Marc Elias joined Symone Sanders, Michael Steele and Alicia Menendez on The Weeknight to discuss the arrest of a New York City official and Democratic mayoral candidate, as well as the status of Trump’s federalization of the California National Guard in the courts. -
Welcome to “Trump’s Beautiful Disaster,” a pop-up newsletter about the Republican tax and spending bill, one of the most consequential pieces of legislation in a generation.Sign up for the newsletterto get it in your in-box.
As we at the Prospect have reported, while the Senate’s version of the Republican budget reconciliation bill was widely expected to be more moderate than the House one, when it comes to health care it is more extreme. This came as a surprise to many Republicans, some of whom now want changes. And they all are highlighting the same area of concern. It would be “potentially really bad for rural hospitals,” Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) told The Wall Street Journal. It’s “going to hurt our rural hospitals and hurt them in a big way,” said Sen. Jim Justice (R-WV). Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) expressed “concerns about the effect on rural hospitals in her state.” …
… Taking nearly $1 trillion out of the health system will magnify that problem across the country. And Medicaid cuts that create more uninsured patients, along with the creation of potentially millions of uninsured through Affordable Care Act changes, are terrible for hospitals. According to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, uncompensated care would increase by $204 billion over the next decade if the House version of the bill passed; remember, the Senate bill is even worse. Much of that burden would be thrown onto already shaky hospitals. …
“There’s no escaping this,” Lawson said. “The health system is super-complex. You can’t do something in one side and expect it’ll have no effect in the other.”
Tell that to a bunch of vandal who are out to damage as much as they can.
greenhammerxxx tell me what can I do about it, in a society that is beyond learning and all about facades and self gratification, or simply survival?
There is no commentary on trump dragging americas into another war with Democrat support that will result in mass death , radiation fallout and a global depression risking WW3 to keep being and no one else to be - the top dog
What a relief, finally, for the ruling elite to not have to make up lies about weapons of mass destruction and just say what they feel all along, “We don’t care.”
It may explain the Democrat’s role in the coming to power of Trump by the demobilization of their own base and in a horrific sense, as part of the desperation of the ruling class (that doesn’t want to have to rationally explain its actions) and in line with its many attacks of a preemptive character, there is the very real possibility of the use of “tactical” nuclear weapons on Iran this very weekend.
If and when that happens, it would not be the first time the Democratic Party has used the Republican Party as a surrogate to do what the Democrats wish to do all along
That’s not my business. I don’t know what the board does and don’t check with them about politics. Where did you get this? What board member are you talking about?
I didn’t post about the bombing because this is not a news site. I’m not here to repeat headlines. When I have something of substance to say about it, I will. My lack of posting, on this or anything, is not a comment on how much I care about it
Yeah, it would be good to know if you (greenhammerxxx) said that simply for effect,
or whether you feel honor bound to be honest, and have information that we don’t.

If you want to talk politics, go ahead. What I said is, this isn’t a site that has reporters listing the daily goings on. If some story is missed, it doesn’t mean anything.
You said you posted because no one else did. There are a billion other things we didn’t post. It means nothing about us, the board, or any thought we might have.
