Republicans are charging ahead with their plan to rip health care from millions of people, take food from hungry children and hand billions in tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy—all while adding trillions to the national debt.
It is a cruel betrayal of hardworking American families.

Republicans advanced their budget at *11pm on Sunday* and they'll vote again on *Wednesday at 1am.*
They know their bill is deeply unpopular and will rip away healthcare & food from millions of people.

The House Rules Committee -- which changes bills however the House speaker tells it to before they hit the House floor -- is meeting Weds at 1am to bring up the GOP's massive tax plan, which strips health insurance from 13.7M people to give tax breaks to rich people.
Definitely nothing to see here!

Good news: Donald Trump, who never lies, just announced he alone has reduced drug prices by 85%.
Quick.
Go to your pharmacy. Demand an 85% reduction on your drug prices. Tell them Trump sent you.
If that doesn’t work, tell him to support the bill I'm introducing that'll do it.

Agreed. At bottom, SCt rules 7-2 saying no more removals of anyone under AEA until SCt has the chance to decide what "due process" is req'd under the Const. Kavanaugh concurs as I read him solely to make clear he thinks SCt should just decide all the merits Qs now (w/o sending back to CA5 first).
HUGE. A direct rebuke to the Trump administration's practice of shoving people onto planes: "Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, devoid of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster."
