“I think when the night is over, Joe Biden will be the prohibitive favorite to win the Democratic nomination, and quite frankly, if the night ends the way it has begun, I think it is time for us to shut this primary down, it is time for us to cancel the rest of these debates — because you don’t do anything but get yourself in trouble if you continue in this contest when it’s obvious that the numbers will not shake out for you,” Jim Clyburn (Sellout in Chief)

A Winter Eden
By Robert Lee Frost
A winter garden in an alder swamp,
Where conies now come out to sun and romp,
As near a paradise as it can be
And not melt snow or start a dormant tree.
It lifts existence on a plane of snow
One level higher than the earth below,
One level nearer heaven overhead,
And last year's berries shining scarlet red.
It lifts a gaunt luxuriating beast
Where he can stretch and hold his highest feat
On some wild apple tree's young tender bark,
What well may prove the year's high girdle mark.
So near to paradise all pairing ends:
Here loveless birds now flock as winter friends,
Content with bud-inspecting. They presume
To say which buds are leaf and which are bloom.
A feather-hammer gives a double knock.
This Eden day is done at two o'clock.
An hour of winter day might seem too short
To make it worth life's while to wake and sport.
Happy Christmas !

What Makes Our New 2020 Democratic Primary Polling Averages Different https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/what-makes-our-new-2020-democratic-primary-polling-averages-different/
"I am truly an honor to be here at the Council on Foreign Relations, which has played such a major role in the world for 98 years. You were founded in the aftermath of World War I and the Senate’s rejection of the Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations, which was a critical moment in history when American rejected a global war—a global role and retreated into isolationism. The rest, unfortunately, is history."Amy Klobuchar

Nine years ago, the Tories and Lib Dems got together and decided that they would go down the road of austerity - a political choice.
A political choice to cut spending to local government, a political choice to freeze welfare spending, a political choice to freeze public sector wages, a political choice to underfund the National Health Service, a political choice to treble university fees, a political choice to impose poverty on the already poorest people in the country.Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn

A few years before this potluck, a disease from shipwrecked French sailors swept through New England and killed most of the Wampanoag. The Pilgrims from the Mayflower essentially set up shop in one of their decimated villages.
While Mann says the Wampanoag likely regarded the English as “uncouth idiots” — who arrives six weeks before winter with no food? — their value derived from the trade goods they brought from Europe.Boston Globe

“I’m the one from the Midwest that has actually won in a statewide race over and over again,” Klobuchar, 59, said, adding that she can bring in voters like those in Kentucky and Virginia who supported Democrats in last week’s election. “Those are the kind of voters I have won. And that’s not true of Mayor Pete. AP That’s just a fact.”Even amid a growing backlash to Big Tech, evoking a no-nonsense startup retains some appeal, with its suggestion of scrappy agility, innovation, and single-minded focus. But at least one candidate takes the idea more literally: Pete Buttigieg, the 37-year-old mayor of South Bend, Indiana, whose campaign has rocketed from underdog to top-tier status seemingly overnight.
“We want to build a campaign that’s a little disruptive, kind of entrepreneurial. Right now, it feels like a startup,” his campaign manager WireButtigieg has run for statewide office once, in 2010, when he was the Democratic nominee for treasurer in the red state of Indiana. He lost to the Republican by more than 400,000 votes, winning about 38%.
He easily won his second term as mayor of South Bend, a community of about 100,000 people, with just over 8,500 ballots cast for him.

he Supreme Court’s conservative majority appeared ready on Tuesday to side with the Trump administration in its efforts to shut down a program protecting about 700,000 young undocumented immigrants known as Dreamers.
The court’s liberal justices probed the administration’s justifications for ending the program, expressing skepticism about its rationales for doing so. But other justices, including President Trump’s two appointees, indicated that they would not second-guess the administration’s reasoning and, in any event, considered its explanations sufficient.

“Immigrant rights are not just a Latino issue, but an African issue, a Korean issue, and an American issue,” explained Bambadjan Bamba, an actor in the made-for-TV movie Black Panther and a Cote D’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) native. That point came through another way: The D.C. demonstration included a march of Asian migrants, wielding a large banner written in Korean.“There are close to 25,000 U.S.-born children who have at least one parent who is a Dreamer,” LCLAA posted on its website. “DACA recipients pay $5.7 billion in federal taxes, and $3.1 billion in state and local taxes, every year.” People's World

The Santa Ana winds of 50 to 70 mph, with isolated gusts of 80 mph, will be the strongest to hit the region in recent memory and sparked urgent preparations for more potential fires and evacuations. They are expected to hit early Wednesday and continue through Thursday.
“The magnitude of the wind gusts really are going to be a concern,” said Daniel Swain, climate scientist with UCLA and the National Center for Atmospheric Research. “The actual winds that people experience really will be quite extreme in a lot of places, really everywhere except for the wind-sheltered parts of downtown L.A. and central L.A.” LATimes

It started off as a joke. Matty Roberts created a Facebook event July 27, called it “Storm Area 51: They Can’t Stop All Of Us,” and scheduled it for September 20. After about three days, the event page took off, with over 2 million Facebook RSVPs and another 1.2 million marked as “interested” in attending before site administrators took it down.Forbes
In Rachel, Little A’Le’Inn owner Connie West said she was sad to hear the Hiko festival didn’t succeed. In a voice hoarse from stress and lack of sleep, she said a noon-to-midnight slate of Alienstock event musical entertainment would continue for the several thousand revellers camping on her property and nearby federal land.
“This is the most fabulous time,” West said. “I’m just so grateful that people came. This is their event as much as it is mine.”Guardian
Art McQuiddy was the editor of the Roswell morning newspaper in July of 1947. He is now 91 years old but he remembers the events around the UFO Crash like it was yesterday. Art tells Jerry the details surrounding the event itself, his first hand experience with the people involved including the military base, the Sheriff's department and what makes this interview so riveting is the fact that McQuiddy would become friends with the commanding officer of the base, William Blanchard, Glenn Dennis, and he saw Walter Haut and Jesse Marcel on a regular basis due to news stories coming from the military base. McQuiddy tells about the slip made by Blanchard after an evening of drinking together. Jerry Pippin Productions

This is all wrong,” said Thunberg, who was visibly emotional as she spoke on a panel at a U.N. climate summit Monday. With tears in her eyes and her face flushed, the 16-year-old activist — who began skipping school in her native Sweden a year ago to protest inaction on climate change — chastised the world leaders who had gathered in New York.
“I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean,” said Thunberg, who traveled for two weeks on a solar-powered sailboat to reach the United States this month. “Yet you all come to us young people for hope. How dare you?”hunberg continued her campaign Monday, as she and 15 other young people filed a legal complaint with the U.N. Committee on the Rights of the Child arguing that major countries — Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany and Turkey — have known about the risks of climate change for decades but have failed to take sufficient action to curb their emissions. The petitioners range in age from 8 to 17 and hail from Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, India, the Marshall Islands, Nigeria, Palau, South Africa, Sweden, Tunisia and the United States.

Snowden says he would come back to the U.S. for trial — but only if he could tell a jury why he leaked the information to journalists. And if he was assured that the jury could see the classified material he leaked — to assess for itself whether he did the right thing.
"You can't have a fair trial about the disclosure of information unless the jury can evaluate whether it was right or wrong to reveal this information," he said. By coming back for only "sentencing," he said, he wouldn't be setting the right example for others who might be in a similar situation.
"No one becomes a whistleblower because they want to," he said. "No one becomes a whistleblower because it has a happy ending." NPR

The American Meteorological Society issued a statement of support for the NWS, writing: “AMS believes the criticism of the Birmingham forecast office is unwarranted; rather they should have been commended for their quick action based on science in clearly communicating the lack of threat to the citizens of Alabama."
The National Weather Service “must maintain standards of scientific integrity,” the inspector general, Peggy E. Gustafson, wrote in a message to NOAA staff members in which she requested documents related to Friday’s statement. The circumstances, she wrote, “call into question the NWS’s processes, scientific independence, and ability to communicate accurate and timely weather warnings and data to the nation in times of national emergency.”NYT

Scott Walker’s 2011 legislation to gut public-employee unions there has had a far greater effect on labor rolls than many people realize. Largely because of that anti-union law, union membership in Wisconsin has fallen at a faster rate over the past decade than in any other state, plunging by 44 percent, or 177,000 workers, since 2008. Between 2008 and 2018, union membership there dropped by 19 percent, or 146,000 workers, to 625,000. Trump won Michigan by just 10,704 votes. Pennsylvania’s unions have lost 182,000 members since 2008, falling by 21 percent to 665,000; Trump won Pennsylvania by 44,292 votes.Walker’s anti-union law, known as Act 10, 135,000 government workers in Wisconsin stopped paying union dues. He said this had cut union revenue by an estimated $135 million a year.Steven Greenhouse

A New Jersey-based pharmaceutical company caused an Oklahoma opioid crisis that led to thousands of deaths, and must pay $572.1 million to fix it, a Cleveland County, Oklahoma, district judge ruled Monday.
Judge Thad Balkman told a packed courtroom that the opioid crisis is “an imminent danger and menace” to Oklahomans, and the state proved that Johnson & Johnson and its subsidiary Janssen launched a misleading marketing campaign that created a public nuisance in Oklahoma.Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter, though, called the verdict “a major victory” for anyone who has lost someone to an overdose.
“Johnson & Johnson will finally be held accountable of thousands of deaths and addiction caused by their activities,” he said. “Throughout the trial, our team proved what we have alleged all along: that the company used pseudo-science and misleading information to downplay Fwd: Media Update # 20the risks of opioids, leading to the worst man-made public nuisance this state and our country has ever seen.” Order of the court https://int.nyt.com/data/documenthelper/1660-oklahoma-opioid-trial-johnson-and-johnson/79f3fe55f5fa1a75bd48/optimized/full.pdf#page=1 Norman Transcript

In a statement sent to Variety, Flowers said in part, “we recently made the decision to pull down several episodes from our main feed when their source material could no longer be found or properly cited.

The Fancy Farm Picnic, hosted by St. Jerome's Catholic Church, is held annually in the town of Fancy Farm, Ky., which will swell far beyond its normal size of 500 residents this weekend. The event usually draws around 10,000 visitors. The Lexington Herald-Leader reports that organizers expect 15,000 attendees this year, still falling short of the record set in 1992, when Bill Clinton and Al Gore drew nearly 20,000 to the event.WP

Debra Katz, who has represented Christine Blasey Ford and other sexual-harassment victims, remains troubled by Franken’s case. She contends, “The allegations levelled against Senator Franken did not warrant his forced expulsion from the Senate, particularly given the context in which most of the behavior occurred, which was in his capacity as a comedian.” She adds, “All offensive behavior should be addressed, but not all offensive behavior warrants the most severe sanction.” Katz sees Franken as a cautionary tale for the #MeToo movement. “To treat all allegations the same is not only inappropriate,” she warns. “It feeds into a backlash narrative that men are vulnerable to even frivolous allegations by women.” the New Yorker Jane Mayer

Biden and Booker were both thrown off by protesters early in the debate. Biden kept mixing up the cost of Medicare-for-all (was it $3 trillion over 10 years, or $30 trillion?). Biden, Harris and Sen. Michael F. Bennet (D-Colo.) kept stumbling over their words, with Biden at one point referring to Booker as “the future president.” Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) at one point had nothing ready to go when she was brought in on a discussion, emitting a painful “um” that drew laughter. And even in Harris’s opening statement, while hailing her ability to prosecute the case against Trump, the senator messed up her talking point, saying she would “prosecute the case of four more years of Donald Trump . . . and against him.” WP

Five years after Mr. Garner’s dying words, “I can’t breathe,” became a rallying cry, Attorney General William P. Barr ordered the case be dropped.Mr. Garner’s mother, Gwen Carr, shifted the pressure to Mayor Bill de Blasio of New York, calling on the city to fire Officer Pantaleo and vowing to fight to hold the officers involved in the arrest accountable.
“We’re not going away, so you can forget that,” Ms. Carr said. “New Yorkers need to come out and flood this city tomorrow.”The Rev. Al Sharpton, who was standing with her, added: “Five years ago, Eric Garner was choked to death; today the federal government choked Lady Justice, and that is why we are outraged.”NYT
She calls it “The Ferguson Effect.”
Two years after she fatally shot an unarmed black man in Tulsa, Betty Jo Shelby, now a police officer in an adjacent county, is teaching a course on how to “survive such events” — legally, emotionally and physically. The course, as she explained it to a local ABC affiliate, equips officers to withstand the effect — named for the Missouri city convulsed by the 2014 shooting of a black teenager — “when a police officer is victimized by anti-police groups and tried in the court of public opinion.”WP

For once, the early speculation about what could happen at the Democrats' first debate was right. Donald Trump? Mentioned a mere 20 times over two hours. Joe Biden? Not mentioned at all. Candidates polling at 1 percent or lower? They went right after the candidates who'd been getting more buzz, often with results.
Other people have their winners and losers lists; this debate fit fairly nicely into an ordinal ranking of who did best and … least best. WP

Elizabeth Warren has also invested heavily in campaign staff in Iowa and other states with early primaries. She has a crisp, unchanging populist message rooted in years of arguing, as a professor and politician, that the government now works for people with money and power, not the middle class.
“This is my life’s work,” she said in a phone interview while traveling in Ohio recently. “What happened to the American middle class has been the central issue I’ve worked on for decades. This presidential primary gives me a chance to get out and talk about what’s broken and how to fix it.”
Sanders, a democratic socialist who criticizes some in the party establishment and is still not registered as a Democrat, paints mostly in broad thematic strokes when he campaigns for his signature issues of Medicare for all, free public college and a higher minimum wage.LATimes

We must not forget that Memorial Day, which we celebrate on Monday, belongs to the foes of racism. The day people place flowers on the graves of fallen veterans was founded by the enemies of the Ku Klux Klan. Memorial Day belongs to the democratic traditions of the American people.It sprang out of the war against the hooded terrorists of the South who sought to re-establish slavery on American soil. American right-wingers and false patriots try to hide the real story of the birth of Memorial Day in 1868. At the time, Major General John A. Logan, the father of Memorial Day, was in the thick of the fight against the Ku Klux Klan when he issued the first call for May30th celebrations. Art Shields Daily Worker

The Sanders campaign has evolved from an unruly movement four years ago into a highly disciplined, highly structured, proactive machine that is the envy of the Washington establishment. An operation spawned from antipathy toward corporate America now functions with the precision, focus and outsized bank account of, well, corporate America.
“They are much better able to harness all the organic energy this time,” said Ro Khanna, the Silicon Valley congressman who co-chairs the campaign. “There is an infrastructure that wasn’t there before. There are department heads watching every dollar, coordinating messaging, targeting effectively.”
It is an operation, he said, that functions very much like the one political strategist and former Uber executive David Plouffe set up when he managed Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign. LATimes

To a not-insignificant number of Democrats, of course, Mr. Sanders’s populist agenda is exactly what the country needs. And he has proved his mettle, having emerged from the margins to mount a surprisingly strong challenge to Hillary Clinton, earning 13 million votes and capturing 23 primaries or caucuses.And for many Sanders supporters, the anxieties of establishment Democrats are not a concern.
That prospect is spooking establishment-aligned Democrats, some of whom are worried that his nomination could lure a third-party centrist into the field. And it is also creating tensions about what, if anything, should be done to haltR.T. Rybak, the former Minneapolis mayor who was vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee in 2016, complained bitterly about the party’s tilt toward Mrs. Clinton back then, and warned that it would backfire if his fellow mainstream Democrats “start with the idea that you’re trying to stop somebody.” Mr. Sanders.New York Times
n a pretrial filing, prosecutors wrote that jurors should be instructed to "question the credibility of any officer's testimony if he or she demonstrates an unwillingness to give full or truthful testimony because of a bias toward police. ... Similarly, the behaviors and statements of particular officers and investigators at the crime scene and during the investigation that demonstrate bias are relevant to show how and why certain evidence was or was not acquired or preserved."This week, prosecutors in the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor are revealing more about the extent of that alleged lack of cooperation. They say officers and union officials held a meeting to discuss withholding information from the criminal investigation into the July 2017 fatal police shooting.
The meeting took place in the cafeteria of the Hennepin County Government Center prior to the refusal of about 20 police officers to talk to investigators, Assistant Hennepin County Attorney Patrick Lofton said Monday. "If 20 officers are meeting in the basement to decide not to tell what they know to the county attorney's office, that is a problem,Judge Quaintance clarified that when she characterized the officers' refusal to cooperate as a "conspiracy," she was not being sarcastic.

Prosecutor Patrick Lofton disputed the defence's claim that Ms Damond Ruszczyk had thumped the patrol car and scared the officers, saying neither Mr Noor nor Mr Harrity mentioned a loud noise on the night.
He said investigators found no forensic evidence to show that Ms Damond Ruszczyk had touched the squad car before she was shot.Mr Lofton also questioned why other officers responding to the scene did not consistently have their cameras switched on.The officers did not turn on their body cameras until after the shooting, and there was no squad car video.Mr Lofton noted that a sergeant taking statements had her camera on when she talked to Mr Harrity, but off when she talked to Mr Noor."We'll never hear what Noor said," he said.ABC/Wires
Mr Damond said after receiving the call he went to Las Vegas airport in an attempt to fly back to Minneapolis.
While waiting there in the early hours of July 16, a special agent from Minnesota's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension called his mobile and told him a police officer had shot Ms Damond."I was in shock," Mr Damond said."I was shaking.

THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION -- MARCH 2019
Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 196,000 in March, and the
unemployment rate was unchanged at 3.8 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics reported today.
Lightftoot never wavered from her message of changing City Hall, but campaigning and governing are two different enterprises. As Preckwinkle frequently reminded her opponent during the campaign, “Change is not easy.”
As such, there will be plenty of entrenched interests and aldermen eager to maintain business as usual at 121 N. LaSalle St., but Lightfoot seemed eager for the brewing fight.
“The machine was built to last. … There are a lot of people who are very, very happy with the status quo, who have profited in every conceivable way, so they’re not going to give up power easily,” Lightfoot said Tuesday afternoon as she left a Woodlawn church that serves as a polling place. “I’ve heard lots of rumblings of, ‘We’re going to teach her if she gets elected.’Chicago Tribune
Seventy-five people, known only by numbers on cards hung around their necks, began filling out juror questionnaires Monday — the start of the trial of ex-Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor in the 2017 killing of 911 caller Justine Ruszczyk.MPR
The questionnaire includes questions about prospective jurors experience with Somali-Americans and whether they've had "any particularly positive or negative experiences with persons of Somali descent or heritage."
Noor is Somali-American.
It also asks whether prospective jurors, their family or friends "participate in any group that protests against police or government agencies" or in any group that "discriminates against any race" or "claims superiority over other races.

