Today the GOP justices on the Supreme Court endorsed migrants being sold into slavery.

They'll claim otherwise, but that's the reality — today's decision permits Trump to send people from countries around the world to any global hellhole that accepts a U.S. financial incentive.

Yeah this isn’t argument! It’s just what the bill does. Not a side effect. It’s just the actual bill.
It’s a routine act of media cowardice to attribute facts to “critics” or “Democrats” instead of just stating them as true. This Politico story shows how GOP Medicaid cuts go far beyond “waste, fraud and abuse,” yet the sentence starts “Democrats have argued …” www.politico.com/live-updates...
