The new Governor of North Carolina applied for a waiver to impose Medicaid expansion in his state, despite the fact there are state laws prohibiting it unless enacted by the legislature. The scofflaws in Washington promised quick action on the request. So here we have yet another pen-and-a-phone executive overreach and more breaches of the rule of law under Obamacare. It wasn’t enough that this atrocity of a law was rammed down our throats without a single Republican vote or that President Obama unilaterally amended it a couple dozen times. The authoritarian Left never learns and that’s why we must fight them. The week’s top tweets:
