Also earlier this morning the first plane carrying the remains of some of the 298 victims left the airport in ukraine for the nght lands.

Why did you chows to play uptown girl . She is an uptown girl. Hello. Its all about her. It is a tribute to Christie Brinkley and they arent married anymore. A big scare for obamacare. Yesterday the d. C. Court of appeals, the Second Highest Court in the land, said the subsidies are illegal in 36 states. The law as written said that credits, these subsidies can only flow through, quote, an exchange established by the state. A bunch of states didnt establish them, so the federal government came in. And in 2012 the i. R. S. Pumped out a rule giving subsidies to everybody, and thats what prompted this lawsuit. Simultaneously the white house felt a little lucky because the Fourth Circuit in virginia said theyre legal. Now it could be headed to the Supreme Court. In the meantime the white house said it is going to continue handing out billions of taxpayer dollars in the subsidies until this gets figured out and works its way up the court system. Could be years. Three judges decided this. It seems to be a major blow when it comes to obamacare and the money thats being handed out, in this case determined here in these three courts. They said it is illegal. A constitutional scholar said this is a bloody mess. It will be a bloody mess. The problem is the president , it was found by the d. C. Circuit, to have exceeded his authority, to have violated again the
separation of powers. But m this case that violation led to the commitment of hundreds of billions of dollars in the past, future years. And that is a serious problem. I dont see how the a. C. A. Can survive without this system, at least in the form it was originally designed to have. Does that mean it will collapse . It would collapse unless congress would be willing to make massive changes and massive subsidies to back those up. The panel found the president spent billions in taxpayer dollars he had no authority to spend, subjected millions of employers and individuals to mandates he had no authority to impose. Game on at the highest level. Here we go again. And all indications are they knew all along how much in jeopardy this ruling would be. Its not so much the law that passed. Its the one that kept changing. If it goes back to the original form, can anyone afford obamacare without the subsidies . That will be one of the keys. The other thing weve got to think about too is when everyone signed up, the 5. 4 Million People who signed up for obamacare, did they do it the right way . Was anyone verified the information they were giving. The g. A. O. Wondered that and set up a sting operation. The Government Accountability office made up fake applications, 12 on phone or online, 6 in person, all completely false. Nothing true income, counterfeit documentation false. 11 out of 12 of them, of these fake applications got through. They actually got government Subsidized Health insurance. They got through the verification process and their bogus beneficiaries are still covered. Thats the extraordinary thing. It begs the question, so this was just a controlled situation where 11 of the 12 failed and the one had a
failed, the one that failed, the one they noted simply because that person did not cough up a Social Security number. How many people have applied for obamacare and gotten subsidies even though they completely perhaps misrepresented their income or lied about their situation . Right now we dont know because right now nobody is looking into it. The president doesnt have time because hes flying back and forth raising cash for democrats. Its exhausting. Exactly. But there is a critique that he is not paying enough attention to whats going on in the world, hes not doing the right thing. Hes forcing his attention on fundraising, causing the taxpayers 3 million for a recent trip alone. Josh earnest at the white house, press secretary, said he can focus on a couple of things at the same time. The president , like most professionals, has the capability to deal with more than one priority at a time, particularly somebody who has the trappings of
the presidency alongside him. He has his own airplane, dedicated phone lines, senior advisors who will be accompanying him every step of the way. Then he brought up out of the five work days hes spending three of them on funding. Hes got the phone and the pen. He was in seattle last night and they were talking about cynicism, and the president said i dont really watch much of the news because i generally already know what theyre talking about. Wait a minute, i dont really watch much of the news because i know what theyre already talking about . How many times have we heard the president say i learned about this situation by watching the news. A lot of people are going which way is it, mr. President . You cant have it both ways. If he didnt watch the news, he probably doesnt know that tony dungee, although hes not coaching anymore, hes a spofts
sportscaster got himself into controversy when he answered the question, would you have taken michael sam, the defensive player who came out and say, by the way, i am quote, he said, quote, tony dungee did, i wouldnt have taken him not because i dont think michael sam shouldnt have a chance to play. I dont want to deal with all that. Hes saying when you have somebody in a locker room thats different it becomes a major story. If you want to look at an example look at tim tebow. Tim tebow was bigger than the sport for awhile. Is there x factor going to take away from whats going on on the field. Keep in mind, tony dungee didnt say i wouldnt sign him because hes gay. He said he would be a distraction. There are many players like tim tebow who in the mind
of many coaches thought this guy is going to take away from the team aspect here. Listen to this. If you are in a professional sports locker room and you happen to be gay, there are people in an nfl locker room or any kind of locker room for a professional sports team, there are people who are going to have a problem with it. If somebody is sitting there in a locker room and theyre minding their own business but it is just not something they agree with, they shouldnt be excoriated either. You have the right to feel what you feel so long as youre not trying to inflict any kind of harm figuratively or literally upon another human being. Its that simple. So tony dungee, whether it is from a religious perspective or whether it is just taking his quote verbatim, he happens to be right. But he is getting
slammed. Hes getting abused in the media. It is a fact that this story is a big deal in the media. Michael sam, did he make it a big deal . Who knows . Did tony dungee make it a big deal . It is a big deal because the media latched on to this earlier on. The twitter verse is aflame and theyre calling tony dungee every imaginable word and name, but heres the thepg. He has the right to express his opinion. In his have been a distraction . To tony dungee, yes. To other people . Maybe not. But they werent asked. On twitter theyre saying hes a hypocrite. Michael vick, he completely repackaged himself. Tonydunjihad tony
dunjihad the chance to say no. There is no right or wrong answer. We respect your opinion unlike the rest of the media. Well put your opinion up there. Hopefully youll get on facebook and twitter and well read them. Coming up straight ahead, a plan to fix the border crisis. Instead of giving aid to the illegals home countries, cut them off.

