Stormy Daniels on 60 Minutes Tonight – so what?

Everyone knows that Trump is an adulterous a-hole. For evangelical Christians, it simply doesn't matter. They like him anyway.

So what is the point? Why is this such a big deal? I have some thoughts on that of my own - but I'm seriously asking. Will this interview change anything?

Kerri Harris’ Common Sense Gun Violence Reduction Agenda

One puppy dies in an overhead compartment and the US Senate immediately considers legislation to protect these "family members."

These are the policies that the Warren/Sanders wing of the party advocates, and the policies that the Dem establishment (whose go-to donors would suffer under these policies) insist are unwinnable nonstarters.
