I agree with you that this is really stupid. Again, I think we need to re-consider the amount of autonomy Presidents apparently have with pardons if Joe’s blanket pardon is indeed legal, which seems to be the legal consensus.

Because they are just taking the only line of attack that can upend the nomination.
Suprirse! Many successful men have some hazy history with women and lots of it is done after the fact when women think they were raped (really just feeling guilty). IT doesn't matter who, or how many its happening to, it just matters that its happening and its completely bull****. This also ignores its completely irrelevant to the job that needs to be done.
Look, I’m not even trying to sell you on a Believe All Women argument, but this is really ****ing silly. “It’s a conspiracy because guys like Gaetz and Hegseth are known for their sexual antics” isn’t the rebuttal you think it is. My question isn’t why this wouldn’t effectively end his candidacy, it’s why you think so many other powerful men aren’t having their nominations sunk similarly. Why am I not hearing about how Marco Rubio is a sex monster? And why then is it *more* likely to you that the claims specifically about Gaetz and Hegseth are false just because it’s seen as a bigger scandal?

"Everything that's good should be free!!!"
What does it matter if it isn't? I think the establishment is clearly nervous about guys like Gaetz/Hegseth upsetting hte apple card and have spent millions doing reserach on their past.
Again - It has exactly 0 impact on whether or not they can do the job or not.
These men did not commit crimes. All that exists are unsavory salacious allegations that people run with in order to torpedo the nomination.
The fact that it even matters is a sad state of affairs of our country.
I’d frankly settle for a happy medium where at least when I’m paying for insurance that they aren’t dictating the terms of my care. This feels less like a specific situation where we need to replace the system and more where we just need strong consumer protections from insurance ****ery.

I don't know the specifics of the headline you posted but trust me I'm not one to defend our current health insurance system. Its a system that has been completely infected by big government socialized intervention that has given us the worst of both worlds
But it cracks me up how much of a socialist thethe is. I'd imagine he wouldn't trade our healthcare system for Canada, where it's "paid for" but who knows he back to his ignoring me bc I committed blasphemy
I’d certainly argue it does matter to at least some extent in any major government role given the questions it potentially raises regarding decision-making and just the amount they’re hiding even from their spouses, but I can see your point generally. However, this isn’t the Department of the Interior or some ****, these are the people in charge of our federal law enforcement or military. Even if character and integrity are basically myths in Washington, I think it’s more than reasonable to consider whether or not the person in charge of those particular parts of our government is a sexual pest.
SO you think a sexual past, with no indications that the same type of alleged activities are currently taking place, matters for someone?
This is just a ridiculous standard to take which basically boils down to believe all women regardless of the facts and circumstances of each sitution.
Hegseth sexual history has literally zero to do with his ability to ensure the countries military is ready for anything that may come up in the future and to serve the country well. Thinking otherwise is just silly talk.
Looks to me that insurance ocmpanies saw that spend related to anestiology was increasing at rates they were uncomfortable with and determined that procedures are going way over time length which therefore required more anestiology spend.
Not sure how releavnt this might be to any of our previous histories.
On Hegseth?
A married women went into Hegesths hotel room while her husband and kids were sleeping in another room in the hotel. Then a few days later she said she was raped most likelyi to defend herself against her husband who was planning on divorcing her as a result.
I'm fairly certain this is the story that I've read but would be happy to see if any other facts exists.

I've actually seen that play out in person in college. Woman tried to claim a virgin raped her.
And all too often flock to good looking/powerful men. Its not all too hard to look into someones past like that and find a women who CLAIMS that she was raped.
I have no experience with hospital billing but if the hospitals believe that some type of spend will not be reimbuse they will restrict those services in the future. I don't think that is where we want to go.
Ultimately, it has to be sorted out at the provider level as you said but from a cost perspective. Why are procedures going over? How much of the insurance reimbrusement is actually going to true life saving procedures and not administrative bloat.
We need a complete overhaul of our medical care system so that one can be created to serve all Americans. First step in that is to kick out all illegals to determine just how much spend exists. Then we can figure ouit what options are available.
Then of course MSM found 10 ANONOMOUS sources to say Heseth was an alcoholic while on set while almost 20 ON THE RECORD souces says thats complete bull****.
Anyone that thinks any of this is real or would impact Hegseths ability to do the job is just a partisan that doesn't want Trump to create a cabinet the way he earned.
