This day should be forever known as Christmas 2.

Do Fox News contributors get health coverage? Asking for a friend.

And for your listening pleasure:

I look like a dope.

It’s impossible to explain to him in words small enough for him to understand, I’m afraid.

I agree that the record there is abysmal. My plan forward is more or less, look like the adults in the room and come forward with real policy proposals and explanations why they are superior. I am advocating for publicly looking like adults and fighting like hell through votes, call-in campaigns, etc., but I stand by…

Look, I’m not saying that isn’t a distinct possibility. And if that happened, it would be wrong. I’m saying that this is the right play today. Political brinkmanship benefits precisely no one, especially at this point in the election cycle. If the Dem response to this today was, “See assholes, this is why we need…

This is not a good take. He’s trying to paint Republicans into a corner with this line. If they don’t come to the table and try to repair ACA, they look unreasonable and it gives Dems even more campaign fodder than just the votes of the last week. They get to be the adults in the room and Republicans will be the ones…

In fact, by and large, the ACA is a re-tread of the Republican health care bill from 1993. “A mandate that individuals buy insurance, subsidies for the poor to buy insurance and the requirement that insurers offer a standard benefits package and refrain…

Absolutely. I sent an email to Murkowski and Collins first thing this morning thanking them for their votes and their constant opposition. I would encourage everyone to do the same.

You have to be prepared to answer the question, “What will it cost?” Always a good idea to argue a return on…

This is fake news. This is just a picture of the Mooch from yesterday, but wearing a stupid wig.

Anyone fretting that the White House won’t still leak like a sieve, stop. This guy doesn’t have the ability to fire Kushner and Bannon. Leaks will be plentiful.

This guy looks like Sack Lodge’s older brother.

In an alternate universe, Spicey will resign and sing like a song-bird. Since we are living in the worst possible universe, he will get a huge deal from Fox News and continue to defend this incompetent monstrosity of an administration that publicly humiliated him on the reg.

Cool cool cool. This is all normal and good.

Nah. If this were Trump, he’d say he doesn’t exercise because the body has a finite amount of energy stored up for your lifespan. It’s science.

“Mommy, look I’m in the big-boy truck!”
