California just voted to give violent felons serving life sentences a shot at parole – because apparently "life without parole" doesn't mean what we thought it meant. Senate Bill 672 would allow murderers who were under 26 when they committed their crimes to petition for release after just 25 years behind bars. We're talking about people who stabbed victims 28 times, bombers, and killers – but hey, as long as they didn't torture anyone or kill three people at a school, they might get a second chance at freedom.The state estimates this could release 1,634 violent offenders back onto California streets, potentially saving $100 million over ten years. But with a 70% recidivism rate, that means roughly 1,143 of these "reformed" criminals could reoffend within five years. What happens to the families who were promised justice? What about the victims who thought their attackers would never walk free again?Is this misguided compassion or just California's latest gift to criminals? How do you explain to a murder victim's family that their loved one's killer deserves a "balanced approach" that considers the offender's rights? Let us know what you think in the comments below, and don't forget to subscribe for more government accountability content that exposes these taxpayer-funded failures.

3pm: WA Senate votes to cap rents, but not before making big changes // I Stand Corrected - Ask, Tell, Correct or Yell at John about anything // John, you're so full of crap. Most of these people came from generational wealth much like yourself. I doubt that you were raised in a home that lived paycheck to paycheck. // SPD is looking for volunteers to get high

(The Center Square) – The Washington State Senate on Thursday approved a 10% cap plus the consumer price index on annual rent increases, drastically changing a House of Representatives version of the bill that had a 7% cap. Following more than 90 minutes of floor debate, Engrossed House Bill 1217 passed on a 29-20 vote. Sen. Sharon Shewmake, D-Bellingham, sponsored the amendment to increase the rent cap to 10%. The amendment narrowly passed, 25-24. EHB 1217, one of the most controversial pieces of legislation introduced this session, now heads back to the House for approval of the changes made by the Senate.

The Washington Senate has passed a 10% cap on annual rent increases under EHB 1217, sending the bill back to the House for approval.

The Montana Senate voted to punish a Hamilton Republican Tuesday following an ethics investigation into claims he abused his power and wasted taxpayer dollars.

