Thursday
I am running late for work today so I am borrowing. Luckily, The Power of Many is full of smarties so I have a lot to choose from.

Here is a great idea from D.H.
The Senate Judiciary Committee is set to vote on the confirmation of two of Trump’s judicial nominees when they return from break. These nominees have a history of inflammatory “Fox News” like blog posts. Here’s a report on those blog posts: http://www.npr.org/…/senators-grill-trump-judicial-nominees…
Not the kind of people from whom you could expect unbiased court decisions. 5 calls has a nice review of each of these men. Check it out:
John K. Bush: https://5calls.org/issue/rec3q0qDDoP4c7yrH
Damien Schiff: https://5calls.org/issue/recOy7I82l5NqBw8Y
Guess what? Both Klobuchar and Franken are on the House Judiciary Committee. Contact them to oppose appointment of these two judges.
Al Franken: 202-224-5641
651-221-1016
Amy Klobucher: 202-224-3244
612-727-5220

Here’s another one, borrowed from Rogan’s List:
Trump's nominee for the top Dept. of Justice civil rights' position is Eric Dreiband whose civil rights record is questionable. This is one they are hoping will not be on our radar.
http://www.politico.com/…/activists-oppose-trump-civil-righ… “Whoever leads the ‘crown jewel’ of the Justice Department must have deep relationships with stakeholders and marginalized communities, and have a deep, abiding faith in our nation’s civil rights laws,” Gupta said. “They must respect the laws that touch everyone, rights that people have literally died for. They must respect the role of what has been called the conscience of the federal government. In all those regards, Eric Dreiband is woefully unqualified to lead the Civil Rights Division.” Let's tell our Senators that we oppose Dreiband for this important position.

And finally a call for our representatives:,
Lest we think efforts to sabotage the ACA have diminished, Congress is moving to prevent the IRS from enforcing the provision that requires Americans to have health insurance or pay a tax penalty. This change would be included in the annual spending bill for the Treasury and the IRS and is thus much more likely to pass than McConnell’s “health care” bill:

t is essential that we call our congresspeople and make sure they oppose the Treasury spending bill, if it ends the individual mandate.