Woody Guthrie wrote "This land is your land" in February 1940, he was 27 years old, sitting in his room in a fleabag hotel in midtown Manhattan called Hanover House. "This Land Is Your Land," Guthrie added a line at the bottom: "All you can write is what you see." He wanted to sing the truth — and in fact, his song was a rebuttal to another one. Kate Smith's version of Irving Berlin's "God Bless America" was on jukeboxes and radio everywhere during Guthrie's journey across the country. He, apparently, hated it. NPR

Bill Nye the Science Guy.“As you may know, I’m a white guy,” Nye began his address to Ocasio-Cortez. “I belong to two unions. But I think the problem on both sides is fear. People of my ancestry are afraid of having to pay for everything as immigrants come into this country. The people who work at the diner in Alabama are afraid to try to ask for what’s reasonable. So do you have a plan to work with people in Congress that are afraid?”Nye said this fear related particularly to climate change and cited Article I, Section 8, Clause 8, of the United States Constitution, which “promote[s] the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries.”
“I think one of the keys to dismantling fear is dismantling zero-sum mentality,” What does that mean? It means rejecting outright the logic that says someone else’s gain necessitates my loss, and that my gain must necessitate someone else’s loss, and must come at the cost of another person. We are increasing our capacities for productivity. We can give without a take.“We’re viewing progress as a cost instead of just as an investment,” The difference between a cost and an investment is an investment yields returns. And when we choose to invest in our systems, we are choosing to create wealth. And when we all invest in them, the wealth is for all of us, too.”AOC The Daily Dot

US Senator Bernie Sanders took aim at Donald Trump as he launched his 2020 presidential campaign with a message of unity, equality and working class values in Brooklyn, New York.Senator Sanders, a Vermont independent and the runner-up in the 2016 Democratic presidential primary, on Saturday was cheered on by a crowd of thousands who came out in the snow and freezing temperatures to see him speak at Brooklyn College, right near where he grew up as the son of a Jewish immigrant and lived in a rent-controlled apartment.In his opening remarks, Sanders described Donald Trump as “the most dangerous president in modern American history” and affirmed he was saying “loudly and clearly that the underlying principles of our government will not be greed, hatred and lies. It will not be racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia and religious bigotry. That is going to end.”After Brooklyn, Mr Sanders will travel to Selma, Alabama, where he will be among the politicians commemorating the anniversary of the 1965 clash known as Bloody Sunday, when peaceful demonstrators were beaten back by Alabama state troopers as they attempted to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge. He’ll hold his second campaign rally in Chicago, where he attended the University of Chicago and was involved in civil rights protests.Australia Network

The tale is a parable for the resistance generation as it broaches subjects such as socialism, Palestinian rights, male privilege, prisons, systemic racism — issues that were once the crux of the radical Angela Agenda but are now liberal talking points. It reveals a crucial question about how we respond to activists: When should we push back — and when should we wait and see where they lead us?She’s someone who, from a very young age, has provoked enormous controversy over whether her ideas were good or bad,” says Jane Kamensky, director of Harvard University’s Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America. “She cast herself as a revolutionary. And we have liked our civil rights activists firmly in the reform tradition, and we have liked our revolutionaries male.”“She inspired a lot of black intellectuals, in addition to being a person about whose fate we were concerned in how the criminal justice system was treating her,” says Henry Louis Gates, director of Harvard’s Hutchins Center for African & African American Research. He recalled that Davis, who studied philosophy, was the reason he enrolled in a philosophy course and that he had once had hung a “Free Angela” poster on his wall.WP

“I don’t think there’s any mathematical way, looking at the field and the number of candidates, that there wouldn’t be a runoff,” political strategist David Axelrod told the Tribune last week. Underscoring the slim possibility of a final decision Tuesday night, he said: “I mean, meteorologically there’s a way to get hit by lightning, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to happen.”
The horse rac Axelrod, the architect of former President Barack Obama’s political rise, said he thinks Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle likely will secure one of the two runoff spots with the backing of two powerful labor groups: the Chicago Teachers Union and Service Employees Union International.
Early voting numbers by Friday had reached 74,000 and by Monday were expected to exceed the 89,000 early votes cast in 2015. Vote-by-mail, once known as absentee voting, is up. Of the 63,000 who applied to vote by mail — nearly triple the requests made in the last two city elections — about 24,000 ballots had been returned.
One clue may come from Chicago’s voter registration numbers. They’re slightly up, which may add up to more voters heading to the polls. Right now, the city has 1.58 million registered voters on the rolls, up from 1.4 million in 2011 and 1.42 million in 2015 — the last two municipal election years. In 2011, 594,000 voters, or 42 percent of those registered, cast a ballot, while that number dipped to 438,700, or 34 percent of registered voters, in 2015, though the mayoral runoff between incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel and challenger Jesus “Chuy” Garcia, now a congressman, drew a whopping 600,000 voters.

Cory Booker on Sunday delivered what he called the “hard truth” about Medicare-for-all: It will be difficult to pass, so the party should also ready more incremental changes.Sen. Kamala D. Harris the next day championed the Green New Deal, a sweeping climate proposal — before adding: “Some of it we’ll achieve, some of it we won’t.”Sen. Amy Klobuchar told a young questioner at a CNN town hall that, unlike some of her fellow candidates, she would not support making four-year college free. “If I was a magic genie and could give that to everyone and we could afford it, I would.
Trump campaign spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany issued a statement Tuesday responding to Sanders’s announcement, saying he had “already won the debate in the Democrat primary, because every candidate is embracing his brand of socialism.”We are alarmed by the new calls to adopt socialism in our country,” Trump said, reviving a line of attack Republicans have sought to use against Democrats for decades.

President Donald Trump declared 2019 as the “twilight of socialism” in the western hemisphere Monday during a speech in Miami and cast impending regime change in Venezuela as a harbinger of things to come in Cuba and Nicaragua.
Appearing in the capital of the Americas, Trump addressed the Venezuelan people in an effort to further increase pressure on embattled ruler Nicolás Maduro to flee and end a blockade of shipments of medicine and food sitting on the Colombian border. He spoke directly to military leaders who continue to support Maduro, warning that the U.S. has identified their offshore holdings and is prepared to use force, if necessary.By David Smiley and Martin Vassolo

Corporate profits are booming, but average wages haven't budged over the past year. The U.S. economy has run this way for decades, partly because of a fundamental change in business practices dating back to the 1980s. On Wednesday I'm introducing legislation to fix it.American corporations exist only because the American people grant them charters. Those charters confer valuable privileges -- such as limited legal liability for their owners -- that enable businesses to turn a profit. What do Americans get in return? What are the obligations of corporate citizenship in the U.S.?Elizabeth Warren

This article is meant to provide a relatively comprehensive assessment of Klobuchar’s strengths and weaknesses — rather than being either a “devil’s advocate” argument or a best-case scenario. It’s informed by conversations with Klobuchar’s campaign as well as with unaffiliated Democrats, but the opinions and analysis are my own. As you’ll see, I think Klobuchar’s upsides outweigh her downsides, but there’s plenty of material in both columns.Nate Silver
Texas - Congresswoman Veronica Escobar and several El Paso elected officials held a news conference Monday to ask President Donald Trump "to correct the record on his misleading State of the Union remarks about El Paso, and to apologize to El Pasoans for misrepresenting their hometown."
During his State of the Union address last week, President Trump claimed El Paso became one of the safest cities in America after the installation of a border barrier. Trump's comment ignited a firestorm of criticism from local leaders. "The border city of El Paso, Texas used to have extremely high rates of violent crime - one of the highest in the country - and considered one of our nation's most dangerous cities," Trump said. "Now, with a powerful barrier in place, El Paso is one of our safest cities."KVIA
About a mile down the road, several thousand demonstrators gathered at a high school carrying American flags, rainbow banners, “Beto for President” flags, and flags for Mexico and Texas. There were also signs decrying Trump and his border wall — such as “Trump made America hate again” — and chants from the crowd that included “Make tacos, not walls!”
The President is coming to El Paso Monday. He will promise a wall and will repeat his lies about the dangers that immigrants pose. With El Paso as the backdrop, he will claim that this city of immigrants was dangerous before a border fence was built here in 2008.Beto

A third scandal to hit the Democratic administration of Virginia sent the Capitol reeling on Wednesday.
Attorney General Mark Herring, in a statement he issued late in the morning, said he dressed in "brown makeup" and a wig to imitate rappers as a 19-year-old at the University of Virginia.
Herring is next in line to become governor if both Gov. Ralph Northam and Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax step down. Northam is facing calls to resign over a photo on his medical school yearbook page showing men in a Ku Klux Klan robe and blackface, and Fairfax has been accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 2004. If all three resign, Republican House Speaker Kirk Cox would be next in line for the Governor's Mansion.pilotonline.com
The first and foremost reason I was interested is that I thought Trump might signal his strategy on the border wall — e.g. whether he was willing to shut down the government again, or declare a national emergency, or whatever else. But he didn’t really do that. It’s not even clear that he has his strategy figured out. Now, arguably, the lack of a threat to shut down the government or to declare an emergency is itself newsworthy, a pulling back from the brink if you will, but there was also enough rhetoric about the importance of the wall and how dangerous illegal immigration is that I’m not sure I’d give too much credence to that theory.

Today, the men and women of the @NRA honor the profound life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. King applied for a concealed carry permit in a "may issue" state and was denied. We will never stop fighting for every law-abiding citizen's right to self-defense. #MLKDay
Today Americans celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We in Israel greatly appreciate Dr. King and his efforts to stamp out bigotry, including hatred against the Jewish people and the Jewish State. We remember his moral clarity when he said that anti-Zionism is antisemitism.What we do know is that King welcomed the Jewish community into the his movement—quite a few Jews participated in his efforts to end segregation. But King didn’t often mention U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, so any views on Israel attributed to him are almost certainly BS
.if we are to honor King’s message and not merely the man, we must condemn Israel’s actions: unrelenting violations of international law, continued occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza, home demolitions and land confiscations Michelle Alexander

The total loss in Nebraska farm revenues due to the retaliatory tariffs ranges from $695 million to $1.026 billion so far in 2018,” Rempe said. “That’s roughly 11 to 16 percent of the export values of Nebraska agriculture goods in 2017.”
In terms of the broader Nebraska economy, the analysis says that when direct farm losses are combined with the state’s labor income losses, the total economic loss to the state of Nebraska from retaliatory tariffs climbs to between $859 million and $1.2 billion.Nebraska Farm Bureau

A job in the government has long been underwritten by the understanding that while you wouldn’t strike it rich on the federal pay scale, you also didn’t need to worry about the corporate world’s mercurial whims. The focus was on serving the public, rather than pursuing profits. The pace could be frustratingly inefficient, but it also was not maddeningly chaotic. And the trade-off came with solid health and retirement benefits.
That grand bargain — deployed for decades to lure talent into the government ranks — is threatened today by a bruising shutdown with no end in sight. And this is the third shutdown in one year. The situation is exacerbated by a president who appears to view many government workers with contempt, deriding the federal bureaucracy as “the Deep State” and noting derisively via tweet that DJ Trump thinks most government workers are Democrats.

I have no tolerance for such positions and those who espouse these views are not supporters of American ideals and freedoms,” McConnell said in a written statement to The Washington Post. “Rep. King’s statements are unwelcome and unworthy of his elected position. If he doesn’t understand why ‘white supremacy’ is offensive, he should find another line of work.”
Anti-Defamation League called on Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and McCarthy to censure King and remove him as the top Republican on a House Judiciary subcommittee.Jonathan Greenblatt, the group’s chief executive and national director, said in a letter to the House leaders that it was the second time that he had made such a request.“When it comes to Rep. King, we are beyond substantive disagreements. Rep. King has brought dishonor onto the House of Representatives,” Greenblatt wrote. By censuring King, he added, “you will make clear that his actions were deeply offensive, wrong, and that the U.S. House of Representatives will not tolerate anti-Semitism or bigotry in any form.”

Russell Vought took the helm of the Office of Management and Budget a little more than a week ago, after agencies began closing their doors. In just a few days, he has used his perch to make several controversial decisions aimed at blunting the impact of the partial government shutdown — moves meant to buy President Trump more time to drag out the closure, which is on the verge of becoming the longest in U.S. history.
It was his decision to allow the Internal Revenue Service to pay tax refunds during the shutdown, something that hadn’t been previously allowed and that some Democrats called legally dubious. He was also involved in the effort to find money to pay food stamps in February, after it appeared that millions of Americans could lose the benefit.Vought wrote in 2016 that “Muslims do not simply have a deficient theology. They do not know God because they have rejected Jesus Christ his Son, and they stand condemned.”“I’m a Christian, and I believe in a Christian set of principles based on my faith,” Russell T.

Forty years ago, Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping and I normalized diplomatic relations between the People’s Republic of China and the United States, putting an end to three decades of hostility. This led to an era distinguished by peace in East Asia and the Pacific region. China’s spectacular economic growth , in conjunction with its continuing integration with the much larger U.S. economy, has enabled the two countries to become engines of global prosperity. Scientific and cultural exchanges have blossomed, and the United States has since become the top foreign destination for Chinese scholars and tourists. The 40th anniversary of this relationship is a testament to the ability of countries with different histories, cultures and political systems to work together for the greater good. Yet, today, this critical relationship is in jeopardy. Jimmy Carter

FRIDAY, DEC. 28 – Ujima (Collective work & responsibility)
KWANZAA IS A FESTIVALOF HARVEST AND celebration of the Good, the shared good, the shared goodof field and forest, of fruit tree and flower, the shared good of wind and waters, rainfall and riverflow, of life and all living things, in a word, the shared good of the world in all its wonderful abundance.
At the very heart and center of the celebration
of Kwanzaa is the ethical imperative and so-cial obligation of the cooperative creation and sharing of an inclusive Good. This prin-
ciple and related practice are rooted in itsan-cient origins the African harvest and the
communitarian worldview and way of life that undergirded and informed it. The ancient roots of Kwanzaa in the shared African har-vest and the celebration of it, immediately bring to mind the sacred teachings given to us by our honored ancestors in the

Much of the sermon, “For Love’s Sake,” sought to explore what the enormous human-led efforts to celebrate Christmas are really about. During Christmas, Budde said, people seek to insert themselves into a “wondrous story” — the Christmas narrative. In doing that, she said, they glimpse the presence of God, through the extra kindnesses, forgiveness, generosity, grace and peace that people extend during Christmastime."You only have to read the first sentence of the story to know that there are deep social implications to it, should we place ourselves in this story. It begins with an emperor who could move people about at will. And so two people forced to obey the emperor’s edict set out on a long journey on the last month of the young woman’s pregnancy. And they were denied a place of comfort in her greatest hour of need.
And it wouldn’t be long before they would be forced to flee again, this time to find refuge from violence in another country. It’s right there. It’s in the text. It’s in the story.Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde Washington National Cathedral WP

Homelessness in the U.S. has remained almost flat in 2018, highlighting the magnitude of the problem in Seattle, where the number of homeless people swelled by more than 10 times the national average, according to new federal data.
Homelessness rose 0.3 percent nationally this year, according to a report released Monday by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The agency announced the results of counts of homeless people from one night in January in more than 3,000 cities and counties, a study that’s been conducted annually for more than a decade. Seattle remained — as it has since 2015 — third in the nation when it comes to the sheer number of homeless people.Seattle Times

Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn., was one of the main architects of the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 as he served as the ranking member of the House Agriculture Committee. In a statement Wednesday afternoon, Peterson pointed out improvements for dairy farmers and permanent funding for Local Food & Farmers Market Promotion Program, Value-Added Producer Grants, the BFRDP Program, Organic Research and the Section 2501 Outreach Program.
"As I said in my floor speech, rural America is facing so many challenges and this bill goes a long way toward providing needed certainty to farmers and ranchers," Peterson said. "I encourage President Trump to sign the farm bill into law quickly."
Recent claims of a “shortfall” in the budget for Medicaid benefits – an unwarranted alarm based on a misrepresentation of budget numbers – are further undercut by the fact that Medicaid enrollment is falling. Between January and September of 2018, total Medicaid enrollment fell by 96,634 people, or 6.7 percent.
Not only has enrollment been steadily dropping over the past eight months, but enrollment is below what the state had projected and used in its cost estimates. In the budget, the state thought Medicaid enrollment would average 1,427,045 in fiscal year (FY) 2019. As of September, there were 1,336,455 people enrolled in Medicaid – approximately 90,600 or 6.3 percent fewer than expected for an average month in FY 2019.Kentucky Center for Economic Policy

Despite the controversy that has roiledhercampaign for the past three weeks, Cindy Hyde-Smith has won the race for Mississippi’s Senate seat, overtaking Democrat Mike Espy, according to NBC News and the New York Times.
The victory for Hyde-Smith, who has been serving in the Senate since she was appointed to replace Sen. Thad Cochran in April, was narrower than it might have been under different circumstances. Though her campaign stuck to a classic Mississippi Republican playbook, the candidate was plagued by gaffes, to put it mildly, which led to an underwhelming margin during the special election Tuesday.

Florida officials are investigating a racist social media post that shows the face of Willie Taggart, the first black head coach at Florida State University, superimposed over the body of a black man hanging from a tree.
Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, a white former state lawmaker who was appointed to the seat in April, is still favored over black Democrat Mike Espy in the reliably Republican state, which has not sent a Democrat to the U.S. Senate since 1982
But she has been engulfed in a political storm since a video surfaced showing her praising a supporter at a Nov. 2 public event by saying: “If he invited me to a public hanging, I’d be on the front row.”
The comment caused an uproar in Mississippi, a deep South state with a history of racism and violence against blacks, including lynchings. Several businesses, including giant retailer Walmart, demanded that she return their donations.
Hyde-Smith was also shown on another video joking about suppressing liberal student votes, and photographs have surfaced of her posing with Confederate artifacts in 2014.

In Memorial of Jerry Pippin 1939-2015
November 25, 1939 is Jerry's birthdate. In November of 1999 he had just begun his internet adventures and on the eve of that birthday he wrote about his plans for the future in the article linked here. I discovered it recently while searching the directory for something else and thought you would find it inspiring as well as being pure Jerry.By the way, keep in mind that it was written 16 years ago, so some information is dated but I kept it as he wrote it. Also, there's an embedded snippet of song by Peggy Lee at the very beginning, which Jerry refers to; however, on some browsers it might not play, so don't be confused - just keep reading - Jane SwartleyToday .would have been his 79th birthday….Happy Heavenly Birthday! Jerry loved celebrating birthdays…especially his… Every year he and his sister, Beverly, celebrated together...Remembering Jerry Pippin with...Roberta Scott
Today I am 60. I have a new project. The one I have been waiting for...all these years... I just didn't know it. My eyes still sparkle when I think about doing my shows on the INTERNET.. it's different from radio...TV...or anything that has come before...MULTI-MEDIA is the answer and those who resist will be left behind. I am one of the lucky ones; having more fun doing what I am doing than any vacation time. How long will I be able to continue this adventure in cyberspace.. hopefully for a couple of decades or more...but at 60, when many of my friends are beginning to appear in the obituary pages...I know I must do as the song says...take it all... One Day at a TIME...my www friends...One Day at a TIME.Jerry Pippin

I think, you know, the human condition doesn't change all that much. Irony is still funny. Being anti-authoritarian is still valid. Being suspicious of people who get elected is still a good idea. I don't care what side of the aisle you're on, I don't care what your story is, I don't care if you agree with me or not. But there are certain fundamental things about being a human being that are healthy, and one is a suspicion of people in authority. One is a sense of humor, I think, is a requirement. When people get angry, they lose their sense of humor. And I think a sense of humor is necessary to survive as a human species, not as an artist, not as a comedian, but we need to laugh. And we need to laugh at ourselves, and if we're able to do that, we'll get through any of these storms we have to weather these days.
Paul Reed, a University of Alabama professor who specializes in the sociolinguistic history of Southern and Appalachian English varieties, said that the phrase first appeared in written works in the United States in the mid-1800s and that its usage peaked during the civil rights era in the 20th century.He said that the phrase had indeed once been used as an expression of regard. People would use the idiom to convey that they thought so highly of someone they would attend something as distasteful as a public hanging with him.But given its clear negative connotation, Mr. Reed said, most people would not dare to use the phrase in 2018.
U.S. Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith demanded there be no audience or outside press allowed at tonight’s U.S. Senate debate and requested other restrictions, two sources familiar with the debate negotiations told the Jackson Free Press Tuesday morning.When she faces off against Democratic challenger Mike Espy at 7 p.m., only the debate moderator, panelists and the production team will be allowed in the auditorium—a requirement the Hyde-Smith campaign pushed for and the Espy team argued against.They Have Rigged This For Her to Win'
A second source who also asked not to be identified, though, said the debate was "rigged."

