Daily Beast...
"Security is quite literally dragging people away from outside McConnell's office"
There are videos popping up of folks being dragged out. If I understand this correctly these folks have illnesses and are on Medicaid.
Way to go Mitch you jerk.

From BBC..
"Donald Trump says he did not make secret recordings of ex-FBI chief James Comey despite earlier hint to the contrary"
This is why you can't believe anything he says. Ever.

NBC News...
"Mitch McConnell: "I regret that our Democratic friends made clear early on they did not want to work with us"
"McConnell: "[Democrats] were wrong before. They're wrong again now, because Obamacare isn't working by any measure."
It really amazes me how they think they can get away with these bald face lies. But more amazing is how many people believe these bald face lies.

What we have here is tiny hands spin...
"With all of the recently reported electronic surveillance, intercepts, unmasking and illegal leaking of information, I have no idea..."
"...whether there are "tapes" or recordings of my conversations with James Comey, but I did not make, and do not have, any such recordings."
You read this and you just want to sit down and cry and wonder how we reached this point that this lying narcissistic petty individual is the president of this country.

President Obama....
"Health care has always been about something bigger than politics: it's about the character of our country. facebook.com/barackobama/po…"
Its clear with trump/Ryan/McConnell this country has very little character with this gang as the leaders of the country.

So HE, HIMSELF alluded to having tapes. He, HIMSELF, threatened to bring out said tapes. Now, he admits he LIED about those and is trying to blame someone else for saying he had tapes? My head hurts.

Ummm.. because Obama was probably too busy, I don't know... running the country and finalizing his last year to worry about the campaign?
Fuck, Trump would blame his own mother if it made him look good.

And about the Senate bill..
"I am very supportive of the Senate #HealthcareBill. Look forward to making it really special! Remember, ObamaCare is dead."
He said this about the House bill in the Rose Garden and then called it "mean". From what Inhave read this bill is even meaner.

Mexico is ranked at 22nd according to this Global Peace index with the US in 50th place. Close enough, right? There's a two there! Two twos in fact! Proof that they are second! Twenty second....second...maybe he had to edit out a few letters to get it down to 140 characters so he removed t-w-e-n-t-y?

Mexico is ranked at 22nd according to this Global Peace index with the US in 50th place. Mexico is less dangerous than Russia, according to this list. And yet Trump isn't worried about Russia. Hmmm.

From Times Reporter Kurt Eichenwald...
"Remember: Only ppl who unquestionably benefit under GOP health care bill are the types paying 4 professional croquet lessons at Mar-a-Lago."
It came out that Mar-a-Lago has a croquet pro and an assistant croquet pro.

From Politico..
"Rattled by the shooting, House Republicans consider a sharp increase in spending for security measures politi.co/2rZYftI"
Of course they do. But to pay for it does that mean there will be smaller tax cuts for corporations and the rich? Or make additional cuts to social programs that actually help people. My guess the latter way is the way they will pay for it.
Here is a random tweet to the one above from Politico.
Kids get shot at schools? Nothing can be done.
Congressman gets shot on a baseball field?"

The Hill
"Trump’s job promises crash into reality as auto industry lays off thousands: hill.cm/xiR8zd2"
Add to that the thousands laid off in retail.
That's ok they can all move to coal mining towns and get jobs working in the coal minds now that trump is saving the industry.

From Zeke Miller - Washington Post
"White House frustration grows with Tillerson over jobs for Trump allies"
I wonder if they are qualified? In any case I imagine it can't easy to fine "payback for support" jobs when the State Department is being gutted.

From ProPublica.... "White House Warns Reporters Not to Report on Instructions About Not Reporting on Today's Press Conference" "The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth." George Orwell, 1984 Orwell was a freaking Prophet. I swear it's like watching the Pigs take over the farm. So the pigs won the first battle against the humans for the farm due to Snowball's brilliant military strategies. Then Napoleon turns on Snowball makes crazy shit up about Snowball and drives him from the farm. Any bets on who Trumps 'Snowball' is? And as @lugyg says we are doomed, my fingers are crossed *I* do not end up like Boxer.

Nicholas Bagley....
"Only 38% of Americans know that the GOP plan makes 'major reductions' in Medicaid spending," writes @theplumlinegs.
Its not just the Medicaid expansion for the ACA but to all parts of Medicaid The Republicans are gutting. Which is why we had the sit in at McConnell's office Yesterday. They know because it affects them personally.
