Huh. Spending money like water, but no interest in funding programs/healthcare for the people?

If you live in rural America, large cities are intimidating. Once there, you realize how much fun they are to visit. They are lying to do what? The only explanation is to cause riots so he can declare the insurrection act. So far they are struggling…

I agree. He should’ve thought of that b’fore he started his campaign for the prize. He lives in an alternate universe where he has never had consequences for his actions. But Karma…

They are also injuring people daily, blowing up boats and disappearing people and not being held accountable. Amazing…

There was a box that was checked, but in paperwork filed she wrote that it was not her primary. I wonder if that fact was presented?

Do you think that most people don’t believe babies live in the placenta? And early circumcision causes autism due to Tylenol?

Duffy just threatened to fire Air Traffic Controllers that don’t show up to work…could there be a more stressful job? They are overworked, understaffed and are working without pay. I don’t think it’s a good idea to threaten them further. These people just can’t read the room.

Yep but I think Pete and Howard loved it

RFK jr: studies show babies that get circumcised early have higher autism rates, probably because they give them Tylenol…..seriously?!

Congressional trip! If we are spending money on this, they should do oversight

I used to wake up and just go about my day. Now it’s just bad and scary news everyday. Even people who like him have to be at least a little nervous. They keep pushing and pushing the limits and I fear we are going to have a horrible avoidable crisis.

I know this sounds bad but I feel like the only reason this deal is happening is because the prize winners are being announced on Friday. It’s a good thing it’s happening but I worry if he doesn’t win he will make no effort to continue or care.

He had 4 yrs and did nothing. The only plan this time seems to be how to cut and privatize services. Show us the plan that all of you have been developing…

Thune: "The president would like to overhaul Obamacare and give people health insurance that is higher quality and more affordable."

I don’t think anyone needs more time to figure out that they don’t have any ideas or plans besides tax breaks for the top % and cutting programs that affect mostly low income families.

CNN: Marjorie Taylor Greene says Republicans have no healthcare solutions. What do you say to her?

REP. PETE SESSIONS: She needs a couple more years in office and she would learn that we do have ideas on the table

This would be a great time to bring some congress people there to show them how ridiculous this is. They aren’t working. I would think if this is soooo serious that they are using military then they would do a trip

It's Trump's dementia talking. You almost feel sorry for Republican politicians, they have to pretend this dufus is making sense.

Why aren’t they being charged with assault? They need to figure this out quick before they think they can do anything they want. They are giving normal law enforcement a bad name

They’ve discovered that if they keep saying it the base will believe it no matter what and a good portion of the US only hears sound bites so don’t know what’s going on. I’m starting to feel like we have had it too comfortable and don’t believe ____could happen here. Fill in the blank

NEW: Bodycam footage shows that the Chicago woman shot by ICE after allegedly ramming agents with her car actually shows the OPPOSITE – the agent rammed HER, then jumped out, and started shooting. 😳 Sue him for everything he's worth. ICE too.

Yes it is…they should also send back the Bible’s for a refund. Apparently they are missing some stuff in the constitution part. They are also hugely overpriced
