Just when everyone had forgotten Trump and the GOP’s jihad against Obamacare....

New insurance rates are going to be announced not long before the midterms.

(Making Pre-Existing Conditions something for people to worry about is pure evil.)

Bill O'Reilly's FB page:
"The American national media think it’s their duty to remove President Trump from office. In particular, the Washington Post is zeroing in on the idea that a coup will overthrow the president. Want specifics? Go to BillOReilly.com."

These people...

Nobody wants a coup.

If the Bimbo In Chief gets impeached and removed from office, it will be on his own accord.

It takes a special sort of miserable fucking shitstain to callously smear heartsick and angry teenagers still processing the horrors of the shooting at their school.

That’s the story, my friend. Trump, who lives for grudges and vendettas, didn’t like Obama making fun of him back in 2011 and this was his payback.

a look at the teenagers trying to stop the next wave of mass shootings

The week ahead is mapped out on whiteboards that were purchased at Target. On the boards are the names of the organizers, with their commitments for the week, and green tape dividing the days in makeshift fashion. Major news network appointments are mixed in with the times of funerals.

As others answered phone calls, Jaclyn Corin, the 17-year-old in charge of logistics for the Tallahassee event on Wednesday, worked on a press release about the event — although she referred to it as “an essay.” The teens are planning to meet with Florida’s attorney general, House speaker, and Senate president. “REMEMBER: THIS IS ALL AT A STATE LEVEL,” Corin wrote in capital letters in the final press release.

Busted because he filmed himself doing it. Idiot.

I hear this crusade of his started over a correspondent’s dinner....

It went on for almost 5 minutes in the White House Correspondents annual dinner in 2011. Seth Meyers got some digs in too.

You can watch Obama's part here
