Time to start this thread. I'm at the pedi with a sick kids again - the 5th week in a row with at least one of them being sick. I'm at my wits' end and need some good political news to distract me. Think maybe it's time for some more indictments???? Pretty please??

What happened during the last infrastructure week? I feel like there was a big at the time scandal. Or maybe it was just someone leaving/being fired?

just a heads up guys, 4Chan is pushing a narrative that a Steele source was a passenger on the crashed Russian jet. Laurence Tribe even tweeted about it. It's not true, so don't RT it.

Fahrenthold is chasing down the "donated" Presidential salary.

I MISS THEM SO MUCH.
I'm not necessarily a fan of her portrait though. Its just ok. I dont think it captures Michelles personality well.

I'm f-ing love Kehinde Wiley. He had an exhibit last year at the VMFA and it was fantastic.

"I have enough political problems without you trying to make me look like Napoleon." Also he had a lot of words about Michelles hotness

5 states have applied for waivers to limit Medicaid coverage for childless adults ranging from 2-5 years. This is part of the "flexibility" the Trump administration/the GOP want to give states. ETA: As far as I can tell, there is no indication that there would be exemptions for people with disabilities or with chronic illnesses. Sooooo he'll be establishing death panels?

This literally makes me feel sick, I am part of a FB Kidney group, that has over 6,000 members from all over the world, a large part, are from the USA, this will kill them. This is where I say thank fucking god I'm Canadian.

I received another email about a new survey. This one on immigration. I wish I hadn't filled it out before seeing the limits news. I could have used that anger. Another survey from the asshole in chief
