    I suppose Michael Avenatti can use all the help he can get.

    "Before airing the interview, Snow said: "NBC News, for the record, has not been able to independently verify her claims. There are things she told us on camera that differ from her written statements last week."

    The Big Lie is a hard sell these days. "High tech lynchings" don't work anymore. Get used to it

    She has not said that, and when she does go over the line she apologizes quickly.
    Ginsberg is an excellent lawyer, and has been a very effective justice.

    She denounced Trump and apologized - not sure she needed to apologize for frankly expressing her opinion. Ginsberg is the best of the progressive justices, and apparently a fine honorable human being. Pretty good for a Democrat/lawyer. ;-)

    No

    It has been verified that it is the exact opposite.

    Those who are the descendants of the slave owning population in the South are overwhelmingly still Democrats.

    Typical

    This will also give you an insight to the shift in the south.

    Almost all of the Congressional Dixiecrats remained in the DP for the duration.
    A few switched parties - and their stance on segregation.

    If you choose not to educate yourself I can't be of help. I suggest you read the articles I have posted.

    I keep asking for an example but no one can provide one outside of a remark made against trump. Care to quote what you are referring to?

    I have always agreed with Roberts idea, “We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges, What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them. The independent judiciary is something we should all be thankful for.”

    Seems trump and now thomas disagree

    If trump has accomplished anything, he has shown the country just what his party really believes and the depths they will go to control it.
    I hope all voters that are not ideologically locked consider this in future elections.
    They have proven both sides are not the same as many previously believed.

    Why are you so hostile? We are here to share opinions not websites.

    Ginsberg is okay, but the justices are political appointees. They are not chosen for their objectivity.

    I'm not being hostile. I am frustrated because I am posting proof of my assertion and people are refusing to read it. But do what you want. I don't care.

    You have posted no proof. Just a link that you say will prove something.

    Just copy/paste your proof and you will get a response.

    I agree, we need to get rid of Trump, what he did to people like John McCain is horrible - vote in 2020, let's make Trump a one term President

    Roberts rewrote part of it so it would be a tax and thus Constitutional and not a penalty which is what the Obama Admin claimed it was...

    Geeze....

    and once again, republicans were for it before they were against it

    http://swampland.time.com/2010/02/16/health-care-republicans-oppose-their-own-idea/

    "In fact, says Len Nichols of the New America Foundation, the individual mandate was originally a Republican idea. “It was invented by Mark Pauly to give to George Bush Sr. back in the day, as a competition to the employer mandate focus of the Democrats at the time.”"

    Republicans also tried to push the individual mandate under Clinton...

    This was a compromise with republicans, Dems had no issue with it being removed from the ACA
