Campus Question – July 25, 2017

Posted by | Jul 25, 2017 | |

Tonight’s question, greetings, and banter here. (More) Today Senate Republicans voted to begin debate on … some bill with “health care” in its title. In fact they don’t know which bill they’ll vote on later: the House Wealthcare Act, the Senate Wealthcare Act, a repeal-only bill, or a new “skinny” bill that repeals only the ACA’s individual and employer mandates and the medical device tax and leaves the rest worked out in a House-Senate conference committee. Will the GOP ultimately pass Something They Can Call Repealing Obamacare? +++++ Today on Campus Mixed Nuts – The God-King vs. Expertise +++++...

Tonight’s question, greetings, and banter here. (More) Today the God-King lashed out at the Klanmaster General for not investigating Hillary Clinton and reportedly discussed appointing Rudy Giuliani to replace Sessions, although Giuliani immediately rejected the idea and said Sessions was right to recuse himself from the Russia investigation. Also, the Washington Monthly’s Martin Longman reports that the God-King may also be trying to force Exxonosaurus Rex out of the State Department and House Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows wants to fire most of the CBO staff and direct the agency to “aggregate” budget evaluations from right-wing think tanks.

Yesterday Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer unveiled Democrats’ new slogan and what it means for the party and the American people.

And as he’s a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, I also urged him to support their investigation of Russia’s meddling in the 2016 elections by publicly denouncing any effort to undermine special counsel Robert Mueller or pardon the God-King’s aides and family. I also called my U.S. House rep and urged him to support impeachment – for obstruction of justice – if the God-King interfered with Mueller’s...
