Trump backs repealing Obamacare now replacing it later

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Donald Trump barged into Senate Republicans' delicate health care negotiations Friday, declaring that if lawmakers can't reach a deal they should simply repeal "Obamacare" right away and then replace it later on. Trump's tweet revives an approach that GOP leaders and the president himself considered but dismissed months ago as impractical and politically unwise. And it's likely to further complicate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's task as he struggles to bridge the divide between GOP moderates and conservatives as senators leave Washington for the Fourth of July break without having voted on a health care bill as planned. "If Republican Senators are unable to pass what they are working on now, they should immediately REPEAL, and then REPLACE at a later date!" Trump wrote. President Donald Trump speaks at the Department of Energy in Washington, Thursday, June 29, 2017. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh) The president sent his early-morning tweet shortly after Nebraska Republican Sen. Ben Sasse appeared on Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends" to talk about a letter he had sent to Trump making that exact suggestion: a vote on repealing former President Barack [http://www.broowaha.com/search/Obama%27s%20health Obama's health] law followed by a new effort at a working out a replacement. Trump is a known "Fox & Friends" viewer, but Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky also claimed credit for recommending the tactic to the president in a conversation earlier in the week. "Sen. Rand Paul suggested this very idea to the president," said Paul spokesman Sergio [http://www.qtm.ind.br/mediawiki/index.php?title=Usu%C3%A1rio:CandidaHargreave mua đệm lò xo] Gor. "The senator fully agrees that we must immediately repeal Obamacare and then work on replacing it right away." Either way, Trump's suggestion has the potential to harden divisions within the GOP as conservatives like Paul and Sasse complain that McConnell's bill does not go far enough in repealing Obama's health care law while moderates criticize it as overly harsh in kicking people off insurance roles, shrinking the Medicaid safety net and increasing premiums for older Americans. McConnell told reporters after an event Friday in his home state of Kentucky that the health care bill remains challenging but "we are going to stick with that path." "It's not easy making American great again, is it?" McConnell said. McConnell has been trying to strike deals with members of both factions in order to finalize a rewritten bill lawmakers can vote on when they return to the Capitol the second week of July. Even before Trump weighed in, though, it wasn't clear how far he was getting, and Trump's tweet did not appear to suggest a lot of White House confidence in the outcome. "McConnell's trying to achieve a 50-vote Venn diagram between some very competing factions," said Rodney Whitlock, a veteran health policy expert who worked as a Senate GOP aide during passage of the Democrats' Affordable Care Act. "So what the president tweeted takes one side of that Venn diagram and pushes it further away, and actually puts on the table an option that will probably drive that group away from seeking compromise with the other side of the Venn diagram." A McConnell spokesman declined to comment on Trump's tweet. Even before Trump was inaugurated in January, Republicans had debated and ultimately discarded the idea of repealing Obamacare before replacing it, concluding that both must happen simultaneously. Doing otherwise would invite accusations that Republicans were simply tossing people off coverage and would roil insurance markets by raising the question of whether, when and how Congress might replace Obama's law once it was gone. The idea also would leave unresolved the quandary lawmakers are struggling with now, about how to replace Obama's system of online insurance markets, tax subsidies and an expanded Medicaid with something that could get enough Republican votes to pass Congress. House Republicans barely passed their version of an Obamacare replacement bill in May, and the task is proving even tougher in the Senate, where McConnell has almost no margin for [https://demxinh.vn/category/chan-ga-goi/chan-ga-goi-canada/ chan ga goi canada ha noi] error. Moderates were spooked as the week began with a Congressional Budget chan ga goi ames ha noi, [https://demxinh.vn/category/chan-ga-goi/chan-ga-goi-ames/ demxinh.vn], Office finding that McConnell's draft bill would result in 22 million people losing insurance over the next decade, only 1 million fewer than under the House-passed legislation which Trump privately told senators was "mean." But conservatives continue to insist that the bill must go further than just repealing some of the mandates and taxes in Obama's law. "It's distressing to see so many Republicans who've lied about their commitment to repeal," Ken Cuccinelli, president of the Senate Conservatives Fund, said in a conference call on Friday. Underscoring the fissures within the GOP, conservative group leaders on the conference call welcomed Trump's [https://demxinh.vn/category/dem-lo-xo/ mua đệm lò xo] suggestion but said it didn't go far enough because it could open the door to a subsequent bipartisan compromise to replace Obama's law. At the same time, a key House Republican, Rep. Kevin Brady who chairs the Ways and Means Committee, rejected Trump's suggestion, contending that it "doesn't achieve what President Trump set out to do." "I really think the Senate's approach - certainly in the House - of not simply repealing but to start to put into place the elements that can make health care affordable, that's what the president set out to do," Brady said in an interview on C-SPAN's "Newsmakers" program.

