Yeah there's not going to be "tax reform." It'll be Bush tax cuts 2.0.

Elotana posted:Do we actually know that it's the BCRA coming back and not the clean repeal? The only thing we're pretty sure about is that it won't be a "clean" repeal, as in a bill that says "everything in the ACA is now erased", because that would require 60 votes. These days, the shorthand for repeal means "everything that can be repealed via reconciliation", but we just say repeal for brevity. Clean repeal usually means actual, everything out, repeal. Beyond that, we don't know what the senate plans to vote on.

I think a nice big gently caress YOU REICE, YOU BIG STUPID oval office is in order for a man who bent over backwards to defend Trump during the campaign at times when even people as loving despicable as Ryan were condemning the things Trump was saying. This is what you get for throwing your lot in with Trump

Literally nobody knows what the senate is going to vote on. Five minutes before that, McConnel will frantically make a few squiggles on a piece of toilet paper. The CBO manages to calculate that one billion people will somehow lose coverage from that.

I mean he was a Senator for decades. He's a piece of poo poo but he knows you can do all sorts of heinous things but still remain inside the law.

She just wants a token, meaningless amount for the problem so she can act like some kind of maverick for doing something, I assume. The opiate epidemic is way bigger than anyone is really acknowledging.

Who would even be pissed off if a nazi got removed from a game? It drives me crazy that they didn't ask this guy to leave--who would be upset? Would conservatives honestly be angry? Like can we seriously no longer agree as a country that nazi tattoos being openly displayed in public is grounds for being removed from a place?

I'm tempted to think that Sessions would rather be Pence's AG than Trump's, and wouldn't mind seeing Mueller get the entire family's scalps, but Sessions is almost certainly implicated in whatever the conspiracy was. So I guess that means he actually cares about due process (except for minorities).
