The Washington Examiner -

BOLD PAC, the political arm of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, chartered a 737 for members, their families, and chiefs of staff to attend the weekend. The memo said the weather will be a balmy 80 degrees. The dress code is “resort casual.” This year’s winter retreat promises to be our most widely attended yet with over 220 guests, including 39 Members of Congress and CHC BOLD PAC supporters expected to attend and participate!”
The event is taking place in a seaside resort where rooms go for $429 a night. Food is being provided...Some 109 lobbyists and corporate executives are named in the memo, a rate of 3.6 lobbyists for every member. They include those from several big K Street firms, R.J. Reynolds, Facebook, Comcast, Amazon, PhRMA, Microsoft, Intel, Verizon, and unions such as the National Education Association.

Anthony Brindisi of New York

Who did not support Nancy for speaker. There appears to be a fission in the Dem party the media is covering up.

They listened to one another and now both have a good understanding of what the other wants.

Didn't they know before? Trump wants $5.7 billion and the Democrats want $1.3 billion. What's changed?
