Trump is killing the subsidies that kept Medicare Part D drug prices down for seniors. Mehmet Oz claims your costs will drop. That’s a lie. It’s a shove into privatized Medicare Advantage, and corrupt Republicans built that ramp on purpose. #RepublicanMedicareCuts
If you aren't angry then you aren't paying attention.
TAPPER: The story says when you were picked up for drunk driving, you have ecstasy in your system. When is last time you used illegal drugs? MILLER: I mean, the last time -- I don't know, several years ago? TAPPER: Two? 20? MILLER: This is testosterone replacement theory. Secretary Hegseth ...
