"It would be free at the POINT OF CARE."
"That's a trade worth making."
WELKER: You are acknowledging people making less than $1M can see taxes go up?
EL SAYED: We'd be paying healthcare a different way...I'd rather pay into a government.

Abdul El-Sayed is the first Democrat to win statewide in Michigan without carrying Wayne, Oakland or Macomb since Bernie Sanders in 2016.

The ten Boom family helped hide Jews and members of the Dutch resistance from the Nazis. A secret room was built behind a false wall in Corrie’s bedroom, and their home became part of a larger underground network that protected people marked for death.

Corrie’s father, who was 84 years old, died only days after his arrest.
Corrie and Betsie ...
