SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES
Yeah, in Trump's batshit press conference yesterday, he bragged about all the judges he's pushed through in his time in office and claimed that's because Obama became complacent.  The latter was, of course, just another lie.

The Republican Senate, under McConnell, stalled then blocked Obama's nominations in his second term, just like McConnell did with Obama's pick to fill Scalia's seat on the Supreme Court for over a year.

It's time for the Dems (and decent Republicans) to step the fuck up and fight back if they really care about fairness and balance. I see that starting to  happen and hope it continues.

It should not be that powerful lobbies (primarily religious and corporate) can grab and maintain control of the country's future by offering large voter blocs and campaign donations to politicians, with GOP leaders changing the established rules as-needed to achieve their goals.  

First step..............get the full Congress out of Republican control this year.  If Kavanaugh gets confirmed after his entitled sniffling shit show today, I do believe that will significantly increase Democrat and Independent voter turn out.
