CHICAGO POLITICS IN WASHINGTON

"Obama Ally Got $340 Million to Set Up Health Care Co-Ops." The moralists and watchdogs seem strangely silent when these kinds of things go on in Washington today.

A health insurance company headed by an old friend from President Obama's days as a community organizer got a $340 million federal loan to establish Obamacare co-ops in New York, New Jersey and Oregon despite having a chronic record of consumer and regulatory complaints.

The New York-based Freelancers Insurance Company has been rated the "worst" insurer for two straight years by state regulators, and data compiled by a national insurance association show an extremely high rate of consumer complaints.
