats, calling them losers. Taunting about a Vance/Rubio ticket 2028-2036. "HaHaHa" or "LOL" is their go-to line about Democrats.

It seems that the Americans got the message: Trump and the GOP own Washington DC. Not Democrats.

So, if you're just NOW claiming that the solution is for the Trump to hold the Democrats' feet to the fire?

The American people ain't buying it.

Republicans are garbage people.

They expect people to give up their healthcare and die in the streets.

But democrats aren't willing to sign that bill.

So republicans are denying people food.

Trump literally went to the Supreme Court to prevent emergency funding to be used to provide Americans food assistance.

Meanwhile ICE remains fully funded, as do all of Trump's pet projects, like his golden ballroom, jets for Kashyap and Noem, and billions for Argentina.

Truth,

"The mandate pushed healthy people into the pool thus reducing risk and thus cost"

Shows you just don't get it.

Making more people pay in doesn't do a thing to reduce costs. It spreads the costs out over more people but doesn't reduce total costs one penny.

In fact, they'll rise.

Basic Economics 101.

A,

"The American people ain't buying it."

Doesn't matter who buys what.

End of 2025 is nearly here.

Time for dems to s--- or get off the pot.

BullJohnson is a proud garbage person who believes billionaires deserve tax cuts and poor people deserve to be denied healthcare and food.

What a ------- piece of ---- he is.

Trump got Republicans to stop pretending they believed in human decency.

They're nothing but creatures of hate.

At least Jim Jones gave HIS Cult kool aide.

Trump's Cult just has to suck on his lies... and like it.

Bill has nothing.

He's an empty husk of a human being.

A soulless ghoul who's only concern is spreading hate and misery.

It was cyanide laced Flavor Aid. A Kool Aid knock off.

Fixed for historic accuracy.

Donald Trump went all the way to the Supreme Court to keep food away from hungry children.

You can stop pretending it's the Democrats fault, now.
