More disturbing revelations about Justice Thomas, whose record is already brimming with charges of improper conduct, ethical lapses, undisclosed gifts and conflicts of interest.
New reporting from DeWayne Wickham reveals that after Clarence Thomas was nominated to the Court of Appeals and then to the Supreme Court, he twice misled the leadership of the NAACP on core issues of concern to the civil rights group. washingtonspectator.org/how-…
Since John Roberts became the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court, American women have been losing their liberty. The Roberts Court has made it increasingly difficult for American women to get the medical care they need, to follow their doctor’s advice to protect their health when they are pregnant and confronted with a heart-wrenching diagnosis like cancer that needs treatment, or when a severe fetal abnormality is detected. Women are dying because John Roberts agreed that states can restrict access to abortion well before a fetus is viable. The result of Roberts’s rule over our nation’s highest court is that American women are less safe and less free. - Lisa Graves

"President Trump has taken a metaphor—the war on drugs—and tried to convert it into an actual war. But it’s not a war, any more than a war on cancer would allow you to bomb a cigarette factory or a war on disinformation would allow Trump to bomb the BBC."

"Observing the Russian foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, meet the new US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, in Saudi Arabia was like watching a leopard encounter a mouse. I watched Lavrov eyeing him over the grandiose table in Riyadh as an easy snack." washingtonspectator.org/the-…
"Trump has shown how quickly perceptions can change thanks to social media, and this is a two-edged sword that can be effectively wielded by his critics and political opponents." #Trump

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.)
To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

Marco Rubio in 2016:
“I will make this promise to you today. I will do whatever it takes...Trump, a con artist, will never get control of this party...We cannot allow a con artist to get access to the nuclear codes of the United States of America.”

Everyone must watch all 8 minutes and 24 seconds of this speech by Michelle Obama.
It might be the finest I’ve ever heard on the topic of abortion rights, as well as the stakes in this election for American women…and the men who love them.
Share widely.
Egregious demagoguery and self-interested exploitation of the tragedy of this woman’s family. By itself this ad is disqualifying.

Thank you @hamfish and the Washington Spectator for excerpting this chapter of my book which is a reminder of Shirley Chisholm's bravery.
