President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday tapped Dr. Mehmet Oz, a former television talk show host and heart surgeon, to head the agency that oversees health insurance programs for millions of older, poor and disabled Americans. “Dr. Oz will be a leader in incentivizing Disease Prevention, so we get the best results in the World for every dollar we spend on Healthcare in our Great Country,” Trump said in a statement. “He will also cut waste and fraud within our Country’s most expensive Government Agency, which is a third of our Nation’s Healthcare spend, and a quarter of our entire National...

President-elect Donald Trump announced Tuesday he was picking Dr. Mehmet Oz to run the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Trump said in a statement that Oz, who unsuccessfully ran for the Senate two years ago, would work closely with Health and Human Services Secretary-designate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “to take on the illness industrial complex, and all the horrible chronic diseases left in its wake.” “Dr. Oz will be a leader in incentivizing Disease Prevention, so we get the best results in the World for every dollar we spend on Healthcare in our Great Country,” added Trump, 78. “He...

Donald Trump has picked TV personality and former Senate candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz as his nominee to lead the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The 78-year-old president-elect said Oz, aged 64, will work closely with Health and Human Services Secretary nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to take on the 'industrial illness complex'. Oz lost his Pennsylvania Senate race in 2022 to John Fetterman after beating the now U.S.-Senator-elect David McCormick in the Republican primary. Prior to running for the Senate, Oz hosted the Dr. Oz Show and was a frequent guest on Oprah Winfrey’s show. His syndicated talk show...

Former President Donald Trump has been under attack since he began stumping for GOP candidates ahead of the midterms. Those incendiary remarks have gone into overdrive since Election Day on Wednesday, even from Republican supporters who spoke out against him after he referred to Florida governor Ron DeSantis as “Ron DeSanctimonious” during a final rally pre-midterm rally in Pennsylvania.Throughout the election, Trump has been a top supporter of Pennsylvania Senate candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz, which earned his criticism, most notably from one of his biggest media adversaries, Maggie Hagaman of the New York Times. After Oz’s stunning loss to John...

Last May, when Trump endorsed Oz for the Republican Senate nomination over David McCormick, many of the state's loyal conservatives balked. Dave Ball, the Washington County GOP chairman who flipped his county from blue to red in voter registration, said at the time, “What the hell was he thinking?” When Mastriano surged comfortably ahead in the polls for the GOP gubernatorial nomination in the weeks before the May primary, I reported extensively on the Republicans' fears that Mastriano would drag the party down, including its Senate nominee; within days of that story, Trump endorsed Mastriano.

Donald Trump is said to be 'livid' this morning and 'screaming at everybody' after a lackluster performance by Republicans in the midterms - and is even rumored to be blaming his wife Melania for advising him to endorse defeated Pennsylvania candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz. The House and Senate both still hang in the balance today despite the promised 'red tsunami' of Republican support. While results in key swing states like Arizona and Georgia are still pending, many are calling Trump the biggest loser of the night with Republicans swearing him off, and throwing their weight behind Florida Governor Ron DeSantis...

Looks like the Fetterman is trying to stuff the ballot box

As legal battle explodes over ballots and voters scramble to fix mistakes Both Pennsylvania Senate hopefuls Democrat John Fetterman and Republican Dr. Mehmet Oz cast their votes in person on Election Day morning Fetterman and his wife Gisele pulled up to their polling place in Braddock in a pick-up truck, with Fetterman sporting gym shorts His campaign told reporters he would not be answering questions at his polling site, as he wouldn't be able to understand them due to his ongoing auditory processing issues - the after-effects from his May stroke Oz spoke to Fox & Friends and reporters at...

Lt. Gov. John Fetterman’s campaign for U.S. Senate has joined the legal fight over whether mail ballots with no date or the incorrect date should be counted in Tuesday’s election. The Democratic campaign sued Pennsylvania elections officials Monday asking a federal judge to order that all mail ballots be counted regardless of what date, if any, voters wrote on the outside of the envelope. State law requires that voters handwrite a date on the outer envelope when returning their mail ballots, and the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled last week that undated and wrongly dated mail ballots be set aside and...

