Trump's America, March 2017: Using His Inside VOICE

did anyone read the breitbart article that set this off? I can't bring myself to.

i will when i have a sec. i'm still trying to decide which of these coming bills is the going to make america the greatest

1. HR 861 Terminate the Environmental Protection Agency
2. HR 610 Vouchers for Public Education
3. HR 899 Terminate the Department of Education
4. HJR 69 Repeal Rule Protecting Wildlife
5. HR 370 Repeal Affordable Care Act
6. HR 354 Defund Planned Parenthood
7. HR 785 National Right to Work (this one ends unions)
8. HR 83 Mobilizing Against Sanctuary Cities Bill
9. HR 147 Criminalizing Abortion ("Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act")
10. HR 808 Sanctions against Iran

gosh, if only the Dems weren't so focused on Russian stuff, I'm sure they would be able to stop those from passing the House

How would they go about doing that?

i have heard about a thing where legislators hide bills in a secret room, do they have any secret rooms

it's near the panic room they hide from their constituents in

was that the meticulously worked out replacement for the ACA a few days ago?
That nobody was allowed to see.

It's in the cloak room. Which is, I hope, down the hall from the dagger room.

New muslim ban comin on monday! Maybe

i love that supposedly the new ACA = just Obamacare Lite AND still has an individual mandate! lolz

individual mandate with gutted govt assistance and unknown penalties woop woop

Means it's gonna piss the Rand Pauls off

They should just call it the Unaffordable Care Act

The "Health--Who Cares?" Act

Nobamacare

I hate all Republicans i have decided.

Well, think we've established that healthcare is communism

why are these people so mean?

Victims of modernity and/or late-capitalism, mixed with a lot of ressentiment, and more than a few other factors

The Tyranny of Hope

That flyer's a great example for if anybody ever wanted to know what a "metonymy" is

GOP 2017 = people that think Scrooge is the hero of ACC

every time i hear a republican talk i become increasingly convinced that the human race has no future.

I guess we can now expect a roll back of federal regulations on vehicle pollution and a dismantling of the Clean Power Plan.

According to the NYT, “the E.P.A. will also begin legal proceedings to revoke a waiver for California that was allowing the state to enforce the tougher tailpipe standards for its drivers.” S. William Becker, the executive director of the National Association of Clean Air Agencies, predicted that “if this administration goes after the California waiver, there will be an all-out brawl between Trump and California and the other states that will defend its program.”

I realize regulation has been a bad word for years but like their approach to terrorism = keep em out by any means necessary 1 terror death is too many and w/ everything else it's "the market will respond" no natter how many folk have to oeace out first

Peace

I kinda feel like "rolling explaining conservatism" could be its own thread

i think it would fit in nicely in rolling philosophy, given how important explaining evil is in philosophy

It's a good idea for a thread of its own.

why is everyone being so mean to poor carter page?

yeah.

something strange is afoot.

how many Russian diplomats have died in the past few months?

4, I gather.

Corey, meanwhile, has some things to claim

https://twitter.com/yashar/status/838215994149593089

I saw somewhere the count was closer to 8

I think I saw 6 but that it was 4 since the start of the year.

is anyone besides TPM reporting Oronov's death?

Yeah, looks like 7-8 in the past 4 months from a quick google scan.

poor baby

"Nobody has seen him that upset," one source said.

Trump continuing his tradition of being unable to look ridiculously suspicious.
