Does anyone know the identity of the arrogant Trumpy gargoyle who tells the lies

on the anti-BBB ad on TV?

The ads are financed by the "Partnership to Fight Chronic Disease", a big-Pharma subsidiary and she is supposedly just an indignant woman in Georgia.

But this reads like big-Pharma is anti-BBB, we can't have healthy people running around,
they need half healthy people to make their enormous profits.

As soon as she comes on she talks about government price-setting and how that's dangerous and may cause her not to have access to her drugs because in other countries that's happened

My husband has turned it into a game: "How many times is that? We up to a hundred yet?"

The ad has been running for a good ten days. Pharma must be very worried. There's another ad claiming small, rural hospitals will be forced to close if the legislation is passed.

Gearing up the fear. Of lost profits.

These corporate/political interests are shameless. They've ridden the backs of the American people for so long, they think it's their constitutional right.

Change is in the wind!

Btw, I have no idea who the woman is in the ad.
