Later, Thom dives further into discussion with Joe Madison on Trump’s cabinet picks, including Breitbart Executive Chairman Steve Bannon, and if it’s time to end the electoral college.

so…trump put in place someone from breitbart* but obama put in almost
everyone citibank wanted…
how do u know if both projections arent wrong…what assumptions were made
for the projections? Is obama care just shifting where the money for
healthcare comes from?need to add the cost of both to see what the US
people are really spending. there needs to be regulation on drugs cost
among other things.
Black crime….a crime that has been committed by a black person?
200 hate crimes is the last week, people protesting in the street, who
benefits, obama and hillary not telling the people to chill and give the
man a chance
konic40 now mofo’s want Obama to stand up and do something GTFOH

its crazy man
WHAT HAPPEN TO GREAT SOCIETY LBJ WANTED
Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton demolished that concept. Would saving
medicare make America great again? Probably.
How can Paul Ryan POSSIBLY reimburse 200 million Americans for the $200
trillion dollars (interest and principal compounded weekly over a 50 year
working career) that they have paid into the Medicare System to ensure
their needs are met after retiring? Our payout check will be about $1
million each for those now retired. Hard to imagine his Republican
extremists will go for that!
US federal govt can’t run out of dollars (MONETARY SOVEREIGNTY). Nothing to
reimburse-federal tax dollars disappear from the money supply as debited
from reserve (checking) accounts when federal taxes are paid. Federal govt.
spends/pays ALL its bills/buys goods & services simply by crediting
accounts (via KEYSTROKES). Yes! The federal govt. can actually spend
WITHOUT taxes or borrowing up to the point of an unacceptable
inflation…however, the federal govt has the tools to prevent an
unacceptable inflation level-that’s one reason why you pay federal taxes!
(Paul Ryan is a 100% liar when he claims Medicare/Medicaid are going
“broke.”)
The FOX so-called news you like to rail on was the least biased of all the
news broadcasters during the last weeks of the election.
You’re a Hillary shill who wouldn’t even touch her many crimes. Knowing
full well that people are locked/have been disappeared for one tiny
fraction of what she has been able to get away with.
thom only supported her because she was the lesser of two evils with
regards to Trump he was and still is a Bernie supporter.The thing is he
tends to be analytical and impartial unlike fox which takes things out of
context and is emotionally driven and biased.he did cover her emails and
the corruption of the DNC.Its just that his shows are 25-50 minutes long
each day so he has to cover alot of topics in such a short amount of time
and he covers numerous topics in each episode

We’re back at DEFCON 5.
Had Hillary won we would not be there.
Lesser of two evils? No
+Altsz had hillary won Bernie sanders and Elisabeth warren would tightly
packed around her to keep her in line
Shane Nolan yep
+jai brown indeed thats the tragic irony of the elction with the fact that
had she had either warren or bernie as her VP running mate instead of Kaine
we would have had the first female president and a progressive in the white
house ensuring Hilary would have kept her promises
Ending Medicare and Social Security will put millions of seniors in poverty
We must be vigilant and stay on top of this. Don’t wait until it is too
late, start writing letters to every legislator you can. We can stop this!!

Now really? Do we want to try to end healthcare to stop being the number
one cause for personal bankruptcy? We all know that Paul Ryan exudes
empathy and compassion for is fellow man! (Forget women and children,
they’re not even in his vocabulary.)
Paul Ryan is a joke.
cathy zhang I hope Trump is to smart to buy his snake oil
you are right
you are right
Obamacare is a joke. The only way to fix medicare is to do national
healthcare
Stop medicare fraud.
specifically in south Miami
I’m afraid that more blacks will be killed by cops, but also by the kkk and
other whites under Trump/Pence.
Trump/Pence is the worst that can happends to America.
Mark my words.
Can’t agree with the middle guy more. Get Ellison in there.
dont let the fool him outright lair lair lair
this is how trump is making america great again
These Republicans are enemies of the people. They want us dead! These
bastards will spend the next 4 years dismantling everything and turning it
over to their corporate friends. They want our tax dollars with nothing in
return. Mafioso thieves!
If Trump is going to drain the swamp he better get rid of Paul Ryan.
Bernie Sanders health care for all is the best and right plan .Every humans
have right to have good Healthcare .
