Thurgood Marshall was sworn in to the Supreme Court on this day in 1967, becoming the first Black American to sit on the Court. He would go on to serve for 24 years, becoming a powerful voice for civil rights and social justice.
The letter from Dennis Ketterer is garbage - the GOP is desperate. The allegations he makes are false and without any basis. We demand that the FBI interview my client & him, and that anyone found to have submitted false info be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Dr. Ford has passed a polygraph test and given the Committee the results. Judge Kavanaugh has not. She has called for outside witnesses to testify. Judge Kavanaugh has not. She called for an FBI investigation. Judge Kavanaugh has not.

My heart is broken. I am so lucky to have lived the adventure of loving this incredible man for 38 years. He passed the way he lived, on his own terms, surrounded by the people he loved, in the the place he loved best.
Betsy Devos proposes spending federal money to arm teachers. The same teachers who use their own funds for school supplies....hmmmm maybe we should arm them with school supplies.

Can we talk about what happened yesterday? Pretty please?
I take no delight in seeing the steady collapse of a U.S. Presidency, but I do take strong comfort in knowing that the rule of law & our great government institutions are prevailing. Things ultimately will get better, and we will heal as a Nation.
Republicans in Congress should ask themselves one question: “If Barack Obama was implicated as a co-conspirator in campaign finance violations for pay-offs to keep affairs quiet, what would I do?”
We all know the answer - Calling for investigations and impeachment.

Oh man. Manafort found guilty on 8 counts and Michael Cohen pleading guilty on the same day. Trump is going to melt into an orange puddle, much like the Wicked Witch in the Wizard of Oz. This telenovela got real good all of a sudden.
