SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

It is late and I have a lot of work to do. But the excitement of today's big victory in Texas has me writing instead about how we got here and what is next. Become a Democracy Docket member to receive all my writings and to support the 21 person team. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not just the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

Capitalism is out of control. CEOs make on average 285x more than employees and complain they have to let people go. Decent wages and benefits. Medicare for all. Insurance companies drive up costs. Free community college and low college tuition. Free childcare. Other countries do it. Why can't we?

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.
Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

My father was raised Jewish, and my mother was raised Catholic. Neither were religious, and we celebrated Christmas. My mother asked me to write a book based on her idea about Santa's daughter. My mother is gone now but 4 books and a free prequel live on. Please share!
