Trump Winning.

Forums:

Packing the courts and shoving this tax "reform" down America's bung hole.   Bend over America and forget the lube.  A new day has dawned.

Indeed. It's interesting how every time he ramps up the crazy on Twitter, something important is actually happening.

World aflame.

When the chickens come home to roost it might get loud. 

Lets see what sticks between the 2 bills ....Net neutrality next Then the pedophile gets elected .Then they start the new year gutting social security and Medicare and any other thing they can get money from to stick in their pockets .

Not quite a done deal yet, although prob. nothing will stop it at this point. Some provisions won't be settled until after the joint work sessions.

Our only hope is that the Dems can flip Congress next year and impeach before Donnie starts a war or has to replace a Supreme.

Pretty slim hope.

Dec. 8 Obama medical marijuana protections expire, Beauregard with stomp if not renewed.  Sessions has also given a couple of interviews inplying he will begin prosecuting recreational under federal law in the new year.

double poast

Corporate cash holdings exceed two trillion so naturally they need that tax cut.

A democratic amendment to deny tax cut going to corporate shareholders, an attempt to at least preserve the illusion of "trickle-down", was voted against by every GOP senator.

Like a bad movie.

A really, really, bad movie. 

Attacking our public lands and protections for our land, air, and water. What a nightmare.

I am sickened by their lack of regard for the people. We are the people, getting a knife in the gut at every turn. WE are the people!

Sad.

So sad. (Ziegler is great!)

>>>I am sickened by their lack of regard for the people. We are the people, getting a knife in the gut at every turn.

Judit, wait til you see the way they "fix" Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. The poor and needy will be getting a royal screw job. Heartless. 

OK, off to the anti-Trump rally in SLC.

Thanks for showing up at the rally, Slick.

Looks like it'll take Mueller to drain the swamp....    then again, Obama came in and immediately abandoned many liberal principles in favor of being a corporatist!  The top ten Obama proposals (Affordable care act, ex) were all republican plans.  Of course, making them fight against their own ideas was a brilliant political strategy, but made me feel about as represented as having monsanto ass hats run the FDA, something common with all the recent presidents...

woe to the republic...   

What Mark said. Trump twitter account is just a big distraction. 

This tax cut was all about getting that sweaty wad of cash from the Koch brothers. All that campaign cash for 2018 election means the House remains gerrymandered in republican control through 2030

Incumbent + Lots of cash + Victory most of the time

Thanks, Nugs. Now we all woke. 

its the "fuck you pay me, more" bill.

congrats thom.

math problems...

>..McConnell’s mistake has two big implications. First and foremost, it means the Senate will almost certainly have to vote on a tax bill again before one goes into law. Previously, it looked as though Paul Ryan had enough votes in the House to pass the Senate bill as is. This took pressure off the party’s conference committee (the House and Senate leaders tasked with reconciling each chamber’s bills). Worst-case scenario, the House could just rubber-stamp the Senate’s work. Now, that option is deeply undesirable. It remains overwhelmingly likely that Republicans will pass a giant tax cut. But their task is now a bit more difficult...
