The Senate Republican leadership’s approach to rewriting the American Health Care Act has been so secretive that not only have Democrats condemned them, but many of their fellow Republicans have done likewise.

Of course, nothing can compare to the rage that poured out from the Senate’s most famous capital ‘i’ Independent, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

“It should tell every American, whether you are a Democrat, a Republican or an Independent, whether you’re conservative or progressive. It should tell you something that major, major legislation is being written at this moment, and most Republicans don’t have a clue as to what’s in that legislation, let alone Democrats, let alone the average American,” Sanders declared from the Senate floor.
