Biden, Obama team up for ObamaCare promotion after Trump threats

North Carolina Medicaid expansion makes nearly 600K now eligible for coverage
Hundreds of thousands of people in North Carolina are eligible for Medicaid benefits beginning Friday, almost a decade after ObamaCare let states expand eligibility.
Advocates say North Carolina's expansion will give much-needed aid to adults who previously earned too much to be eligible for Medicaid but not enough to benefit from federal subsidies to help them afford private health insurance.
Medicaid coverage includes doctor visits, check-ups, eme...

Biden campaign gets much-needed jolt amid Trump’s ObamaCare threats
President Biden’s campaign was given a much-needed shot in the arm this week from former President Trump’s repeated threats against ObamaCare.
Trump handed Democrats a gift when he suddenly revived threats to replace the 13-year-old Affordable Care Act if elected president, giving the Biden campaign a week’s worth of material as it shifts to attack the GOP front-runner directly.
When Trump posted on his social media platform that he was “seriously looking...
