The underlying harm is clear and I'm generally inclined to blame the SC for anything, but in this case a political coalition for full legalization came together with startling speed. Kentucky politicians from both sides of the aisle were *competing* to take credit for it.
Not so much now.

There are studies coming out that link the state legalization of online sports books to a spike in domestic violence. Of course this was a foreseeable outcome of the 2018 Supreme Court decision that made this insidious wealth extraction engine possible.

This Day in Labor History: November 22, 1909. Approximately 20,000 garment workers in New York City went on strike against the horrendous conditions of their sweatshops. This strike, known as the Uprising of the 20,000, was the largest strike led by women in American history to that time!!!

Remember that time New York elected a Muslim mayor and MAGA shit their pants saying Sharia law was coming to NYC, and then like a week later Trump gave F-35's to Saudi Arabia, the capital of Wahabbi fundamentalist Islam, where 17 of 19 9/11 hijackers were citizens? Just to open Trump Tower Riyadh?

The executive has encouraged the legislature to compel the executive to release files the executive holds and has chosen not to release despite calls from legislators. It's unclear whether the executive will veto the legislature's bill, and whether the legislature will over-ride the executive's veto

Remember, in that vein, “this is the […]