Hong Kong s new leader Carrie Lam: profile

Hong Kong's new Chief Executive Carrie Lam gives a speech after being sworn in as the [http://www.paramuspost.com/search.php?query=territory%27s&type=all&mode=search&results=25 territory's] new leader, at the Convention and Exhibition Centre, on July 1, 2017 Carrie Lam's swearing-in as Hong Kong's new leader on Saturday marks the culmination of the lifelong civil servant's career as she inherits a divided city fearful of China's encroaching influence. Lam, 59, was widely seen as Beijing's preferred candidate when she was elected in March by a mainly pro-China committee representing special interest groups, from real estate and agriculture to teaching and medicine, as well as lawmakers. But critics have said she will only further polarise a society riven by mass protests three years ago against Beijing's interference in the affairs of the semi-autonomous city and still divided between those loyal to China and those concerned about its growing influence. Before landing the top job, Lam served as deputy to her highly unpopular predecessor Leung Chun-ying, slammed as a puppet of Beijing. Appointed by Leung as chief secretary in 2012, the new leader promoted a Beijing-backed political reform package rejected as "fake democracy" by opponents. Graphic on how Hong Kong picked incoming leader Carrie Lam with 777 votes from its Election Committee Bespectacled Lam -- whose Cantonese name is Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor -- địa chỉ mua [https://demxinh.vn/category/chan-ga-goi/chan-ga-goi-everhome/ chăn ga gối everhome] ga gối dreamland is nicknamed "lai-ma" or "wet-nurse" by opponents in a jibe over what they say was fawning loyalty towards her former boss. A mother of two adult sons, Lam is known as a tough and effective enforcer. In 2007, she personally faced off with protesters over the demolition of a historic pier built during Hong Kong's colonial days under British rule. The landmark was ultimately destroyed. At the height of the mass street protests in 2014 -- known as the "Umbrella Movement" -- she met with student representatives [https://demxinh.vn/category/chan-ga-goi/chan-ga-goi-everon/ mua chăn ga gối everon] in a televised meeting about the political reform dispute. Ultimately activists failed to win concessions on democratic reform, including fully free leadership elections. Lam was an activist herself during university in the 1970s, with one photo published in the South China Morning Post showing her marching in protest against the expulsion of four "leftist" students. She came from humble origins, growing up in a modest family of five children in the crowded district of Wanchai. But recent gaffes have fanned criticism that Lam -- who is usually elegantly dressed and sports a short coiffed hairstyle -- is out of touch with ordinary people. She appeared unfamiliar with how to use the city's ubiquitous "Octopus" travel card to get into the subway platform. She was [http://bienen.wiki/index.php/U.S._warns_businesses_of_hacking_campaign_against_nuclear_energy... mua chăn ga gối everon] also mocked for a lack of common sense after an anecdote related to reporters -- about a late-night hunt for toilet paper -- revealed she didn't know where to buy essentials in a city packed with convenience stores. In an interview last month with Chinese state news agency Xinhua, Lam said the government must imbue the young generation with a sense of Chinese national identity. The government will "strictly enforce the law" against any acts advocating Hong Kong independence, she told Xinhua.

"His behavior was unacceptable and not reflective of 500�s culture and values," she said. "I sincerely apologize for the choices he made and the pain and stress they�ve caused people." McClure will assume a limited role at the firm and is attending counseling, Tsai said. McClure on Friday said in a text message to Reuters that he and Tsai "are still on good terms" and "she has my full support." The firm made the change public on Friday following a report by the New York Times that named McClure, along with well-known investor Chris Sacca, as perpetrators of sexual harassment toward women who were applying for jobs or seeking fundraising. The report said McClure was no longer in charge of day-to-day operations. Sarah Kunst, founder and chief executive of fitness startup Proday, told the New York Times that McClure had sent her an inappropriate Facebook message after she discussed a potential mua đệm lò xo dunlopillo ở hà nội job at 500 Startups. "Before the New York Times article, Dave had already been demoted because of his harassment of women, however no one outside of 500 Startups had been made aware of this fact," Kunst told Reuters on Friday. "Women did not know to avoid him. The lack of disclosure is part of the problem. Women don't know who is a bad actor when the funds cover it up." McClure referred a request for comment on Kunst's statement and other questions to a spokeswoman, who declined to comment beyond the blog post. 500 Startups invests in early-stage startups around the world and offers an accelerator program for entrepreneurs. Its investments include the ride-hailing company Grab and personal finance company Credit Karma. McClure is well known throughout the tech industry because of his contrarian attitudes, [https://demxinh.vn/category/chan-ga-goi/dreamland-chan-ga-goi/ mua chan ga goi dreamland] which include criticizing venture capitalists, his political statements and his frequent public appearances.

