Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time:
John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team.
(Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)

Let me see if I've got this right. The team of lawyers who stole an election in Florida, and gave W the presidency, are now the Scotus team at the center of the GOP theft of our democracy.

DHS SAVE database has long and documented history of producing false positives of non-citizens voting, leading to sensational headlines of alleged voter fraud that turn out to be untrue on closer inspection. In St. Louis County, MO, for example at least 81% of the names flagged were incorrect
Thanks to SCOTUS GOP-appointed majority (same ones who attended Trump's state dinner last night), Trump admin will use faulty & inaccurate data to wrongly label eligible voters non-citizens & pressure states to remove them from rolls. Sets a chilling precedent www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Supreme Court allows Trump to use flawed database to vet voter citizenship
While the impact on the midterms might be minimal, Justice Jackson warns some eligible voters could be disenfranchised.

The solidarity of news organizations in support of CNN, MS NOW & Politico has been encouraging. But how about that same solidarity when Trump abuses a journalist with comments of piggie or ugly or whatever? That means sticking up for your peers & even walking out if this abuser refuses to apologize.

This is so important and should have happened last year when the White House banned the AP from the pool because it still uses “Gulf of America”
BREAKING: TV pool will not be providing coverage of presidential events until further notice b/c of CNN's ban, pool chair and FOX News Washington Bureau Chief Bryan Boughton said.
It's effectively a boycott by the fellow members — ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX:

Quite a week for Trump and the Kennedy Center:

- he twice said he’d refuse to help unless his name is added
- said building could be ‘ripped down’

Trump says Kennedy Center could be ‘ripped down,’ still wants his name added
The president was also seen through the windows of Air Force One examining a large printout about the Kennedy Center being “demolished.”

Workers’ healthcare costs are expected to rise by 8.2% on average next year. That’s the sharpest increase in over 20 years.
Meanwhile, Medicare for All is supported by 65% of voters — including 71% of independents and 49% of Republicans.
Is it any wonder why?
