Hearing rumours that staff leaving WH comms department is more substantial than the one guy they're currently reporting got the ax...not that it will make a whole lot of difference who works in the office as long as Trump continues to tweet

When it was reported that 'everyone' was being interviewed/reviewed for loyalty, I assumed that it would purge most everyone that would not take the fabled 'loyalty pledge' which would need to include complete and public endorsement of every and any DjT action. There have to be a few people with the backbone to say, at the least, that the tweets are stupid which is followed by a walk to the door.

It's actually a vote to proceeing to vote to take healthcare away from millions. A vote on the Frankenstein that results (if we get a MTP) from vote-a-rama will be voted on by the Senate at the end of the week, probably.

Also, I am pretty sure that the Cruz Amendment needs 60 votes (so it's dead). Also since this is done via reconciliation the bill will be open for 20 hours of debate and amendment. There is no filibuster, but there is unlimited germane amendments (until McConnell changes the rules in reaction to this tactic).

Former President George W. Bush's chief ethics lawyer on Tuesday said President Trump calling for Hillary Clinton to be prosecuted is an “impeachable offense.”

“Pressuring [attorney general] to prosecute the person who lost the election is an impeachable offense if we value free elections,” Richard Painter tweeted.


Can someone tell me exactly what Trump did to Richard Painter, or is it just that he is ethical? Between him and the former photographer, they nail him daily.

We need to make sure the bill doesn't get to that...It'd have a good chance to pass if amendments are allowed. Who knows what could be in their back pocket

Susan Collins on a hot mic

Farenthold wouldn't hold a town hall back in April when this was with the House so his constituents held one with a cardboard cutout of him. And it didn't back down! So watch out, Susie.



In 2014, Farenthold was sued by a former staffer, who accused the congressman of gender discrimination, saying that he created a hostile work environment and improperly fired her after she complained. The sexual harassment lawsuit was settled out of court in 2015 on confidential terms.

Senate Dems plan on holding a vigil after the vote on Congress steps... doesn't sound good, but if they expect to lose than they should push McConnel's limits on destroying norms and submit as many germane amendments they can think of before he kiboshes it.

We're at a point where we're flying in a man with brain cancer to vote to take away healthcare from millions of Americans. I'm almost impressed; every time I think we've hit rock bottom we manage to sink lower. A sick part of me kind of wants to see how far we can fall as a nation.
