I've been to plenty of anti-fascist protests this year. One thing that seems in short supply is MUSIC. So I'm working up a short list of sing-a-long tunes to play on my ukulele. Number one is "All You Fascists Bound to Lose" (Woody Guthrie). What songs would you suggest?

SCOTUS shadow docket is out of control. A complete abuse that allows Trump admin to violate Constitutional rights without limits ... until someday maybe they actually rule on the merits (and probably even then decide that Trump is allowed to get away with it). [excerpt from today's ruling in NYT]
The Supreme Court on Monday lifted a federal judge’s order prohibiting government agents from making indiscriminate immigration-related stops in the Los Angeles area that challengers called “blatant racial profiling.”

The court’s brief order was unsigned and gave no reasons. It is not the last word in the case, which is pending before a federal appeals court and may again reach the justices.
