Somebody disrespects our flag . To say, get that son of a off the field. I have a daughter. I do whatever i have to do to make sure she can look at her dad and be, like, hey, he tried to make a change. It was divisive. For him to use this platform to divide us more is not something i can stand for. If youre a multimillionaire who feels oppressed, you need a therapist, not a publicity stunt. They can do the free speech on their own time. He should apologize. Theyre not sobs. Theyre thoughtful, smart guys. The latest push to overhaul obamacare may be in Critical Condition again. Can only afford to lose two, and they already have. It is difficult for me to envision a scenario where i would end up voting for this bill. Republicans are attempting to sweeten the deal, offering a lastminute change to shift money in the bill to alaska and
maine. Politico reported that kushner has been in the white house and used a personal email account. There were fewer than 100 emails sent to this personal a
Here. And the real problem is donald trump is not the closer. He cant call these people up and say, hey, ive done so much for you, you need to vote for this for me. This is not going to sway senate republicans. Darlene, a lot of the opposition in the bill isnt something that the sweeteners will necessarily be able to fix. A lit more money here or there to alaska or maine. The critique is more fundamental from Susan Collins. So how does senator graham and cassidy get over the hurdle . Thats a good question. You mentioned Susan Collins and rand paul who is always for repeal and his opposition to this bill now is based on the fact that it does not entirely repeal obamacare.

Thats a closed session but its significant for several reasons. First, you mentioned hes the president s personal lawyer. Hes known him for years, they go back in terms of business dealings. This is a person whos been in a lot of private, personal and confidential conversations with the president so it will be very, very interesting to see what kind of information hes going to be able to reveal. And then of course its a sign of a potential escalation or widening in the russia probe given there have been other significant interviews.

Thats the justification for raising the lowest tax rate from 10 to 12 that a whole lot of people arent actually going to pay for. The plan also calls for the elimination of the socalled marriage penalty. Raising the tax credit for a child under 17 by a yet to be specified amount. And look for a new 500 tax credit for nonchild dependents. That replaces the idea that you can actually otherwise claim nonchild dependents. In addition, the plan calls for repealing the estate tax. What a lot of republicans call the death tax. This benefits generally speaking the wealthy. It also repeals the Alternative Minimum Tax. At lot of you might say i pay the Alternative Minimum Tax.
