“After all, tomorrow is another day.” -- Margaret Mitchell

Trumpism and 2020. The rules are different. Will the Democrats change the way the play? This is an important read regarding Trumpism and 2020. Read it. All of it.

By Republican Standards, Almost Nothing Is Racist.

President Trump's approval ratings in the South have ticked upward, with 54% of voters giving a thumbs-up to the way he's handling his job. But of course it did.

House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler says Robert Mueller's report presents "very substantial evidence" that President Trump is "guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors" — an impeachable offense.

George Nader, Witness in Mueller Probe, Hit With New Charges of Sex Trafficking and Child Pornography.

Americans could be a bigger fake news threat than Russians in the 2020 presidential campaign.

In some states, GOP sees the recall as its way back to power. Democrats say GOP is using recalls in certain Western states as a way to undo regular election results.

Katie Porter isn't part of 'The Squad.' But the freshman House Democrat is stirring up trouble for Trump.

Pre-Crime: Has Minority Report-style Policing Become a Reality? How "pre-crime" can violate privacy, enable racial profiling, and heighten surveillance in poor neighbourhoods. Police are using technology and data to predict behaviour and prevent crime - but are innocent people being targeted? Police in the United States and the United Kingdom are using mathematical algorithms, which rely on data collected from social media, surveillance cameras, and police records, to take what they say are proactive measures against crime. They use software to generate subject lists of people who are at the greatest risk of being party to violence or committing a crime.

Los Angeles police admit in court that it spied on anti-Trump protesters: “Case is one of several across the US of police targeting anti-Trump and anti-fascist groups with monitoring and criminal trials.”

American and Taliban negotiators are thought to be close to a deal that would see the 14,000 American troops remaining in Afghanistan return home. It’s America’s longest war.

Two people have died and hundreds more have become ill in an ongoing outbreak of salmonella linked to backyard chickens, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

A new law in Oregon allows students to take "mental health days" just as they would sick days.

Whether we're aware of it or not, we're closely connected to one another, and we contract the feelings and thoughts of the people around us, almost like a virus. So, even though we all walk through the world thinking of ourselves as individuals, Rapson and Hatfield think that is an illusion. "We're going to slip into being like the company we keep.”

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