Partisans hoping to proclaim victory after Tuesday’s midterm elections got their wish: Democrats racked up enough wins to seize control of the House of Representatives in January for the first time since 2010, while Republicans added at least two seats to what was a slim advantage in the Senate.voters elected a record number of women, including many first-time candidates, both parties also took some hits to the chin, as rising Democratic stars Andrew Gillum and Beto O’Rourke lost, along with Senators Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.) and Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.). In the GOP, some Trump supporters lost their races, including Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Kansas Gov. hopeful Kris Kobach, Sen. Dean Heller of Nevada, and Congressman Dave Brat of Virginia.

Tuesday’s results were set to transform the House, not only in partisan makeup but also in gender, age and ethnicity. Ilhan Omar in Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib in Michigan will become the first Muslim women in the House. Sharice Davids in Kansas and Deb Haaland in New Mexico will become the first Native American women in the chamber. And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a 29-year-old from New York, became the youngest woman elected to Congress.
They were part of a wave of female candidates on the Democratic side, including Jennifer Wexton, who easily unseated Rep. Barbara Comstock (R) in a closely watched race in Northern Virginia, and Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, who narrowly defeated Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R) in South Florida.Washington Post
On the flip side, those who think the Democrats will win the House comfortably will quibble with some of the seats that we’re picking the Republicans to hold. We don’t have Democrats winning any new seats in Georgia, where Democrats are hoping to net a couple of suburban seats, and we have Democrats netting only a single seat in Florida despite the party having a few other credible targets there.Crystal Ball

Notes:
A new research paper from the Institute for New Economic Thinking released today makes the case that Trump artfully exploited long-term economic distress to clinch the 2016 presidential election.
The paper challenges the popular conventional wisdom embraced by many pundits that the 62.9 million Americans who cast a vote for Trump were simply one-dimensional “deplorables” — troglodytes motivated narrowly by racist, sexist, and xenophobic rhetoric and little else. https://www.ineteconomics.org/research/research-papers/the-economic-and-social-roots-of-populist-rebellion-support-for-donald-trump-in-2016

There are just 2½ weeks until Election Day, and it was an election Gov. Bill Walker, an independent, looked likely to lose. Instead, on Friday, he abruptly ended his campaign and threw his support to the Democrat in the race, Mark Begich.Walker’s re-election hopes against Dunleavy got even fainter when Democrat Mark Begich, a former senator and mayor of Anchorage, got into the race. Polling showed Dunleavy leading each candidate by double digits. A recent Alaska Survey Research poll found Dunleavy with 43 percent of the vote and Begich and Walker splitting the rest of it, with about 26 percent each. So it stands to reason that if you combined their two votes entirely, Begich could have enough to win.It’s not entirely clear why Walker left, but it is clear that a number of things in the past few weeks haven’t gone his way. And the state of the race gets slightly more competitive for Democrats as a result, but Republicans still have the upper hand, just as they did before Walker suddenly dropped out.

Advertised as a “wide-ranging conversation” instead of a formal political debate, the one-on-one meeting between Democratic Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Republican businessman John Cox was noteworthy for lacking the prime-time television audience that traditionally sees candidates competing for the most powerful and coveted political post in the nation’s most populous state.
During the candidate forum, hosted by San Francisco public radio station KQED and airing statewide, Newsom and Cox clashed over their personal beliefs and political histories in what was largely a measured exchange.
“Gavin has been part of a political class that has led this state downward,” Cox said early in the one-hour radio forum. “I have a vision of this state being affordable and livable. I think we can do that if we get rid of the special-interest influence in Sacramento.”
Newsom blasted Cox for being out of step with most Californians on gun control, abortion rights and climate change, saying the Republican offered only “illusory” ideas but no concrete solutions on how to address crucial state issues such as the need for affordable housing.
He also criticized his opponent for comments the Republican made in 2007 when he said the push for LGBTQ rights would “open the floodgates to polygamy and bestiality.” LATimes 08 October 2018
California Statewide Poll: Week 6 Newsom loses nearly 3% this week and Cox picks up 1% point. Newsom’s advantage with No Party Preference voters is slipping back to 46.7% to Cox’s 44.8%.
Gavin Newsom: 50.7%
John Cox: 43.3%
Unsure: 5.9%

McSally and SInema portrayed themselves as dramatically different, said Aaron Kall, director of debate at the University of Michigan.McSally, 52, was aggressive in trying to press her points and alternated between relatable and combative Sinema, 42 deliberately strike a measured tone.
The debate's most memorable moment came when McSally took control of the questioning as the event sped toward closing statements, during a question about climate change. Realizing she would not have time to highlight what she sees as her greatest strengthMcSally sped up the pace of her speaking and tried to use her final moments to attack. "We have to talk about our military," McSally said, her hands waving, her voice rising. "We have to talk about our veterans."Kall, citing McSally's yelling over the moderators and her gesturing, said, "In real time, McSally was realizing that this kind of makeover or transformation, or independent streak ... may be working in relating to voters, especially low-information voters who may be tuning in for the first time."Sinema struck a tone similar to that of a parent expressing disappointment in a child."Martha has chosen to run a campaign like the one you’re seeing right now where she’s engaging in ridiculous attacks and smearing my campaign. And she’s just trying to cut, cut, cut, and not show the full picture.” Sinema's refusal to look at McSally showed she was not going "to take the bait(like Liz Warrent)."Sinema's body language may have sent a cue to voters that she views McSally and her campaign as "a campaign in the gutter, willing to do anything to win." Kall compared Sinema's approach to the moment like a boxer: "Just let the bell ring and the time expire." Arizona Central

The facts underlying Christine Blasey Ford’s claim of being sexually assaulted by a young Brett Kavanaugh will continue to be revealed as confirmation proceedings unfold. Yet it’s impossible to miss the parallels between the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing of 2018 and the 1991 confirmation hearing for Justice Clarence Thomas. To do better, the 2018 Senate Judiciary Committee must demonstrate a clear understanding that sexual violence is a social reality to which elected representatives must respond. A fair, neutral and well-thought-out course is the only way to approach Dr. Blasey and Judge Kavanaugh’s forthcoming testimony. The details of what that process would look like should be guided by experts who have devoted their careers to understanding sexual violence. The job of the Senate Judiciary Committee is to serve as fact-finders, to better serve the American public, and the weight of the government should not be used to destroy the lives of witnesses who are called to testify.Anita Hill

In an independent report published today, researchers at the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health (GW Milken Institute SPH) estimated there were 2,975 excess deaths in Puerto Rico due to Hurricane Maria from September 2017 through the end of February 2018. The researchers also identified gaps in the death certification and public communication processes and went on to make recommendations that will help prepare Puerto Rico for future hurricanes and other natural disasters.
Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico in September 2017 and, soon after, the government of Puerto Rico determined that 64 people had died. Later, unofficial investigations and independent scientific studies suggested that the death toll was likely much higher. To get a more accurate and rigorous assessment, the Governor of Puerto Rico commissioned an independent study from GW Milken Institute SPH.
Lawyers for Jean's family disputed the narrative in the arrest warrant affidavit at a news conference streamed live by WFAA-TV (Channel 8) Monday evening, saying Jean was a meticulous man who wouldn't have neglected to close and lock his door.
One attorney, Lee Merritt, said two independent witnesses had come forward to say they heard knocking on the door in the hallway before the shooting. Merritt said one witness reported hearing a woman's voice saying, "Let me in, let me in." Then they heard gunshots, he said.
Botham Jean's door was unlocked, lights were off when Officer Amber Guyger mistook his apartment for hers, official says
After the gunshots, one of the witnesses reported hearing what she thought was a man's voice saying, "Oh my God, why did you do that," Merritt said."This affidavit is very self-serving," said lawyer Benjamin Crump, who is also representing the family. "Botham Jean is not here to give his version of what happened because he's dead."A return for the warrant shows the Rangers collected an iPhone from the living room. They didn't take Jean's laptop, which they noted was damaged. Dallas Morning News

In the prologue to Woodward’s book, obtained by The Atlantic, the economic adviser Gary Cohn conspires to swipe a letter from the president’s desk terminating the United States–Korea Free Trade Agreement. Cohn considered it a danger to national security, so he grabbed it.“I stole it off his desk,” Cohn told an associate, according to Woodward. “I wouldn’t let him see it. He's never going to see that document. Got to protect the country.” Bob Woodward

Mr. Trump tweeted Monday morning that Trumka "represented his union poorly on television this weekend." He added: "it is easy to see why unions are doing so poorly. A Dem!"The president's attack came after Trumka appeared on "Fox News Sunday" over the weekend where he said efforts to overhaul the North American Free Trade Agreement should include Canada. Trumka, whose organization is an umbrella group for most unions, said the economies of the United States, Canada and Mexico are "integrated" and "it's pretty hard to see how that would work without having Canada in the deal."

Florida Democrats nominated Andrew Gillum, the Tallahassee mayor, and Republicans tapped Representative Ron DeSantis for governor Tuesday, setting the stage for a ferocious general election in the country’s largest swing state between one of President Trump’s most unabashed allies and an outspoken progressive who would be Florida’s first black governor.Mr. Gillum edged Ms. Graham, a former North Florida congresswoman who finished second, and Mr. Levine, the former Miami Beach mayor who finished third after dropping nearly $30 million of his personal fortune into the campaign. Ms. Graham, a moderate, had been considered the favorite in a midterm year in which many Democratic women have fared well. NYT

John S. McCain, the proud naval aviator who climbed from depths of despair as a prisoner of war in Vietnam to pinnacles of power as a Republican congressman and senator from Arizona and a two-time contender for the presidency, died on Saturday at his home in Arizona. He was 81.Despite his grave condition, he soon made a dramatic appearance in the Senate to cast a thumbs-down vote against his party’s drive to repeal the Affordable Care Act.
On Election Day 2008, Mr. McCain lost most of the battleground states and some that were traditionally Republican. Mr. Obama won with 53 percent of the popular vote to Mr. McCain’s 46 percent, and 365 Electoral College votes to Mr. McCain’s 173.
“Few of us have been tested the way John once was, or required to show the kind of courage that he did,” President Obama said Saturday. “But all of us can aspire to the courage to put the greater good above our own. At John’s best, he showed us what that means.” New York Times

look within the Democratic primary for Governor suggests a very close race on Tuesday as voters are split among the top candidates. State Attorney General Lori Swanson is at 29% and
Rep. Tim Walz is at 28%. Former state House Majority leader/Emily list endorsed Erin Murphy is statistical tied with the two at 19%, and 24% are undecided/other.
On the Republican side, former Gov Tim
Pawlenty has a slight advantage over Jeff Johnson for
the nomination 43% to 34% with 23% undecided. (n=156, +/8%). Driving the Pawlenty vote are
independent voters in the Republican primary breaking for Pawlenty 66% to 13%, while Republican affiliated vo
ters are breaking slightly for Johnson, 39% to 38%.
It appears at this time that whomever the Democrats and Republicans nominate, Democrats will
start with a slight lead. In hypothetical ballot tests Swanson leads Pawlenty 44% to 36% (21%
undecided) while Walz leads Pawlenty 44% to 33% (23% undecided). The race tightens if Johnson wins the GOP nomination; against Swanson he trails 37% to 32% (31% Swanson he trails 37% to 32% (31% undecided)
and against Walz, Johnson trails 40% to 33%, with 27% undecided.
President DJ Trump’s approval rating is lower in Minnesota than his national numbers with a 35% approval compared with his RCP average of 43%. Trump’s disapproval is about the same as his national numbers at 51%. Driving down Trump's popularity appears to be his recent tariffs, which 49% of Minnesotans think are bad for the state; 18% think the tariffs are good. Emerson University Poll

Attorney General Lori Swanson, DFL-endorsed state Rep. Erin Murphy and U.S. Rep. Tim Walz debated the issues live on MPR News — their final chance to engage with each other before the primary. Current DFL Gov. Mark Dayton is stepping down, leaving the office wide open. When the other side does it, it’s called negative campaigning. When your side does it, it's described as pointing out contrasts. Whichever term is used, the 2018 DFL primary for governor has been lacking in either. But Friday, it finally reached the point where the candidates are pointing out the flaws in their opponents.“Congressman Walz this year has missed 63 percent of his votes,” Swanson said. “One of the most important things a congressman does is show up to vote,” and then compared him to a McDonald’s worker who regularly misses shifts.

On Tuesday, Missouri voters sent a message to the Republican-controlled state Legislature: The state must protect unions. It is the first state since 2012 to overturn a right-to-work law that aimed to weaken unions by severely restricting their cash flow.Tuesday’s vote in Missouri serves as the first test of the right-to-work movement’s momentum since a crucial Supreme Court decision in June dealt a blow to unions nationally. In Janus v. American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees, Council 31, the court ruled that public-sector unions could no longer require fees for representation from non-union members, overturning years of precedent and effectively making right-to-work the standard in public-sector unions.

News organizations were the black boxes of the pre-digital era, making news decisions about what to cover and how to cover it with little transparency or explanation. Where major news organizations were once gatekeepers, though, they’ve largely ceded that power to platforms, thanks to what the Pew Research Center calls the “packaging and delivery” of news through Facebook, Twitter, Google, Apple News and their ilk.

The 89th All-Star Game owed Nationals Park nothing more. It’s mere presence here, after all this time, was enough. And yet, as if out of a sense of obligation to make up for lost time, it delivered a little bit of history, a little bit of drama and a steady and unprecedented stream of long fly balls leaving the yard.
There were 10 homers on Tuesday night, obliterating a 47-year-old record for a single All-Star Game. In 1971, when six homers were launched, the hitters in question were Johnny Bench, Hank Aaron, Reggie Jackson, Frank Robinson, Harmon Killebrew and Roberto Clemente. This time, the 10 hitters were Aaron Judge, Mike Trout, Willson Contreras, Trevor Story, Christian Yelich, Jean Segura, Scooter Gennett, Bregman, Springer and Joey Votto WP

The public holiday on 4 July celebrates the declaration of independence from the British in 1776 with barbecues, bunting, fireworks, parades, picnics and patriotic songs – reassuring rituals of Americana designed to guard against an identity crisis. But this is 2018, Donald Trump is president and patriotism is even more complicated than usual.The Harry S Truman Library and Museum, which naturally has the US flag flying at the entrance, offers a study in contrast with the current incumbent of the White House.The Guardian

Leaders of school employee unions in California and nationwide know the future after Wednesday’s Supreme Court decision to strike down mandatory union fees: They’ll have to fight hard in faculty lounges, custodial offices and school bus depots to hold onto each member as anti-union forces try to pull them away.Declining enrollment and the growth of mostly non-union charter schools has already made inroads on membership of local unions, including United Teachers Los Angeles. Teachers union membership in L.A. Unified has dropped from 42,000 to 31,000 since 2007, according to the school system.
Now anti-union forces funded by conservatives and corporate interests plan an aggressive campaign to reduce union clout, even to “deliver the mortal blow” LATimes
The court's decision overturned a 1977 ruling that found unions can collect fees for non-political work that benefits all workers. Opponents of fair-share laws called the decision a win for workers who don't want to be forced to pay for political speech they disagree with, and claim the move will create more choice in the workplace.Public News Service
“Our goal is to not just win an election but to build a movement, which will allow us to lead into law the new agenda that this state so desperately needs,” Jealous told supporters at his Baltimore victory party.

President Trump on Monday escalated a feud with a veteran Democratic lawmaker who called for aggressive protests of administration officials, warning Rep. Maxine Waters of California to “Be careful what you wish for Max!” even as leaders in both parties cautioned against increasingly caustic political rhetoric.
Trump’s message, conveyed on Twitter, stood in sharp contrast to a call for civility by White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, whose ouster from a Virginia restaurant sparked a furious debate over whether opponents should take out their political frustrations against administration officials in their private lives.WP

US President Donald Trump said North Korean leader Kim Jong Un gave his “unwavering commitment” to work towards denuclearisation during their historic summit in Singapore on Tuesday (June 12), and they are prepared to “write a new chapter” between their countries.Mr Trump said the United States will stop the annual war games with South Korea, which North Korea opposes. Mr Kim, Chairman of the State Affairs Commission, agreed to destroy his country’s “major missile engine testing site He reaffirmed his unwavering commitment to the complete denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula."
On Tuesday morning at CNN, a chyron read: “Trump: U.S. to Stop ‘War Games’ with South Korea.”

About a third of the people I spoke to did vote, or intended to, and did know what was what. So my random and unscientific sampling, of about 20 people, matched some expert predictions that roughly 2 out of 3 registered voters would take a voting vacation Tuesday.Early numbers indicate that in-person voter turnout, not including mail-in ballots, was nearly 13% in Los Angeles County. In Orange County, the turnout was 13%, a figure that includes mail-in ballots reported by Tuesday evening.
Voter apathy is nothing new in California. L.A. has picked a mayor with 4 out of 5 eligible voters blowing off the election. School board elections have drawn even fewer voters.But this is the era of President Trump and the California resistance. We are in the middle of a national shouting match about the direction of the country, and there are no good excuses for making excuses about not voting.LATimes

I saw flashes and heard crackling. The crackling actually was all the other bullets being fired.”Witnesses reported that Kennedy said, “Is everybody okay? Is Paul all right?”Several other witnesses also said he was not close enough to place the gun against Kennedy’s back These witnesses provided more proof for those who insist a second gunman was involved.defense lawyer Grant Cooper made the decision not to contest the charge that Sirhan fired the fatal shot It is a standard tactic by attorneys in death-penalty cases, but Cooper, who died in 1990, was widely criticized for not investigating the case before conceding guilt.Experts who examined the three bullets said they had markings from different guns and different bullet manufacturers. An internal police document concluded that “Kennedy and Weisel bullets not fired from same gun” — Weisel was the wounded ABC News producer — and “Kennedy bullet not fired from Sirhan’s revolver.” Washington Post

Georgia Democrats selected the first black woman to be a major party nominee for governor in the United States on Tuesday, choosing Stacey Abrams, a liberal former State House leader, who will test just how much the state’s traditionally conservative politics are shifting.African-Americans made up about 30 percent of the electorate, and nine in 10 gave their votes to Jason Carter, the Democratic nominee and a grandson of the former president Jimmy Carter.But nearly two-thirds of voters in 2014 were white, according to exit polls. Mr. Carter lost his race by eight percentage points — and a little more than 200,000 votes — to Mr. Deal. Ms. Abrams will have to drive minority turnout far higher, without losing ground among whites, to avoid Mr. Carter’s fate. NYT

The launch of some 20 Iranian missiles at Israeli military sites, and Israel’s punishing response, is being called the most extensive confrontation in Syria since the 1973 Yom Kippur War.The volley came as little surprise, being launched after numerous warnings from the Israeli military that the Iranians were going to try something. Likewise the response was little surprise, as Israel had vowed to hit them back hard.The Ynet news website calls the overnight exchange “the start of the Israel-Iran war.”
"In light of what is happening in Syria at this moment, it is necessary to ensure the continued security coordination between the Russian army and the Israel Defense Forces. We remember the tragedies of the two world wars, about the lessons of history which do not allow us to become blind. The same old ugly traits are appearing along with new threats: egoism, intolerance, aggressive nationalism and claims to exceptionalism," V I Putin

Veteran reporter Dan Rather visited Kent State University on Friday as a part of the dedication to a portion of the college's campus into the National Historic Landmarks.May 4 marks the anniversary of 1970, where protesting students, observers and soldiers gathered, before the Ohio National Guard shot and killed four students and wounded nine others.
The 86 year old Rather talked to members of the press prior to the dedication of the land, where he answered questions about his career, this day in history, and on the state of America currently. Cleveland.com

