This political update addresses five current events in American politics. First, a briefing on the presidential signing of an Anti-polygamy Bill to operate in Utah, which the author calls a "clumsy" solution to a moral and political problem. Second, a briefing on the president's veto of a bill against Chinese immigration. Third, an explanation of the ongoing Shipherd investigation. Fourth, discussion of Irish-American immigrants being held in England. Finally, the update addresses and increasing divide between the Republicans and Democrats.