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Some of Pennsylvania's largest counties were among those working Monday to help voters fix mail-in ballots that have fatal flaws such as incorrect dates or missing signatures on the envelopes used to send them in. Elections officials in Philadelphia and Allegheny, which includes Pittsburgh, announced measures they were taking in response to state Supreme Court orders in recent days that said mail-in ballots may not be counted if they lack accurate handwritten dates on the exterior envelopes. Ahead of Tuesday's midterms, more than a million mail-in and absentee ballots have already been returned in Pennsylvania, with...

Hey, so remember that time the other day when President Joe Biden promised that “we’re gonna be shutting these [coal] plants down all across America”? VIDEO AT LINK............... Remember how the following day, Biden’s press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre attempted — quite poorly — to walk Biden’s remarks back? She claimed that his remarks had “been twisted” by people with bad intentions, and that he was really and truly and sincerely sorry if anyone took his comments to mean that he was promising to shut down coal plants when he said he’d shut down coal plants. “I apologize if you were...

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace claimed Monday on ABC’s “The View” that the Republican Party stands for not condemning antisemitism and “owning the libs.” Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “Let me ask you this though. Some Trump-backed candidates are in tight, tight races. Dr. Oz, J.D. Vance, Kari Lake and of course, the Heisman Trophy winner Herschel Walker. Even with accusations about Walker paying ex-girlfriends to get abortions, the Republicans seem to be focused on getting the Senate at any cost.” She asked, “What is your view of that, and what does the party stand for right now?”

John Fetterman, the Democratic candidate running for the Pennsylvania Senate, has sent out a memo warning that the election-reporting process could be delayed by a while and to "buckle up" for a long week ahead. In his memo, Fetterman lashed out at many Republicans whom he claimed would try to delegitimize the results, including Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Tucker Carlson, Doug Mastriano, and even his opponent Mehmet Oz. GOP nominee Doctor Mehmet Oz is currently polling neck and neck against Democrat Lieutenant Governor John Fetterman. On Sunday's episode of Meet the Press host Chuck Todd told his audience to expect...

Nov 7, 2022 Voter asks Gisele Fetterman for permission to let John Fetterman speak.

Pennsylvania Senate nominee John Fetterman (D) said on Monday that he expects his opponent Mehmet Oz (R) to lead initially in the state on Tuesday night due to the sequence of vote counting. The Democratic Lt. Gov. of Pennsylvania said that the GOP planned voting so that their party could “baselessly sow doubt about the election results when it suits them.” “Counting for ballots cast by mail and early in-person cannot begin until Election Day, thanks to the GOP-controlled legislature,” Fetterman wrote in a memo according to The Washington Post, calling the move “intentional” to help Republicans contest election results.

President Joe Biden (D) snapped at a young woman who attended a political rally that he hosted on Sunday at Sarah Lawrence College in New York for gubernatorial candidate Kathy Hochul. “No more drilling. There is no more drilling,” Biden snapped at a young woman in the crowd. “I haven’t formed any new drilling.” “There are at least five more years of offshore drilling,” the woman shouted back. “— in the Atlantic or the Pacific but in the Antarctic and off the gulf of New Mexico.” “That was before I was president,” Biden responded. “We’re trying to work on that...

The Biden Administration will be known to history for many things: an open border and its deadly consequences, the abandonment of Afghanistan, weakness that led to catastrophe in Europe, skyrocketing inflation, and the use of federal law enforcement to target political opponents. ... American people must deliver to Joe Biden an unequivocal message: that they refuse to be gaslit, that they are not buying what he is selling. .... Biden’s open border. The reversal of Trump-era border enforcement, and his effective encouragement of illegal border crossings, has led to widespread human suffering. ... Americans are dying, too, as toxic fentanyl...

Pecksville, Lackawanna County — State Senator and Republican gubernatorial nominee Doug Mastriano was holding his 'Restore Freedom Tour' in Monroe, Luzerne and Lackawanna counties today. Mastriano is asking Pennsylvanians to volunteer for his campaign in the hopes that he can beat his Democratic challenger Attorney General Josh Shapiro next month.
