Sign the petition: NO tax votes until Doug Jones is seated



 
 

Congress is in a tizzy. 
You can see it in the demanding tweets from the White House, in the staffers running about the Capitol: Republicans are desperate to pass their horrendous tax scheme as quickly as possible.
Donald Trump's extreme pick in Alabama, Roy Moore, thankfully lost his race. Doug Jones, a voice for reason, is headed to the Senate.
So Republicans are racing against the clock, looking to pass their tax boondoggle before Doug Jones is seated.
The election results in Alabama should be honored.
Alabama has chosen Doug Jones to represent them, and he deserves a chance to vote on this outrageous tax plan.

VOTE THE TURTLE OUT OF OFFICE! The war on drugs is an insult to the intelligence of the American people. There are mountains of evidence proving that the biggest importers of harmful, addictive, mind diminishing street drugs is the government. The drug laws that exist do not apply t o the government agencies that bring these substances to our country. They are only designed to keep everyone else from this extremely lucrative business and give the establishment another reason to oppress people.

Griffiths ( bgriffiths@politico.com ; @BrentGriffiths) TGIF, MASSACHUSETTS. IT'S GOP-VENTION WEEKEND -  Are you ready? More than 2,400 Massachusetts Republicans are headed to the City of Seven Hills this weekend for the state GOP convention - the confab that not only will seed the September primary ballot, but also give a peek into the hearts and minds of state Republican activists (all with the sweet, sweet convenience of being centrally located inside Worcester's DCU Center). And so, here are my three things to watch as we head into this weekend: - Trump's shadow . Gov.  Charlie Baker , the de-facto head of the state party, has taken pains to maintain daylight between himself and the president (and based off poll numbers, it appears to be working). But in a room fu...

Must Reads: R. Kelly's #MeToo reckoning, Charlie Rose's enablers, and Erik Prince's China

Image
Compelling, ambitious reads you can’t afford to miss. When national arts reporter Geoff Edgers started working on his penetrating look at years of sexual abuse allegations involving R&B superstar R. Kelly, he was worried he wouldn't be able to uncover anything new. Kelly's behavior, which included marriage to then-15-year-old singer Aaliyah and a video that appeared to show him having sex with a 14-year-old, was well known. But Edgers, with encouragement from his editor, Christine Ledbetter, focused his reporting on the industry that enabled Kelly's career to flourish amid one disturbing scandal after another.  "How do you ignore something like this for so long?" Edgers said he asked himself. "How does that happen? You trace it back to the money, and who are the people who benefited?" Edgers, who also hosts a podcast called Edge of Fame, called, emailed and texted the people who knew the answers to those questions dozens of time...
