    Re: How Russia hacked the Democrats email

    He hasn't taken healthcare away from anyone. For all those who think Obamacare is healthcare, try living on it for a few months. Watch your paycheck disappear, and still have to pay for the doctor visits. Obamacare is a sham, and we've finally got a president with enough gonads to call it what it is.

      Sorry but when taken before the Supreme Court the so called Affordable Healthcare Act was defended not as a healthcare bill but as a tax package. From that bastion of right wing rhetoric here is a report about the ruling and the arguments made before the court.

          The US will not be prepared to defend against possible Russian meddling in the 2018 midterm elections or the 2020 Presidential contest unless it takes action now, according to a new report released today detailing the extent to which Moscow has tried to shape elections across Europe.



          The report details Russia's arsenal of military invasions, disinformation campaigns, corruption and its weapon-ization of energy resources. The report demonstrates how Moscow's attacks have intensified in scale and complexity hitting Britain, Germany, France as well as the Ukraine and other smaller countries.

          The report released by Senator Ben Cardin (D) Maryland draws from the European experience to outline ways in which Russia's"malign influence operations" can be deterred.

          Titled "Putin's Asymmetrical Assault on Democracy in Russia and Europe: Implications for US National Security" it was research and written by Cadin staff members who interviewed European ambassadors in the US and traveled to Europe to talk to gov't officials, NGOs and media groups about Russian interference in their countries.

          The report warns that unless the US acts to counter the threat soon, Moscow will only grow more aggressive. The report adds a crucial caveat, given President Trump's repeated refusal to acknowledge US intelligence assessments that Russia interfered in the 2016 election.

          "Trump has been negligent", the report says.

          "Without leadership from the President, any attempt to marshal such a response will be inherently weakened at the outset," it says. "President Trump has been negligent in acknowledging and responding to the threat to US national security posed by [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's meddling."
          Cardin, speaking at the German Marshall Fund on Wednesday, said that, "we don't have a President yet to fully acknowledge what Russia did to the United States in the elections. When you have that ambiguity, you don't have the consistency, you don't have all the strategy to protect the country [coming] from the President."
          "That," Cardin said, "compromises our national security."
          The administration pushed back hard. "We are happy that Congress agrees with our Intelligence Community's assessment regarding the Russian threat," the National Security Council said in a statement. "This Administration has no higher priority than protecting the national security and public safety of the United States. Some of our efforts will be seen and some will not, but there will most certainly be consequences for those who seek to interfere with our elections. We look forward to Congress's participation while continuing the Administration's steadfast efforts to counter Russian malign activities and protect future elections."

          The report calls for Trump to establish a high-level inter-agency group to coordinate US policy in response to the Russian government's operations. It also calls on the President to present Congress with a comprehensive strategy that deals with all aspects of Russia's disruptive tactics.

          Cardin is releasing the report as FBI and congressional probes into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia continue and relations between Washington and Moscow have entered a deep chill, despite Trump's oft-stated desire for a closer relationship with Russia and Putin.

          The report comes a few weeks before a deadline for the administration to announce secondary sanctions against companies and individuals who do business with Russian intelligence and military entities. The State Department missed its first deadline on those sanctions, and lawmakers are watching closely to see whether the administration complies promptly.

          "If the United States fails to work with urgency to address this complex and growing threat, the regime in Moscow will become further emboldened," the report says. "It will continue to develop and refine its arsenal to use on democracies around the world, including against US elections in 2018 and 2020."

          US must act now to ward off more Russian election meddling, report says - CNNPolitics

            Are Europeans really that stupid... that they can't withstand "disinformation?"

            Anyone who claims Obamacare is great, isn't on it. Someone is not being honest.

              It really isn't for you to decide whether it works for someone else. So, you may be right "someone is not being honest"

                No it's not for me to decide. I know for an absolute fact that Obamacare is terrible "insurance." Anyone who claims otherwise is not forced to use it. Anyone who claims to use it and like it is lying.

                  In the Nov 2017 enrollment period for Obamacare, 8.8 million Americans freely elected to sign up for insurance coverage. This was a 4% decline from the previous year. Enrollment might have been higher had the Republican party not tried to suppress sign ups due to a lack of advertising, a significant reduction in people to explain the the programs and a reduction in insurance companies willing to offer coverage.

                    Fact is ..During all the town hall meeting and interviews about the A.C.A....Obama and all the Democrats constantly and consistently flat out lied to us about "Obamacare" and it's benefits.

                      You don't speak for anyone but yourself. You have NO idea how many Millions of people use and LIKE the ACA. Affordable Care ACT

                      Florida once again led the 39 states using healthcare.gov with 1.7 million consumers signed up.

                      Guess your avatar sums you up. Stick to the Thread How Russia hacked the Democrats email

                      Mr. Steele also reported, in pages submitted just 11 days after a Russian lawyer reportedly promised Mr. Trump’s aides negative information on Hillary Clinton during a meeting in Trump Tower, that “the Kremlin had been feeding Trump and his team valuable intelligence on his opponents, including Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.”


                      “One large portion of the dossier is crystal-clear, certain, consistent and corroborated,” a C.I.A. veteran, John Sipher, wrote recently. “Russia’s goal all along has been to do damage to America and our leadership role in the world.”

                        "Obamacare" or the ACA, is not insurance. It is a program that makes the Blue Cross Blue Shield policy I have cost $400 instead of $1200. Without it, my wife and I would have none. I like having insurance and I am not lying.

                          It'll be even lower next year when it's no longer illegal to not be covered.
