Oklahoma House Passes Bill To Give Immunity To Drivers Who Hit Protesters

Apparently, conservative Oklahoma wants to make murder legal. Is that even legal?

Indict Trump, Already, Before He Leaves The USA!

Donald Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, said he would go in for a seventh interview on Wednesday with the Manhattan district attorney’s office pursuing a criminal investigation into the former U.S. president.

In a brief interview with Reuters, he likened a March 1 U.S. Supreme Court decision denying Trump’s last-ditch effort to keep his tax records private to the “holy grail” for Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance Jr.’s investigation into whether the Trump Organization committed financial crimes.

FDR in 1944, recalling this month 1933:

“You remember...the starvation wages...foreclosures of homes...bankruptcies of business...the young men and women...facing a hopeless, jobless future...the blank despair of a whole nation...the utter impotence of the federal government.”