This Day in Legal History:  Wong Kim Ark becomes Wong Kim ArkOn March 28, 1898, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in United States v. Wong Kim Ark, affirming that a child born in the United States to Chinese immigrant parents was a U.S. citizen by virtue of the Fourteenth Amendment. Wong Kim Ark was born in San Francisco in 1873 to Chinese nationals who were legally residing in the U.S. but ineligible for naturalization due to prevailing immigration laws. After a visit to China in 1895, he was denied re-entry on the grounds of the Chinese Exclusion Act, which severely restricted immigration from China and barred Chinese nationals from becoming citizens.The Court rejected the government's argument that children of Chinese immigrants were not subject to U.S. jurisdiction and thus not entitled to birthright citizenship. In a 6–2 decision, the Court held that the Fourteenth Amendment guaranteed citizenship to nearly all individuals born on U.S. soil, regardless of the nationality or immigration status of their parents. This decision established a major precedent for interpreting the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and reinforced the principle of jus soli, or right of the soil.The ruling came during a period of intense anti-Chinese sentiment, when the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and its extensions aimed to restrict Chinese immigration and civil rights. Wong Kim Ark was a significant rebuke to efforts that sought to limit the constitutional rights of U.S.-born children of immigrants, and it laid the foundation for future interpretations of birthright citizenship.The Senate's vote to repeal the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's $5 cap on overdraft fees is a clear signal: protecting bank profits matters more to Senate Republicans than shielding consumers from predatory financial practices. With a 52-48 vote, Republicans—joined by only one Democrat—moved to dismantle a regulation designed to curb exploitative overdraft charges that routinely hit working-class Americans the hardest.This isn't a technical policy disagreement—it's a choice to side with an industry that routinely charges Americans up to $35 for covering small shortfalls, even when the overdrafted amount is often less than the fee itself. The CFPB's rule was narrow, targeting only large banks and credit unions with more than $10 billion in assets, and still allowed higher fees if justified by actual costs. It was a modest, evidence-based consumer protection measure.The financial industry's immediate lawsuit and the GOP's use of the Congressional Review Act to kill the rule reveal the coordinated effort to preserve a lucrative revenue stream. The overdraft fee fight is just one piece of a broader Republican strategy to roll back protections the CFPB has implemented—protections meant to hold powerful financial institutions accountable.No one should mistake this vote as anything other than what it is: an effort by Senate Republicans to keep consumers on the hook, ensuring that banks and credit unions can continue bleeding them dry in the name of "choice" and "flexibility"—buzzwords that conveniently mask an enduring deference to corporate power. They'll couch these kinds of moves in language of fairness–pretending they ensure lower-income consumers are given access to these financial instruments. A moment's reflection, however, makes it clear that even under their best dressed reasoning they're looking to enable banks to charge exorbitant fees to account holders in precarity. Senate Votes to Repeal CFPB's $5 Cap on Bank Overdraft Fees (1)Yesterday, President Donald Trump issued an executive order against the prominent law firm WilmerHale, following its connections to Robert Mueller, the former special counsel who led the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The order directs federal agencies to cancel contracts with WilmerHale's clients, revoke lawyers' security clearances, and restrict access to U.S. government buildings. This is part of a broader strategy targeting law firms with ties to Mueller's investigation, including Perkins Coie, Paul Weiss, and Jenner & Block.Trump criticized Mueller's investigation as an example of government overreach, labeling it as politically motivated. In addition to its ties to Mueller, Trump also accused WilmerHale of discriminatory practices in its diversity programs, echoing similar claims against other law firms earlier this month. The firm, which has a long-standing history of handling high-profile cases, responded by labeling the order unlawful and vowed to seek appropriate remedies.WilmerHale, a major player in litigation with over 1,100 lawyers, represents a variety of high-profile clients, including Gilead, Comcast, and Meta Platforms. The firm has also been involved in cases challenging actions taken by the Trump administration, fueling further tensions. Notably, Trump also targeted other firms for their involvement in the Russia investigation and opposition research, but some, like Paul Weiss, have managed to have orders rescinded by agreeing to specific terms, including providing legal services aligned with Trump's agenda.Trump Hits WilmerHale With Executive Order Over Mueller Ties (2)Trump targets another law firm, citing ties to Robert Mueller | ReutersA federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from enforcing a Labor Department rule that would force grant recipients to abandon their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. The decision, issued by U.S. District Judge Matthew Kennelly in Chicago, halts a two-week enforcement window of a January executive order that required organizations receiving federal funds to certify they don't operate any DEI initiatives—even those unrelated to their grants.The case was brought by Chicago Women in Trades (CWIT), a nonprofit that trains women for skilled labor jobs and receives federal funding. The judge sided with CWIT's argument that the DEI restriction violates First Amendment protections, noting that such a rule could pressure grantees into self-censorship. Kennelly also blocked the Labor Department from terminating CWIT's funding under Trump's directive to eliminate “equity-related grants,” though this protection applies only to CWIT and not nationwide.Kennelly's order represents a legal pushback against Trump's broader effort to dismantle DEI initiatives across government agencies and contractors. While a federal appeals court recently upheld a temporary ban on DEI programs in federal agencies and contracting businesses, this ruling suggests courts may scrutinize how far the administration can go in policing DEI-related activity outside direct federal oversight.The ruling underscores an emerging legal battleground over free speech, anti-discrimination law, and the limits of executive authority in regulating DEI efforts.Judge blocks Trump's Labor Department from requiring grant recipients to abandon DEI | ReutersA federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to preserve Signal messages exchanged by top officials regarding planned military strikes in Yemen. The messages, inadvertently shared with a journalist from The Atlantic, revealed internal discussions involving Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and CIA Director John Ratcliffe about timing and targets of attacks against the Houthi militant group. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg's ruling mandates that all Signal messages sent between March 11 and March 15 be retained by the agencies involved.The order came in response to a lawsuit filed by American Oversight, a government watchdog group, which argued that the use of auto-deleting messaging apps like Signal violated federal record-keeping laws. The lawsuit doesn't focus on the national security aspects of the disclosure but rather on the legal obligation of government agencies to preserve official communications.The controversy deepened after Attorney General Pam Bondi publicly criticized Boasberg, accusing him of political bias and claiming he was attempting to obstruct Trump's agenda. Trump himself has previously called for Boasberg's impeachment after the judge blocked a deportation policy targeting Venezuelan migrants—an action later upheld by an appeals court.The White House has not commented on the matter, but the episode has sparked scrutiny over the administration's handling of sensitive military planning and whether efforts to bypass official communication channels undermine transparency and accountability.Judge orders Trump administration to preserve Yemen attack plan messages | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Sergei Rachmaninoff.This week's closing theme is one of the most beloved and instantly recognizable moments in all of classical music: Variation XVIII from Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, Op. 43 by Sergei Rachmaninoff, in a solo piano arrangement by Schultz. Rachmaninoff composed the Rhapsody in 1934 during his later years in exile from Russia, blending his romantic sensibilities with virtuoso brilliance. The work is a set of 24 variations on the 24th Caprice by Niccolò Paganini, itself a legendary theme known for dazzling technical demands.While most of the piece is fiery and rhythmic, the 18th variation stands apart—lyrical, sweeping, and emotionally expansive. In fact, it's a musical inversion of Paganini's theme, reimagined as a lush romantic melody that seems to rise straight out of the piano's depths. Rachmaninoff himself admitted it was his favorite part of the piece, and it's easy to understand why: it's tender, grand, and full of longing.This solo arrangement by Schultz pares down the orchestral drama but keeps all the expressive power, letting the piano sing with full-hearted warmth. The variation has since transcended its classical origins, appearing in films, commercials, and pop culture, yet it never loses its emotional punch. It's the kind of music that doesn't need explanation—it just resonates.Rachmaninoff, ever the late Romantic in a century veering toward modernism, poured his soul into his music. This variation, placed deep in a virtuosic whirlwind, emerges like a moment of clarity—an unguarded confession in a storm. Let it carry you out this week. This is a public episode.

