[Kaze]

Healthcare should not be a privilege. It should be basic human right.

[hideem]

Scott Jennings is the actual worst. He has no clue what people are dealing with relative to healthcare costs.

[charliecarlson]

Then go after the insurance companies. Leave poor people alone!!!

[miltonsagen]

Boehner once said that in his 25 years in congress republicans never introduced a single bill on health care. The only thing I’ve seen them do is tried to repeal any health care bills. Scott Jennings is an ass.

[mw]

Speaker Mike needs to walk all the way back home and get out of politics. People are sick of that man. He’s just a mouthpiece for anybody else except the truth. What a weasel.

[medusagorgon]

They are willing to take away vital healthcare support for millions just to spite their Democratic colleagues. Does that make any sense to anyone?!!! Several hundred thousand Americans are still alive today only be the grace of the Affordable Care Act, and that is no exaggeration.

[RanchoCoral]

Mike Johnson is such a danger to Democracy and decency

[etiennee]

Harris campaign should be running an ad of speaker Mike Johnson promising no more Obama Care

[DonaldMcFelon]

To Hell with Johnson. "Obamacare" is the only healthcare I have the ability to possess currently. $600/mo. paid for, free, by Obama. I ain't complaining.

[RahRan]

Anderson you said you wouldn't have bad people on your show SCOTT JENNINGS is a bad person!

[ninaduncan]

Don’t back track now!!! We got kids 18-25 that need their healthcare show us who you are Johnson

[leahd]

The knots that Scott has to tie himself in to sanespeak for MAGA

[Tavat]

He needs to be removed from the House in January 2025.

[marybardmess]

It's in Project 2025. They even wrote it down.

[carolynbaker]

He already tried , Never trust any of them Never

[chrissnape]

He said no more Obamah care. If he didnt want to terminate it, he would have said so. Being a Republican and getting your info from a fellow republican is like saying my cel mate knows a guy on block D says. Cmon man

[elizabethhargrove]

Everyone in America heard the tape...his words. We heard him, why we acting like we didn't.

[gregorykeane]

Speaker Johnson makes bad choices. We need a House speaker who is honest, makes good choices, and works on behalf of the American people.

[VoodooCosmonaut]

McConnell was right. Once the ACA because a part of American's lives, the government would be hard pressed to ever get rid of it. Just like Social Security, people count on ACA. And thank god we have it.

[omaralaa]

The worst speaker of the house in the United States history