Ohio’s Primary: The Heart of It All http://www.centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/articles/ohios-primary-the-heart-of-it-all/
Most of the world recognizes May 1—May Day—as International Workers’ Day. Here in one of the few countries that doesn’t, it’s worth pausing to ask how U.S. workers are doing.At an event last December, Fight for $15 organizer Terrence Wise recalled “going to bed at night, ignoring my own stomach’s rumbling, but having to hear my three little girls’ stomachs rumble. That’s something no parent should have to endure.”Wise was marking the launch of the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival.
Last month, the Institute for Policy Studies and the Poor People’s Campaign released The Souls of Poor Folk, a report on 50 years of change in the issues that affect working people, and particularly those at the bottom. We looked at systemic racism, poverty, militarism, and ecological devastation. People's World

In his absorbing new book, “A Higher Loyalty,” the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey calls the Trump presidency a “forest fire” that is doing serious damage to the country’s norms and traditions.“This president is unethical, and untethered to truth and institutional values,” Comey writes. “His leadership is transactional, ego driven and about personal loyalty.”New York Times
Comey wrote a thesis on the existential theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, who believed that Christians should “enter the political realm” to combat wrongdoing. On Twitter, where Comey has published landscape photographs that serenely confirm his belief in natural order, he even used Niebuhr’s name as his alias The Guardian

Secretly Taped Audio Reveals Democratic Leadership Pressuring Progressive to Leave Race
Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin R. Steele immediately argued that Cosby’s bail should be revoked and he be jailed. He argued that the entertainer has a plane and could flee.“This is somebody who has unlimited wealth,” Steele argued. “I don’t think any amount of bail can assure his presence under these circumstance.” Cosby spit back, yelling, almost as if to himself: “He doesn’t have a plane, you asshole.”Phill.com
Though the jury took very little time to find Mr. Cosby guilty, Michelle Dempsey, a law professor at Villanova University, cautioned that the verdict should not be regarded as a litmus test for #MeToo, but simply as a jury’s decision in a single case.More important, she said, is that the case is part of a shift in what she calls the “norms of accountability.” People can discuss abuse on Twitter, while many companies have beefed up harassment training.New York Times

Special elections tend to be low-turnout affairs, attracting only the most loyal voters. Normally, that sounds like a recipe for the older, more conservative voters who are the core of Arizona’s 8th Congressional District, which includes the Sun Cities.
Even adjusting for the anti-incumbent mood that can prevail in midterms, Lesko delivered a lackluster finish in the Republican-heavy district.“Even though Sen. Lesko has all the data behind her — in terms of party registration, name recognition, voters like her, they know her in that district — she’s still running scared,” said Richard Herrera, an Arizona State University associate professor of political science. “... That translates into the Republican Party being more risk-averse.” Arizona Central

The U.S. guided-missile destroyer USS Winston Churchill churned toward the Mediterranean to join a flotilla of allied warships, including another U.S. destroyer, the USS Donald Cook.While both vessels carry as many as 90 Tomahawk missiles -- the main weapon used in the Friday evening strike on Syria -- neither ship in the end fired a shot. Instead, according to a person familiar with White House war planning, they were part of a plan to distract Russia and Syrian.The Trump administration was also motivated by how closely the attack followed the use of a nerve agent to poison a Russian ex-spy and his daughter in England in March, an action the U.K. government and its allies blamed on Russia.
It was a ruse. Bloomberg

Art Bell was no ordinary talk show host, not just because "Coast to Coast AM" is the dominant live all-night show in America today, but because Art's a true radio fanatic, the ultimate "new media" personality. How many hosts get off the air after a four hour show, turn on another microphone, and talk to fellow Ham operators around the country? How many talk hosts have the engineering know-how to produce their own show, run their own technical board, and generally control the ebb and flow of the show from the first on- air minute to the last? Art Bell's grasp of the electronic revolution--and how to make it personal--is unique; he's a talk show host primed to influence 21st century America in more ways than one. Coast to Coast

Over the past nearly 20 years, I have had the good fortune to serve in many roles in Congress, and they have all helped me better serve you, my employers in southern Wisconsin.
Chairman of the Budget Committee, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee and speaker of the House are all nice positions, and I have accomplished a lot. However, my titles of husband and father have always been my most cherished, and that is why I have decided that my current term as your congressman will be my last one. Paul Ryan

Born long before the digital era took hold, the mostly gray-haired members of the Senate Judiciary and Commerce committees came to grill Mark Zuckerberg, the errant 33-year-old CEO who came before them in his uncustomary suit and periwinkle tie on Tuesday afternoon.And for very good reason, since Facebook — where billions of people all over the world get their news, whether true or false — has been incredibly irresponsible and cavalier with users’ personal information. That was made clear last month in the blockbuster news that Facebook had allowed the phone numbers, emails and in some cases text messages of 87 million users to get into the hands of a data firm, Cambridge Analytica, bent on electing Donald Trump as president.WP
Senator CANTWELL: Do you believe European regulations should be applied here in the U.S.?ZUCKERBERG: Senator, I think everyone in the world deserves good privacy protection. And, regardless of whether we implement the exact same regulation, I would guess that it would be somewhat different, because we have somewhat different sensibilities in the U.S. as to other countries.We're committed to rolling out the controls and the affirmative consent and the special controls around sensitive types of technology, like face recognition, that are required in GDPR. We're doing that around the world.So I think it's certainly worth discussing whether we should have something similar in the U.S. But what I would like to say today is that we're going to go forward and implement that, regardless of what the regulatory outcome is.
FBI agents executed a series of search warrants on the law office and Park Avenue apartment of Trump’s longtime personal lawyer Michael Cohen. “I just heard that they broke into the office of one of my personal attorneys, a good man,” DJ Trump told reporters at the White House. “It’s a disgraceful situation. … I’ve been saying it for a long time. I have this witch hunt constantly going on.”The president portrayed the seizures in almost treasonous terms, framing them not solely as an attack on him but on all Americans.“It's an attack on our country, in a true sense,” Trump declared. “It's an attack on what we all stand for.”
“Today the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York executed a series of search warrants and seized the privileged communications between my client, Michael Cohen, and his clients,” Cohen’s attorney, Stephen Ryan, said in a statement. “I have been advised by federal prosecutors that the New York action is, in part, a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller.” Politico

As the nation prepares to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we should dwell not merely on how Dr. King died but also on how he lived.He mobilized mass action to win a public accommodations bill and the right to vote. He led the Montgomery bus boycott and navigated police terror in Birmingham. He got us over the bloodstained bridge in Selma and survived the rocks and bottles and hatred in Chicago. He globalized our struggle to end the war in Vietnam.How he lived is why he died.As he sought to move beyond desegregation and the right to vote, to focus his work on economic justice, antimilitarism and human rights, the system pushed back hard. In the last months of his life, he was attacked by the government, the press, former allies and the military industrial complex. Rev Jesse Jackson Chicago
Tens of thousands of Oklahoma teachers and educators poured onto the lawns and streets surrounding the state capitol on Monday as part of a massive walkout over state school funding. Under gray morning skies, a group of music teachers hefted brass instruments and blasted into the opening chords of a classic rock song synonymous with fist-pumping, 1980s MTV and big hair.
"We're not gonna take it!" the crowd of teachers belted in unison, according to a video capturing their rendition of Twisted Sister's 1984 hit. "No, we ain't gonna take it! We're not gonna take it, anymore!"Eight hundred miles east, the marble atrium of the Kentucky State Capitol building in Frankfort was clogged with hundreds of teachers protesting drastic cuts to their pension plan. Again, the educators packed into the government building threaded together their outraged voices to the metal anthem's melody.
"We're not gonna take it!" the Kentucky teachers shouted. "We're not gonna take it, anymore!"
Last month, decades of budget cuts and salary paralysis led teachers in West Virginia to mount a campaign against the state government, culminating in a nine-day strike that forced the closure of the state's schools but eventually won teachers a five percent pay increase.Washington Post
The Westgate bookmakers opened both World Series champion Houston and runner-up Los Angeles at odds of -1100 to make the playoffs, meaning a bet of $1,100 is required to make a $100 profit. Gamblers who want to take shots the other way can get +700 odds (7/1) on either team not making the playoffs. In that case, a winning $100 bet would result in a $700 profit.
The Nationals have the next shortest odds to make the playoffs, opening at -700 at the Westgate.
The Yankees (-400) and Cubs (-340) round out the top five, and the Red Sox (-310) are sixth from the top.
When I bring up player harassment in baseball, people often tell me to relax and/or shut up. Often the rationale is that talking about one abuser means I would need to be upset about many, many teams and players — which I am, and I don’t think it’s terrific logic anyway. This year, my hope is that, propelled by the #MeToo moment, MLB will actually do something about this problem.I want more people having conversations like the ones journalists Jay Caspian Kang and Alvin Chang have inspired on baseball’s “unbearable whiteness.” I want to focus on the exploitation of players — of Minor Leaguers, of those recruited from Latin America Some social progress is happening already, but it’s long overdue: For instance, this is the final season the Cleveland baseball club will use its disgusting Chief Wahoo logo.

In 1939 the Supreme Court unanimously held that Congress could prohibit the possession of a sawed-off shotgun because that weapon had no reasonable relation to the preservation or efficiency of a “well regulated militia.”During the years when Warren Burger was our chief justice, from 1969 to 1986, no judge, federal or state, as far as I am aware, expressed any doubt as to the limited coverage of that amendment.
Chief Justice Burger publicly characterized the N.R.A. as perpetrating “one of the greatest pieces of fraud, I repeat the word fraud, on the American public by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime.”In 2008, the Supreme Court overturned Chief Justice Burger’s and others’ long-settled understanding of the Second Amendment’s limited reach by ruling, in District of Columbia v. Heller, that there was an individual right to bear arms. I was among the four dissenters. John Paul Stevens

It is impossible at this time of year not to think of my mother, who was Irish to her core, in ways both good and bad. She was a Cavanagh, and it was she who took me by the hand to my very first St. Patrick’s Day Parade, which also happened to be the first to be held on State Street.This was in 1956, and I don’t remember, though can logically assume, that new Mayor Richard J. Daley led the parade. But I have always remembered something my mother told me that day.
She was not smiling as were the hundreds around us as the parade passed, and when I asked, “Why aren’t you happy?” she said, “The Irish have not always had a happy time of it.” ChicagoTribunme

Conor Lamb spoke to his supporters just before 12:45 a.m. as absentee votes were still being counted.“It took longer than we thought, but we did it,” he said, even though results had not yet been released.kDKA TV
The unofficial total for absentee ballots in Washington County, shows Democrat Conor Lamb with 609 votes and Republican Rick Saccone, 547.
Democrats, meanwhile, may say that Mr. Lamb has shown that candidates can be competitive in districts won by Mr. Trump. Terry Madonna, a veteran pollster at Franklin & Marshall College, said, “Moving forward, that tells Democrats that in districts Trump won by 8, 10, 12 even 20 points not to nationalize the race.”
Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald praised the candidate. "Conor is a great candidate and he ran a great campaign. ... I've never seen a campaign with so much grassroots enthusiasm."Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
On paper, the Pennsylvania special election on Tuesday could appear inconsequential. The winner will serve out the rest of this year while most legislating is on pause so lawmakers can run for reelection. And the district won’t even exist in its current form come November, thanks to a redrawn map recently ordered by the state Supreme Court. But the race could have far-reaching implications for the strategy of both parties, both in Pennsylvania and nationally.WP
Tuesday will likely be the last time you hear about a competitive district in the Pennsylvania 18th, but whoever emerges victorious in the special will likely have to fight hard to keep his seat in the regularly scheduled November 2018 election. How can this be? Earlier this year, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court struck down the state’s current congressional map as too gerrymandered in favor of the GOP; in February, the court imposed new district lines that are friendlier to Democrats. The new map splits most of the current 18th District between the new heavily Republican 14th District and the swingier, suburban 17th District. 538

2018 March Madness Predictions https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2018-march-madness-predictions/
The Republican Congress passed the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act , a bill that set the USPS’s pricing scheme for the next decade. Included almost as a footnote in this legislation was an ambitious requirement: The USPS would prepay decades of employee health-care benefits over only 10 years, at a rate of about $5 billion a year. The Post Office ponied up for the first few years, but then the Depression hit and mail volume from large companies dropped off. The annual $5 billion obligation became too much, and the USPS stopped paying.
The result has been what Steve Hutkins, an NYU professor who runs the blog Save the Post Office, called a “manufactured crisis” that has fueled conservative arguments that the USPS should be privatized. The Nation by Jake Bittle

Democratic turnout in the Texas primary has hit its highest level in a midterm election since 2002, a reflection of the nationwide momentum for liberal candidates opposing President Donald Trump. At least 700,000 people voted in the Democratic primary election for U.S. Senate won Tuesday by U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke. That surpasses the last three midterms. Just over 1 million people voted in the Democratic primary in 2002.Austin Stateman
Texas Democrats and Republicans on Tuesday picked their party's nominees for the November general election with different goals in mind.Republicans enjoy a structural advantage in statewide elections, and midterm contest are usually opportunities to boost their majorities and extend clout. Democrats are rebuilding and trying to be competitive.But this year, based on the enthusiasm among the high number of primary voters, Democrats have the rare opportunity to make gains in Texas.Dallas Morning News

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan is now the “father” to millions of Black men and women who themselves never had a father, and the “Pops” to Grammy Award-winning singer and Broadway actress Stephanie Mills. The man whose life was saved from cancer and from a death plot spawned by the enemies of Black people, boldly declared repeatedly: “Here I stand!” for the freedom of oppressed people in the United States and throughout the world in a thrilling three hour Saviours’ Day address.

Marvel Comics’s Black Panther was originally conceived in 1966 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, two Jewish New Yorkers, as a bid to offer black readers a character to identify with. The titular hero, whose real name is T’Challa, is heir apparent to the throne of Wakanda, a fictional African nation.
The character of Lieutenant Uhura, played by Nichelle Nichols, was so vital for African-Americans — the black woman of the future as an accomplished philologist — that, as Nichols told NPR, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. himself persuaded her not to quit the show after the first season. It was a symbol of great progress that she was conceived as something more than a maid New York Times Magazine

Facebook had invited its employees to submit potential questions to ask Zuckerberg at an all-hands meeting. One of the most up-voted questions that week was “What responsibility does Facebook have to help prevent President Trump in 2017?” Fearnow took another screenshot, this time with his phone.Fearnow, a recent graduate of the Columbia Journalism School, worked in Facebook’s New York office on something called Trending Topics, a feed of popular news subjects that popped up when people opened Facebookhe firing of Fearnow and Villarreal set the Trending Topics team on edge—and Nuñez kept digging for dirt. He soon published a story about the internal poll showing Facebookers’ interest in fending off Trump. Then, in early May, he published an article based on conversations with yet a third former Trending Topics employee, under the blaring headline “Former Facebook Workers: We Routinely Suppressed Conservative News.”

That good times may be nearing at end if Wall Street is anything to go by. U.S. stocks plunged in highly volatile trading on Monday, with the Dow industrials falling nearly 1,600 points during the session, its biggest intraday decline in history, as investors grappled with rising bond yields and potentially higher inflation.“Where does the market rout end? I think we are pretty close to a selling climax here. The fundamentals are pretty good. The only thing that is really different is that bond yields got up to 2.8 percent.”The benchmark S&P 500 slumped 4.1 percent and the Dow 4.6 percent, suffering their biggest percentage drops since August 2011 as a long-awaited pullback from record highs deepened.Reuters

Air Force One on a flight home from Europe last July, President Trump and his advisers raced to cobble together a news release about a mysterious meeting at Trump Tower the previous summer between Russians and top Trump campaign officials. Rather than acknowledge the meeting’s intended purpose — to obtain political dirt about Hillary Clinton from the Russian government — the statement instead described the meeting as being about an obscure Russian adoption policy. Mark Corallo, who served as a spokesman for Mr. Trump’s legal team before resigning in July. Mr. Corallo received an interview request last week from the special counsel and has agreed to the interview, according to three people with knowledge of the request.
Mr. Corallo is planning to tell Mr. Mueller about a previously undisclosed conference call with Mr. Trump and Hope Hicks, the White House communications director, according to the three people. Mr. Corallo planned to tell investigators that Ms. Hicks said during the call that emails written by Donald Trump Jr. before the Trump Tower meeting — in which the younger Mr. Trump said he was eager to receive political dirt about Mrs. Clinton from the Russians — “will never get out.” That left Mr. Corallo with concerns that Ms. Hicks could be contemplating obstructing justice.NYT
We have grave concerns about the material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy,” the FBI said.
I'm absolutely certain what he will NOT be talking about," he wrote in an email to supporters. "He will surely not be apologizing for the many lies he told American voters: how he promised to defend the interests of working people, but then sold them out to Wall Street and the billionaire class."He added that Trump would "also not be talking about the role that he has played in significantly lowering the respect that people all over the planet have for the United States" or "his support for authoritarianism abroad."

Amazon.com Inc will open its checkout-free grocery store to the public on Monday after more than a year of testing, the company said, moving forward on an experiment that could dramatically alter brick-and-mortar retail.The Seattle store, known as Amazon Go, relies on cameras and sensors to track what shoppers remove from the shelves, and what they put back. Cash registers and checkout lines become superfluous – customers are billed after leaving the store using credit cards on fileThe idea is that Amazon's machine-learning technology can automatically identify when a product is added to your cart, so you don't have to do it yourself. When you leave the store, Amazon automatically charges your Amazon account..The stores will sell ready-made food, staples like bread and milk, and other grocery products. At 1,800 square feet, the store is relatively small compared with big supermarkets.Reuters
The San Ysidro-Tijuana border crossing in California, for instance, is the world’s busiest: It’s an entry point to a binational region with a gross annual product of more than $220 billion, according to data from UC San Diego’s Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies. Every day, it is traversed by approximately 63,000 pedestrians, 120,000 passenger vehicles and 6,000 trucks.Fonna Forman of UC San Diego’s Cross-Border Initiative, told me. “We have always believed that the wall, and the border region more generally, is a site of cultural, artistic and architectural experimentation. And in this sense, it is a laboratory for border region development across the globe.”“There is obviously a lot of fear and uncertainty in the border communities in which we work,” Forman told me.Ruxandra Guidi
DHS estimates that of the 45 million immigrants who entered the U.S. by air or by sea on tourist or business visas that expired in 2015, roughly 416,500 were still living in the country in 2016. That’s excluding those who entered via land boundaries—DHS did not release that data—so, the total number of visa overstays in 2016 is likely much higher. (By comparison, between2011 and 2016, at the southern border ranged from 328,000 to 479,000 per year.) Politico

Activists are returning to the streets a year after a million people rallied worldwide at marches for female empowerment, hoping to create an enduring political movement that will elect more women to government office.ast year, for example, an estimated 175,000 people descended on Boston Common. This year, Massachusetts organizers coordinated 16 separate events across the state, from panel discussions and film screenings to activism training in places ranging from the university city of Cambridge to the fishing hub of New Bedford."We weren't going to be satisfied by repeating merely what we did on Boston Common last year," said Karen Cosmas, one of the coordinators. "It's time to show that what we've done has evolved over the past year into something more action-oriented.""Last year, we marched. This year, we're putting our numbers to action," said Emma Collum, a Fort Lauderdale, Fla., lawyer who is an organizer of "Power to the Polls," an event scheduled for Sunday in Las Vegas. It is meant to kick off a national voter-registration tour of swing states , organizers say. WSJ

African American woman in America has a higher chance of dying during or right after pregnancy than a woman in developing areas of Central Europe or Eastern Asia. What’s more, what Williams had to go through is especially revealing about the medical bias faced by black women.According to American College of Obstetrics and gynecology, at least 46% of maternal deaths among African- American women could be prevented (versus 33% for white women), which points to a systematic dismissal of symptoms and patient complaints, and less attention paid overall. Indeed, how race bias affects the medical profession is well documented.Indeed, even Serena Williams, whose body, as her husband correctly notes, “is one of the greatest things on this planet,” is just another black woman when it comes to being heard in the maternity ward—and when it comes to being dismissed.
“African-American doctors, lawyers, business executives, and they still have a higher infant-mortality rate than…white women who never went to high school in the first place,” Michael Lu

Stephen K. Bannon left his position as executive chairman of Breitbart News Network on Tuesday, ending his relationship with the far-right website that he helped become widely influential and that in turn abetted his rise as a political adviser and would-be kingmaker.Bannon’s departure — just days after his public criticisms of former White House colleagues led to a spectacular falling-out with President Trump and his allies — was a humbling denouement for a figure who had reached the uppermost levels of power only a year ago. It leaves him with no evident platform to promote his views and no major financial backer for his preferred candidates.His departure from Breitbart followed what appears to have been a vote of no confidence from a key supporter and investor in the website, Rebekah Mercer, Mercer’s ire by making critical comments about Trump and his family to author Michael Wolff in a book, Bannon is quoted as saying that Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, engaged in “treasonous” behavior by secretly meeting with Russian representatives during the campaign to get unflattering information about Trump’s opponent, Hillary Clinton.
“The groundskeeper at the country club didn’t do a good job, so the president got a new groundskeeper,” Gingrich said, describing Bannon’s exit from the White House. When asked if he was calling Bannon a groundskeeper — those who tend to the greens and fairways at golf courses — Gingrich said, “Yes.”If you decide that you’re so important that you can take on the president’s daughter, son-in-law, and two sons, and you lose, it has a lot of consequences" WP.

