I joined the Marines in 1984, took an oath that, tho it's been 40 years, I hold dear & still believe in: to defend this country against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Today the Marine Corps turned 250 - older than the country I took that oath to defend.
We cannot give up now.

Just now: The plaintiffs who were arguing that Utah GOP's congressional map is illegal won in court.
The judge orders one of the two maps submitted by the plaintiffs ('map 1') be used.
The ruling, if it stands, guarantees that Democrats will pick up a congressional seat in Utah next year.
