Thank you! Followed!
Exploiting or exposing?
I think you're on thin ice about this one, Angry. The Executive can't get away with not gaining authorization by simply by-passing an official declaration of war. An order is unlawful if it violates the UCMJ, International law, or the Constitution, and it would seem we're there.
No one is surprised that they are removing his name and / or files, right? We knew this would happen
Call these wavering Senators to tell them not to take this ridiculous deal. The ACA absolutely will be done if they do. #DemsDon'tCave
He wants to be able to declare war (which he can do without Congress if they aren’t in session) so he can invoke wartime privileges.
What are insiders saying behind the scenes and will they ever grow, er, gather the courage to speak publicly?
We’ve got a fascist take-over, military invasion of our cities, school shootings, and NOW the @nytimes.com decides to put the Mini behind a paywall?? How much more can we take?? 😫
There were two choices. One was brilliant and capable, and supported poc, women & lower income brackets. Then there was a fascist who wants to wipe Gaza off the map. People “couldn’t” vote for the brilliant and capable choice because they “despaired of the whole system”? And where did that get us?
💯 And it’s an army which is better funded and the Marines and which hasn’t sworn an oath to the Constitution
I’d bet on the Heritage Foundation, but yes
It’s almost as if… no, it couldn’t be… that some of those vocal protests last year that were clearly well-organized yet no one would name the organizers… Project 2025-funded?
And without health insurance, once the BBB kicks in
Unfortunately, I think you are very right. These are dark times
They don't need MD. They have / are getting what they need. Example: www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
I'm not saying it can't be changed or stopped, but that window is narrowing. And to say there isn't a problem is incredibly naive
“Elections” will happen the same way they have in Russia & Hungary. Meaning the appearance of elections but not actually open & fair. How? Voter suppression, gerrymandering & MAGA as heads of election boards. It’s all been put into place over the last few years. P2025 has been playing the long game
In a normal cycle, yes. We are passed that now. They do not care what the law says; they're doing whatever they want to, anyway.

I don't think enough people were paying attention to that part. ICE, a private military, is now more funded than the U.S. Marines.
I hope so, but the vast impact of this bill won't hit until after the midterms. By design
Not AI. This is a real tweet from a Republican congressman from Wisconsin. The cruelty is the point.
Joe, anyone can yell anything. Mamdani has said he doesn’t use that language but isn’t running to curb someone else’s free speech. I thought you Libertarians were big on things like freedom, even if you don’t like what’s being said. Interesting, where you chose to draw lines
Lisa Murkowski is perhaps the most compromised (and despicable) person in politics. And that is saying A LOT
When has Mike Lee ever been principled? He is a horrible person
Welcome Joe.You’ll find Democrats are also freedom loving, we just want EVERYONE to be free!
EXACTLY. All these people talking protest "strategy" and "taking a break" and "don't give him what he wants" are speaking from pure privilege. This is not a game
The GOP is far from panicking. They just passed a budget that will decimate many of their constituents and districts, all while chanting “USA! USA!”. These aren’t people who are worried about midterms. It should cause us to wonder why.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda.
Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them.
I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.
The Trump Administration is now deporting legal U.S. citizens. This is a reminder that Republicans could stop this if they cared
