Yesterday on his daily "global transmission" Alex Jones was practically giddy at the news. He was all but praying that McCain would die, the sooner the better. Called him a war criminal. Wonder if that's what he meant when Trump told Alex he was doing a great job. It's no surprise that the two men, neither of which served in the military, would have no problem disparaging a true American hero.

Oh, man! That would great. A reporter would ask how the meeting with the Congressional leaders went and Alex would go off on a rant about the Queen of England being the head of a pedophile ring or secret bases on the far side of the moon and the White House press corp would be sitting there slack-jawed.

As of 2014, Congressmen and their staff, if they want to participate in employer healthcare, have to purchase their plan off the Washington D.C. ACA exchange. I'm betting he isn't enrolled.

Yep. They get the Gold plan from the exchange but only have to pay 28% of the premium and the rest is paid by me and you. Seems like they still found a way to bypass the BS.

As the myth busting website Snopes points out, "contrary to popular belief, Congressional members do not receive free health care." Instead, they choose a gold-level Obamacare policy and receive federal subsidies that cover 72 percent of the cost of the premiums.

In short, Snopes reports that members of Congress and staff "pay approximately 28 percent of their annual healthcare premiums through pre-tax payroll deductions." They also have access to "free or low-cost care" through the Office of the Attending Physician as well as "free medical outpatient care at military facilities" in the D.C. area.
