Maybe. But the odds of it going away are much higher today than they were a few months ago. And they will be higher in coming months.

The program is a disaster for not only Americans but for other nations who rely on us for innovation. Major teaching and research facilities are having to cut staff because of ACA.

Chaos erupts at Cantor election night headquarters after his departure

By Laura Vozzella, Tuesday, June 10, 9:32 PM



RICHMOND — As if the political drama were not powerful enough, chaos erupted at the election night headquarters shortly after House Majority Leader Eric Cantor conceded his stunning defeat to tea party backed conservative David Brat.



Cantor addressed his supporters for about four minutes at a suburban Richmond hotel ballroom, then boarded SUV without taking questions from supporters scurrying after him.



Then it got really rambunctious. In the room of downcast Cantor supporters, a new energy suddenly erupted — but not the kind they wanted election night. A group of immigration activists stormed the ballroom, screaming and waving a flag. “What do we want? Immigration reform! When do we want it? Now!”

(all staged expecting a win, lololol, the people have spoken)
