The legal community lost a rising star last night in the DCA crash. Kiah Duggins, a brilliant legal scholar, was set to begin her career as a law professor at Howard University this fall.
This is truly heartbreaking.
May God’s infinite compassion bring comfort to all who mourn.

The government may be turning its back on global health; we the American people don't have to do the same.

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010.
It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.
