My view of famous jazz singers: Ella Fitzgerald for the purity Sarah Vaughan for the pyrotechnics Dinah Washington for the fun Nina Simone for the attitude (and I mean that as a high compliment)

Not with a bang, but with a whimper.
It is cowardice, not violence, that will ultimately end the Constitution.

@MattPolProf I don't agree with Hayek... but I certainly respect his intellect. I also think his critique of left liberalism must be taken seriously.

I was once bluntly asked by a mid-level health insurance executive what I made a year. I added in an extra summer class, added 5000 to my salary, and then gave myself a 10% raise -- and gave him that number. He paused and said, "I pay more in federal taxes then you make year."

I had hoped she would at least be patriotic on this.
I will vote to confirm Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. While I continue to have concerns about certain positions she has previously taken, I appreciate her commitment to rein in the outsized scope of the agency, while still enabling the ODNI to continue its essential function in upholding national security. As she brings independent thinking and necessary oversight to her new role, I am counting on her to ensure the safety and civil liberties of American citizens remain rigorously protected.