I interviewedDonald Trump for The Hollywood Reporterin June 2016, and he seemed to have liked — or not disliked — the piece I wrote. "Great cover!" his press assistant, Hope Hicks, emailed me after it came . After the election, I proposed to him that I come to the White House and report an inside story for later publication — journalistically, as a fly on the wall Steve Bannon tried to gamely suggest that Trump was mere front man and that he, with plan and purpose and intellect, was, more reasonably, running the show — commanding a whiteboard of policies and initiatives that he claimed to have assembled from Trump's off-the-cuff ramblings and utterances.
The president had a lot of weird feelings about Jared Kushner being Jewish: “For Trump, giving Israel to Kushner was not only a test, it was a Jewish test: the president was singling him out for being Jewish, rewarding him for being Jewish, saddling him with an impossible hurdle for being Jewish — and, too, defaulting to the stereotyping belief in the negotiating power of Jews. ‘Dr Henry Kissinger says Jared is going to be the new Henry Kissinger,’ Trump said more than once, rather a combined compliment and slur.” Variety

“2017 was the first year that Ad Results Media’s clients spent more in podcasting than radio?—?all because the revenue from podcasts is growing so quickly. To put this into context: as podcasts audiences continue to grow, Ad Results Media has seen rates for podcast ads go up as much as 4,000 percent proportionally.”
The wider industry’s ad revenue reflects this growth: between 2016 and 2017, ad revenue grew 85 percent and is expected to reach more than $220 million by the end of 2017.
How close is the podcast industry to adopting standards across the board?Once the leading companies implement them, we’re going to get to a level playing field where everybody is speaking about the same numbers when it comes to a download.

Well, I was talking about the crisis of black elite leadership. When it comes to black leaders, if the model is to be successful but not publicly attack white supremacy — well, then that’s really about success to fit in. Fitting in, in a neoliberal world, is to be well adjusted to injustice. I’ll give you an example: Dear brother Ta-Nehisi Coates has just come out with a new book.Yes. “We Were Eight Years in Power.” Who’s the “we”? When’s the last time he’s been through the ghetto, in the hoods, to the schools and indecent housing and mass unemployment? We were in power for eight years? My God. Maybe he and some of his friends might have been in power, but not poor working people.Dr Cornel West
“The symbolic power of Barack Obama’s presidency – that whiteness was no longer strong enough to prevent peons taking up residence in the castle – assaulted the most deeply rooted notions of white supremacy and instilled fear in its adherents and beneficiaries,And it was that fear that gave the symbols Donald Trump deployed – the symbols of racism – enough potency to make him president, and thus put him in position to injure the world.Throughout his eight years in office, Barack Obama endured a campaign of illegitimacy waged either by pluralities or majorities of the Republican party. Donald Trump rooted his candidacy in that campaign. It’s fairly obvious." Ta-Nehisi Coates
OF ALL THE RICH, INSTRUCTIVE, UPLIFT-ING and expansive ways to express the central meaning and message of Kwanzaa, none is more vital or valuable than our seeing and embracing it as a season and celebration of creating and sharing good in the world.

During each eight-hour shift, he stands at the store entrance greeting customersYears ago, Coomer and his co-workers at the Tulsa plant of McDonnell Douglas, the famed airplane maker, were enrolled in the company pension, but in 1994, with an eye toward cutting retirement costs, the company closed the plant.“After they shut the plant down, I would dream that I was back at McDonnell Douglas and going to get my pension,” Coomer recalled. “In the dream, I would try to clock in but I couldn’t find my time card. And then I’d wake up.” WP

“Fair question. I’ve got to have the evidence, and I don’t have it yet,” Freeman responded. “Let me just say it’s not my fault. So if it isn’t my fault, who didn’t do their job? Investigators.(Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension) They don’t work for me. They haven’t done their job.”Freeman said coming to a decision “is the big present I want under the Christmas tree.” Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman
“We are deeply concerned that the initial investigation was not done properly and with the greatest of integrity and sense of completeness,” Mr Ruszczyk said at the Sydney press conference on Thursday.Mr Ruszczyk said he had earlier been assured that “all necessary information to make a reasoned decision on whether or not to charge Justine’s shooter” would be provided to the County Attorney by the BCA.
Their story reveals the stubborn persistence of harassment in an industry once the exclusive preserve of men, where abuses can be especially brazen. For the Ford women, the harassment has endured even though they work for a multinational corporation with a professional human resources operation, even though they are members of one of the country’s most powerful unions, even though a federal agency and then a federal judge sided with them, and even after independent monitors policed the factory floors for several years.
Workers describe a mix of sex, swagger, suspicion and racial resentment that makes the factories — the Chicago Assembly Plant and the Chicago Stamping Plant — particularly volatile.
The plants are self-enclosed worlds where employees pass on job referrals so relatives, classmates and longtime friends can work together. They share gossip and rumors, but also keep secrets that entrench bad behavior. New Times
.Since 2011, Iran has worked to establish itself as a prominent aggressor in cyberspace, alongside China, Russia and North Korea. Evolving from mere website defacement and crude censorship domestically in the early 2000s, Iran wasn’t pursuing cyber capabilities with much urgency, experts say, until it was revealed in 2010 that a joint Israeli-U.S. Stuxnet worm sabotaged nuclear centrifuges at Iran’s facility in Natanz Cipher Brief
Cybersecurity isn't easy, but simple principles still apply. Accountability is one, cooperation another. They are the cornerstones of security and resilience in any society. In furtherance of both, and after careful investigation, the U.S. today publicly attributes the massive "WannaCry" cyberattack to North Korea.
The attack spread indiscriminately across the world in May. It encrypted and rendered useless hundreds of thousands of computers in hospitals, schools, businesses and homes. While victims received ransom demands, paying did not unlock their computers. It was cowardly, costly and careless. The attack was widespread and cost billions, and North Korea is directly responsible.Wall Street Journal

Effective today, PBS has indefinitely suspended distribution of ‘Tavis Smiley,’ produced by TS Media, an independent production company,” the public broadcaster said. “PBS engaged an outside law firm to conduct an investigation immediately after learning of troubling allegations regarding Mr. Smiley. This investigation included interviews with witnesses as well as with Mr. Smiley. The inquiry uncovered multiple, credible allegations of conduct that is inconsistent with the values and standards of PBS, and the totality of this information led to today’s decision.”
If having a consensual relationship with a colleague years ago is the stuff that leads to this kind of public humiliation and personal destruction, heaven help us. Indeed, I learned more about these allegations reading the Variety story than the PBS investigator shared with me, the accused, in our 3 hour face to face meeting.My attorneys were sent a formal letter invoking a contractual provision to not distribute my programming, and that was it.Put simply, PBS overreacted and conducted a biased and sloppy investigation, which led to a rush to judgment, and trampling on a reputation that I have spent an entire lifetime trying to establish.This has gone too far. And, I, for one, intend to fight back.Tavis Smiley
Tuesday’s special U.S. Senate election in Alabama was never destined to bring good news for the Republican Party, no matter the outcome. But the stunning victory by Democrat Doug Jones was a devastating blow to a party wracked by divisions and intraparty rivalries and a humiliating defeat for President Trump.For those reasons, many Republicans will privately be pleased to see Bannon and even Trump get their comeuppance. But that doesn’t resolve the split within the party over the direction it should take. As long as Trump is president, this is the division and the reality that Republicans will live with — an uneasy coalition at best. Dan Balz Washington Post
Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory. The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of Alabama are great, and the Republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time. It never ends! Donald J. TrumpVerified account@realDonaldTrump

The actions of the junior Senator from Wisconsin have caused alarm and dismay amongst our allies abroad, and given considerable comfort to our enemies. And whose fault is that? Not really his. He didn't create this situation of fear; he merely exploited it—and rather successfully. Cassius was right: "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves. Joe"Gunner McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in the United States in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread Communist subversion. He is known for alleging that numerous Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers had infiltrated the United States federal government, universities, film industry, and elsewhere. Edward R. Murrow
I know in my heart that nothing I have done as a Senator – nothing – has brought dishonor on this institution. I am confident that the Ethics Committee would agree.Nevertheless, today I am announcing that, in the coming weeks, I will be resigning as a member of the United States Senate.I, of all people, am aware that there is some irony in the fact that I am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the Oval Office Al Franken of Minnesota

"My legacy can’t be compromised or diminished in any way by what we’re going through now. This too shall pass. … My legacy will continue through my children," Conyers told Gaddis. "I am retiring today and I want everyone to know how much I appreciate the ... incredible, undiminished support I’ve received across the years from my supporters, not only from my district but across the country as well."
As for the accusations against him, "They're not accurate, they're not true and they're something I can't explain where they came from." John Conyers
U.S. Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., who is a member with Conyers of the Congressional Black Caucus co-founded by Conyers, said, “You can't jump to conclusions with these types of things,” adding that the allegations “could be made up.”
President Theodore Roosevelt proclaimed Devils Tower National Monument on September 24, 1906. President Roosevelt also used it to create the Grand Canyon National Monument – the first step in protecting that place of great historic and scientific interest.
Five Native American tribes announced plans to file a lawsuit challenging his pair of proclamations to shrink Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments.A coalition of five tribes — Hopi, Navajo Nation, Ute Mountain Ute, Pueblo of Zuni and Ute Indian — claim Trump has no legal authority to shrink the Bears Ears designation.Ethel Branch, attorney general for the Navajo Nation, called Trump's proclamation "a tremendous affront to tribal sovereignty," and said he "overstepped his authority" to do it."Any action by the administration to erase or permanently damage these national monuments is not only illegal but also an insult to the owners of this land — the American people — and will be challenged by the Wilderness Society in court".

Agriculture in the United States is at the breaking point. Farmers over the age of 65 now outnumber farmers under 35 by a margin of six to one, and U.S. farmland is overwhelmingly concentrated in the hands of older farmers. Nearly two-thirds of farmland is currently managed by someone over 55.The National Agricultural Statistics Service estimates that over the next five years—the lifespan of the next farm bill—nearly 100 million acres of U.S. farmland are expected to change ownership and will need a new farmer.
n January and February 2017, the National Young Farmers Coalition conducted a National Young Farmer Survey to ensure our work is grounded in the needs of young farmers and to offer policymakers recommendations to address these needs ahead of the next farm bill.

Assembled, weaved, created

To break the king’s command, the slaver’s yoke
And slay the Nazi beast.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), under your leadership, soon will release rules to dismantle your agency’s existing “net neutrality” protections under Title II of the Communications Act, which shield the public from anti-consumer behaviors of the giant cable companies that provide high-speed internet to most people. In today’s digital age, the rules that govern the operation and delivery of internet service to hundreds of millions of Americans are critical to the economic and social well-being of the nation. Yet the process the FCC has employed to consider potentially sweeping alterations to current net neutrality rules has been corrupted by the fraudulent use of Americans’ identities — and the FCC has been unwilling to assist my office in our efforts to investigate this unlawful activity .Eric T.

Moore spoke for a couple of minutes with reporters and took no questions. His wife, Kayla, also made a brief statement."I can tell you without hesitation this is absolutely false," Moore told reporters. "I never did what she said I did. I don't even know the woman. I don't know anything about her."Kayla Moore defended her husband.

The former Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce Castor alleges that Andrea Constand and her lawyers orchestrated a smear campaign, including a defamation lawsuit of their own against Castor, that cost him the 2015 election to Kevin Steele Constand, Canadian police in 2005, telling them that between mid-January and mid-February of 2004, Cosby had given her pills that made her dizzy and weak, and then sexually assaulted her in his suburban Philadelphia estate. Canadian police then alerted Pennsylvania authorities. The civil case was settled confidentially and sealed on Nov. 8, 2006 Cosby paid a settlement to Constand "well into the millions of dollars," according to the Castor lawsuit filed this week. ABC News

Democratic gubernatorial nominee Ralph Northam said Wednesday that he would sign a bill to ban so-called sanctuary cities if a Virginia locality tries to become one in the future.Polls show a fairly close race, with Northam slightly favored to win. An average of the last 10 surveys give Northam a 46 percent-to-43 percent advantage. Over the past month, there has been a tightening of the race, with Gillespie closing what had been a 6-point lead.

In this case, Hodges could still win if chosen second-choice by all voters.

More than ever, we must learn not only about the individual problems of sexism, racism, classism, ableism, transphobia, homophobia, biphobia, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, and xenophobia — we must understand how they intersect," the Women's March posted on its convention website.

The arbitration rule, in many ways, encapsulated the consumer bureau’s work: It was independent and designed to fill a regulatory gap. The rule was the first major check on arbitration since a pair of Supreme Court decisions, in 2011 and 2013, enshrined its widespread use.As arbitration clauses appeared in tens of millions of contracts, the consumer agency was specifically mandated to study arbitration under the Dodd-Frank financial law in 2010. That effort culminated in a 728-page report, released in March 2015, that challenged longstanding assumptions about arbitration.The agency found that once blocked from suing, few people went to arbitration at all. And the results for those who did were dismal. During the two-year period studied, only 78 arbitration claims resulted in judgments in favor of consumers, who got $400,000 in total relief.
Senator Sherrod Brown, Democrat of Ohio, said the Republicans had betrayed ordinary Americans. “By voting to take rights away from customers,” he said, “the Senate voted tonight to side with Wells Fargo lobbyists over the people we serve.” New York Times
“Tonight’s vote is a giant setback for every consumer in this country,” Richard Cordray, the director of the consumer bureau, said in a statement. “As a result, companies like Wells Fargo and Equifax remain free to break the law without fear of legal blowback from their customers.”
These two great teams are so evenly matched that I'm not confident the difference between them would show up in a best-of-163-game series, let alone best of seven. Given the benefits of home field and the extra days of rest and rotation-setting, the Dodgers start with small edges. By the time the Series goes back to Houston, those edges might well have flipped. - Sam Miller, ESPN

But there was a difference. Moon, an urban activist, bluntly talked about racial privilege and class identity as root causes of Seattle's problems, to be rooted out.The Emerald City, she argued, has been at the beck and call of "white people who have access to power and think they are superior." The solution is a city government, top to bottom, of "racial, gender and income equity." Cary Moon SeattlePI

Judge Roy Moore to the Republican race for Senate two weeks ago, the state's remaining Democrats began rubbing their hands together conspiratorially, eager to begin taking on arguably the least popular Republican candidate in Alabama.It was all set up for them, Doug Jones with his reputation for high morals and general likability up against a man who has been twice removed from office and who garnered less than 52% of the statewide vote in 2012 when running to reclaim the position of Chief Justice.
In the poll 51% of special general election voters identify as fans of the Alabama Crimson Tide, while only 22% support the Auburn Tigers. ?Moore has higher support than Jones among both Alabama (54%-38%) and Auburn (50%-45% Moore graduated from Alabama.

“I've never been to a school where I was called to come get my child, and no one would talk to me about what’s going on," said Kizzy Landry, India's mother.“She can't come to my school if she won't stand for the pledge," Kizzy said the principal told her.
It’s something India has done for as long as she can remember.“I don’t think that the flag is what it says it’s for, for liberty and justice and all that. It's not obviously what's going on in America today," India said.
It’s never been a problem - until now.

A three-judge federal panel has ordered the Wisconsin Legislature to redraw the state assembly map that the court struck down as an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander by November 1, 2017.The panel declared that the state house plan adopted by Wisconsin’s Republican-controlled legislature in 2011 was an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander that violated both the Equal Protection Clause and the plaintiffs’ First Amendment freedom of association.Wisconsin filed an appeal on February 24, 2017, asking the Supreme Court to review the decision striking down the map.
The Court also granted the state's request to stay the decision of the lower court while it considers the case.The Court heard oral argument in the case on October 3. Brennan Center for Justice

Hugh Hefner, the incurable playboy who built a publishing and entertainment empire on the idea that Americans should shed their puritanical hang-ups and enjoy sex This combination of flesh and intellectuality made Playboy the world's bestselling men's magazine and Hefner a millionaire many times over. The venture gave him a pulpit from which to preach the virtues of a postwar revolution in morality and propelled sex into the American mainstream. Feminist Gloria Steinem fired one of the first shots when she posed as a Bunny and wrote a scathing expose in Show magazine in 1963. “Reading Playboy,” she later said, “feels a little like a Jew reading a Nazi manual.”.LATimes

The Graham-Cassidy bill would reallocate funding now devoted to the Affordable Care Act exchanges and the law’s expansion of Medicaid and give it to states in the form of block grants. States in theory would have great flexibility to create their own health care systems, though only two years to do it.The block grants would grow according to an index lower than general inflation — not according to how many people are covered or what diseases they have — so the total pot would grow more slowly than under current law. All funding would be terminated by 2027, unless Congress acted at the time to continue it.
“The Graham-Cassidy bill would significantly reduce funding to states over the long term, particularly for states that have already expanded Medicaid,” said Caroline Pearson, senior vice president at Avalere. “States would have broad flexibility to shape their markets but would have less funding to subsidize coverage for low- and middle-income individuals.”

Baba Dick Gregory, the pioneering satirist who transformed cool humor into a barbed force for civil rights in the 1960s, then veered from his craft for a life devoted to protest and fasting in the name of assorted social causes, health regimens and conspiracy theories, died Saturday in Washington. He was 84.
It is with enormous sadness that the Gregory family confirms that their father, comedic legend and civil rights activist Mr. Dick Gregory departed this earth tonight in Washington, DC. The family appreciates the outpouring of support and love and respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time. More details will be released over the next few days - Christian Gregory

“He never let himself stray from what he felt about music. I think that’s where the consistency comes from. It had to work for him in a simple way. Sometimes, we do orchestrations and get a lot of instruments going, but it was usually pretty simple. He always was the rudder that kept the bowel pointed in the right direction, to use a sailing term. It was wonderful how he could always take different kinds of songs, and by the time he was done with them, they all kind of fit together in a really wonderful way.” Garth Fundis producer Billboard

Republican hopes that the GOP was finally back in sync ahead of a brutal fall of fiscal deadlines.Not 24 hours later, the president cut a deal with Democrats on a short-term debt ceiling increase opposed by McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan. Just Wednesday morning, in fact, Ryan had scoffed at the Democratic offer that Trump accepted minutes later.“Today was a good day, in a generally very partisan town,” Schumer said. The minority leader said Trump was presented with a GOP deal and a Democratic one, and he “went with the better argument.”“It’s just a betrayal of everything we’ve been talking about for years as Republicans,” said former Sen.

