If Trump eliminates the subsidies, it’s sort of hard to put the blame on Democrats for not caving to his insane demands isn’t it?

The Freedom Caucus sank TrumpCare because it wasn’t cruel enough.

Why would Democratic leaders negotiate? They haven’t so far and this insane idea won’t work. Republicans control all three branches of government. They just eliminated the filibuster. There’s literally nothing standing in their way if they choose to repeal the ACA other than their utter incompetence. Democrats…

I honestly hope he follows through on this strategy. It will result in several lawsuits almost immediately. Those subsidies are written into the ACA. He’s president, not the king. He can’t pick and choose which laws he wants to follow. Democrats need only sit back, point and laugh. It’s one more example of his…

Last night and no, I didn’t fuck her. The thought makes me a sick in fact. She’s my daughter.

Every Lamaze class should begin with that oath.

Those pictures were eventually published by Time Magazine which reached a considerably larger audience than the newspaper than originally published them. Time published those photos with the express consent of Ms. Till. Maybe you should educate yourself.

They vote for them because they’ve been taught to hate the other side. They have their team, their tribe if you will, and if you’re not on their team, you’re an enemy. They will reject an proposal, any idea that drops if their corporate masters, using their talk radio and wingnut media megaphones, tells them to. …

This idea is hardly new. Almost every President in recent memory tried to “reform” the system. It will result in several photo ops, a few proposals and no action from Congress or the White House on those proposals. The reason is, to actually fix the problems mentioned above (veterans affairs, technology, the opioid…

Their hillbilly voters would have lost their shit if any concessions were made to Democrats. These are toothless fools who spend all day listening to talk radio preaching hatred of all things progressive. Most of them would quite literally vote for Putin over even a conservative Democrat. They cannot be reasoned…

Vote Republican! We don’t know how to govern and we promise never to learn! Incompetence now, incompetence forever!

I feel you but this is different. Republicans do not want to own the outcome here and if they somehow “win” and get this thing passed, they will own it.

We did something like this right after 9/11 but we were told to be afraid of terrorists taking over our building (worked in the Graybar which sits atop Grand Central Terminal in NYC). All I remember about it was Anthony Weiner had an office next to ours so he was part of group. This was prior to his infamous…

“ It’s no mystery why any responsible employer would want to prepare its employees for what is unfortunately becoming an increasingly routine workplace hazard.”

It’s not going to take long for people to realize this simple fact. Republicans suck at governing. They’re excellent at throwing tantrums though.

There’s no chance this thing gets done. Even if it passes in the House, the Senate will not pass it in it’s current form. Once it goes to conference, the warring factions within the dysfunctional Republican Caucus will be further exposed as idiots like Ted Cruz and his Freedom Caucus friends do battle with so called…

Is there some committee, some panel of experts on which the person quoted above sits, that decides who is and who is not allowed to comment on issues involving violence against African Americans? Because I was unaware of such a committee or I would have submitted my comments to them for pre-approval before posting…

Actually, that’s exactly the argument made in the comment I replied to.
