Joaquín Castro (born September 16, 1974) is a Mexican-American politician who has served since 2013 in the United States House of Representatives for Texas's 20th congressional district. The district includes just over half of his native San Antonio, Texas, as well as some of its nearby suburbs. From 2003 to 2013, he was a representative in the Texas House of Representatives for District 125. While in the Texas legislature Castro served as Vice-Chair of the Higher Education Committee and was a member of the Judiciary & Civil Jurisprudence Committee. He has previously served on the County Affairs Committee, Border & International Affairs Committee and the Juvenile Justice & Family Issues Committee.
Castro's identical twin brother, Julián, served as Mayor of San Antonio from 2009 to 2014 and is now the 16th United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development in the Cabinet of President Barack Obama.
Castro was born and reared in San Antonio and attended Thomas Jefferson High School. Castro has stated that his interest in public service developed at a young age from watching his parents' involvement in political campaigns and civic causes. His father, Jessie Guzman, was a retired mathematics teacher from the Edgewood Independent School District in south San Antonio, and his mother, Marie "Rosie" Castro, a community activist. Jessie and Rosie never married. He graduated with honors from Stanford University with a Bachelor of Arts in political science and communications and earned a Juris Doctorate with his twin brother at Harvard Law School in Cambridge, Massachusetts. After law school, the two brothers continued together to work for the law firm Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld before starting their own firm in 2005.

In an interview with NBC News' "Meet the Press," Georgia's Democratic Representative John Lewis stated that he does not believe Donald Trump to be a "legitimate president," citing Russian interference in last year's election. "I think the Russians participated in helping this man get elected, and they helped destroy the candidacy of Hillary Clinton," Lewis remarked. "I don't plan to attend the inauguration. It will be the first one that I miss since I've been in Congress," the civil rights leader exlaimed. "You cannot be at home with something that you feel that is wrong, is not right." http://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/john-lewis-trump-won-t-be-legitimate-president-n706676?cid=public-rss_20170113 http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

Rep. Darrell Issa, (R-Calif.), on efforts repeal and replace Obamacare and concerns over Russian hacking.
After the initial shock
Of not having what you've got
And your body just drops away
Nothing has really changed
Thats frightening and its strange
And no one can hear what you say
And everything just lingers on
Like an echo of your favourite song
It was so simple after all
But now you're on the other side of the door
Knock-knock, let me in
Its cold outside in this cosmic wind
Knock-knock, let me in
Just for tonight
Will you drive an outrageous Cadillac
Wear cowboy boots and a funny hat
And speed through the lights downtown?
Is there an eternal Fate?
Will you see your eternal lover's face,
As you crash into the Milky Way?
And everything just lingers on
Like an echo of your favourite song
It was so simple after all
But now you're on the other side of the door
Knock-knock, let me in
Its cold outside in this cosmic wind
Knock-knock, let me in
Just for tonight
Been to heaven, been to hell
Lost my heart in cheap hotels
Been doing this for so many years
Now it doesnt matter what I wear,
How I look, what I own, if I care