“I think there were a lot of folks who listen to my show, who turned out at these rallies for DJ Trump, who really loved his ‘America first’ message,” Ingraham said. “There are ways to be compassionate to people short of giving them work permits and federal benefits.” Laura Ingraham, who has been friendly with the president for years, dismissed news coverage of DACA recipients as “sob stories.” DJ Trump has temporarily placed the fates of roughly 800,000 undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children in the hands of Congress, buying himself time and shunting responsibility.
Immigration can be a controversial topic. We all want safe, secure borders and a dynamic economy, and people of goodwill can have legitimate disagreements about how to fix our immigration system so that everybody plays by the rules.But that’s not what the action that the White House took today is about.

Happy Labour Day !
The average worker today shoulders more risk for her retirement and health care than in past generations, and enjoys less job security as the idea of a job for life has vanished . The traditional bond between employer and employee--in which companies provided job and retirement security in exchange for hard work and loyalty--has eroded so much that young workers today "don't even know what they're missing," says Rick Wartzman, a management expert and author of "The End of Loyalty: The Rise and Fall of Good Jobs in America," released in May by PublicAffairs.WSJ Conference Board study

President Donald Trump came to Phoenix and, at least as far as he and his rabid supporters are concerned, ferreted out the real problem.
Can you guess? Yes. The media. DJ Trump, speaking before an adoring crowd, called the media the “real source” of division in the country. He spent nearly 45 minutes of a rambling, remarkably disturbing address attacking the media, which has committed the evidently unpardonable sin of pointing out the problems his administration has had in its first seven months.“These are sick people.” “They’re dishonest people. They’re bad people.” “I’m really doing this to show how damn dishonest these people are.” “The very dishonest media … they make up stories.”There’s more. CNN “fired Jeffrey Lord.

Sen. Luther Strange into a runoff with conservative jurist Roy Moore for the right to fill Attorney General Jeff Sessions’s old seat.Strange was endorsed by President Trump, the National Rifle Association and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s super PAC, which spent $2.5 million on TV ads to boost him in Tuesday’s primary. Moore told his supporters: “This is a great victory. The attempt by the silk-stocking Washington elitists to control the vote of the people of Alabama has failed.”
WINNERS Roy Moore: Strange got the support of the president and the Senate majority leader. Brooks got the support of big-name conservatives including Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter.
Moore got the most votes in Alabama. WP
An endorsement from President DJ Donald Trump and his position as the incumbent, Sen. Luther Strange has been unable to hold off surging challenger Roy Moore heading into Tuesday’s Alabama Republican Senate primary election. A poll recently released by the Trafalgar Group shows Moore leading Strange 37.72 percent to 24.42 percent. However, an Emerson College Polling poll shows the two candidates in a virtual dead heat, with Strange leading 32 percent to 29 percent, meaning this race is too close to call. In the latest JMC Analytics and Polling survey, Moore is well ahead of the pack among self-described evangelical Christians, with 38 percent. RRH Elections poll shows the race for first place in the primary tight between former State Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore (R) and appointed Sen. Luther Strange (R). Moore leads Strange 31% to 29%, with both candidates likely to appear in a runoff. Rep. Mo Brooks (R) trails in third with 18%.

But history is also being made now. As is always true with Trump, self-interest is the most efficient explanation for his actions: Under pressure from the Russia investigation, he is reluctant to alienate backlash voters, who are among his most loyal supporters.The rest of us, however, have a larger obligation to our country and to racial justice. As the late civil rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer might suggest, it is time to ask about Trump: When will we become sick and tired of being sick and tired? E.J. Dionne WP

We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides. On many sides.
Here is what a presidential president would have said:“The violence Friday and Saturday in Charlottesville, Va., is a tragedy and an unacceptable, impermissible assault on American values. It is an assault, specifically, on the ideals we cherish most in a pluralistic democracy — tolerance, peaceable coexistence and diversity.“The events were triggered by individuals who embrace and extol hatred. Racists, neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klan members and their sympathizers — these are the extremists who fomented the violence in Charlottesville, and whose views all Americans must condemn and reject.

The Fancy Farm picnic is a fundraiser for the St. Jerome Catholic Church in Fancy Farm, a small farming community in western Kentucky. The event is known for putting politicians from both parties on the stage before a crowd of rowdy hecklers.
Kentucky's Democratic attorney general publicly released his 2016 tax returns on statewide television Saturday during the 137th annual Fancy Farm picnic. And while he challenged the state's other lawmakers to do the same, most saw it as a challenge to Republican Gov. Matt Bevin, who has steadfastly refused to release his income tax returns despite years of precedent.And it was the latest evidence that Beshear, son of former Gov. Steve Beshear, is preparing to challenge Bevin in 2019 AP

Forecast Model Suggests Democratic Gains Likely in 2018 Gubernatorial Contests http://www.centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/articles/forecast-model-suggests-democratic-gains-likely-in-2018-gubernatorial-contests/
Seattle will elect a woman as mayor in 2017 for the first time in 91 years, with voters putting four women ahead in a crowded primary election in Tuesday night’s returns.Seattle last elected a woman as chief executive in 1926. Bertha Knight Landes was the first woman to lead a major U.S. city, occupying the mayor’s office for two years after having served as president of the City Council. She also was the last woman to reach a general election for Seattle mayor.SeattleTimes Jenny Durkan a Hillary Clinton supporter held a commanding lead over the 21-candidate field with 31.6 percent, while urban planner Cary Moon and educator and attorney Nikkita Oliver were neck and neck with 15.6 percent and 13.9 percent, respectively, in the nonpartisan race to succeed outgoing Mayor Ed Murray.
Urban planner Cary Moon has maintained and slightly expanded her lead over lawyer/educator Nikkita Oliver on Wednesday in the contest to see who takes on the frontrunner, ex-U.S. Attorney General Jenny Durkan, in the race to become Seattle's next mayor.Moon is ahead with 15.73 percent of the vote (16,168 votes) to 13.81 percent (14,190 votes) for Oliver. Durkan has a two-to-one lead over Moon with 31.52 percent, or 32,376 votes. Only the top two contenders advance to November's general election.PI
Trump reminded the crowd of his victory against Hillary Clinton in the November presidential election and thanked Americans for supporting him after he lost the popular vote to her. "Do you remember that famous night on television, November 8?" Trump asked. He said his ascendance to the White House was "an unbelievable tribute to you and all of the other millions and millions of people that came out and voted for Make America Great Again."
"As the scout law says, a scout is trustworthy, loyal," Trump said, before adding, "We could use some more loyalty, I will tell you that." As he spoke, the crowd chanted "U.S.A" and applauded, prompting some critics of the president, who has the lowest approval ratings in modern history, to compare his rhetoric to the Hitler Youth
The Boy Scouts of America said in a statement after the speech that the organization did not endorse Trump or any "position, product, service, political candidate or philosophy." The group has a tradition of inviting sitting presidents to address its annual gathering.

Judge Kollar-Kotelly on Monday allowed President Trump’s voting commission to go forward with seeking voter data from 50 states and the District, ruling that the White House advisory panel is exempt from federal privacy review requirements, whatever additional risk it might pose to Americans’ information.To the extent the factual circumstances change, however — for example, if the . . . powers of the Commission expand beyond those of a purely advisory body — this determination may need to be revisited.”Kollar-Kotelly wrote that the only added risk to privacy was if the White House computer systems are more vulnerable to security threats than those of the states, or that its de-identification process would be inadequate.Marc Rotenberg, the president of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, said in a statement that the group “will push forward. The Commission cannot evade privacy obligations by playing a shell game with the nation’s voting records.”WP

In 2018, 17 million more people would be uninsured under the legislation than under current law. After the elimination in 2020 of the ACA’s expansion of eligibility for Medicaid and of the subsidies for insurance purchased through the marketplaces established by the ACA, the increase in the number of uninsured people would rise to 27 million in 2020 and then to 32 million in 2026.

But we awoke to the ugly truth, and it hurt even more.“We went down to Freshy beach this morning, and saw the darkness change to light.” he said.Ruszczyk paid tribute to his daughter, saying she touched many lives.“Justine our daughter was so special to us, and to so many others,” he said. “Justine was a beacon to all of us,” he added.

With Joe Maddon managing the National League All-Stars, he brought in Wade Davis -- the lone Cubs player on the team -- in the top of the 10th inning ... and Davis promptly gave up a home run to Robinson Cano, who lined a 1-1 curveball to right field for the winning run in the American League's 2-1 victory.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel sincerely wants to do something to improve Chicago schools. I have no doubt of that. Unfortunately, his proposal — called “Learn. Plan. Succeed.” — falls short of the mark.Sounds good, right? But the City Colleges of Chicago, a system of seven community colleges, already guarantees admittance to any high school graduate. So all the high schools will do is get every graduating senior to apply for admission, whether they intend to go or not. That will require a dramatic increase in school counselors, of course, and there’s no budget for that.Chicago has the worst black unemployment of any of the five biggest cities in the country. Across the U.S., a staggering 51.3 percent of young black high school graduates are unemployed or underemployed (that is, forced to work part time involuntarily or giving up on finding a job).

" What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are, to Him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy — a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages".

On Nov. 9, Americans awakened to a startling reality: In the absence of broad, enduring citizen engagement, the door is left open for darkness to creep in and gain a foothold in our democracy.Amid that awakening, I launched my improbable campaign for Georgia’s 6th Congressional District. It grew into something bigger than I could have imagined.Here in Georgia, in a district considered safe for Republicans for decades, we built a grass-roots organization powered by thousands of volunteers and hundreds of thousands of small-dollar donors.Jon Ossoff

The Democrats fared far better in this spring’s special congressional elections than even the most optimistic Democrat might have guessed a few months ago.Make no mistake: Despite the losses, these four special election results — in Kansas, Montana, Georgia and South Carolina — are very strong showings for the Democrats. Democrats did better in these special elections than would have been expected, based on previous election results and even supposing that the national political environment was as hostile for Republicans as it was in 2006. That’s even true in Georgia’s Sixth, where Mitt Romney and the outgoing representative (Tom Price) won by 23 points, even though President Trump won by just 1.5 points Nate Cohn the Upshot
Jon Ossoff, like so many losing Democratic candidates over the years, was brought down fundamentally by arguments grounded in identity politics.Instead, her campaign and its allies buried Ossoff under a pile of what basically amounts to nonsense lumped together under the broad heading that he’s an “outsider.” stuff about Kathy Griffin, stuff about Samuel L. Jackson, stuff about his home being just over the district line, stuff about him having raised money from out of state — lumped together under the broad heading that he’s an “outsider.” Vox

Overtly and arrogantly collaborating with the District Attorney. How do I describe the counsels for the accusers? Totally unethical. How do I describe many, but not all, general media? Blatantly vicious entities that continually disseminated intentional omissions of truths for the primary purpose of greedily selling sensationalism at the expense of a human life.”“Historically, people have challenged injustices. I am grateful to any of the jurors who tenaciously fought to review the evidence; which is the rightful way to make a sound decision,” Cosby continued, before quoting, “Truth can be subdued, but not destroyed.” Camille Cosby

“Fast-tracking a major legislative overhaul such as health care reform or a new national energy tax without the benefit of a full and transparent debate does a disservice to the American people,” McConnell said in 2009, referring to the two big issues of the moment. Democrats using such means, he added, “would make it absolutely clear they intend to carry out their plans on a purely partisan basis.”
President DJ Trump and his administration (including, most recently, Attorney General Jeff “I don’t recall” Sessions) keep providing McConnell excellent cover as their assorted outrages dominate the news and deflect attention from Capitol Hill. The wrecking squad works in the shadows knowing that if the public were given time to absorb the damage in store for millions of Americans, the pushback would be enormous. We know that the Trump/Russia story will still be there in a month. We cannot say the same about the health insurance millions of Americans count on. By then, it may be on the road to extinction.E.J.

This would be a humiliation for Prime Minister Theresa May, who chose to call the election to try to strengthen her hand in talks with the EU on Brexit.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn urged her to resign, but she said her party would "ensure" stability in the UK.
"At this time more than anything else, this country needs a period of stability," Mrs May said.
National issues dominated Tuesday evening in the between Democrat Jon Ossoff and Republican Karen Handel in the closely-watched contest for Georgia’s 6th District congressional seat.Former House Speaker Tip O’Neill coined the slogan “all politics is local.” But that once reliable catchphrase felt like a relic Tuesday during the first head-to-head debate in the nationally-watched contest for Georgia’s 6th District congressional seat.“We need an independent voice in Congress to hold both parties accountable, to stand up for the U.S. national interests no matter who’s in charge and to stand with our allies in defense of our security,” Ossoff said.
In total, outside groups, party committees and the two campaigns have spent more than $36 million on the contest so far, according to a recent Atlanta Journal-Constitution analysis, making the race by far the most expensive in the history of the House of Representatives. Atlanta Constitution

Hillary Clinton gave an unfiltered assessment of the 2016 campaign because of unfair media coverage, an "unprecedented" campaign waged against her by a foreign adversary, James Comey's decision to re-open her email probe, criticism of her candidacy that she claimed bordered on misogyny, and a prevailing sentiment that she would be victorious, which hampered voter turnout.The coverage surrounding the server and the investigation were relentless and damaging. "[The media] covered it like Pearl Harbor,"she said of her emails. She inherited a data machine from the Democratic National Committee that she described as "bankrupt" and "on the verge of insolvency.""I inherited nothing from the Democratic Party,". ReCode

The health-overhaul bill approved by House Republicans would leave 23 million more people uninsured while reducing the cumulative federal deficit by $119 billion in the next decade compared with current law, according to an estimate from the Congressional Budget Office.The CBO found the legislation would reduce the cumulative federal deficit by $119 billion over roughly the next decade. In early March, it reported an earlier version of the bill would cut the deficit by $337 billion over the next decadeThe House bill includes $662 billion in tax cuts, the Joint Committee on Taxation reported Wednesday. The largest tax cut, at $172 billion over a decade, would repeal a 3.8% tax on investment income of individuals with income over $200,000 and married couples with incomes over $250,000. The bill would make that tax cut retroactive to Jan. 1. WSJ

The Democratic defeat in a hard-fought special House election in Montana on Thursday highlighted the practical limitations on liberal opposition to President Trump and exposed a deepening rift between cautious party leaders, who want to pick their shots in battling for control of Congress in 2018, and more militant grass-roots activists who want to fight the Republicans everywhere.Rob Quist, the Democratic nominee in Montana, staked his campaign on the Republican health care bill, but he still lost by six percentage points.NYT
Quist restored Democratic order in these counties, winning both by 34 points. Granted, that’s a little weaker than Obama’s 32-point respective wins in each relative to the statewide vote in each election, given that Quist lost statewide by six and Obama lost statewide by 14, but it does provide a very limited example suggesting that Trump’s performance in some traditional white working-class bastions may not be transferable to other Republicans, at least in the short term.Sabato's Crystal Ball

The health-overhaul bill approved by House Republicans would leave 23 million more people uninsured while reducing the cumulative federal deficit by $119 billion in the next decade compared with current law, according to an estimate from the Congressional Budget Office.The CBO found the legislation would reduce the cumulative federal deficit by $119 billion over roughly the next decade. In early March, it reported an earlier version of the bill would cut the deficit by $337 billion over the next decadeThe House bill includes $662 billion in tax cuts, the Joint Committee on Taxation reported Wednesday. The largest tax cut, at $172 billion over a decade, would repeal a 3.8% tax on investment income of individuals with income over $200,000 and married couples with incomes over $250,000. The bill would make that tax cut retroactive to Jan. 1. WSJ

Blue-collar whites are a significant component of those benefiting from the income-support programs Trump is targeting.
The highest share of all households receiving SNAP benefits in Trump’s key states: 69 percent in Iowa, 57 percent in Ohio, 55 percent in Wisconsin, 52 percent in Michigan, and 50 percent in Pennsylvania. The numbers were comparable in heavily white and blue-collar states like West Virginia (85 percent), Maine (82 percent), Kentucky (74 percent), Montana (68 percent), Indiana (61 percent), Missouri (59 percent), Tennessee (56 percent), and Arkansas (55 percent).

Robert S. Mueller III, a former prosecutor who served as the FBI director from 2001 to 2013, has agreed to take over the investigation as a special counsel, Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein announced.
Rosenstein said in a statement that he concluded that “it is in the public interest for me to exercise my authorities and appoint a special counsel to assume responsibility for this matter.”“My decision is not a finding that crimes have been committed or that any prosecution is warranted,” Mr. Rosenstein added. “I have made no such determination.”
In a statement, President DJ Trump said, “As I have stated many times, a thorough investigation will confirm what we already know — there was no collusion between my campaign and any foreign entity. I look forward to this matter concluding quickly. In the meantime, I will never stop fighting for the people and the issues that matter most to the future of our country.” NYT
The president’s authority in foreign affairs, as in all areas, is rooted in Article II of the Constitution.Presidents also rely on other clauses to support their foreign policy actions, particularly those that bestow “executive power” and the role of “commander in chief of the army and navy” on the office. From this language springs a wide array of associated or “implied” powersFor instance, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (1977) authorizes the president to impose economic sanctions on foreign entities.Presidents also cite case law to support their claims of authority. In particular, two U.S. Supreme Court decisions—United States. v. Curtiss-Wright Export Corporation (1936) and Youngstown Sheet & Tube Company v. Sawyer (1952)—are touchstones.Council on Foreign Relations.

Wisconsin's comprehensive dental benefit is considered one of the best in the nation. According to the National Academy for State Health Policy, four states don't offer any dental insurance to Medicaid beneficiaries, and another 15 offer only emergency care.
Still, most dentists in Wisconsin, and across the country, don't accept patients on Medicaid because they say the reimbursement rates are too low. The Wisconsin Dental Association says Medicaid pays only about 35 percent of the dentists' costs.
A report released this month by the Goldwater Institute and the Texas Public Policy Foundation found that of Arizona’s 7 million residents, 2.4 million as of Jan. 1 lived in areas designated as dental-health-professional shortage areas, which means one or fewer dentists per 5,000 people.Dental therapists are “mid-level providers,” similar to the role that physician assistants and nurse practitioners play in the medical world. They are allowed in Minnesota, Maine and Vermont, on tribal land in Washington, Oregon and Alaska, and in some other countries including Australia and New Zealand.

U.S. Department of Energy issued an emergency alert Tuesday morning at the Hanfo rd Site north of Richland, Washington, after a tunnel containing rail cars full of radioactive material was breached.Hanford is the nation’s largest nuclear cleanup site, with 56 million gallons of radioactive waste sitting in old, leaky underground tanks just a few hours upriver from Portland. After more than 20 years and $19 billion dollars, not a drop of waste has been treated.
Construction on the treatment plant was supposed to be completed in 2007. That slipped to 2011, then 2019. And now the deadline has been extended to 2036 for the most dangerous waste.OPB.

The worlds of investing and business have changed, making it tougher to buy good companies and giving rise to huge businesses that are based on ideas, not manufacturing plants, Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger said Saturday.Munger, who is vice chairman of Berkshire, said, “The general field of buying whole companies has gotten more competitive,” making it difficult for Berkshire to find affordable businesses to add to its dozens of operating companies. Berkshire’s future growth will be “less glorious than in the past. We keep saying that, and now we’re proving it,” he said. Berkshire’s growth averaged 21 percent a year for its first 42 years under Buffett but 8.7 percent in the decade since.Omaha World-Herald is owned by Berkshire Hathaway Inc.

