We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court.
That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits.
Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.
Pssst. . . . . friends. Look at what I got to do.

Oil and charcoal on canvas, abstract cubist bodies piled together. Description from MOMA site: "With its varying degrees of finish—you can see traces of charcoal and sections of blank canvas—and vast network of undulating lines and geometric shapes, Picasso seems to have obscured legibility in favor of generating a rhythmic abstraction. As if questioning the ability of painting to represent war, he created a shifting, spectral vision."
Picasso's depiction of a fascist massacre, a murdered family unceremoniously tangled together under a dining table.
[Pablo Picasso, The Charnel House, 1944-45]

I would say we should remember the "Donald the Dove" pundits who pitched him as some anti-war candidate the same way we remember the idiots who helped build up support for the Iraq War, but the latter are still employed and often also the former.

This is a serious and seriously reported sounding of the shallowness and hollowness of the Trump war machine’s pretexts for attacking Iran.
