The cruelty of the BBB is jaw-dropping. If my GOP congressman sends me one more slavering email in which he pats himself on the back yet again for voting for it, I expect to discover new combinations of expletives.

Yes, it looks like everything is coming down to individual philanthropy. But on the good side, we’re all getting schooled on the use of expletives, thanks to our great orange commander in chief!
