A caravan has crossed the boarder why didn't Fox News cover it?

What is Fox News and Republicans trying to hide? A Caravan of Americans with Type 1 diabetes crossed the boarder into Canada to get affordable healthcare because Republicans have turned their back on these Americans and all American who are not in the 1%.

Why is this not being covered 24/7 are Americans not as important for the news as Mexicans?


Calling the cost of insulin in the U.S. a "price crisis," the #Insulin4All group noted on its website that since the mid-1990s, the price tag on insulin in America has skyrocketed more than 1,100 percent, according to data from Truven Health Analytics, despite the cost of production for a vial of analog insulin costing less than $10.

A recently released report ordered by Representative Elijah Cummings, a Maryland Democrat who chairs the House Oversight Committee, found that millions of Americans who rely on insulin were paying up to 92 percent more for the lifesaving medication than patients in other countries.

Posting a photo of a Walgreens pharmacy store on the caravan's journey to Canada, Nystrom wrote that the group "could've ended our #CaravanToCanada in 5 minutes, but unfortunately, they charge $300 for insulin. So, we will travel another 5 hours north so we will only have to pay $30 for a vial of insulin."



$300 for insulin in the US for the exact same bottle it's $30 for a American in Canada.. Why do Republicans hate America so much? Why did Trump lie when he said he'd fix healthcare to make it affordable? Why do dumb Red Hats go along with anything their dear leader tells them?
