Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) warned of “profoundly serious consequences” if former President Trump wins the upcoming election.
Warren, in an op-ed published Saturday in The New York Times, criticized Trump for his non-answer to a question about repealing the Affordable Care Act during this week’s presidential debate.
“After ducking and weaving, he came up with: ‘I have concepts of a plan.’ Uh, that’s not a plan,” Warren wrote.

5 myths about presidential transitions
Make no mistake, the chaos of our last presidential transition was bad — one impeachment and two criminal cases bad.
And yet, we are now two months away from a transition to either Trump Two or Harris One.

Congress killed pandemic safety nets, and we’re still paying the price
Every September, the Census Bureau unveils crucial data on Americans' poverty, health and income for the previous year.
The latest results underscore a pressing issue: In many key ways, our policymakers are still failing American families, even though they should be well aware by now of effective solutions.

Price transparency is key to reducing health care costs
Health care has emerged as a fault line in this year's election campaign. Vice President Kamala Harris supports expanding the Affordable Care Act, while former President Donald Trump wants to scale it back. Yet there's one health care policy that the Biden-Harris and Trump administrations both supported and can coalesce around again: price transparency.
This bipartisan health care fix is supported by 92 percent of Americans, according to a new poll by Echelon In...
Harris campaign suggests Trump avoiding debate because he doesn’t want to defend ‘toxic positions’
Vice President Harris’s campaign on Friday argued that former President Trump shared a handful of “toxic positions” on the debate stage earlier this week and suggested he’s avoiding another debate so he doesn’t have to defend them.
Harris has called for another debate after her sharp performance on Tuesday night, but Trump said Thursday that he wouldn’t debate Harris again, squashing the idea.

Harris mocks Trump’s debate performance at campaign rally
Vice President Harris on Thursday mocked former President Trump’s debate performance, calling him out at a rally in North Carolina for having “concepts of a plan."
Harris poked fun at Trump for saying that he was interested in trying to repeal ObamaCare again but added that he doesn’t currently have a plan to replace it.
