2 underreported stories thx to Trump's idiotic wall [View all]

2 underreported stories thanks to Trump's idiotic wall delusions:

1:
#SCOTUS disregards Establishment Clause to expedite prisoner death
https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/scotus-disregards-establishment-clause-to-expedite-prisoner-death-1439948355738

Hobby Lobby disaster wasn't a one-off. Conservative "originalist" hypocrites apparently have deleted the Establishment Clause from their copy of the Constitution. Even this atheist thinks a condemned person should have religious counseling/comfort of their choosing, not the choice of a theocratic state.
