Re: Let the truth be known
re: ACA death panels:
Buried deep within Obamacare is a provision that takes away health care from you and your doctors, by taking away payment for critical health care that may be needed to save your life. It is called The Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB).
The board will be independent of you, your doctors, your hospitals, Medicare, Congress, the judiciary, the democratic process, ultimately even the Constitution itself. As the Cato Institute tried to warn us five years ago, IPABCongressIPAB is to be composed of 15 unelected bureaucrats appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. But the board and its powers are so dangerous that even President Obama never made any appointments.
Starting next year, if Medicare spending is projected to grow faster than the rate of economic growth per capita plus 1 percentage point, IPAB is empowered to make a proposal that will cut Medicare spending at least to the targeted growth rate. IPAB will be proposing such Medicare cuts every year starting next year because historically, Medicare spending has grown every year by per capita economic growth plus 2.6 percentage points.
Obamacare, however, expressly excluded IPAB from achieving the required savings by rationing health care, raising taxes, increasing cost-sharing in Medicare, cutting Medicare benefits, or altering Medicare eligibility. That leaves IPABMedicareTRUMP2020

I know you like to post misleading and untrue information, but I'm going to call you out on this one. IPAB was in ACA but it was never used and it was repealed in 2018. Maybe you should take your own advice and read things. Even things that are opposed to your baked in biases.Comment

** that the death panels IPAB was in the ACA**
NOW look at what I said " the death panels WERE real in the ACA.. we know that the dimwits ALL support the ACA and want to revive it..."
never ONCE did I say it was activated .. and the fact that it made it all the way to 2018 (DJT's term) just proves it would have remained in the bill, unless DJT hadn't yanked it.
so Death Panels WERE in the ACA as I stated.

