      • Geezer, you know the slowed rate of increase mem is coming out of the administration. It's spin. While it's not factually incorrect, it does not change what is happening to Medicaid in the Senate version of their HC Bill.
        Well, if it is not factually incorrect, then it is factually correct.

        What you are lamenting derives from the almost-doubling of federal funding for Medicaid in the 2017-18 fiscal year under the ACA. That absurd increase derived, as I said, from the need to "score" the 2009-2019 ACA as close to budget neutral. The Dems just backloaded the cost of the bill. Further, I remember a lot of discussion about whether Michigan should accept further Medicaid funding under the ACA when we knew that the federal funding was going to be phased out. There is not much unplanned-for or devious cost-shifting in the Senate bill. It simply follows what would have happened under the ACA.

        • NPR tweeted, 140 characters at a time, the Declaration of Independence for the 4th of July. The Trumpanzees came out of the woodwork critical that NPR was showing anti-Trump bias. WTF?



          If this is the mental state of his supporters, then perhaps we're little more than a North Korea on steroids. All Hail Supreme Leader!!

          • I think we knew the mental state of supporters for a year or so now. This is just more of it. Loons.

                • Trump's war on the Administrative State is starting to provide dividends, the US delegation forgot to book hotel tooms for the G20 summit.

                  • Longtime FoxNews/Fox Business personality Charles Payne taken off the air after sexual harassment allegations emerge. Already admits to having an affair with his accuser. The accuser (from other sources) is reportedly Scottie Nell Hughes, a gushing Trump supporter who appears now and then on CNN (after being dropped by Fox).

                    Fox Business Network host Charles Payne has been suspended while 21st Century Fox investigates sexual harassment allegations made against him, the company confirmed Thursday night.

                    • I don't know what to make of this (see tweet below). There's nothing about "14 words" in the article. Furthermore, and I did not know this, but the phrase "14 words" is a reference to a very popular white supremacist/neo-nazi slogan. So either Palin is a conscious white supremacist or she's absorbed the language from those around her without really knowing what it means

                      14 Words is a reference to the popular white supremacist slogan: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."

                      • You never know with Palin, but I doubt it was an intentional tip of the hat to the skinheads of the world. Amazed she still gets air time.

                        • Trump says he asked Putin TWICE if Russia did any hacking or meddling in the Election (a tremendous electoral victory for Trump I might add) and Putin said NO.

                          Good enough for me. Fire Moeller, tell Congress to fuck off, and let's move on. Nothing to see here.
