U.S. Supreme Court Takes Up Insurers' $12 Billion Obamacare Dispute

Description

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday agreed to decide whether the federal government must pay insurers $12 billion under an Obamacare program. The justices will hear an appeal by a group of insurers of a lower court ruling that Congress had suspended the government’s obligation to make the payments. The insurers have argued that the ruling would allow the government to pull a “bait-and-switch” and withhold money they were promised. Insurers including Moda Health Plan have said the government was supposed to help them recover from early losses they suffered after the passage of the 2010 Affordable Care Act.

Trump Takes Aim At 'Weak,' 'Totally Incompetent' Supreme Court

President Donald Trump on Saturday aimed a large dose of spleen at the US Supreme Court. According to Business Insider, Trump's latest outburst stems from his loss to now President-elect Joe Biden in the 2020 election. Trump and his campaign's legal team have so far lost all attempts made at reversing the election result. Trump said he had 'PROOF' of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, but did not provide any such evidence. During his tenure, Trump successfully nominated three justices to the court: Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett in 2020. But now, he counts them among the rest of the Supreme Court justices as 'totally incompetent' and 'weak.'
