If they keep telling us in various ways that we should ignore what Trump says maybe we should

Yeah, that's the issue. These nonsense pundits(Garland, Mensch, Abramson) get passed around Twitter like they aren't just idiots on the internet wildly making **** up.

45* has a strange relationship with the Failing New York Times. He is always slamming them in the press but then he calls them directly when he wants to report something, like the health care bill failing. And it seems like the more Trump insults them, the more subscriptions they get.

How about a hearty loliowa?

Iowa Republicans originally wanted a so-called "fetal heartbeat" bill, which would have restricted abortions after as little as six weeks of pregnancy.

Doesn't the fact that the counties that benefited the most from Obamacare voted the heaviest for Trump disprove the idea that Democrats are giving blacks free things just to get blacks to vote for Democrats?

I mean other than the obvious answer of why blacks vote Democrat.

With virtually none defending a seat in 2018 and a 35% job approval, makes it a little easier on them.

GOP Senators definitely taking this more seriously than Nunes, but they're also throwing out a lot of leading questions trying to make political points. It's not perfect, but definitely better than the circus that is the House investigation.

Paul Ryan not even bothering to hide how evil he is.

"What I worry about, Norah (O'Donnell), is if we don't do this, then he'll just go work with Democrats to try to change Obamacare -- and that's hardly a conservative thing," he said.

Someone needs to tell this ******* his job is to work for the American people, not shun the majority of the country which support the ACA.

At least Democrats are willing to implement right-wing solutions like ACA.

Rubio apparently also a target of Russian interference. If that extends to all Trump's primary opponents, the Senate is going to start looking very interesting.

bwahahah now trump is making sure to alienate even his most hardcore defnders by piling on the freedom caucus and defending the ahca more, his best play was to act like he never liked the ahca that much but now he's done goofed up again.

North Carolina's Republican legislature is trying to pull quite a scam. They're pretending to "repeal" the transgender bathroom law HB 2 but the bill doesn't really do that.
