Firing Line with Margaret Hoover
@firinglineshow
Health care policy expert Lanhee Chen proposes Individual Health Accounts, but he recognizes “it's not for everybody at this point.” “Health savings accounts as they exist now are predominantly a vehicle for middle, upper-middle income, higher income folks to save for their health care expenses.”

"Unlike many of the other great men of history--you know, your Napoleon or your Caesars or your great conquerors--he uses his ambition, his power to bind a nation together, to heal." @ryan-holiday.bsky.social reflects on the Stoic virtues of Abraham Lincoln. Apple: bit.ly/4uKTU8q
Yuval Levin, a senior fellow at AEI, says Congress has become "the most dysfunctional" branch of our government. "Congress is sitting on the sidelines watching it happen and functioning as a kind of commentariat rather than as the chief actor in the system."
"The Iranian regime survived the worst-case scenario." Tamir Hayman of the Institute for National Security Studies explains why a post-war Iran led by Mojtaba Khamenei with an intact nuclear weapons program could present a "dangerous combination" for the U.S. and Israel.
"Congress has come to see itself as a secondary player in a fundamentally presidential drama, so that the question they always face in their own minds is a yes or no question about the president…," says Yuval Levin. "They have a real job to do."
"Dispatches from Grief" author Danielle Crittenden acknowledges she has learned something from suffering, but she rejects the "happiness hucksters" who insist grief is a gift. "It does make you, I think, a bigger and better person. But as a gift, I would happily return it."
"The person who's lost this child just learns to go quiet because they can't express what they're really going through." Danielle Crittenden--whose daughter Miranda died at age 32--says she wrote "Dispatches from Grief" to help others understand the pain experienced by parents who suffer that loss.
Fmr. Defense Sec. Jim Mattis and Ryan Holiday discuss the value of understanding history in the military. “The idea of learning by trial and error is both arrogant and reckless,” says Holiday. “We turn to the past because the people in the past lived through situations like we're in right now.”
“Legislators see themselves first and foremost as team players for their parties, not as members of the first branch,” says AEI’s Philip Wallach. Republicans have “made it quite clear that they don't see their job as placing limits on the president,” adds @oonahathaway.bsky.social.
Voters should put the onus on members of Congress to reassert their power, says Philip Wallach. "I think we as citizens should all remember that these legislators can make this institution what they decide for it to be."
What would happen if a president chose to defy a ruling by the #SupremeCourt? "Our democracy and our Constitution would be in danger,” Justice Anthony Kennedy told Margaret Hoover last fall.

On this day in my crochet (and college) history, 1-23 years ago! At the end, I have an assorted group of college memories. At the 2 minute mark are pics of me on stage in the production that this recording is from. I played Cain. That’s me getting murdered by Abel. So that’s me singing Scarlatti.
When I arrived at the shelter today, I saw Petra lying in the middle of the enclosure, looking so sad and unhappy... Then I noticed blood at the entrance of her house. With great effort, we managed to take her and rushed to the hospital, only to be shocked by what we discovered.

Das Video ist nicht besonders gut, ist von einer billigen Überwachungskamera gezoomt. Aber eines kommt deutlich rüber: Ja, das Futterhäuschen und dessen Mechanik hat das Hörnchen sofort durchschaut. Aber… ob es eine gute Idee war, das vor dem Schlafzimmerfenster aufzuhängen? 😂😂😂 (Sound an… 🔊)
