actually it's Literal Murder, just as any universal health care plan that isn't identical to Bernie's, which itself is more robust and comprehensive than the vast majority of European UHC models.
That's probably the mock caucuses, but who knows if that translates into actual wins.
Hey the Dems are only half as bigoted as the white supremacists in the 2020, progress!
Ship has sailed on her being M4A in my first 100 days candidate. She's just a female Bernie with that message. If Warren wants to open up a new lane and peel off voters from other candidates she needs unique policy positions, and I don't think anyone else is currently doing M4A as a mid-term goal, immediate and substantial reforms to the current system as short term. May not be the best message but you go to war with the army you got.
I still think it's the best idea. I think we can more rapidly fix up the ACA than we can wholesale replace it, so fix it up (bring back the tax penalty and public option), and then work on something even better.
The size of head tax needed would likely be so large as to be impossible to offset with the impact of the transfer.
Let's do a VAT instead.
Based on the efforts to leak the identity of the whistleblower I am pretty sure we have enough circumstantial evidence to know it was not Bolton. For one thing, the whistleblower is still working in government.
However, if you consider writing a tell-all book to be blowing the whistle, he did do that.
"We call executive privilege because Bolton may discuss topics no party has mentioned in addition to his claims."
Your have to be present and call it at the time.
Graham is the living embodiment of this hypocrisy, as he can simultaneously say what Trump did was perfectly fine and, in the same statement, blast Biden for doing serious harm to the U.S. for doing exactly the kind of thing Trump is accused of!
Well not THAT woman...will always be the excuse...
There's no fucking way that only 8% of people wouldn't vote for a woman. I'd be amazed if only 8% of women wouldn't vote for a woman.
It would certainly be interested at the convention because there is no chance the DNC will put a plank in the platform to eliminate private insurance. This is another thing that worries me about Sanders. He might not actually back down and then you would have candidates in local races all over the country running away from him on that issue.
The whistleblowers information was second hand tho. And they reached out to the intel committee before going to the IG.
Dershowitz represents the fundamental belief of the Republican party - campaign finance violations, gerrymandering, blatant lies, voter suppression, and lame duck fuckery can't be wrong, because Democrats do not deserve representation.
"It's perfectly fine to use foreign interference to your advantage" is just saying the quiet part out loud re: Nixon/Reagan.

Correct. It's just now being said out loud. Honestly it also opens the door for clear legislation when Dems are next in power.
If this was Nixon right now, and all of these current GOP Senators were in this "trial" against Nixon, they would say nothing he did was impeachable and all of them would acquit.
Please ask this.
And if they say this is okay, then I want all the Democratic candidates to pledge to do this the first day they're in office as President.
I agree, and I think someone who is adept at manipulating the regulatory state and the executive is going to have a more immediate impact than someone who is counting on a "political revolution" to strong arm or replace a bunch of senators.
There's no fucking way that only 8% of people wouldn't vote for a woman. I'd be amazed if only 8% of women wouldn't vote for a woman.
"Well, not that woman, nor that woman either. And definitely not her, or her or even her!!"
If you ask this all Republicans will immediately collapse onto fainting couches while clutching their pearls in tears from the lack of civility.
Not a fan of superdelegates considering that it can be used as a tool by the media to manipulate voters into making the "frontrunner" a self-fulfilling prophecy. The 2016 Democratic primary still leaves a sour taste in my mouth with the way the media was beating the drum for Hillary via superdelegates.
This country is fucked. Senate Republicans, if they side with this argument, are basically agreeing that the Legislative Branch serves no purpose. If everything the President does is inherently to benefit the country, then there is no need for a legislative body to produce legislation or provide a check and balance. Republicans are effectively saying that their branch of the government may as well be dissolved.
I would not advise going there.
Trump Lifts Obama-Era Protections Trapping Gangthor The Malevolent In Tomb Deep Within Murky Depths Of Pacific Ocean
Media is dumb at covering primaries, but the DNC was repeatedly telling media to NOT use superdelegates in their counts, because they hadn't done anything yet
Considering the GOP closed ranks again this might be the only move left. If he cares.
Get fucked, Rand
That's probably what they want. They probably want it so that the President can make the laws and then also appoint Judges to "interpret" the laws as he made them.
They want a King.
Posted already in the primary OT, figured I'd post here as well. Who will win the Iowa caucus? https://strawpoll.com/rchpzbss
I really wish the Democrats would attack the whole javelin defense head on. Yeah, Trump provided them missiles, that they aren't allowed to use in the ongoing conflict and have to be stored away from the front. It's not like Putin is rolling tank columns towards Kiev, and if he did, a handful of missiles ain't stopping him anyway. It was a symbolic gesture in exchange for non-cooperation with Mueller.
I really hope someone polls Americans again on whether they are willing to vote for a socialist. I'm still deeply worried about these results from 2015.
the bad news for Sanders is that more people are willing to vote for a socialist than a democratic socialist (50% willing to vote for someone identifying as "socialist" versus 47% willing to vote for someone identifying as a "democratic socialist".
Actually, from the looks of it, it would offset the impact of the transfer. Let's do neither, because it's more efficient to get that revenue through other means.
