Uncle Clarence and Aunt Ginni are Proof the Supreme Court Needs Oversight

There is irony in requiring oversight on the highest level of the judiciary. If there is a group to which the Supreme Court answers, that group would become the Supreme Court and would become subject to the corruption someone like Uncle Clarence brings to the nation's highest court. 

Supreme Court justices should be beyond reproach, and not beyond accountability for blatantly ethical and possible criminal violations. The oversight needs to come from within the Supreme Court itself, and it is time for them to do it. They won't have Uncle Clarence on their side, but he is only one person. Anyone on the bench who thinks what he and Aunt Ginnie have done is okay are probably corrupt themselves.

Tulsi Gabbard Voting "Present" Reflects Divide in Nation, Not in Party

When the articles of impeachment against Donald Trump were voted upon this week, four Democrats broke from what was otherwise a party line vote. One voted yes on one and no on the other, two voted against both articles, and Tulsi Gabbard voted "present."

It is understandable that of the four people who did not vote along party lines, Gabbard is the one who is most noticeable. She is a presidential candidate. She is the person who resigned her spot in the DNC and supported Bernie Sanders in 2016. She is the person who scolded Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg in the debates.
