Not enough people are talking about this:
Today, the Senate has one last chance to extend the ACA tax credits before they expire.
I’ll be voting to prevent health insurance premiums from more than doubling for millions of Americans. Every Republican senator should do the same.

Yesterday’s Pentagon “press” briefing was obviously absurd, but it was emblematic of a larger truth:
For Team Trump, this was the platonic ideal of how journalism should work: conservative ideologues asking conservative questions to a conservative spokesperson. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

The simple reason the latest Pentagon ‘press’ briefing was so ridiculous
Conservative activists asking a conservative spokesperson conservative questions — for Team Trump, it was the platonic ideal of how journalism should work.

Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."
