Kavanaugh polling shows why the “yoga vote” is a bunch of nonsense. 83 percent of Black and 66 percent of Latino voters support Dr. Ford while only 40 percent of white voters believe her.   Hundreds of protesters were arrested yesterday in “Cancel Kavanaugh” protests in DC and around the country.  Amazon raises its minimum wage to $15/hour.
