Trump ‘Supervolunteer’ Tells Healthcare Story


Days after Congress passed a bill to Repeal and Replace Obamacare, it’s now in the hands of the Senate. However, for some, like Ray Reynolds, it’s a start to what the American healthcare system needs. Reynolds is a photographer and followed the Trump campaign across the country taking over 60 thousand photos. He compiled some of those photos into books, documenting his campaign experience, but also, his family’s struggle with health insurance. His mother and sister both died while waiting for treatment. He says “I lost a sister that was 52 years old. Now, I’ve got health issues with diabetes and I’m going down the same path she went down.”
He calls Obamacare a “death tax for the elderly and senior citizens.”
Reynolds clearly doesn’t hold back on his distaste for America’s current healthcare system. Living in Virginia where insurance rates have increased 252%, he’s a man with diabetes unable to get insurance, facing potential premiums up to thousands of dollars.
To find his books, “My Path My Purpose” and “ Making America Great Again” on the campaign and the healthcare struggle that inspired him to volunteer, visit DJT.digital.

White House postpones meeting to decide on participation in Paris climate pact


A meeting of Trump administration advisers that had been scheduled for Tuesday to decide whether to pull the United States out of the Paris Climate Agreement has been postponed due to scheduling conflicts, a White House official said.
Key advisers to President Donald Trump and cabinet officials were due to convene at the White House to resolve an internal debate over whether Trump should keep his campaign promise to pull the United States out of the Paris agreement, according to senior administration officials and several people briefed on the meeting.
The White House official did not say when the meeting would be rescheduled.
The meeting was meant to lay the groundwork for a formal proposal to Trump, who has promised to announce a decision before a Group of Seven summit at the end of May.
Ahead of Tuesday’s originally planned meeting, business groups and some lawmakers called on the White House to remain in the Paris agreement, while some conservative policy groups urged the advisers to recommend a withdrawal.
Meanwhile, representatives of nearly 200 countries that are party to the Paris agreement are meeting in Bonn this week to discuss technical aspects of implementing the accord.
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will host the biennial Arctic Council meeting in Fairbanks, Alaska, later this week.

French ex-prime minister Valls plans to back Macron in June elections


Manuel Valls, a former French Socialist prime minister, said on Tuesday that he wished to support President-elect Emmanuel Macron’s political movement in the June elections in the lower house of parliament.
“I will be a candidate in the presidential majority and I wish to join up to his movement, namely the ‘Republic on the Move’,” Valls told RTL radio.
Macron is working to obtain a majority in the lower house of parliament in June elections.
His party chief, Richard Ferrand, said on Monday that Macron’s ‘En Marche’ movement would change its name to “En Marche la République” or “Republic on the Move”, so as to structure itself more like a traditional party.
Ferrand also said the names of Macron’s 577 candidates in the legislative elections would be announced this Thursday.