Not everything, until you hit your cash back limit. Quicksilver can earn you unlimited 1. 5 cash back on everything you could possibly imagine. Say it with me everything. One more time, everything and with that in mind. Whats in your wallet . Welcome back. This week president obama will mote with leaders from Central America to address the border crisis. Even though u. S. Taxpayers are footing the bill for children fleeing those countries, their leaders are still asking for more
money. Our next guest says the solution to this crisis is to cut off those countries bit by bit. Maryland congressman Michael Burgess joins us now. Good morning, sir. Thank you for being with us this morning. Thanks for having me on. I wouldnt say its cutting them off. It is billing them for the services were providing for their citizens. I estimated, i saw a report in the papers, it was 500 per child per day. Each child is staying about 34 days in a facility. The round number comes out to about 15,000, and that seemed like a reasonable amount to bill back to the president s of those countries for taking care of their children. Congressman, there you are in texas, and the reaction by many upon hearing this will say thats harsh, thats heartless. You want to know harsh . Harsh is putting an 8yearold on top of a Freight Train and sending him across mexico. Thats harsh. Harsh is taking children to the middle of the rio
grande, leaving them and calling it a highwater rescue which is what a constable told me he had seen there when i was there earlier this month. Thats harsh. This is a problem that the president created, in my opinion, two years ago when the president created this special program of adjudication. That lit the fuse. The president may say that wasnt what i really said or wasnt my intention but it is how it was interpreted, how it was marketed by child traffickers on the border. They are using the deferred adjudication of childhood arrivals as a means to tell people if we can get you there, you get a free pass. That is what has created the pressure on the border. The numbers have doubled each year for the past two years. When you go down and ask people on the border when did this change . When did it become different . They will tell you november, december of last year. The administration saw this coming. They knew it was coming. In no way is this an emergency appropriation. In fact, you send more money, youre probably
going to get more problem. Congressman, why hasnt the president been there . Who is secure with the border the way it is . No one. Our men and women who work for customs patrol, the social workers who work at h. H. S. , the people who work for fema who are doing all the jobs we task them for, theyre working their hearts out but the fact of the matter is theyre being overwhelmed. The process has to include stopping the flow. The president could do that by going to the border and making that statement. Congressman burgess, thank you for joining us from the Lone Star State of texas this morning. Thank you. Coming up, its happening all over the country.

Went too far in extending subsidies to those buying insurance through the federal run exchanges at healthcare. Gov. You can only do them through state exchanges. The fate of obamacare may be in jeopardy but personal troubles with the exchange are still piling up across the country. Our next guest says she was forced to get a policy under obamacare. But now what problems is she facing . Charlene lake joins us live. Good morning to you, charlene. Good morning. How are you . Okay. You thought you got a pretty good deal through
the Affordable Care act, an h. M. O. That included a family doctor, not too many miles from your home. Then when it was time to actually see a doctor, you started getting paper work. What happened to you . Basically what happened, steve, is i found a wonderful doctor. I did go in to see him for a medical situation in may. I was thrilled. I thought this is great. This is working. And he was a mile and a half from my home. I received then a letter in early july july 3 stating that they were now removing me from that p. C. P. And will be reassigning me it a new provider. Needless to say, i was very upset because i was happy with this doctor. I felt i was established with him. I went in, i filed all the paper work. You reveal a lot of personal information about yourself. I confirmed with humana. They first told me they thought it was an error. They claimed it was because of patient overload they were no longer accepting any more patients. But you werent a new patient. No, i was not a new patient. He said confirm with your doctor. I did and immediately they knew whiefs what i was talking about. She double checked and said youve been removed from the system. Heres a quote from your cancellation letter. We sent you an i. D. Card with a primary care physician. However the doctor who was assigned to you is unavailable to accept additional patients. You explained that. Thats the deal. Now youve got this policy, and whos your doctor . My doctor is questionable. I called to ask who i was being reassigned to. I spoke with a series of humana agents. I was on the phone literally for hours. I called j. S. A. Medical group, the medical group who basically has a
monopoly in many areas of florida. They are the main provider for p. C. P. s with humana, the plan i signed up for. I didnt know when i saw this doctor by name that he was part of a corporation and i risked being dropped. They refused to reinstate me. They were very unsympathetic. The agent was actually very cold and wouldnt let