Sacca, who gained prominence with early investments in Twitter and Uber, on Thursday published a blog post apologizing for his behavior. "I now understand I personally contributed to the problem," Sacca said. He had announced in April that he was retiring from his VC firm, Lowercase Capital. Several women spoke to the New York Times after news site The Information published a report last week detailing inappropriate behavior toward women by investor Justin Caldbeck of Binary Capital. He has since resigned and apologized publicly. In February, former Uber engineer Susan Fowler wrote a blog post detailing the company's culture of sexual harassment, which prompted a months-long investigation that culminated with the resignation of chief executive Travis Kalanick. The events have brought new focus to what many in the industry say is a long-standing culture of entrenched sexual harassment and discrimination that has made it difficult for women and racial minorities to raise funds and assume leadership positions.

Gunman opens fire on New York hospital killing doctor

A man reacts outside the Bronx-Lebanon Hospital as police respond to an active shooter New York's Bronx borough A man opened fire in a busy New York hospital on Friday afternoon, killing a female doctor and wounding six other people before turning his weapon on himself, according to officials. The shooter was himself a doctor and former employee of the hospital, according to Mayor Bill de Blasio and police chief James [https://demxinh.vn mua chan ga goi dem o ha noi]'Neill, who ruled out a connection to terrorism. He entered the [http://Www.Reddit.com/r/howto/search?q=building building] in a white coat with an automatic weapon concealed under his shirt, officials said. The incident occurred at the 1000-bed Bronx-Lebanon hospital just before 3 pm (1900 GMT) as many patients were receiving consultations. Police quickly cordoned off the area and encircled the hospital, placing officers on rooftops as they conducted a floor-by-floor search for the assailant. The shooter, whose identity has not been officially disclosed, was eventually found dead in a pool of blood on the 17th floor of the building after apparently killing himself, according to O'Neill. The police chief added that the gunman apparently attempted "to set himself on fire" before activating the institution's fire alarm system. The dead doctor, a woman whose identity has also not yet been disclosed, was found nearby. The mayor said some doctors were "fighting for their lives right now," without disclosing how many physicians were among the wounded. Speaking at a press briefing, De Blasio said: "Thank God this is not an act of terrorism. It is an isolated incident." Several witnesses spoke of the panic that spread during the attack. NYC mayor Bill de Blasio speaks to journalists outside the Bronx-Lebanon Hospital following a shooting incident that left one doctor dead Garry Trimbie told AFP he got a phone call from his fiancee, a hospital employee, at around 3:15 pm. "She was crying, she said somebody started shooting and then the employees ran and barricaded themselves in the room," he said. - My turn - A [http://www.ajaxtime.com/?s=pregnant%20woman pregnant woman] who was undergoing a consultation on the 14th floor praised the way staff responded.

They were in control," Tamara told AFP, [https://demxinh.vn/category/dem-lo-xo/dem-lo-xo-canada/ mua đệm lò xo canada ở hà nội] giving her first name only. "I learned a long time ago: when you're pregnant, never panic," she added. Nurse Patricia Phipps said the shooting did not come as a shock given the borough it took place in, The Bronx, which is known for its high crime-rate. She said: "The neighborhood is sketchy. So you're not surprised sometimes these things happen when you work at hospitals like this. Things happen. That's just living in New York. I just said to myself: it's my turn." The latest incident could also re-ignite debate over gun control laws in the United States, which sees more mass shootings than any other country. Mayor De Blasio briefly touched on the topic in his press briefing, calling the attack "something we have seen around the country". "Every time these things happen, it's another reminder that more needs to be done for those people that have access to these weapons...we can't continue not to do something about it," state legislator Marcos Crespo told news channel New York 1. The last mass shooting occurred on June 14 near Washington DC when a man opened fire on a baseball team comprised of Republican congressmen, wounding four people including the chamber's third most senior member, Steve Scalise. The gunman, James Hodgkinson, was shot dead by police.
