Today the Republicans in Congress voted to allow health insurance premiums to spike, making it unaffordable for millions of Americans. This does NOT take into account the $1T(yes, that is a T) in Medicaid cuts that won't go into effect until after the midterms. And they have no plan.

All the threats from Trump and his henchmen to Republican state senators in Indiana failed. Mid-decade gerrymandering rejected. This is no small thing. Maybe some other Republicans will finally start to stand up to the Mob Boss.

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.
