"This could take down Democrats, too."

An important side note about today's Epstein/Trump revelations.
They show that Todd Blanche's questioning of Maxwell was either (a) completely incompetent; or (b) intentionally crafted not to elicit facts incriminating Trump.
Either way, he is not fit to serve as Deputy Attorney General.

Whenever Ken Starr returns to the news, it's fun to remember that one deputy investigating Bill Clinton (and Vice Foster) was ... Brett Kavanaugh!
Extra fun to remember that GWBush FL Recount team in 2000 included Brett K, J Roberts, AC Barrett.

The sheer number of people Trump pardoned — 1,500+ — and the magnitude of violence many (most?) of them committed means it is statistically likely that a fair number will be revidivists, potentially for more egregious crimes. The pardons should be a top story EVERY DAY

It would absolutely cost more and suck. Even corporate plans, some of which aren't terrible comparatively speaking, will begin to slide because insurance companies will hemorrhage money from the ACA hits.