Speaking after their first face-to-face meeting at the White House on Wednesday, Trump pledged to support Abbas "in being the Palestinian leader who signs his name to the final and the most important peace agreement that brings safety, stability, prosperity to both peoples and to the region"."I've always heard that perhaps the toughest deal to make is the deal between the Israelis and the Palestinians," Trump said.
Abbas reiterated the Palestinian demand for an independent Palestinian state along pre-1967 lines, with East Jerusalem as its capital. "Our strategic and sole option is to achieve the two-state solution, the state of Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital to live side by side in peace, safety and stability together with the state of Israel along 1967 borders,"We are the only people in the world who remain occupied that is why we are seeking our freedom, our dignity and the right of self-determination."

Franklin D. Roosevelt invented the idea of a president’s first 100 days. Roosevelt was actually referring to the first 100 days of a special Congressional session to fight the Great Depression.Presidents are at their most influential in their early months, which makes that period a particularly important one for a presidency.Here’s my reading of Trump’s start: It’s the least successful first 100 days since the concept existed.Trump has made no significant progress on any major legislation. His health care bill is a zombie. His border wall is stalled. He’s only now releasing basic principles of a tax plan. Even his executive order on immigration is tied up in the courts.

They marched for science, and at first, they did so quietly. On Saturday, as thousands of people started streaming eastward from the Washington Monument, in a river of ponchos and umbrellas, the usual raucous chats that accompany such protests were rarely heard and even more rarely continued. “Knowledge is power; it’s our final hour,” said six enthusiastic people—to little response. “What do we want? Science! When do we want it? After peer review!” shouted another pocket of marchers—for about five rounds.Scientists are not a group to whom activism comes easily or familiarly.

Republicans have held off a surprisingly strong Democratic challenge for a Kansas House seat in the first congressional election since President Donald Trump's November victory.
Voters on Tuesday picked state Treasurer Ron Estes to fill the vacancy created when Trump chose former U.S. Rep. Mike Pompeo as CIA director.
Estes held off Democrat James Thompson, a civil rights attorney, to claim the 4th congressional district seat occupied by Republicans for more than two decades.
Trump won 60 percent of votes in November's election in the 17-county district in south-central Kansas that includes the state's largest city of Wichita. KAKE TV
Candidates in Tuesday’s congressional election made their final arguments on Monday, with Republican Ron Estes rallying with a popular GOP senator and Democrat James Thompson greeting voters in downtown Wichita.
“I’ve heard people whose opinions I respect tell me they think it would be single digits,” said Clay Barker, the executive director of the Kansas Republican Party.Barker said that the party has focused on turning out diehard Republican voters.“We always thought turnout would be 20 percent, maybe a little lower, so we focused on the voters that we had to get,” he said.Nearly 13,000 GOP voters had cast ballots in advance by mail or in person compared to about 10,900 Democrats as of Monday morning, according to data provided by the Republican Party. Another 3,400 unaffiliated voters, who could tip the balance, had also cast ballots.
“This is already a victory,” Thompson continued, because it proves that by taking the fight to working-class voters, Democrats can make even the deepest red districts competitive.“I grew up in poverty,” Thompson said. “I want to give people the same chance I had.”

The West Coast has lined up against President Donald Trump's rollback of the Clean Power Plan and will go its own way on energy, with the region's governors saying they will "assert our own 21st Century leadership and chart a different course." The divisions of America, not on culture but on climate and energy, were on display Tuesday, as well as the values of the actors.The governors of Washington, Oregon and California -- plus mayors of the Coast's major cities -- said in a letter that action on climate is urgent, and healthy for the economy as well as people that live on the "Left Coast.""We speak as a region of over 50 million people with a combined (gross domestic product) of $2.8 trillion," they said.

NBC News reported on Tuesday that 26 House Republicans oppose the bill, which would leave House Speaker Paul Ryan short of the 216 votes he needs. No Democrat is expected to support the bill. Reuters

Enda Kenny has repeatedly said he’s going to the White House on St Patrick’s Day to “stand up for the undocumented Irish” and insist they be given the right to full US citizenship.This is a moment of truth about what it means to be Irish in the world. We either wink at a racism that affords most of us the privilege of a white skin. Or we honour the struggles of so many millions of Irish immigrants to be accepted as equal human beings.
Mr. O’Riordain is less optimistic. He said Mr. Trump’s Irish-American supporters had betrayed their roots and has compared them to Irish-American slaveholders in the South who were admonished by the 19th-century Irish leader Daniel O’Connell.

U.S. District Court Judge Derrick Watson found that Trump’s order violates the religious establishment clause of the U.S. Constitution.Judge Watson said that while the new order is more narrowly focused, he can’t ignore what Trump said on the campaign trail, including in a March 2016 interview in which he said, “I think Islam hates us,” and an October interview in which he said the Muslim ban has morphed into extreme vetting.Honolulu Star-Advertiser

Fox News Chief White House correspondent John Roberts today appeared at a journalism symposium at the National Press Club with a stern message: “We’ve got to stop whining,” said Roberts in a multi-person panel of journalists discussing coverage of the Trump White House. “We’ve got to just do our jobs and it’s … almost like working in a war zone.April D. Ryan, White House correspondent and Washington bureau chief for American Urban Radio Networks, felt compelled to take issue with Roberts’s formulation. “I’m not going to look at this as whining … and I do not consider it war, even though we are considered the ‘opposition party’ by some in the administration, the president has called us the ‘enemy’ of the American people.”

The nonpartisan Tax Policy Center projects:."The effects are really very dramatic. We found that a typical middle-income family would get a tax cut averaging about $300, while people in the top 0.1 percent would get a tax cut of about $207,000," Howard Gleckman, a senior fellow at the nonprofit research group, said on Monday. (tpc.io/2n1Mdwi)
The expected benefits equal 2.6 percent of a wealthy family's after-tax income, but only 0.5 percent of the income of a middle-class household making $51,600 to $89,400 a year, including fringe benefits like employer-provided health insurance, the center estimated. The top 0.1 percent of U.S. families have income of at least $3.9 million.

Nearly 1,000 demonstrators rallied in Lake Oswego Saturday afternoon as several March 4 Trump events broke out across the country.
Approximately 200 demonstrators gathered in George Rogers Park in a show of support for President Donald Trump and against what they said was a biased media and obstruction by Democrats on Capitol Hill.
They were met by a crowd of anti-Trump protesters who had lined the march route on State Street and parked themselves at the intersection where the March 4 Trump would turn and walk back to the park. Anti-Trump organizers say as many as 700 showed up to voice opposition to the president's policies. Eder Campuzano of The Oregonian

Jerry wanted to be in broadcasting. He started hanging out at KBIX and KMUS, the two local radio stations in his home town of Muskogee, Oklahoma when he was in Junior High School. Finally after a couple of years, they got tired of him being a groupie, and gave him a job as one of the youngest announcers in the history of radio station KBIX. Radio was good to him, and he continued working full time and attended Northeastern State University in nearby Tahlequah, Oklahoma. In 1961, he joined the US Army where he was stationed in the San Francisco Bay area.
He was one of the visionaries that found "Internet Radio"in 1999 known today as Podcasting

"There are a lot of people who have a lot of reason to be frustrated with him, to be fearful of him. But that was one of the most extraordinary moments you have ever seen in American politics, period. And he did something extraordinary. And for people who have been hoping that he would become unifying, hoping that he might find some way to become presidential, they should be happy with that moment. if he finds a way to do that over and over again, he's going to be there for eight years" Van Jones
Trump has been president for about 40 days, but he sounds like he is still giving stump speechesHappy talk and mindless phrases, of course, leave Trump with wiggle room to blame Democrats or Republicans, or both, when things don’t work out, but it makes success on complex and controversial issues much more difficult..

'A free press was 'indispensable to democracy' during his two White House terms – hinting that he disagrees with President Donald Trump's assessment of some reporters as 'the enemy of the people.We need an independent media to hold people like me to account,' Bush said on the 'Today' show. I think power can be very addictive, and it can be corrosive, and it's important for the media to call to account people who abuse their power, whether it be here or elsewhere." former President GW Bush
As depressing as DJ Trump’s war on the media is, it’s not all bad news. His administration has actually sparked some of the best investigative reporting we’ve seen since Watergate on the Russian connection and Trump’s financial conflicts – especially from The Washington Post, CNN, and The New York Times.It’s also clear that the majority of the American people aren’t buying Trump’s assault on the press.
The majority of Americans realize that the enemy is not those telling the truth. The real enemy of the American people is a president who tries to suppress the truth. Bill press

The novelist, playwright and essayist James Baldwin, is a man who has been dead for nearly 30 years, you would be hard-pressed to find a movie that speaks to the present moment with greater clarity and force, insisting on uncomfortable truths and drawing stark lessons from the shadows of historyBaldwin could not have known about Ferguson and Black Lives Matter, about the presidency of Barack Obama and the recrudescence of white nationalism in its wake, but in a sense he explained it all in advance. He understood the deep, contradictory patterns of our history, and articulated, with a passion and clarity that few others have matched, the psychological dimensions of racial conflict: the suppression of black humanity under slavery and Jim Crow and the insistence on it in African-American politics .

Justice Department lawyer August E. Flentje on Tuesday said courts should not second-guess President Trump’s targeted travel ban, drawing skepticism from a three-judge federal appeals panel weighing the limits of executive authority in cases of national security. August E. Flentje, the Justice Department’s lawyer, sensed he was not gaining ground with that line of argument. “I’m not sure I’m convincing the court,”
Judge Friedland said that if the executive order violated the Constitution’s ban on government establish of religion , the court could block it completely.“Has the government pointed to any evidence connecting these countries with terrorism?” she asked Mr. Flentje.He responded that the government had not had an opportunity to present evidence in court given the pace of the litigation. “These proceedings have been moving quite fast, and we’re doing the best we can,” Mr. Flentje said.With that, Judge Friedland said, the government’s appeal may be premature.

Characters Mary Richards and her sidekick, Rhoda Morgenstern, represented independent and empowered women. But it was the women behind the scenes, Armstrong argues, who were role models for women who wanted to start a career.The Mary Tyler Moore Show, which Armstrong calls "TV's first truly female-dominated sitcom," first aired in 1970. America was in the middle of the women's rights movement; The Feminine Mystique, released in 1963, urged women to envision work outside the home, touching a nerve for housewives. But for the first time ever, these women were real. They had hopes, dreams, and ambitions—just like the women who created them. The Atlantic by Hope Reese

According to three senior officials on the transition team, a plan to evict the press corps from the White House is under serious consideration by the incoming Trump Administration. If the plan goes through, one of the officials said, the media will be removed from the cozy confines of the White House press room, where it has worked for several decades. Members of the press will be relocated to the White House Conference Center—near Lafayette Square—or to a space in the Old Executive Office Building, next door to the White House.Reporters have had some sort of workspace at the White House since Teddy Roosevelt's time, but the current press room is an artifact of the Richard Nixon era, the dawn of the symbiosis of the press and the modern presidency. The "room" is actually a space containing work stations and broadcast booths, as well as the briefing area that is so familiar to viewers of presidential news conferences.Esquire

Trump has promoted and patronized his own properties, from riding down the gilded escalators in Trump Tower as he announced his campaign in June 2015 to hosting primary-night news conferences at lavish Mar-a-Lago and reimbursing himself with campaign cash spent to fly on his own 757 jet and rent premium campaign office space inside his flagship building.

House Bill 3 will repeal the prevailing wage, a minimum salary paid to construction workers on local government projects. And Senate Bill 6 will require workers to “opt in” to having union dues withheld from their paychecks.Taken together, these bills will make life tougher for blue-collar workers in Kentucky, protesters said Saturday.

This policy “deeply disturbing,” and said that it is incumbent upon Baker to use the word.A lie, is a lie, is a lie, Journalism, as I was taught it, is a process of getting as close to some valid version of the truth as is humanly possible. And one of my definitions of news is information that the powerful don’t want you to know. Dan Rather

Les Paul and Mary Ford had many, many hits in the 50s, but here is my personal favorite, it was not their biggest hit, but for me even though I never smoked, it captures the essence of the downside of romantic love when one of the two lovers is no longer part of the other's life. Listen and enjoy their version of Smoke Rings- CLICK HERE to listen (mp3 version-podcast friendly)The news about Les Paul was not that he solely became the number one asset of the Gibson Guitar company, nor that he made recording history with Mary Ford crossing over all genres of pop music with million sellers around the word or even that he won several Grammy awards. For the generation of seniors he was a role model still working well past his 90th birthday. The world will miss the sensational guitar licks and the sweet caress of his mastery indeed. Jerry Pippin

Happy Kwanzaa !
As I trundled around New York City in the final days before Christmas, there was a chill in the air that was not represented in the weather reports. The Christmas cheer and material excesses that usually abound in the Big Apple had a tinge of an unfamiliar anxiety - especially as one headed towards the normally effervescent Fifth Avenue.But it is also home to Trump Tower, and, as crowds mingled with a mighty security presence, there was talk of the President-elect in his lofty aerie atop of a city that in large part is none too fond of him.These are the times that try men's souls. Thomas Paine wrote that, and it's a reminder that our history has seen other moments of crisis and uncertainty. I am optimistic that we will prevail as a nation, hopefully a much more unified and fairer one. With that thought in mind, and in that spirit: Merry Christmas to all.Dan Rather

“Lügenpresse” is German for “lying press,” and it’s no mystery why some corners of Trump supporters prefer to use the original German term instead of translating it into English, even if that umlaut is giving them fits.

A candidate needs a majority of electoral votes — 270 — to become president. Trump has 306 electors pledged to him. So 37 would need to defect from him to put him below that majority threshold.VOX
Nothing was more to be desired than that every practicable obstacle should be opposed to cabal, intrigue, and corruption. These most deadly adversaries of republican government might naturally have been expected to make their approaches from more than one querter, but chiefly from the desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils. How could they better gratify this, than by raising a creature of their own to the chief magistracy of the Union?

You cannot be a party which on one hand says we're in favor of working people, we're in favor of the needs of young people but we don't quite have the courage to take on Wall Street and the billionaire class. People do not believe that. You've got to decide which side you're on.
"We must also do everything we can to elect Democrats in Congress in 2018, and to take back the White House in 2020. We need a Democratic National Committee led by a progressive who understands the dire need to listen to working families, not the political establishment or the billionaire class. That is why I support Keith Ellison to be the next Chair of the Democratic National Committee, and why I hope you'll join me in advocating for him to lead the DNC." - Bernie Sanders

After Donald Trump’s election, some universities echoed with primal howls. Faculty members canceled classes for weeping, terrified students who asked: How could this possibly be happening?I share apprehensions about President-elect Trump, but I also fear the reaction was evidence of how insular universities have become.

Show Notes: Low Approval of Trump’s Transition but Outlook for His Presidency Improves http://www.people-press.org/2016/12/08/low-approval-of-trumps-transition-but-outlook-for-his-presidency-improves/
This is the 90th time we have named the person who had the greatest influence, for better or worse, on the events of the year. So which is it this year: Better or worse? The challenge for Donald Trump is how profoundly the country disagrees about the answer.It’s hard to measure the scale of his disruption. This real estate baron and casino owner turned reality-TV star and provocateur—never a day spent in public office, never a debt owed to any interest besides his own—now surveys the smoking ruin of a vast political edifice that once housed parties, pundits, donors, pollsters, all those who did not see him coming or take him seriously. Out of this reckoning, Trump is poised to preside, for better or worse.Time
Donald Trump is TIME’s 2016 Person of the Year.
Reagan did that very skillfully, whatever one may think of his vision. So did Bill Clinton, who took a page from Reagan’s playbook. He seized the Democratic Party away from its identity-conscious wing, concentrated his energies on domestic programs that would benefit everyone (like national health insurance) and defined America’s role in the post-1989 world. Mark Lilla
"It is not good enough for somebody to say, “Hey, I’m a Latina, vote for me,” That is not good enough. I have to know whether that Latina is going to stand up with the working class of this country, and is going to take on big money interests" Bernie Sanders
I’ll also thank Clinton herself, now an old woman, who worked her ass off for decades to do something no woman has ever done before; and President Barack Obama, who for eight years showed us a different picture of what leadership could look like in America. Neither of their careers would have been possible without the struggles of generations of “identity politics” activists that came before them. Rebecca Traister

"Could anyone be brazen enough to try such an attack? A few years ago, I might have said that sounds like science fiction, but 2016 has seen unprecedented cyberattacks aimed at interfering with the electionThis summer, attackers broke into the email system of the Democratic National Committee and, separately, into the email account of John Podesta, Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, and leaked private messages. Attackers infiltrated the voter registration systems of two states, Illinois and Arizona, and stole voter data.

"Now is a time when none of us can afford to remain seated or silent. We must all stand up to be counted.History will demand to know which side were you on. This is not a question of politics or party or even policy. This is a question about the very fundamentals of our beautiful experiment in a pluralistic democracy ruled by law.When I see neo-Nazis raise their hands in terrifying solute, in public, in our nation's capital, I shudder in horror. When I see that action mildly rebuked by a boilerplate statement from the President-elect whom these bigots have praised, the anger in me grows. And when I see some in a pliant press turn that mild statement into what they call a denunciation I cannot hold back any longer." Dan Rather
"The Democratic Party should not exist for Democrats. It exists for Americans. It exists for all of us, and we’ve got to be an agent of change. We’ve got to be on that person’s side, because the rich folks got a party that stands for them not having to pay taxes, not having to obey by government regulations, not having to worry about the common welfare. The American people need a party to say, “We’re on your side and willing to kick down doors for you.” That’s what needed in this moment, and I think that even though I’m black and I’m Muslim, people in my district vote for me because that is nowhere near as important as the fact that I actually care about them."

Mark Zuckerberg says the notion that fake news influenced the U.S. presidential election is "a pretty crazy idea."Facebook is not a free speech platform. It has a long list of rules, called Community Standards, of things you're not allowed to say or share. Naked pictures of children are a well-known example.During this election cycle, Zuckerberg personally intervened to change the rules. When Trump called for a ban on all Muslims, it was clearly hate speech, as defined by Facebook guidelines. But the CEO ordered his staff to not take it down because it was newsworthy.Facebook algorithms accidentally promoted to "trending news" a fake story about Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly pledging her support for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.One of the things that has shifted, he says, is that now news is a more important part of Facebook content. "We're still working through what that means." MPRNews

One little-known element of that gap is that the white working class (WWC) resents professionals but admires the rich. Class migrants (white-collar professionals born to blue-collar families) report that “professional people were generally suspect” and that managers are college kids “who don’t know how to do anything but are full of ideas about how I have to do my job,” Alfred Lubrano
National debates about policing are fueling class tensions today in precisely the same way they did in the 1970s, when college kids derided policemen as “pigs.” This is a recipe for class conflict. Being in the police is one of the few good jobs open to Americans without a college education. Police get solid wages, great benefits, and a respected place in their communities.Joan c Williams
We – as in left, progressive, labor and social justice activists – are going to have to get better at integrating class, race, gender and democratic issues. When you say, “It’s the economy, stupid,” it seems to disregard that democratic issues like pay equity, education, gun violence and police crimes, and reproductive rights are part of the economy. Teresa Albano
Trump was able to win, in large part, because he won over a lot of northern white voters without a college degree — in states like Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, for example. Many of thesevotershad cast ballots for Obama twice. Trump’s more populist message likely helped him outperform recent GOP nominees with these voters.538 Harry Enten
Globalization, combined with technology, combined with social media and constant information, have disrupted people’s lives, sometimes in very concrete ways a manufacturing plant closes and suddenly an entire town no longer has what was the primary source of employment -- but also psychologically. People are less certain of their national identities or their place in the world. And there is no doubt that that has produced populist movements, both from the left and the right, in many countries in Europe. When you see a Donald Trump and a Bernie Sanders -- very unconventional candidates -- have considerable success, then obviously there's something there that's being tapped into.President Obama
"This office is bigger than any one person. And that’s why ensuring a smooth transition is so important. It’s not something that the Constitution explicitly requires, but it is one of those norms that are vital to a functioning democracy -- similar to norms of civility and tolerance, and a commitment to reason and to facts and analysis. It's part of what makes this country work. And as long as I’m President, we are going to uphold those norms and cherish and uphold those ideals" President Obama.

