The next Democratic administration should expand the court.

There’s no other way to redeem SCOTUS at this point.

Yesterday was the last day to file for the Democratic Primary.
Taylor was carved into 2 congressional districts. I am now in CD17. Went from clueless Congressman John Carter to petty Pete Sessions. Ugh!

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

It is widely cited that a Muzak version of The Beatles' "All My Loving" was playing at Roosevelt Hospital when he was pronounced dead, though he was likely already gone. TV producer Alan Weiss witnessed this, noting the song ended and then screams followed.

The last song John Lennon worked on in the studio before his death on Dec. 8, 1980 was Yoko Ono's "Walking on Thin Ice", where he played guitar and produced. He was clutching a mix of it when he was shot outside the Dakota.

"Walking on Thin Ice" has become a cult dance floor classic.

On Aug 24, 1869, Ohio Rep. John Bingham, principal framer of the 14th amendment, gave a remarkable speech on “Equal Rights-Impartial Suffrage,” in which he said of those who sought to reject the principal of birthright citizenship, “no greater political atrocity than this can possibly be committed.”

"Love Train" by the O'Jays is considered one of the first disco songs. It was the O'Jays' first and only #1 record on the US Billboard chart. It's one of those songs that puts a smile on your face as you get on board and join in the "love train"....

On Dec. 6, 1904, Theodore Roosevelt articulated his "Corollary" to the Monroe Doctrine, stating the U.S. would only intervene in the Western Hemisphere.

Yesterday, Trump articulated his National Security Strategy reframing the US global commitments. It pivots back to the Monroe Doctrine.
