Trumpcare could be the gamechanger America is looking for
In last week’s debate, President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump both whiffed on a critical issue sliding under the radar in the race for the White House: the rising costs of healthcare.
It’s not the first such missed opportunity.
Early in his first term, Trump in good faith expressed confidence that a GOP Congress would deliver a “terrific,” “phenomenal,” and “fantastic” alternative to Obamacare. But former House Speaker Paul Ryan a...

Little progress seen in closing racial, ethnic gaps in health care: Report
Racial healthcare disparities persist in every state in the nation despite two decades of attempts to improve health outcomes for minorities, according to a new report released Wednesday.
The report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine found that structural racism and people’s environment have contributed to worse health outcomes for minorities.
Wednesday’s 300-page report comes 21 years after the first from the organization.
GOP plots big Trump agenda despite past missteps
Senate Republicans hoping to win full control of Congress and the White House are crafting an ambitious legislative package that would go far beyond extending former President Trump's tax cuts.
The legislation, being cobbled together for budget reconciliation rules that would sidestep a Senate filibuster, would need to win the support of most or all elected Republicans to become law. That could be a difficult prospect, especially in a narrow majority.
Both part...

Why be Trump’s running mate?
Over the last year, stories have run about how Gov. Doug Burgum, Sen. Tim Scott, Sen. J.D. Vance, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and Sen. Tom Cotton, among others, "leads the pack for Trump veep pick." A recent headline declared the likeliest candidate now is Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida.
No one knows for sure, of course; Donald Trump said on Saturday that he has made his mind up, but he says a lot of things. The presumptive Republican nominee has said repeatedly that the i...
Biden’s immigrant amnesty scheme will cost taxpayers billions
President Joe Biden just announced his latest executive action to gain votes. He plans to allow certain undocumented immigrants who have been in the U.S. for at least 10 years and married to a U.S. citizen to receive temporary legal status, which will permit them to legally work. While there are economic benefits to allowing them to work legally, there are also costs. And one of those costs will be the expansion of Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) subsidies for health ...
Trump added twice as much to the national debt as Biden: Analysis
The fiscal policies of the Trump administration added twice the amount to the national deficit as have President Biden’s, a new analysis has found.
Trump's administration borrowed $8.4 trillion during the former president's time in office, while Biden has borrowed $4.3 trillion, according to an analysis by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB), a Washington think tank.
Ignoring the pandemic relief measures enacted by both presidents, the proportion of...
Affordable health care is on the ballot in November
“Low Insulin pricing was gotten for millions of Americans by me,” Donald Trump recently declared on Truth Social, his social media platform. And “Crooked” Joe Biden “had NOTHING to do with it.”
Trump’s claim is apparently based on his announcement in 2020 that some, but not all, pharmaceutical companies had agreed to cap out-of-pocket costs for insulin — which more than seven million Americans need to manage their diabetes — at $35 per month for individuals enrolled in Medicar...
