Trump: No Special Prosecutor, Impeachment Unlikely
I just learned that Mitch McConnell has rejected calls for a Special Prosecutor to investigate the Trump team’s ties to Russia, and Russian interference in our election. But as much as Trump should be impeached, and deserves to be impeached, and as much as we need a special investigator to examine his ties with Russia, I’m afraid that the Left is underestimating the corporate desire to tear down the American Government.
Unmasking “The Federalist Society”
AKA: State Funding of Religious Schools is a Terrible Idea
I saw an excellent YouTube ad for the Federalist Society, that presented what seemed on the surface to be a fair and balanced view of an issue I was interested in. The ad had the tag: “Debate – Discuss – Decide”. It sounded good. So I went to their site. Alas, I was misled.

The thesis of this book, in a nutshell, can be stated as follows:
Problem: Money in politics.
Solution: A trust network for voting advice.

References and Call to Action
A Voting Advice System has the capacity to make money irrelevant to elections and break the stranglehold that corporate money has on the political process. That change, in turn, would break the log jam that currently makes it virtually impossible to solve the pressing problems that confront our civilization, and that imperil our very survival.
Prospects for Change
Clearly, a voting advice system would have a resounding effect on democracy that would reverberate through the corridors of government. But is such a thing possible? Can we build it? And if we do, will people use it? The answer is, “Yes!”
