And another day of backroom deals, quiet confirmations, and no family reunifications comes to a close:
“Well maybe I'm the faggot America. I'm not a part of a redneck agenda. Now everybody do the propaganda. And sing along to the age of paranoia.” -- Green Day
White House doesn’t deny report Trump made secret deal with Kennedy over retirement, replacement. The report was that Kennedy made a backroom deal with Trump that he’d retire now if Trump nominated Kavanaugh (one of Kennedy’s former clerks) for the position. The whole thing has sounded shaky from the start. If true, then wouldn’t that be bribery by the President of the United States?
Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court Nomination is bad news for an open internet. His history reveals a judge who is more sympathetic to the handful of companies that control the internet—and to the government agencies that sometimes use it to surveil—than to the hundreds of millions of Americans who use it.
Kavanaugh’s track record on climate change and the environment is worrisome.
This week, Republicans are trying to quietly confirm the man who could end up leading the Russia investigation if Trump fires Rosenstein. He has virtually no criminal law experience but has worked for a bank with ties to Putin. Keep in mind that in one year, the Mueller investigation has resulted in 23 indictments, 5 guilty pleas, and 1 prison sentence. The current form of Republicanism is a mental disorder.
The Trump administration falls short on its first family reunification deadline. Shocker, I know.
The Trump administration is once again slashing funding for a program that helps Americans sign up for the Affordable Care Act.
Since NATO countries agreed to boost defense spending in 2014, the U.S. has cut back and other countries have increased their commitments. But most still fall short of the target level of 2% of gross domestic product.
Trump Pardons Oregon Ranchers Who Inspired the Federal Wildlife Refuge Standoff in 2016. Because pardoning white, American terrorists is part of his agenda?
Former Gen. Michael Flynn has joined a consulting firm as he awaits sentencing after pleading guilty to lying to the FBI. Because these are the times we’re living in.
The NFL Players Association has filed a grievance challenging the league's new national anthem policy.
Protesters Follow Up Weekend of Protests With Another Weekend of Protests.
“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.” -- Mark Twain
Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.
Until next time, my friends. Good night.
