America will prevail Judge Mark Wolf is 78 years old, and has served on the federal bench since 1985.

History will recall that a hideous man took power, and cowardice bloomed a thousand rotten sycophants. Yet, it will also recall that they failed in their overreach and malice.

We will make it through. Have no doubt about that.

Rumor has it Trump wants the new Washington Commanders stadium named after him.

I dunno about you, but Pedophile Stadium has an odd ring to it.

Offs, they're blaming ACA for rising health care costs - not the fleecing of Americans by the for profit insurance companies, hospitals, etc etc.

Socialism: The community coming together to help people who are hungry.
Capitalism: Elected oligarchs price gouging and starving people while they laugh at us from Gatsby parties.

The government forcing employees to mouth its partisan messages always seemed like more of a constitutional violation rather than (just) a Hatch Act violation

Hold on - not as bad as it seems. Justice Jackson issued the hold so Appeals court can rule, and appeals court expected to rule against trump. Its a procedural technicality

Years ago (mid 60s), maybe still I don't know, staff was working for the privilage of being on the Hill. If they were one of the mostly young Ivy leagers, they could afford to cash in later. The irony was that some of the most liberal Dems paid the least.

Remember when Republicans drew Virginia's Congressional map so Black people were packed into one district and said we should be grateful they gave our community this district. NOW they can have one district and see how much they love it.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Writing about Elon Muskโ€™s pay package without leading with this is like profiling John Wayne Gacyโ€™s booming party clown career.

Attention has (justly) gone to the abuses in Chicago but the assaults in Los Angeles never ended. The military left but they were guarding building. DHS paramilitaries remain active in L.A. it's bad.

In the Canadian war cemetery at Ravenna in Italy there are so many Canadian and Sikh graves. The Sikhs were side by side with the Canadians in the brutal battles through Italy.
They have served with valour in our armed forces.

This is a HUGE get. She has an incredible background in regulating corporate corruption and antitrust.

Corporate landlords should be quaking right about now.
