I’m concerned that this vote will go through. McConnell’s argument at this stage is that everyone should vote on the motion to proceed to get the AHCA (the House healthcare bill) to the floor, even if they don’t like it, so that it can be amended over and over until it’s an acceptable form.

Occam’s Razor would like a word with you.

It would be AMAZING if he voted no.

Frack. Of course you are right.

It’s nice that he’s going the extra mile to fuck a bunch of people over.

But perhaps McCain’s illness will encourage some rigorous self-reflection, and at last, a change of heart. Perhaps he’ll realize that in his last years, he could take a meaningful stand against his increasingly brutal party—and help to save lives in the process.

Senator McCain, now is your time to shine.

This is not his first episode of cancer. IIRC, he had skin cancer a few years back. Plus, his war injuries would also count as a pre-existing condition. But he’s had a cushy, tax payer funded plan for literally HIS ENTIRE LIFE.

“Trump, who was not a Boy Scout, got thousands of Boy Scouts to boo former President Obama, who was a Boy Scout, by suggesting that Obama never attended the National Scout Jamboree, even though he addressed the event in 2010 with a special video message in honor of the organization’s 100th anniversary.” ~ Trump is…

He wanted Exxon to get exclusive rights to drill in Russia.

It is kind of fucked up that Sessions is getting this much heat because he was TOO ethical. It’s mind boggling to me that this might be the thing that gets him canned — not the racism. Not the drug war. Not the contempt for civil liberties. But the time that he declined to help the President obstruct justice.

Anyone else have those days when you can’t focus at work, because you’re sure Donnie is going to do something catastrophically stupid and you end up going from news site to news site?

He literally only took the job so he could ease sanctions on Russian oil, so he and his buddies could rake in billions. Now that congress is blocking the administration from doing so it’s no surprise he’s no longer interested in the job.

Yet another person with connections to Russia is going to be in the government. Oh wow, yeah, there’s totally nothing going on with Russia at all. Nope, no, no siree!

Oh, Giuliani is just as bad as Sessions on race, drugs, voting rights and pretty much any policy one can think of. He can occasionally sound more tolerant because he lives in New York, where it is a necessity.

I thought that was Gingrich?

And I’m kind of enjoying Sessions refusing to resign. He’s fucking with Trump right back.

I feel confident the GOP would stick a knife in the back of Donald Trump. I’m not so sure they’d do it to their golden boy Mikey, especially because there’s a large portion of the party that despises Paul Ryan.

Huntsman is already nominated for ambassador to Russia.

Tillerson just seems completely out of his depth.