Re: Let the truth be known
Trump made 56 false claims last week, including debunked New Hampshire conspiracy theory
President Donald Trump made 56 false claims last week -- repeating one of his conspiracy theories about the 2016 election, promoting new fiction about impeachment witness Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, and inflating his accomplishments and his standing in the polls.
Among other things.
Fifty-six false claims over seven days (February 10 through February 16) is just about standard for this President. Trump is now averaging about 59 false claims per week since we started keeping track at CNN on July 8.
Trump made 11 of last week's 56 false claims in an interview with Geraldo Rivera on Cleveland radio. But Trump isn't only dishonest when speaking to supporters and average citizens: he also made 11 false claims during a White House gathering with state governors.
Immigration was the most frequent subject of Trump's false claims, with 10, followed by the economy and Democrats at six each. He made five false claims apiece about the Mueller investigation, health care and impeachment.
Trump is now up to 1,873 total false claims since July 8.
The most egregious false claim: The "buses" to New Hampshire
Just as Trump has a handy fictional excuse for why he lost the popular vote in 2016 -- millions of illegal votes in California and maybe elsewhere -- he has a handy fictional excuse for why he didn't win New Hampshire: "hundreds and hundreds of buses" of improper voters, "shipped up" from Massachusetts, he told a rally crowd in New Hampshire last week.
That simply did not happen. This is the President propagating a conspiracy theory, and undermining faith in American democracy, for no good reason.
The most revealing false claim: "Redemption money"
Some of Trump's lies are extravagantly detailed, as if he has rehearsed a long imaginary script. Others are notable for their carelessness, as if he has decided that people will believe him no matter how little effort he has made to make the tale sound precise and convincing.
Trump said the following to his New Hampshire rally crowd about the border wall Americans are paying for: "You do know who's paying for the wall, don't you? Right. Redemption from illegal aliens that are coming in. The redemption money is paying for the wall."
There is no such thing as "redemption money," immigration experts said. Some of the experts thought Trump might have been attempting to refer, rather, to remittance money -- money immigrants send back home to their countries of origin.
This wouldn't have made the claim accurate, since Trump has not implemented any of his proposals to impound or tax remittance money to pay for the wall, but it might have seemed at least slightly more plausible if he had taken the time to memorize the right word.
The most absurd false claim: Impeachment polling
Trump's standing in the polls has improved since Democrats embarked on their impeachment push in the fall. In Gallup polling, he is now at 49% approval, up from 40% in late September.
On February 9, New York Post columnist Miranda Devine wrote: "Trump has gained 10 points since impeachment began in October."
Trump then quoted Devine's words in a tweet. Except, naturally, he changed her "gained 10 points" to "gained 20 points."
Here is the full list of 56 false claims, starting with the ones we haven't previously included in a weekly roundup:
New Hampshire elections
A conspiracy theory about New Hampshire in 2016
"Now I can't tell you what's happening tomorrow because, you know, you have some pretty strange election laws here, right? Remember last time -- we won the primary tremendously? We should've won the election, but they had buses being shipped up from Massachusetts, hundreds and hundreds of buses. And it was very, very close, even though they did. But this year, you know we have a great governor, Governor Sununu, great governor, Chris. And now you get prosecuted if you do what they did, so it should be a lot different." -- February 10 campaign rally in Manchester, New Hampshire
Facts First: There is no evidence for Trump's conspiracy theory that hundreds of buses full of illegal voters were sent from Massachusetts to New Hampshire in the 2016 presidential election. State election officials who conducted a detailed review did not turn up any such evidence.
Republicans voting in the Democratic primary in New Hampshire
"This has been an incredible state for us. It's a state where the people are great, just great people. And we hear that there could be -- because you have crossovers in primaries, don't you? So I hear a lot of Republicans tomorrow will vote for the weakest candidate possible of the Democrats." -- February 10 campaign rally in Manchester, New Hampshire
Facts First: Trump was mistaken: New Hampshire's primary system does not allow true "crossovers," in which people registered for one party can go vote in the other party's primary. Only Democrats and "undeclared" voters, not registered Republicans, were allowed to show up and vote in the Democratic primary the day after Trump spoke here.
Trump might have meant to refer to independents or even registered Democrats who are supportive of Republicans, but what he actually said was inaccurate.
The Snake
Trump introduced "The Snake," a song whose lyrics he uses as an allegory for what he claims is the danger posed by migrants who seem harmless, and said, "This was a song from the 1950s, Al Green..." -- February 10 campaign rally in Manchester, New Hampshire
Facts First: Trump was wrong both about who sang the song and about when the song was released. "The Snake" is an Al Wilson song from 1968, not an Al Green song from the 1950s.
The song was written by Oscar Brown Jr. in 1963; Brown's daughters have complained about Trump's appropriation of their father's words, saying Brown, who died in 2005, would have opposed Trump's agenda and message.
Immigration
"Redemption money" and the wall
"You do know who's paying for the wall, don't you? Right. Redemption from illegal aliens that are coming in. The redemption money is paying for the wall." -- February 10 campaign rally in Manchester, New Hampshire
Facts First: American taxpayers are paying for Trump's border wall. Immigration experts say "redemption money" is not even a term they are familiar with. Some guessed that Trump might have meant remittance money -- money immigrants send back home to their countries of origin -- but that wouldn't make Trump's claim any more factual: he has not implemented any of his proposals to pay for the wall by taxing or impounding remittances.

a family of 5 near fayetteville nc nearly died due to advanced stages Ebola from beef from mexico. one of the younger kids was in PediICU for nearly a month due to extreme fluid loss. they went to the local "doc in the box" clinic where they were diagnosed with the FLU! There were no cultures taken, no blood taken for analysis.
Yes the whole family had medicare health plan. The really sad part was they didn't get to see a GP.... but rather a PA that had just started in the clinic, and had very poor grades in med school. He was a black student that got in med school because of Affirmative Action.
they whole family did survive and lawsuits have been filed on the PA and clinic.Comment
