Beso, they've got several. The problem is there are too many of the inner party that are 'pubs embedded in the graft-ocrocy. That will fight any attempt to slow down the money river.
As far as I'm concerned the only change needed is to return to the system circa 2008. Then tweak a few things like inter-state insurance and maybe a Medicaid twist.

ACA is going to die anyway, with more and more insurance companies pulling out of the market and the monthly costs rising significantly, there is a fair chance that the ACA will be gone by 2018.

now they've dismantled Milo, is this the next target? They really don't want to submit to civilian rule they disagree with. They want to control the president.

Since I have no idea any more what 'torture' means when they complain about it this only bores me. You can legally force someone to undergo "Sensitivity Training", which isn't torture supposedly, but 'Enhanced Interrogation' is positively demonic.
[CNN] Conservative provocateur James O'Keefe is setting his sights on CNN.
O'Keefe said in a telephone interview with CNN on Wednesday that he has "a few hundred hours" of "secretly recorded material" from inside the network. "We're calling it CNN Leaks," he said, drawing inspiration from WikiLeaks' document dumps.
He said "part one" would be published Thursday at about 10 a.m. ET. "This is all legally recorded information," he said, declining to be more specific.
Asked why CNN is one of his targets, he said, "My audience, the American people, are deeply upset at the media." He cited President Trump's critiques of "fake news."
"We think our media needs to be held to account, and CNN is kind of the leader of that. CNN has a very important role as an arbiter of news," he said.
Beyond just CNN, "the media is a huge target of mine right now," O'Keefe said.
"We have a dozen investigations going on, which is one of the reasons I don't have time to go through hundreds of hours of tape," he added.
So the "raw information" will be posted, calling to mind WikiLeaks' dumps of stolen emails from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta last fall.
Update at 10:30 a.m.: The Project Veritas leaks page is here. They're asking for help transcribing the tapes, but there seems to be a glitch in the upload. The twitter feed about it is here.
Update #2 at 1:48: A better Veritas leaks page is here. He has tapes going back to 2009 -- talk about patience!

NY Attorney General calls for subpoenas in 5. 4. 3...
What a difference an election makes -- they would have been raided under the last administration.
[Breitbart] Robert Reich, a professor at UC Berkeley
...UC Berkely deserves him. When was the last time he was right about anything -- a question which hasn't stopped him loudly proclaiming his various anti-Republican opinions as obvious. unvarnished facts to the acclaim of the pseudo-intellectual left....
and former U.S. Secretary of Labor, has insinuated that President Donald Trump incited Monday’s riots in Sweden -- echoing his unproven conspiracy theory just weeks ago that Breitbart News organized violent demonstrations at his university.
"Trump’s lies have consequences," Reich wrote Tuesday afternoon on Twitter. "48 hrs after his comments on Sweden, riots broke out in an immigrant community." His statement refers to President Trump’s comments at a Florida rally this weekend, describing problems in the European country due to heavy migration from Muslim-majority nations:
We’ve got to keep our country safe. You look at what’s happening. We’ve got to keep our country safe. You look at what’s happening in Germany, you look at what’s happening last night in Sweden. Sweden, who would believe this. Sweden. They took in large numbers. They’re having problems like they never thought possible.

Robert Reich Implies Trump Incited Sweden's Migrant Riots
Libthink: Well, if this bat$hit crazy theory isn't true, then perhaps we can settle on something halfway between this crap and the truth. And then round up.

He blamed the Berkley Riot on Breitbart and conservatives. Seems his game plan is to treat liberals like children. Judging by a few folks from my high school that like Reich, its working.
The city council of Richmond, California -- a relatively poor, industrial community on the eastern side of the San Francisco Bay -- voted unanimously on Tuesday evening in favor of a resolution calling for President Donald Trump to be impeached.
The text of the resolution was not immediately available, but the city council agenda listed "a resolution in support of a Congressional investigation regarding the impeachment of President Donald J. Trump."
The basis for Trump’s impeachment, according to local ABC News affiliate KGO, would be the president’s alleged links to his private business holdings. Critics have claimed that these create conflicts of interest, and possibly violate the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause.
However, there is no evidence that Trump has benefited from conflicts of interest, or that he has done anything illegal to justify the "high crimes and misdemeanors" standard for impeachment. The Emoluments Clause argument is also thought by many constitutional scholars and legal analysts to be very weak.
Donald Trump has been something of an obsession for Richmond politicians. In 2015, the mayor blamed Trump for inciting a hate crime against a local mosque, even though the suspect had praised Hillary Clinton in social media.
Richmond is the sixth-poorest large city in the state, and has the highest public employee salary burden, according to a nonpartisan report issued last year. The report documented exorbitant salaries paid to local officials, such as $560,000 in total salary and benefits to the local fire chief.