The contest was the most expensive House race in the country. Outside groups spent big in the district, which represented one of just three chances Republicans had to knock off a Democratic incumbent this year. Looking to narrow their deficit in the House, this was a must-hold seat for Democrats.
Minnesota’s 8th District covers the northeastern corner of the state, stretching from the Canada border to outer-ring Twin Cities suburbs in the south. It is home to the Iron Range — the once-prosperous iron ore and taconite mining region just northwest of Duluth.Rolcall

FBI Director James Comey argued privately that it was too close to Election Day for the United States government to name Russia as meddling in the U.S. election and ultimately ensured that the FBI's name was not on the document that the U.S. government put out, a former bureau official tells CNBC.Department of Homeland Security and The Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued the statement on Oct. 7, saying: "The U.S. intelligence community is confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of emails from U.S. persons and institutions, including from U.S. political organizations.

They're not just winning the World Series. They're not just puncturing dreams all over Chicago. The Cleveland Indians are winning this World Series behind an ace who feels like he just dropped into this postseason out of a time machine.ESPN
The pennant from the last time the Cleveland Indians won the World Series in 1948 has been missing for more than 67 years, prompting some fans to blame the missing memorabilia for The Tribe's lack of championship wins since it was last seen. AP

In 1962, Hayden joined dozens of other students at a Students for a Democratic Society convention in Port Huron, Mich. As primary author of the group’s Port Huron Statement, he gave voice to a youth disaffection that foreshadowed the explosive power of the antiwar and civil rights protests of the years ahead.“We are people of this generation, bred in at least modest comfort, housed now in universities, looking uncomfortably to the world we inherit,” the manifesto began.In 1960, he hitchhiked to California to cover the Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles, where John F. Kennedy was nominated for president.LA Times
The Cubs won their first pennant since 1945, setting off a massive party that is somewhere between still going on and still being recovered from. But the city moves forward, staggering maybe, haggard definitely, ready for the World Series. The last time the Cubs won one of those was 1908. By now, you’re aware of that like you’re aware of your first and last name.

Donald Trump on Wednesday would not commit to accepting the outcome of the Nov. 8 U.S. presidential election if he loses, challenging a cornerstone of American democracy and sending shockwaves across the political spectrum.Trump's refusal, which his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton called "horrifying," was the standout remark of the their third and final debate and ratcheted up claims he has made for weeks that the election was rigged against him.
If the nation is in such horrible shape — if “our jobs are being sucked away” and “our country is dying,” as Trump says — why has Nevada’s unemployment rate dropped from more than 14 percent in 2010 to 6.3 percent today? Why has visitorship climbed from 36.3 million annually in 2009 to 42.3 million last year? Las Vegas Sun

S president Barack Obama said bin Laden, the most-wanted fugitive on the US list, has been killed in a US operation in Pakistan.
"Tonight, I can report to the people of the United States and the world, the United States had carried an operation that has killed Osama Bin Laden, a terrorist responsible for killing thousands of innocent people," Obama said in a statement.
bin Laden had been killed in a house outside Islamabad in a US operation. His body is in the possession of the US.
It is a major accomplishment for Obama and his national security team. Obama's predecessor, George Bush, had repeatedly vowed to bring to justice the mastermind of the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, but never did before leaving office in early 2009.

Historians will no doubt analyze the Trump phenomenon and point to white grievances at the ascendance of minorities, to globalization, to wage stagnation and economic inequality, to political dysfunction, to anger at elites, and a host of other forces as sources. But they might also want to look at an America that can’t spend a second away from its cellphones, that needs constant stimulation, that has to tweet and text lest it lose contact, and that must check Facebook 100 times a day to keep in the loop. Trump became the political loop. Neal Gabler Moyers and company

“There’s so many things I admire about Mr. Trump, but one thing I really admire about him is—you know what—he’ll say what’s on his mind,” Rex Ryan said. “And so many times, you’ll see people—a lot of people—want to say the same thing. But there’s a big difference: They don’t have the courage to say it. They all think it, but they don’t have the courage to say it. And Donald Trump certainly has the courage to say it.”

A final viewership estimate from the Nielsen company was not immediately available on Tuesday. But preliminary estimates from 11 of the networks that carried the debate totaled 81.4 million viewers, which would topple a record that had stood for 36 years.The previous record for presidential debate viewership was the 80.6 million people who saw the only debate in 1980 between incumbent Democrat Jimmy Carter and his Republican challenger Ronald Reagan.AP
Indeed, while polls found that Clinton had won the first general-election debate with Donald Trump on Monday, she may not have won actual votes. And she may even have lost some, at least in the battleground state of North Carolina.In a focus group of 21 voters from around Charlotte conducted by McClatchy and The Charlotte Observer, four who had been up for grabs before the debate had moved away from her by the end.
Republican Donald Trump’s performance in the first presidential debate on Monday night was likely to bolster his supporters, but risked turning others off, interviews with undecided voters and experts in both parties said.WSJ

In the 1930s, when teens Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were coming of age, jobs were scarce, Nazis were on the rise in Europe, and the KKK was terrorizing innocent American families. The world needed a hero, one who would fight for the rights of all people, stomp out oppression, and restore hope. Together they created the character Superman, who became an enduring figure in comic books, newspapers, radio, television, and movies, as well as a force for real, positive change.Superman's influence was never more groundbreaking than in the spring of 1946. Millions of children and adults tuned their radios to the Adventures of Superman radio show entitled "Clan of the Fiery Cross," crafted from secret information given to the show's producers by spies inside the Klan Scholastic
For nearly a decade during the 1940’s, Stetson Kennedy infiltrated and informed on the criminal activities of the Ku Klux Klan, taking their secrets to the airwaves through the Super Man Radio Show and testifying in court against the Klan. Kennedy reported those experiences in his book, The Klan Unmasked, published first in England and decades later by University Presses of Florida. He ran as a write-in candidate for the U.S. Senate in 1950 on a platform of “not white supremacy but right supremacy.”

Tulsa Police Chief Chuck Jordan said officers found no gun on Crutcher or in his SUV, which was stopped in the middle of 36th Street North just west of Lewis Avenue.Officer Betty Shelby fired a single shot at close range that video footage released Monday indicates hit Crutcher in the upper right chest. Another officer, Tyler Turnbough, deployed his Taser at almost the same time Shelby — who did not have a Taser — used her service weapon.“I want to assure our community, and I want to assure all of you and people across the nation who are going to be looking at this, we will achieve justice, period,” Jordan said.He called the videos "very disturbing" and "very difficult to watch." Tulsa World
Speaking to reporters outside the Tulsa County Courthouse on Tuesday afternoon, Benjamin Crump, who is representing the dead man’s family, said that a streak of Crutcher’s blood on the glass, visible in a still image taken from the helicopter video, proved that the car window was closed when he was shot.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) demanded that Stumpf explain why he had not offered to give up any of his compensation — he made $19 million last year — or resigned in the wake of the scandal. She noted that Stumpf repeatedly touted Well Fargo’s ability to sell more and more products to customers in quarterly calls with analysts, and then watched as investors pushed up the bank’s stock price, generating gains that increased his own holding by about $200 million over several years.How many people at Wells Fargo are going to jail? Zero. But if you smoke marijuana in this country, you get a criminal record.— Bernie Sanders (@SenSanders) September 20, 2016.@SenWarren is right: "The only way that Wall Street will change is if executives face jail time when they preside over massive frauds.”WP

In terms of geopolitics, we have moved from an age of order to an age of entropy. Foreign Affairs
In information theory, entropy is the measure of the amount of information that is missing before reception and is sometimes referred to as Shannon entropy.[56] Shannon entropy is a broad and general concept which finds applications in information theory as well as thermodynamics. It was originally devised by Claude Shannon in 1948 to study the amount of information in a transmitted message. The definition of the information entropy is, however, quite general, and is expressed in terms of a discrete set of probabilities pi so that
H ( X ) = − ∑ i = 1 n p ( x i ) log ? p ( x i )

"I keep on reading this analysis that Trump's got support from working folks. Really? This is the guy you want to be championing working people?" Obama said at a campaign rally in Philadelphia. "The guy who spent 70 years on this earth showing no concern for working people?
"He wasn't going to let you on his golf course, He wasn’t going to let you buy into his condo. And now he wants to be your champion?"
"What sets Hillary apart is that through it all she just keeps on going and she doesn't stop caring and she doesn't stop trying and she never stops fighting for us even if we haven't always appreciated it," Obama said. "I understand, we're a young country, we are a restless country. We always like the new shiny thing. I benefited from that when I was a candidate, and we take for granted sometimes what is steady and true. And Hillary Clinton is steady and she is true."ABC News

Beginning in the late 19th century, as the trade union and labor movements grew, trade unionists proposed that a day be set aside to celebrate labor. "Labor Day" was promoted by the Central Labor Union and the Knights of Labor, which organized the first parade in New York City. In 1887, Oregon was the first state of the United States to make it an official public holiday. By the time it became an official federal holiday in 1894, thirty U.S. states officially celebrated Labor Day.WP

The former president Vicente Fox, who has frequently criticised Trump for his conduct towards Mexicans, .There’s no turning back, Trump, your insults to Mexicans, Muslims and others have dropped you into the hole where you find yourself today. Goodbye, Trump!”Peña Nieto might achieve is still uncertain. Telling off Trump might score him some short-term political points, pundits say – though the president tends to talk in off-scripted statements and in a stiff prose, heavy on protocol, which doesn’t lend itself to strong comments or verbal jousting.“[He’s] become a propaganda tool for the country’s worst enemy,” wrote Jesús Silva Herzog, a political analyst, adding: “No. This isn’t a calculated risk. It’s monumental stupidity. There’s no way this will work out well.” Guardian
Donald Trump clarified his views on immigration in a speech Wednesday in Phoenix, saying the country needs a wall on the southern border, extra agents patrolling it and an aggressive system to urgently expel 2 million immigrants with criminal ties he envisions a revamped system that accepts only people likely to thrive and love their new country.The Republic
As I write this twenty years later, I cannot stand and sing the anthem. I cannot salute the flag; I know that I am a black man in a white world. In 1972, in 1947, at my birth in 1919, I know that I never had it made.Jackie Robinson
"I have great respect for men and women that have fought for this country," Kaepernick said. "I have family. I have friends that gone and fought for this country. They fight for freedom. They fight for the people. They fight for liberty and justice for everyone. And that's not happening. People are dying in vain because this country isn't holding their end of the bargain up as far as, you know, giving freedom and justice and liberty to everybody.NFL.com
What should horrify Americans is not Kaepernick’s choice to remain seated during the national anthem, but that nearly 50 years after Ali was banned from boxing for his stance and Tommie Smith and John Carlos’s raised fists caused public ostracization and numerous death threats, we still need to call attention to the same racial inequities. Failure to fix this problem is what’s really un-American here.Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

No line about class in the United States is more famous than the one written by the German sociologist Werner Sombart in 1906. Class consciousness in America, he contended, foundered “on the shoals of roast beef and apple pie.” In “White Trash,” Nancy Isenberg joins a long list of historians over the last century who have sent Sombart’s theory crashing on the shoals of history. The prolific Charles and Mary Beard, progressive historians in the first third of the 20th century, reinterpreted American history as a struggle for economic power between the haves and have-nots. W.E.B. Du Bois interpreted Reconstruction as a great class rebellion New York Times
Nancy Isenberg has produced, in White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America, a dreadfully stupid and lazy book. It is badly written, poorly conceived, and incompetently executed.

Forecasting the 2016 Presidential Election: Will Time for Change Mean Time for Trump? http://www.centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/articles/forecasting-the-2016-presidential-election-will-time-for-change-mean-time-for-trump/
It's certainly true that Trump appeals to outright racists and nativists. He is, first and foremost, the product of a Republican Party that has exploited extremism since President Obama took office. GOP leaders should be called to account whenever they try to prettify Trump by ignoring his assaults on Mexican-Americans and Muslims. Nonetheless, to ignore the real pain experienced by Trump voters is an even bigger mistake. E J Dionne

Michael Bloomberg hoisted it onto the stage of the Democratic National Convention.His plea for Hillary Clinton: “Let’s elect a sane, competent person.”“We can gloss over it, laugh about it, analyze it, but Donald Trump is not a well man,” Stuart Stevens, chief strategist to Mitt Romney’s 2012 campaign, wrote last week on Twitter.the Star
George Simon, a clinical psychologist who conducts seminars on manipulative behavior, says Trump is “so classic that I’m archiving video clips of him to use in workshops because there’s no better example” of narcissism. “Otherwise I would have had to hire actors and write vignettes. He’s like a dream come true.”Atlantic Dan P. McAdams

"We are not only deciding what kind of a world we will have in this election," Stein said in accepting the party's nomination at the University of Houston. "We are deciding whether we will have a world or not going into the future. The day of reckoning is coming closer...We cannot wait. We have to act now, if we want to stop that sea level rise from happening in 2050."
"The lesser evil is a losing strategy because people stop coming out to vote," she said. "Hillary Clinton is the problem. She is not the solution to Donald trump. We are the solution. We are the ones we've been waiting for."
She quoted Dr. Martin Luther King: "The arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice.""I know that arc is bending in us and through us right now. We are the actors in something that is much bigger than us, as we struggle for peace, community and healing together. Hunter Atkins Houston Chronicle

There's nothing new about the use of doomsday rhetoric in politics. Check out historian Richard Hofstadter's classic 1964 essay "The Paranoid Style in American Politics."Trump apparently follows the Machiavellian view that you can win more supporters with fear than with love. But in one authoritarian regime after another, we have seen how the politics of fear often leads to more problems that people should be fearful about.Clarence Page

Bernie Sanders democratic socialist who, before this presidential campaign, existed on the outskirts of American politics, received a hero's welcome when he emerged as the final speaker of Monday night. The applause lasted for three minutes. People in the crowd cried. And then Sanders delivered much of his now-familiar stump speech — revolutionary change, millionaires and billionaires, economic justice WTP

Like many popular leading men of Hollywood’s heyday, Garner boasted all-American good looks and a winning personality that carried him through comedy and drama alike. Garner won two Emmys and racked up a total of 15 nominations. He had his greatest impact in television, first on “Maverick” in the ’50s and then in the ’70s on “The Rockford Files,” for which he won an Emmy in 1977 Variety
“What you saw is what you got,” childhood friend, Roy Hamilton
Garner was born James Bumgarner but changed his name for Hollywood. His relatives say the name was the only thing that changed.
“As much as people liked what they saw of him on television and in the movies, I think they’d like him even better if they would’ve known him in person,” said nephew, Terry Bumgarner. Norman Transcript

In a section, Mrs Trump said: "My parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise; that you treat people with respect"And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you're going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don't know them, and even if you don't agree with them."
Mrs Trump's speech continued: "[My parents] taught me to show the values and morals in my daily life. That is the lesson that I continue to pass along to our son. And we need to pass those lessons on to the many generations to follow, because we want our children in this nation to know that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and your willingness to work for them."Mrs Obama said: "And Barack Obama and I set out to build lives guided by these values, and pass them on to the next generations. Because we want our children, and all children in this nation, to know that the only limit to the height of your achievement is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work for them."

Earlier today, President Obama made the following statement on the attack on law enforcement in Baton Rouge, LA:
"I condemn, in the strongest sense of the word, the attack on law enforcement in Baton Rouge. For the second time in two weeks, police officers who put their lives on the line for ours every day were doing their job when they were killed in a cowardly and reprehensible assault. These are attacks on public servants, on the rule of law, and on civilized society, and they have to stop.

Boss Ailes has unlawfully retaliated against Carlson and sabotaged her career because she refused his sexual advances and complained about severe and pervasive sexual harassment.Ailes retaliated against Carlson in various ways, as described below, including by
terminating her employment on June 23, 2016, and, prior thereto, by, among other things,ostracizing, marginalizing and shunning her after making clear to her that these problems?would not have existed, and could be solved, if she had a sexual relationship with him. When Carlson met with Ailes to discuss the discriminatory treatment to which shewas being subjected, Ailes stated: think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you?d be good and better and I?d be good and better, adding that sometimes problems are easier to solve? that way. Carlson rebuffed Ailes? sexual demands at that meeting, and nine months later, Ailes ended her career at Fox News.
Federal law makes it a crime for a trusted U.S. official to “knowingly and willfully” disclose or transmit secret information to an “unauthorized person.” A second law makes it a crime to “remove” secret documents kept by the government or to allow them to be stolen through “gross negligence.Neither law applies clearly or directly to Hillary Clinton’s “extremely careless” handling of classified emails that were sent through her private system when she was the secretary of State. “It’s just not a crime under current law to do nothing more than share sensitive information over unsecured networks,” said Stephen Vladeck, a law professor at the University of Texas. “Maybe it should be, but that's something for Congress to decide going forward.”Comey made clear, Vladeck said, that “however much we might want federal law to make her carelessness a crime, nothing she did falls within the letter of the relevant federal criminal statutes.” LATimes

"There is something of an age and generational component to the reaction. Many older, white voters wax nostalgically for the good old days and would prefer life as it was in the 1950’s, the days of Father Knows Best and Leave it to Beaver. But many minority voters have a different perception of those days, and many younger people in both countries have less pronounced nationalistic views. International boundaries mean less to them than to previous generations As respected pollster Peter Hart noted after a focus group last week in Pittsburgh, many Trump voters seem immune to any arguments against their candidate.".Charlie Cook

The economic security of women and families is directly tied to a woman’s access to reproductive health care. As the United States Supreme Court said, “The ability of women to participate equally in the economic and social life of the Nation has been facilitated by their ability to control their reproductive lives.” The decision whether or when to have a child is one of the most important economic decisions most American women will make. It has implications for a woman’s financial well-being, job security, workforce participation, and educational attainment.National Women's Law Centre
"This is a huge victory for the women of Texas and so many states that were really suffering under these trapped laws. But we have an ongoing fight in many states, especially around a affordability. This is about making the right to reproductive access a reality in practice, not just on paper. And if you can’t afford to exercise this right, it’s really not as meaningful to you".Sandra Fluke

Big Wall Street donors have a message for Hillary Clinton: Keep Elizabeth Warren off the ticket or risk losing millions of dollars in contributions.
“If Clinton picked Warren, her whole base on Wall Street would leave her,” said one top Democratic donor who has helped raise millions for Clinton. “They would literally just say, ‘We have no qualms with you moving left, we understand all the things you’ve had to do because of Bernie Sanders, but if you are going there with Warren, we just can’t trust you, you’ve killed it.’”Most big donors don’t want Warren on the ticket because she is the most accomplished anti-Wall Street populist in the Democratic Party Politico

In 1932, North Dakota law barred nonfamily corporations from owning farmland or operating farms. But that changed in March of last year when the state Legislature passed a bill that would relax the corporate farming ban and Gov. Jack Dalrymple signed it into law.The North Dakota Farmers Union, which opposed the bill, responded by gathering more than 20,000 signatures to force the measure onto the statewide ballot.The union has spent heavily on mailers and television ads in recent weeks and recruited more than 1,000 volunteers to make phone calls and knock on doors to drum up support.Measure One was defected by 75% of voters.
