Don't forget the part about using deductions to create a legal framework establishing unborn babies' legal rights hint hint.

Is this the new redirect away from the fact the middle class (outside of Cali) actually does get a tax cut?

I'd say reverse. The tax cut is a distractiin away from items like this and a few others.

Also, it won't survive the Byrd Rule. That's not an opinion. The bill that eventually gets voted on in the senate will have to be drastically changed, and that extra money won't come from additional taxing of the rich.

Do legislative bills lay out how the funding works in the pursuant appropriation bills, or are those their own animals that are basically drafted from square one?

Most people didn't think ANYTHING was gonna come of this, until very recently.

It's an opinion until the final bill is written and voted on. IIRC, I read that W's tax cuts subverted that rule so there are options.


Edit: Ugh, the absence of the state/local income tax deduction is going to hit me pretty hard.

It's back. Be cool. Hacked? Or was the Donna/Hilldog/DNC story simply too much for him?

I'm seeing an old man wrestling match between Donny and one of his lawyers. Lawyer wins first round; deactivates Twitter. SS reclaims phone. Kelly reactivates Twitter after Donny tries for a bit.

I’m now imagining him claiming his Twitter was hacked by Muslims the past two years and he had no control over anything they posted.

I can't wait to read the part where he spirals his answers into unwittingly admitting this.

I bet a Frost/Nixon-style movie about Carter Page's testimony would have a chance at winning best comedy.

Everyone in the picture would be played by a somber actor gunning for best supporting player, and Carter Page would be played by Roger Rabbit.

The lives of all involved in the Russia matter changed drastically on Monday. Some will get suspicious as to who they talk to; some will lose sleep over emails or phone calls they have made. Spouses will warn them not to be the last person to not cooperate. So will blustering attorneys, who will exclaim publicly their clients are innocent while offering them to the authorities as federal witnesses in exchange for time.

Even made Mafia members now routinely cooperate in criminal cases; everyone looks out for themselves. Washington is no different. Any remaining conspirators in the Russia collusion investigation will end up cooperating under pressure. If they’re resistant, investigators can promise them a Rule 35 appearance, which is when investigators testify on behalf of a convict—due to their cooperation—to help them get released early. Just that promise, alone, might be all a witness needs to provide evidence that could bring down a president.

Joe Navarro is a former FBI special agent and counterintelligence supervisor.

One new report that says Sessions told people they needed to not talk about Popo's offers, back during the campaign. Another says Trump met with and heard Popo out himself.

Ken Burns and Oliver Stone are going to have to team up for a 10 DVD set of this one

I am pretty cynical about stuff at this point and I hope I am wrong, but something tells my by DVD #4 or #5, Muller gets fired; and that's when the story turns really wacky
