Description
We start the week with more devastating news out of Ukraine. Then we hear a bizarre story involving five fetuses found in the home of an anti-abortion activist. Disney is at odds with the state of Florida over the "don't say gay" bill. Another new bill shows there may be hope for the legalization of marijuana nationwide. Sarah Palin is throwing her hat into the ring for a vacant congressional seat. The Will Smith saga refuses to go away, as the actor has resigned from the Academy. And finally, in some encouraging news, the first Amazon warehouse has successfully voted to unionize.
