Edit: here it is

they deserve, well, nothing from me.

be thankful to the late Reeves in terms of improved treatment options--even if he (Grimm) may be undeserving.

Spinal cord injuries that leave patients paralyzed are prayer-worthy. Most patients reap the benefits of the universe stepping in to add the support of others.

Christopher Reeve, who I worked with post-accident, was deserving of sympathy. Same with Steve Gleason.

Then again, there are some who compete to be assholes with the gift of walking they have. And then lose that gift.

Sorry, fuck assholes like the Congressman.. ♿️

Personal responsibility is your mantra.

BUT for feds (including Congress), he would have needed 5 years in a position or in office to be vested, and in the case of those in Congress, they were eventually required to use the ACA for their insurance.

So since he started in Jan. 2011 but resigned in Jan. 2015 due to criminal charges, he might not have had enough time in for the federal insurance coverage.

ETA - Just checked and before the Congressional stint, he was in the military and in civilian service for a bunch of years so he should have been vested but it's possible that he might have lost all of that when he plead guilty for the tax charges.

My fellow downstate New Yorkers and I watched this mean-boy' crawlin' up the greasy pole, in Staten Island. Whatta douche...Well sorry, fake dude-ranch dude. We're all too busy fighting for our democracy to spare one drip of lib-tard tears for yooz. In udder woids: forgetaboutit, sucka!

Did he lose all that when he was convicted of tax fraud? Karma.

that wants our financial help should be that we can't intercede because what happened to you is Gawd's will and as a believer in Jesus Christ you should understand that he wants you to suffer.

He can just pull himself up by his bootstraps, like he wants everyone else to do.

that sometimes karma works out as it should . . . .

Prove me wrong...that's the way these bastards operate. No sympathy for anyone until it happens to them.

Or concept of a health care plan

I think that’s what this 2.5 million go fund me ask is for. Insurance doesn’t cover stem cell therapy as they consider it experimental. He needs the cash, probably his only chance to walk again.

I've met him many times. He even sat with me and two friends, who happen to be far, far-left (they don't even believe in prisons; I was the only sane one at the table), and we all debated for hours. Damn, I wish him well. Not a fan of his politics, but he was nothing but nice to us.

And that's all the Tucks I have to give.

for anyone connected to that party at this time.

Maybe some day, but as I recall, he was a terrible person. so...

A US Congressman threatening a newsreporter to throw him off the rotunda balcony at the US Capitol Building- all while the microphone was on and the news video camera was operational.

Hello I'm a former FBI guy. I like to threaten media people like a Mafia goon Thug would. Oh did I tell you, I'm also a US Congress person.

Takes a lot of balls.

to think of something nice to say regarding his tragic situation.
I need more time to think - lots more!

Because that's going to determine how much I care

the past which will free his mind to focus on his physical health.
