Yes, yes, yes. Yada, yada, yes.
This story blames the press, saying “Many of those concerns are fueled by the press.”
Sorry, but blowing these concerns off with words and phrases like, “long established” and “upheld by the Supreme Court...” is not all that comforting.
We have a Court now hanging on a thread (as Roberts proved) and reams of actions full of unchecked presidential over reach and end runs around a lazy Congress who admires it’s purse but won’t even pretend to cut it’s purse strings.
All this to say, that when Jeff Sessions of Alabama sets his hair on fire over something then that is an event that fuels my concern.
Sell Jeff Sessions, and I am sold. Meanwhile, this dog of an agreement needs to slow down, not speed up, until those voting on it are not so critically conflicted about what the hell they are voting for and themselves better understand the meaning of the vote.
The Hill is only one example of quotes full confusion among the members of the House and the Senate.
Those concerns should be enough reason to stop this thing. Why should the American people have to be terrififed of their government?
This is not a once-in-a-lifetime shot, put it on a back burner until the people can accept it. I hate the false urgency this Congress attaches to every damn piece of legislation that comes down the pike. It's only because they know it's crap and, like Obamacare, if they don't hurry and shove it down our throats, it may not fly.

Couldn’t have said it better. Plus anything in secret = something nefarious and unconstitutional is headed our way.
