Andy Slavitt, who was acting CMS administrator from 2015 to 2017, accused Trump on TwAndy Slavitt, who was acting CMS administrator from 2015 to 2017, accused Trump on Twitter of "purposely raising" health-care premiums as part of his plan to let ObamaCare "implode."
"I ran this government agency under President Obama," Slavitt wrote. "Make no mistake. Trump is purposely raising people's premiums." Slavitt was reacting to news reports that Oklahoma's health commissioner was blaming the Trump administration for missing a deadline to approve a waiver for the state, which Oklahoma officials say will mean higher premiums for thousands of residents.
"Three days later, beyond health plan commitment and rate filing deadlines, Oklahoma is forced to withdraw our waiver request due to the failure of departments to provide timely waiver approval," Oklahoma Health Commissioner Terry Cline wrote to administration officials earlier Friday.
"The lack of timely waiver approval will prevent thousands of Oklahomans from realizing the benefits of significantly lower insurance premiums in 2018," the letter added, saying approving the waiver would have helped more than 130,000 Oklahomans and reduced premiums by 30 percent.
I just want to continue pointing out that Trump is doing this kind of shit on purpose.
Because you well know that the Republicans are going to try and push through yet ANOTHER version of their "health care" bill, this one I imagine will simply provide trucks that will drive around dispensing band aids for boo boos, and a bullet in the head for serious injuries or inoperable cancer, and when they are criticized they will say "Well he gotta do something, cause Obamacare is failing."
Yeah it's going to start failing, because they are actively starving it to death.
They are like a kid with a new gerbil who never feeds or waters it, and when it dies complains that his grandmother bought him a defective pet
Trump is already facing lawsuits over his failure to provide what the law demands. No one is fooled by his undermining of the ACA. It will go to court, just like all of his other crap and he’ll lose again because he is a LOSER!
ReplyDeleteBut it won’t help Oklahoma any. Someone needs to step up and repeat over and over and over to those fucking asshole morons that Trump and the Republicans did this to them so when you vote in 2018, DON’T VOTE FOR THEM!
If the Republicans don’t lose in 2018 they will have simply learned that they can pull all of this shit and never suffer the consequences. That is how spoiled brats are created.
Someone tell trump if he wants to be remembered he needs to fucking flip off the nra and sign a gun reform exec order.
ReplyDeleteOT My first angry reaction to th Las Vegas massacre is I hope all of the gun nuts are happy anyone can buy an arsenal of assault weapons.
ReplyDeleteListening to talking head experts I am hearing this is a suicide mission.
DeleteAlso a mass shooting mission.
Gun nuts will not like having to write or say anything about guns in regard to these sniper type slaughtering incidents.
Dead people and their families are second or less to the NRA and gun nuts when it comes to anything like this.
So, 50 dead and hundreds wounded. That will distract us from kneegate and ricogate and russia gate for a tad now, won't it?
ReplyDeleteHow did a shooter get the windows open on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay?
Reports of multiple shooters.
People are dead and gravely wounded, but by whom??
Did anyon see the video of the concert goer who was interviewed and said two women turned around to her 45 minutes before the shooting and said "you're all gonna die"? How did they know? Why were they not afraid? Ask questions peeps. This was orchestrated and not by a lone gunman.
I heard ISIS will take credit for what went down at the Mandalay, it is what they do.
DeleteRussia and operatives will be working overtime to make their spin seem pertinent and relative.
We already know the so-called American way is to leave guns out of this.

Is Trump busy looking for another golf trophy to dedicate since he already did one for Puerto Rico?
DeleteThe dude in the pic looks like he stepped in a pile of Drumpf doodoo. Nose is wrinkling up. Yup,buddy, you stepped in it.Now throw yer foot away.
ReplyDeleteOf coarse Trump is trying to undo the Affordable Care Act and it's monies. Putin told him to undo everything. Trump is a busy man. His list of Putin's to-do is very long. Almost 500 years long of undoing to do here in America by that uncouth vulgarian that is supposedly loved by the other uncouth vulgarians of our country. It's the age of barbarism again. There are forces that want America brought down. Trump is doing it now as we speak. His lukewarm condolences were meant to make you feel more helpless at how uncommanding he is as a "leader". We are well on our way to being Putin's puppet country.
ReplyDeleteIf this is true, why isn't Trump being impeached? He is NOT supportive of America in any way! He is ruining our country.
ReplyDeleteDo something American voters!!!
Because REPUBLICANS. They want the ACA gone and Trump is doing it for them. This is how they undermined education so it's not like they're against fiscal starvation of something they hate.
DeleteWashington Post:
ReplyDeleteTrump’s company had more contact with Russia during campaign, according to documents turned over to investigators.....
(Plus)
.... A spokesman for Rtskhiladze, Melanie A. Bonvicino, confirmed the proposal for a Trump-branded residential development, saying a 13-page document with pictures was delivered in October 2015.
But, Bonvicino said, Cohen informed Rtskhiladze in 2015 that the Trump company could not pursue the project because it was already committed to another developer in Russia — a reference to the proposal being guided by Sater.
