Cspan airing the Senate hearing for Budget on Health and Human Services.

Dems are trying to say Trump wants to cut Medicare. There are no cuts to the beneficiaries just to the administration side.

Sen. Portman asking about hospice care funding. Trump wants to provide punishments to "bad actors" in the hospice field. This is good. They want to certified hospice agencies.

Sen Stabenow. Making a political talking point about Medicare🙄🙄🙄

These hearings a fun. The gop ask questions about policy and dig down into the details, the Dems by and large launch stupid political talking points.

It's like night and day. One sane party and the other insane political hacks. If more people watched these they wouldn't vote D

Sec. Azar is very good. He knows his stuff.

Sen. Carper (D) talking about bill to lower drug prices. Does the president support the bill?

A: yes. Working with Congess to pass bi partisanship bill.

This is not price control. It targets the incentives that drive price increase.

Sen. Grassley says it takes subsidy away

...that promote drug companies to raise prices. In other words it's government policies in place now that give incentives to drug companies to constantly raise prices. Imagine that😏😏😏

Sen. Carper asking about Obamacare being struck down.l in courts.

A: Pres will not sign a law that replaced Obamacare without it protecting preexisting conditions.

Sen. Mendez what's the admin view on Obamacare.

A: the mandate is unconstitutional and thus the entire think is.

Sen menendz launchs a political speech on Obamacare why are we waiting for courts ..🙄🙄🙄

Can't watch this anymore. Basically just wanted to point out the difference between the questions the GOP ask and the political stunts the Dems play.
