Biden Administration Finalizes Rule To Allow 'Dreamers' To Enroll In 'Obamacare'

 The Biden administration announced on May 3 that it had finalized a directive to expand the Affordable Care Act, also known as "Obamacare," to thousands of illegal immigrants who were brought to the United States as children.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services estimates that "This rule could lead to 100,000 previously uninsured DACA recipients enrolling in health care through Marketplaces or a BHP ," the Department of Health and Human Services said in a statement.

The move took longer than promised and fell short of President Joe Biden's initial proposal to allow those illegal immigrants access to Medicaid, which provides free or low-cost health care coverage to the nation's lowest-income people.

"Today, my Administration is expanding affordable, quality health care coverage to Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients," President Biden said in a statement on May 3.

"I'm proud of the contributions of Dreamers to our country and committed to providing Dreamers the support they need to succeed," President Biden said.

"Making Dreamers eligible to enroll in coverage will improve their health and well-being and strengthen the health and well-being of our nation and our economy." The Biden administration modified the definition of "Lawfully present," which is used to determine eligibility for coverage so that DACA participants can legally enroll on the marketplace exchange.

Last year, President Biden also unveiled a regulation aimed at fending off legal challenges to DACA; President Trump moved to end the policy, and it has bounced back and forth in federal court.

In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
