NEW: Pope Leo XIV met Lou Marini in today — the American saxophonist known as “Blue Lou,” a member of the Blues Brothers band. In 1980, a young Robert Prevost dressed up as a Blues Brother. The film was shot in his hometown of Chicago, and he saw it twice in theaters.

If all income in excess of $400,000 were subject to the Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. We could also expand Social Security benefits. There’s no reason even to consider reducing Social Security benefits or raising the age of eligibility.

Richards Street in Vancouver has four rows of street trees. This is only possible because the City repurposed space that is usually reserved for cars.

Street in Vancouver with two lanes of on-street parking, one lane for car traffic, two way bike path, and sidewalks on either side. Street trees are planted between the road and the bike path, between the bike path and the sidewalk, and on both sides of the right-of-way.

Can reporters stop using the word deal? It’s an agreement, a settlement, a treaty, an understanding, an MOU etc. Using the word deal is accepting his simple-minded TV game-show framing and contributes to the bogus drama he is trying to create.

Remember, back in December this same SCOTUS said it was too late to change Texas' maps (that had just been changed in August) after they were deemed (by a Trump-appointed judge) to be unconstitutional. So Dec. was too late, but May (after ballots have been sent) is fine? WTF?

John Lewis had John Roberts' number from the jump: takebackthecourt.substack.com/p/john-lewis...

Take Back the Court REP. JOHN LEWIS: In 1965, Jurist Roberts was only 10-years-old. He may be a brilliant lawyer, but I wonder whether he can really understand the depth of what it took to get the Voting Rights Act passed. The right to vote is precious, almost
sacred. It is the most powerful non-violent tool we have in a democratic society. As many of you know, I gave a little blood on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, but some
of my friends and colleagues gave all they had, their very lives for the right to vote. I feel that if Judge Roberts is confirmed to be the Chief Justice of the United States, the Supreme Court would no longer hear the people's cries for justice. I feel that the leadership of the Court will promote politics over the protection of individual rights and liberties. If the Federal Courts had abandoned us in the civil rights movement in the name of judicial restraint, we might still be struggling with the
burden of legal segregation in America today. Jurist Roberts's memos reveal him to be hostile towards civil rights, affirmative action and the Voting Rights Act. He has even said that Voting Rights Act
violations, and I quote, "should not be made too easy to prove.'

Are you going to mention that Justices Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett were all young lawyers on the Florida recount case in 2000 when George W. Bush stole the election? They should have recused themselves on all voter suppression and election stealing cases, but such cases are their raison d'etre.

A Supreme Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places the Court at odds with democracy itself. This is the legacy of Chief Justice John Roberts. I opposed his nomination back in 2005, and I stand by that.
