the daily caller quotes a source saying mitch mcconnell plans to vote against the deal. the office has not confirmed that report. frankly it would be surprising if he did support it given what he said about the caps when he negotiated the government. at least a half dozen others have lined up publicly against the deal. >> he has led to make a compromise that sells out what actually needs to be done. >> it's not a good deal. we are trading immediate cuts for the promise of cuts later. >> marco rubio said this last night. your deal is going to make it harder for americans to achieve the american dream. what will you say to marco? >> read the deal and get back to me. >> house republicans led by ryan argue it's easier for republicans in the senate to be against it because they are in the minority and don't have the responsibility of governing. speaking of senate republicans, there has been another issue going on all night. they have been engaged in it overnight. a talk fest on the floor. they have been bandinging to to get revenge on harry reid who has been trying to wrap up

the daily caller reports that a series of bigoted messages about women, blacks and transgendered wereby the bias incident response team. it's the victims doing the victimizing. it's the bigot. how can creating false hate crimes not be hate crimes themselves? after all, the violators' intent is to help themselves by hurting others, right? sadly, the median academics don't mind these deeds. it doesn't matter if that hate crime is fake because a real one just like it has to be happening somewhere else. it's the assumption that drives all perceived injustice. we don't need facts, just feelings, to find faults. sadly, this fetish for divisiveness makes for an environment that engages in and rewards the resentful. because hate is in short supply, the resentful have to create it it. it's hate karaoke with singers belt out the hit. fabrication is air livelihood. the scary part in 20 years, they'll be the historians writing about this era as if all of their lives were true. >> i'll tell you, these liberal academic institutions, man, every one of them just corroding america, corrupting it. i me
