From New York, this is Democracy Now.

For calling, for common sense, gun legislation.

We are calling for a ban of assault weapons and the response of this body is to assault

democracy.

The Republican-controlled House in Tennessee has expelled two black Democratic lawmakers.

After they joined a student-led protest in the state, capital-demanding gun control

following last week's school shooting in Nashville that killed six, including three

nine-year-olds.

We'll speak to one of the expelled lawmakers, Justin Jones, then to the Middle East.

Those bombs said in Lebanon and Gaza's tension soar in the region after Israeli forces

repeatedly raid the Al-Axamas, beating and tear-gassing Palestinian worshipers during

Ramadan.

Holes are growing, finally, for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to be impeached,

following a blockbuster investigation by Proplica.

Our investigation found that Justice Thomas accepted lavish luxury travel from a billionaire

businessman named Harlan Crow for the course of many years.

To give one example, this businessman, Harlan Crow, flew Justice Thomas on his private jet

from the United States to Indonesia a few years ago where they were met by the businessman

Super Yacht, staff by private chefs and other waiters and other staff.

And they went island hopping in Indonesia for about a week and a half.

All that and more coming up.

Welcome to Democracy Now, Democracy Now.org, the Warren Peace Report.