Ah, my old home town. Competitive - in that it's a constant contender for murder capital of northern California. Poor - in the sense that it's such an urban abyss so frightening that it makes people from Oakland shiver. Blighted - in the sense that there are entire neighborhoods of semi-abandoned crack houses.
Nice to see it's government still has their priorities straight!

Ummm - maybe y'all should have read the Constitution before the vote?
Naaahhhh - what was I thinking?

[TruNews] TruePundit is reporting that Senator John McCain is sharing the contents of President Trump’s classified calls with world leaders.
(VERO BEACH, FLA) According to an analysis of Arizona Senator John McCain’s recent comments by unnamed White House officials, the Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee is repeating information from the classified calls between President Trump and world leaders.
According to TruePundit.com, an investigation of McCain’s recent public statements paired with information from intelligence personnel working with the Trump administration, shows the senator has inside knowledge of the calls which leaked to the media, specifically the conversation between the President and Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
The White House officials who spoke to TP on condition of anonymity claim McCain is "secretly sharing this sensitive information with colleagues and his cabal of friendly mainstream media journalists in a dangerous clandestine campaign to damage Trump’s presidency.
"He has been given transcripts or actually listened to the calls and is sharing what he has heard," an administration insider told TP. "There is no doubt. He is one of the major leaks."
TRUNEWS previously reported that Katie Walsh was one of the high level White House officials leaking information to the media. Katie Walsh served as Senator McCain’s regional finance director for the Midwest during his 2008 presidential bid.
TruePundit gained notoriety during President Trump’s campaign with a story detailing the anonymous testimony of NYPD detectives and prosecutors working on the sexting case against former Congressman Anthony Weiner. The report, which scored a retweet from General Michael Flynn on November 2nd, claimed that evidence of child pedophilia, money laundering, and Clinton Foundation pay to play schemes were discovered on Weiner’s laptop.
In August, TRUNEWS published evidence that McCain had recorded a Tokyo Rose-style propaganda message which was broadcast on North Vietnamese radio in 1969.

Yeah this all may sound a little sketchy with all the unnamed souces and speculation. But this has gotta be true. After all its on TruNews. You know, the guys that broke the story that President Obama had Justice Scalia murdered in celebration of of a Luciferian holiday.
WTF Rantburg...really!?!
[WSJ] WASHINGTON--Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) secretly traveled to northern Syria last weekend to speak with American military officials and Kurdish fighters at the forefront of the push to drive Islamic State out of their de facto capital of Raqqa, according to U.S. officials.
The unusual visit, which officials said was organized with the help of the U.S. military, came as the Trump administration is debating plans for an accelerated military campaign against Islamic State, also known by the acronyms ISIS and ISIL.
Mr. McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, first traveled to rebel-controlled Syria in 2013, when he met with leaders of the Free Syrian Army, the umbrella group supported by America and its allies. This was believed to be his first visit to Syria since then.
U.S. officials familiar with Mr. McCain’s trip said that the senator traveled to Kobani, the Syrian town on the Turkey border controlled by Kurdish forces since 2012.
In a statement, Mr. McCain’s office confirmed that a trip took place, saying the senator "traveled to northern Syria last week to visit U.S. forces deployed there and to discuss the counter-ISIL campaign and ongoing operations to retake Raqqa.

To engage in mutual molestation!

I keep remembering a line from that flaming right wing conservative fascist Daniel Patrick Moynihan(D-NY)
Defining Deviancy Down
Redifining homosexuality as "normal" after the Stonewall riots caused much harm to the civil society. It changed mental illness from something that needed treatment to something that, now, becomes celebrated.
#9
The issue is NOT what is normal. The issue is, are you to be required by the GOVERNMENT to validate other people's life choices? The answer, of course, in a truly free society, is NO. If anyone is uncertain about their own life choices, it IS NOT up to the government to require YOU to validate them. Period. Full Stop.

^ what he said.
It's not about tolerance of a minority - its about forcing submission of the majority.

This is one of those rare occasions where two people from opposite ends of the political spectrum share a common value. Who woulda thunk it would be them both condoning child molestation? Fascinating.

They already have done it with Bannon. He's an anti-semite and hates jewish people because of a allegation from his ex-wife in sealed divorce documents.
