Hillary’s Plot Against America
American Thinker ^ | October 21, 2016 | Ed Lasky

Posted on 10/21/2016 4:17:15 AM PDT by Kaslin

Recent news and leaks make it clear that a plot is afoot. A smoking gun has been found. Republicans are committing political malpractice by not making it clear they are the last line of defense.

ObamaCare is imploding, as was widely predicted upon its passage by Republicans and a range of non-partisan experts. The ObamaCare meltdown is even worse than we thought. Bloomberg News recently:

A growing number of people in Obamacare are finding out their health insurance plans will disappear from the program next year, forcing them to find new coverage even as options shrink and prices rise.

At least 1.4 million people in 32 states will lose the Obamacare plan they have now, according to state officials contacted by Bloomberg. That’s largely caused by Aetna Inc., UnitedHealth Group Inc. and some state or regional insurers quitting the law’s markets for individual coverage.

Sign-ups for Obamacare coverage begin next month. Fallout from the quitting insurers has emerged as the latest threat to the law, which is also a major focal point in the U.S. presidential election. While it’s not clear what all the consequences of the departing insurers will be, interviews with regulators and insurance customers suggest that plans will be fewer and more expensive, and may not include the same doctors and hospitals.

It may also mean that instead of growing in 2017, Obamacare could shrink. As of March 31, the law covered 11.1 million people; an Oct. 13 S&P Global Ratings report predicted that enrollment next year will range from an 8 percent decline to a 4 percent gain.

...A smoking gun has been found....

Which one?? $12 million from the King of Morocco to meet her? Tens of thousands of emails destroyed after being subpoenaed? Lying to Congress under oath? Or, other ones? Quite a resume from our modern Bonnie Parker. And, don’t forget her partner, Clyde.

There have been so many smoking guns that she should have caught on fire many times and burned out by now.
The USA is in extreme danger.

If it’s like Phillip Roth’s The Plot Against America, it turns out that Lindbergh wasn’t the bad guy in the end. It all tied back to the kidnapping and the Nazis were holding the boy and blackmailing Charles and Ann.

They may have rogue journos, but they don’t have rogue editors. This piece was deliberate. Most likely to tee up single payer.

The “ABC News” link leads to the American Thinker website. So ABC News is not the source.

“... first WAPO now ABC??”

Irrelevant. For one, anyone who reads the compost is already in the Clinton camp and will bypass the article or read it and say, “where did he get his source, the Enquirer?”’ And ABC will give this 30 seconds and say it once.

Easy there. Make sure you peruse the author’s other blogs on American Thinker (not ABC News) such as this one:

“Trump screws everyone but himself”

None of you read beyond the source part. Otherwise you would have noticed the source of the op-ed is not ABC News but American Thinker.

I accidentally got ABC as the source posted. I wonder if you even read the entire peace?

That is correct, I did not type ABC News as the source. Using Firefox, ABC News got put in as the source instead of American Thinker which is the first one on the list.

Tip of the ice berg. These DEA new pain laws are already impacting millions. We were not given a chance for Input. We are chronically ill with incurable diseases or health conditions that cause extreme pain, we do not miss use the medications, nor do we take more than we should, most take only enough to semi function normally and hold a job. Ye we are treated like street junkies with Pee tests every month to 3 months depending on the med, privacy invasions and forced into unemphatic Pain Management on highly restricted doses, most of the new hires are only GP’s not pain specialist and Pain Specialist don’t understand the disase you have. PCP’s are terrified to prescribe pain meds more than 2 weeks at the lowest dose possible. Even Cancer patients are effected.

So you cut and pasted the name of the source into the source field instead of typing it in? Do you some sort of posting bot to streamline the posting process?

Obama just proposed single-payer option to obamacare.

Julie Chen desired for a long time I’m by the Chamber of Commerce to cut the expenses of businesses and dump those Health costs on the government, I would not be surprised for Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell to try to enact that option during the lame-duck session.

It is a uni-party
