    That would not be known, until after the imports started coming in.
    After the R trade deal was put into law.

    I think that it is unfair that the democratic party news outlets are allowed to charge millions for political ads. We should pass a law that states that MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN etc, can only charge .38 per minute per ad. Its only fair, so what if they lose money, won't someone think of the children?

    See how that works, dems?

    Most Republicans would defend this even as they die due to lack of access to medical care....at least on the internet.

    What was the legitimate, compelling reason for the rider amendment pertaining to the FISC?

    democrats bypassed this, they forced the cdc to authorize the government paying for testing and treatment

    let's see republicans try to block that

    Why would we care if the extremely conservative MSM loses money? After all, they did bust their butts to put Trump in office. Serves them right.

    It sounds like a good plan to me. If any candidate can get cheap airtime, the playing field is leveled. Bring it on. You've essentially proposed a new version of the Fairness Doctrine.

    The Republicans screw things up because they don't care.
