https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pam_Bondi

"In 2018, Bondi joined with 19 other Republican-led states in a lawsuit to overturn the ACA's bans on health insurance companies charging people with pre-existing conditions higher premiums or denying them coverage outright."

Things are not looking good folks. By the way, Pam graduated from Stetson University College of Law, which is located in possibly the worst part of Florida, a state full of bad parts. There is only one bright spot to Pam being chosen:

"In 2016, Bondi gave a speech at the Republican National Convention, during which she led "Lock her up" chants directed at the Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton."

        It’s what happens when the esophageal lining undergoes a change from esophageal lining to stomach lining, to deal with severe acid erosion.

        Next step is esophageal cancer.

      They’d still have to repeal it through Congress, no? Unless the Republicans want to finally kill the filibuster for good, it likely won’t happen.

        I think so, but to be honest this administration is going to aim for the fences. I’d not be surprised if it happens.

    I know downfall of the US empire and all but it’s genuinely disheartening to know that vulnerable people who rely on Obamacare/Medicare/Medicaid are going to find themselves in a very tense period as they go through the administration with the constant worry of “will they or won’t they do something that takes me off of it?”

    Ah yes, I knew replacing Matt Gaetz was a terrible idea. He’s evil but incredibly fucking incompetent and unqualified for the job, democrats should’ve promised to confirm him, that’s way better than this
