Obama’s White House Photographer Trolls GOP Over Today’s Obamacare Repeal Vote

*Former President Barack Obama’s White House photographer, who regularly uses his Instagram account to mock the Trump administration, marked the House GOP’s passage of their Obamacare repeal-and-replace bill today with a throwback to the day Democrats passed the Affordable Care Act.

“Someone had sent a message that ended with ‘your mother would be so proud,'” Pete Souza wrote.

Obama’s mom died of ovarian cancer, and according to Souza “spent her last days worrying whether insurance was going to cover some of the medical expenses because they might consider her cancer a pre-existing condition.”

12:09 a.m. March 22, 2010. Treaty Room in the private residence. 80 minutes after Congress had passed the Affordable Care Act. The President was reading text messages on his Blackberry while waiting to make thank you calls. Someone had sent a message that ended with “your mother would be so proud.” (His mother had died from ovarian cancer. She had spent her last days worrying whether insurance was going to cover some of the medical expenses because they might consider her cancer a pre-existing condition.)
