Unless a scriptwriter is proposing to explain why James Bond is 90 years old but doesn’t look it, I can’t see why they should concern themself with continuity at this late date.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.
