“Also in June of this year, the Trump administration Department of Health and Human Services issued a rule meant to combat waste, fraud and abuse and Obamacare subsidies. The rule would have gone into effect on August 25, 2025, but a Biden appointed federal judge issued a stay that prevented most of the fraud protection measures in the rule from going into effect. The judge's opinion was legally and factually ridiculous. The Trump administration rule would have required individuals enrolled in fully subsidized plans to confirm their eligibility or pay $5 a $5 fee.” (05:08–05:22)
