The GOP can't come up with a better healthcare plan than the ACA for one simple, inescapable reason.
Any plan better for Americans than the ACA will inevitably have to be some form of Medicare for All. There is no for-profit, private insurer centered plan that can be cheaper.

A federal judge in California on Wednesday ordered an end to Donald Trump's deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles and directed that they be returned to the control of the state's Democratic governor, finding that the Republican president had exceeded his authority.

My son was in preschool when Republicans first promised to have a better plan than the ACA.

It's the fault of the DOJ/ FTC and politicians of both parties, for allowing big insurance companies and hospital systems to become the largest companies in the country, giving them the ability to set pricing and rules for healthcare
They run healthcare. Period end of story

Here's the thing:
They're going to do that regardless. They were doing it before the tax credits!
Healthcare is too expensive but that's not the fault of the ACA subsidies.

I hope the Dems realize that if they extend the ACA subsidies, and take no other steps, they are giving carte blanche to the biggest insurance companies and major hospital systems to find new ways to game the system and increase costs.

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.
A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

Of course the administration that judges people based on skin color also wants to judge people by how they dress at airports. Insecurity is a trillion dollar industry. We can free ourselves by realizing that our value does not depend on how we look.

Annual reminder that the Pilgrims were so horrified by joy - aka “Satan’s trap” - they avoided music, dance, even color - hence the garb.

NEW: ICE has torn up its $180M cap on a proposed immigrant-tracking program and is now guaranteeing private surveillance firms at least $7.5M each, with potential payouts reaching $281M per vendor. The change signals a shift from “pilot” to full-scale outsourcing of street-level investigative work.
