GOP can't stomach a taste of its own map-rigging medicine

Congressional Cowards is a weekly series highlighting the worst Donald Trump defenders on Capitol Hill, who refuse to criticize him""no matter how disgraceful or lawless his actions. Multiple GOP lawmakers this week accused California Democrats of corruptly trying to redraw their state's congressional districts, even though the Golden State is moving to redraw its maps only to counter the naked power grab Republicans pulled off in Texas with their mid-decade gerrymander.

5 things that are not cruel and excessive in Trump's America

Well, thank god justice has prevailed, and President Donald Trump and his family will not be forced to pay the $500 million penalty in the New York state civil fraud case over their years-long habit of providing inflated property valuations to banks and insurers. Sure, the New York state appellate court that threw out the penalty made sure to say that Trump and his companies did indeed engage in fraud""but decided they don't have to pay, because the penalty was an excessive fine that violated the Eighth Amendment.

Black Music Sunday: They shouted the blues

  Black Music Sunday is a weekly series highlighting all things Black music, with over 275 stories covering performers, genres, history, and more, each featuring its own vibrant soundtrack. I hope you'll find some familiar tunes and perhaps an introduction to something new.

But I've overlooked a blues performance style that has had a major impact on other genres of Black music over the years, and those who perform it.

Why Republicans keep saying slavery was great

Most rational human beings who know anything about American history believe that the practice of slavery was one of the United States' original sins, and that it was allowed for too long.
