Senator Dianne Feinstein was recently asked whether or not she supports a 'Medicare for All' healthcare system, and using right-wing talking points, she declined to support it because it constitutes a governmental "takeover" of healthcare in her view. We already knew her rhetoric was influenced by her health industry donors, but a new article reveals just how cozy she really is with the health insurance industry.

always comes back to corporate donors. I’m running for POTUS in 2020 as a progressive. Help me fight these corporate Elite and plutocracy that’s taken over our govt! #rockthevote2020 & subscribe!
She’s 83 and will be dead soon. So there’s some good news
that’s to good!
phil says Too old to compute shame with retirement because she should’ve had enough chance to retire gracefully.
My Democratic congressman, Ami Bera, does not support Medicare for All because one of his top donors is Kaiser Healthcare. If you are in his district please send him an email, and, if he doesn’t support it, let’s primary him.
Denise Devoto Pharma and Insurance are the swamps top donors
Ive emailed him and told him to do his got damn job. He even states on his home page that “Listening to you is my most important job”…
He might listen to us, but he does what his donors want. He was one of only 14 Democrats to vote to fast track the TPP. He is worthless.
Phone calls are the most important
Not gonna lie, I absolutely LOVE watching you make these calls. It’s inspiring.
He even inspired people like Kyle to start doing it too.
Really? I generally skip over the phone call part of his videos.
The democrats and republicans are working together to distract us from single-payer. The republicans are playing bad cop, trying to take away obamacare. The democrats are playing good cop, trying to save it. Every time the republicans try to take obamacare away from us, the democrats say, “See, stop whining about universal healthcare which you are never going to get anyway and help us save obamacare.”
The thing that really gets me is that the dems are only trying to save it cause ti’s name after their darling Obama, and not because it’s actually good for us. Remember: Obamacare is the Heritage Foundation care. It forces people to BUY insurance. That is not a liberal ideal.
I’m sending letters supporting HR 676 Medicare for All to the newspaper editors in my state.
I’d like for Dianne to try and live without healthcare for a few years at her advance age.
Abyssal Mang, Great point, all who are opposed to H. R. 676 should have to live without insurance for a couple of years.
Call & Mail ALL-FIVE of her offices (swamp her)…& share this info.

I love it when you make phone calls, Mike.
She also stated on Meet the Press Sunday that the Health Market is now 1/5th of our economy … and if the Republicans repeal Obama Care many jobs would be lost. Jobs won’t be lost she is protecting the people filling their pockets with the overflow of cash from the corrupt Health Care plan passed in 2008.
I will never vote for her again. I’m really disgusted with her
nice message mike!…diannes gotta go its time for some new blood
Mike I couldn’t have said it better…..thank you….. I’m all on Board!
I like you man.
Love the phone calls, Mike! Showing people how it’s done!
Non, we just want her to know we want her gone, she’s already gotten her 10’s of millions, it’s time for her to go! Feinstein Raus!
I’ll go in person. I live in San Diego.
Damn bro. I bet she was shook when she heard that.