Senate Republicans on Wednesday passed a measure to allow payment apps like Venmo and PayPal to return to ideological debanking—repealing a rule implemented in December by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Repeal of the rule would leave users of the apps in limbo, as the laws protecting consumers would still be in place, but the rule enforcing the law—and the bureau with the capacity to enforce it—would not. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the bill, which has not yet passed in the House, and how it will allow these payment app companies to deny service to individuals or groups on ideological grounds. Plus segments on Americans' declining support for Israel, Matt Taibbi's perspective on why the left should support Kash Patel's efforts to reform the FBI and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's bellicose rhetoric toward China.

The senators of the Show-Me State approved an amendment to their constitution aimed at exclusively reserving the right to vote for U.S. citizens and prohibiting the use of ranked-choice voting methodology. The bill, referred to as SJR 78, awaits scrutiny by the House of Missouri. Passing muster here will pave the way to a place on the ballot in November. The salient feature of the amendment clearly states that only U.S. citizens of 18 years or more, residing in Missouri or any political partition thereof, intending to cast their vote, will be granted the right to participate in any election. The language of the bill is very specific in its requirements. The amendment asserts that all elections are to be carried out using either paper ballots or any other legally acceptable mechanical means. The bill contains further stipulations regarding voting; each voter is allowed only one vote per issue. It maintains that the number of votes cast for offices should match the respective number of positions available. The amendment establishes crystal-clear guidelines around the voting process. Under no circumstance is a voter allowed to rank candidates while casting their vote for a particular office. A system favoring the candidate who achieves the greatest number of votes in a party primary seems to be the direction they're heading in. Laying out further constitutional pretense, the bill specifies that the candidate who secures the most votes from their party's primary will be the sole candidate representing that political party during the general election. The name of the selected candidate will then find a place on the official general election ballot, unless they are removed or replaced following the legal framework. Spencer Bone, the Executive Director of Liberty Alliance USA, outlined the threat Missouri faces each year from the Left's quest to manipulate the electoral process. He delivered strong words on the strategies used by left-wing activists to disrupt the existing political structure, to ensure the voice of conservatives is silenced. Bone lauded the Senate's affirmative action on SJR 78 as vital progress in intercepting the Left's intention to upend elections. He openly championed the need for the House to mirror the Senate's stance. The urgency for the House to retain the established position and complete the task at hand was powerfully emphasized. Jason Snead, serving as Executive Director of the Honest Elections Project Action and leader of the Stop RCV Coalition, vocally paralleled Bone's sentiment. He too pointed out the relentless attempts by progressive groups to infuse ranked-choice voting and non-citizen voting into the electoral process, with sights set on skewing American politics leftward. Snead commended the Senate's bold countermeasure to face these issues head-on, thereby directly representing the will of the people of Missouri. He was skeptical about the optimistic picture painted around ranked-choice voting, voicing strong reservations on its implementation. He expressed concerns that ranked-choice voting would precipitate unwelcomed complications rather than resolving existing ones. Snead opined that introducing such a model threatens to befuddle voters and imposes additional responsibilities on election officials, complicating their duties. Snead further questioned the authenticity and readability of election results under such voting system, hinting at increased difficulty in their comprehension and credibility. His observations were based on evidence from cities across the country that attempted, and subsequently repealed, ranked-choice voting due to its inherent complexity and confusion. Highlighting the enormous financial backing from the nation's left-wing patrons, Snead indicated that self-serving interests are working tirelessly to modify election rules. He laid out his argument against the inception of ranked-choice voting and non-citizen voting, seeing them as selfish strategies to tilt the political balance. For an in-depth critique on the perils of adopting ranked-choice voting, readers may explore further with the suggested reference. The recurring dialogue on fair and transparent elections continues amidst the contesting views of different political factions. In sum, the Missouri Senate's decision signals strategic steps towards redefining voting rules. As debates and discussions around issues of citizenship and voting structure continue, the bill clearly sets a precedent for the consideration of measures ensuring the sanctity of the democratic process.
