I'm just wondering if anyone else has been watching this miniseries. It really shows just how dishonest, and evil, Ailes and the people at FOX were, and still are.
Does anyone here care about Rand Paul blocking funding for 9/11 first responders?
I ask because there were two threads on this yesterday and both got little notice. This is a real issue the affects the lives of real people. Yet most here seemed more interested in the usual partisan bickering.
As liberals/progressives/democrats we are supposed to care about helping people not just about scoring points against the other team.
This is an important bill that will save lives, why is there so little interest in it?
Rand Paul blocks Senate from approving 9/11 victim compensation fund
BY JORDAIN CARNEY
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Wednesday blocked an attempt by Democrats to pass an extension of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund.
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) tried to win the Senate's consent to approve the House-passed bill, which would reauthorize funding until fiscal 2090. The bill cleared the House in a 402-12 vote last week.
But Paul objected, pointing to the country's growing debt and arguing that any new spending should be offset by cuts to other spending.
"It has long been my feeling that we need to address our massive debt in the country," he said. "And therefore any new spending … should be offset by cutting spending that's less valuable. We need to, at the very least, have this debate."

Who is Jason Johnson?
And why is he always attacking Democrats?
He’s on Ari Melber’s show tonight and instead of condemning Trump for being a racist, normalizes by saying ‘he’s not the first racist President we’ve had and not the last racist President’. Johnson then goes on to attack Democrats.
I’ve seen him several times now and he always seems to be attacking Dems.
Happy 50th Anniversary Apollo 11
