Senators don’t vote on House bills. It doesn’t matter, the Republicans managed to find enough of their shitty ilk to get that bill through. No Democrats voted for it at all.

 I don’t think any Democrats voted for that bill. They got the exact minimum required to pass the bill. 217, to be exact. The 216th vote was Issa, who barely won re-election by 2 percent in a heavily red district, the smallest margin ever. His opponent (Applegate) is running again next year. I think Applegate’s…

West Virginia is highly dependent on Medicaid, even though they voted for Trump (only because he lied and said he was bringing back coal jobs), if they screw with Medicaid, they will piss off the poor white working class in that state. 11 states have 30 percent or more dependent on Medicaid and Medicare, and they all…

They refused to show what was in the bill or let the CBO score it. No one knows what the new numbers are. Upton went for it because they got 8 billion more dollars for help with medicaid expenses but it took far more than that away from it in the first place.

Sociopathic congressmen tend to look for people of their kind, hence the shitty aides and helpers in the offices.

Yeah, even gerrymandering won’t help them. Although more Democrats have seats up for re-election next year, their chances of that just went up. And the Republicans have to defend their seats next year, too. But the Republicans think they’re safer on that side, too.

And if you’ve ever had a c-section, it counts as a pre-existing condition. And once you’ve had a c-section, you have to have them every time you give birth from that point on. And pregnancy expenses are estimated to go up 400 percent under Trumpcare.

Yeah, Obama essentially won a Nobel Peace Prize, just for not being his predecessor. It’s sad that his administration is bookended by two incompetent presidents, who only won because they thought they could afford to give the job to two oafs who failed their ways up.

Or a+b, then that result, times c, then that result minus d.

Yeah, trying....with all houses of Congress with Republican majorities, and a conservative-leaning slim majority on the Supreme Court. Yeah, he’s really trying to do shit he promised during his campaign with no hope of it actually happening. Like the dying coal industry somehow reviving itself with ever escalating…

Actually, Ann Coulter faded away for a number of years. Even though the college invited her back after cancelling her speech, she refused to come back. It’s hard to cry victim when you decide to not even bother to show up and troll college students. I’m sure she’ll try to play the victim somehow. But her audience laps…

I think they wanted to find out just how extensive the backlash to his comments were and they found out what he was up to. He’s like a cockroach that won’t go away. He gets off on trolling people any way he can. But things like this have a limited effect, like James O’Keefe of Project Veritas. Once people found out…

Actually, less than four years (almost 7 percent of the way through) and the election coverage starts earlier and earlier now, roughly about two years into the presidency, usually around the time of the mid-terms.

Watergate took over two years from start to end (break-in to impeachment). It takes a while to put a case together, and don’t forget that the Republicans are pumping the brakes every single second they can on the investigations. Which means either the international community will have to leak their evidence to the…

He asked for immunity, they denied his request (it looks like they have proof against him that they can use against him as leverage, even without immunity). If you’re granted immunity, you can never invoke the 5th amendment (right against self-incrimination) during testimony, and during the Iran-Contra scandal…

The 96 percent of Republicans that would vote for him over again, are the same 36 percent of the general voter public. Too many people sat out the election thinking both sides were the same, or literally were disfranchised in the process of voting (especially in Michigan and Wisconsin, two states that were part of the…

When Mexico refused to pay for it, they had to move the goalposts on that policy---like it’d end up saving more money in the long run....somehow.

Well, can’t Congress pass the budget, sent it to Trump to be vetoed, than re-pass it with the required majority to override his veto? There’s enough votes, right on both sides?

Yeah, like Reince Priebus, currently the White House Chief of Staff, and Paul Ryan, of gerrymandered Democratic-voting hometown Janesville, and Scott Walker, walking talking piece of shit who didn’t even register any bit of charisma in the Iowa primaries and those voters sent him home. Apparently his neighbors don’t…

Sorry, even though I knew he was trying to say Hitler, I just automatically went with the first two letters of the chemical element name, even though that didn’t align with the actual name he was trying to spell out and I somehow forgot to mentally spellcheck that.
