It's very stupid on their part to bring back repeal from the dead. But it's a good reminder that the only way to end this threat is to wipe them out of office.

They would need to pass a budget resolution to do a partisan repeal bill. But any non-zero risk is a serious threat given the stakes. Contact your member of Congress now. Organize for the elections now. Get fired up!!!

From the article:
“It is a source of simultaneous pain and pride that Alabamaâs progress has often been the result of force, of violent push and pull, among conflicting visions of the state, from the Civil War to the civil-rights movement and beyond. Throughout, the burden of guilt has usually been on black people to bear and to somehow escape. Now, a visitor to Montgomery can take a leisurely walk from the state capitol to a museum on the Confederacy, to another museum on the Freedom Riders. The memorial to the victims of lynching is a necessary addition to that landscape, if only to remind Alabamians, and other Americans, that the terror it represents will no longer be overlooked.”

Democratic senators scrutinize Koch brothers’ ‘infiltration’ of Trump team
Senators say Koch-linked figures are driving environmental policy, as rĂŠsumĂŠs obtained by the Guardian and Documented show ties between staffers and network
Democratic senators are demanding information about what they call the Koch brothersâ âinfiltrationâ of the Trump administration, charging that Koch-linked personnel have secured key federal jobs and are determining US environmental and public health policy.
The senators â including Sheldon Whitehouse, Edward Markey, Catherine Cortez Masto, Tom Udall, Ron Wyden and Elizabeth Warren â sent letters to eight government bodies and the White House requesting âinformation related to efforts by Charles and David Koch, Koch Industries, and the numerous groups they fund to influence decisionsâ.
The Koch network includes advocacy groups and thinktanks funded by the billionaire brothers that tend to advance a stridently conservative agenda, including promoting energy extraction within the US and the sloughing off of regulations.
RĂŠsumĂŠs obtained through public records requests by the Guardian and Documented, a government watchdog group, show the close links between high-ranking federal staffers and the Koch network.

These women were harassed by the Chronister father and son (Jordan is a co-owner of the golf club), because they wanted to revoke their memberships. They harass the women almost as soon as they started their game hoping to start an aggressive confrontation so they could call the police. When that didn’t happen, they called the police anyhow.
I hope to God these women sue and end up owning that golf club.
From the article: “…On just the second hole, former York County Commissioner Steve Chronister was pushy and aggressive, falsely accusing us of slowing down the other players. He said he was refunding our membership, so we would leave. We reminded him that we paid and wanted to play.”

AKA sorority chapter at small Georgia college embroiled in sexual misconduct investigation
Kyle Swenson, Amber Ferguson
Late last March, before a gymnasium packed tight with friends and family, 21 young women from Fort Valley State University in central Georgia marked a milestone.
Glowing with pride, wearing matching black dresses, pearls and pink hats, the undergraduates were officially âcrossing overâ into the campusâs chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Inc., one of the oldest and most-esteemed black Greek campus organizations in the country.
But just a month later, the Fort Valley chapter of the same sorority is now bogged down in a scandal over allegations of sexual misconduct and harassment.
Rolling Out, an Atlanta-based online magazine, reported that the controversy involves allegations that recent members of the sorority were involved in a sex ring to pay for pledging the organization. Citing unnamed sources, the magazine alleged that customers included local businessmen and politicians.
The controversy currently centers on Alecia Johnson, a Fort Valley State employee and graduate adviser to the campusâs AKA chapter, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Johnson, an AKA member, resigned her position in the universityâs presidentâs office as news of a criminal investigation broke on campus in April. The scandal has lit a firestorm of speculation on social media and in the tightknit world of historically black colleges and universities.

Cops called to UWS apartment for âburglary in progressâ but find black tenant, former White House staffer moving in
POSTED 6:33 PM, APRIL 30, 2018,
BY ANDREW RAMOS,
UPPER WEST SIDE, Manhattan â It was an unsolicited homecoming that left Bronx native Darren Martin unsettled.
After spending several years working on Capitol Hill and in the White House with the Obama Administration, Martin recently made the move back to New York, getting a job with the city and finding a unit in a 5-story walk-up on the Upper West Side.
On moving day this past Friday, Martin got an unexpected visit from the NYPD.
âIâm in my apartment but you know â you canât go nowhere without the cops following me,â Martin said during the encounter live streamed via Instagram.
Turns out, someone called 911 to report a âburglary in progressâ and the suspect was the buildingâs brand new tenant â Martin.
âSomebody called the cops on me in my own building,â he told viewers who were tuning in to watch the live video. âAbout how many are yaâll? About six of yaâll showed up, rolled up on me.â
He has a packed work schedule and that was the only time he had to move into the building.
âI didnât really think anyone was going to call the cops on me because I mean â I was moving into the building.â
