Elizabeth Warren donates $250,000 to the DSCC.

Submitted by Shirley on Wed, 07/20/2016 - 5:45pm

Our campaign just donated $250,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee – to help our 2016 Senate candidates take back the majority. Will you chip in right now and be a part of our work to stop Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump?

That was the last straw for me. No way do I want any money I donate to Warren to go to the DSCC, who then turn around and give that money to blue dogs and conservative democratic candidates.

An extremely short note but I was in the hospital since Friday morning with severe pneumonia. It came rather too close to getting me permanently so from now on I'll be sure to be careful and take better care of myself. I'll write more later.

Welcome back to Video News! I still think Stephen Colbert has one of the funniest perspectives on the conventions. Of the clips I found at YouTube today - from the Late Show last night - I think this is the funniest. It also gives the most information about yesterday at the convention:

Taking it to court

Submitted by Robyn on Wed, 07/20/2016 - 2:49pm

A FreeState Justice has filed a lawsuit in Federal court against Talbot County on behalf of a 14-year-old Maryland transgender boy accusing an Eastern Shore school system of violating Title IX by denying him access to locker rooms consistent with his gender identity.

The boy, who was not identified in the lawsuit, will be a ninth grader at St. Michaels Middle-High School, and wants to try out for soccer in August, according to Jer Welter, FreeState Justice's deputy director and managing attorney.

During last school year, the boy used a gender neutral restroom far from the gym and his classrooms.

This has been a problem. It is stigmatizing for him. It marks him as different from the other students.

Hee Haw! Guilty!

Say what you will about Rethugs, once in awhile you gotta admit they can do the deed.

For your dining and dancing pleasure, I give you the NJ Weeble Wobble ("Weebles wobble, but they don't fall down") Chris ( no bridge too far) Christie!

Guilty, guilty, guilty.
