Good news out of Arizona though I wonder if the bill will ever become law.  The vote was just too close for comfort.

The second day of the trial of millionaire (so far) acquitted serial killer Robert Durst continued today with the prosecution's case:

Prosecutors in Los Angeles say that Durst’s killing of Black is part of a pattern of killing anyone who was a threat to expose him.

According to prosecutors, Durst murdered his young wife, Kathie McCormack Durst, in New York in 1982 in order to avoid a divorce.

McCormack’s body has never been found.

Investigators in Westchester County, New York, probing the McCormack case scheduled an interview with Susan Berman, Durst’s good friend from California.

On Christmas Eve, days before her interview, Berman was found dead in her home with a gunshot wound to her head.

Berman knew too much about Durst and his crimes. She was too close to him for her own good.

We will see if he gets away with it--again.

I am so grateful Sanders will never be the Democratic Party nominee for president:

The mayor of Burlington, Vt., wrote to a Soviet counterpart in a provincial city that he wanted the United States and the Soviet Union to “live together as friends.”

Unbeknown to him, his desire for friendship meshed with the efforts of Soviet officials in Moscow to “reveal American imperialism as the main source of the danger of war.”

That mayor was Bernie Sanders, and the story of his 1988 trip to the Soviet Union has been told before. But many of the details of Mr. Sanders’s Cold War diplomacy before and after that visit — and the Soviet effort to exploit Mr. Sanders’s antiwar agenda for their own propaganda purposes — have largely remained out of sight.

Without many caucuses this year unlike 2016, Bernie Sanders wasn't going to be a real threat to Joe Biden.

He wasn't a real threat to Hillary Clinton in 2016 WITH all the caucuses, as anybody with any sense would know.

All he is is a grouchy old man with the same old script.  He needs to retire.

Speaking of Sanders, Nina Turner is no help for him judging from the video:
