Reddit: How can Trump and only Trump make all these decisions, where is the rest of the government?

wildfyre010 • 24m ago Congressional Republicans control both chambers of Congress, and have completely abdicated their responsibility as a co-equal branch of government. Congress could stop Trump's war today, or remove him from office tomorrow, at will. But they have chosen not to act. The Constitution provides appropriate checks and balances for an unrestrained executive branch. But it provides no remedy for a plurality of elected senators and representatives actively refusing to uphold their oaths or do their jobs.

It do be like that...

just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him

Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk The state board of elections found Musk’s PAC sent prefilled ballot applications.

The story that Elon Musk committed voter fraud has gotten next to no coverage -- one of those things you can't make come up on a Google search.

But I think it's time for Dems to go on offensive abt right wing coddling of this immigrant interfering in our elections.

The Simon Snow series by Rainbow Rowe is really good. Looking for Group by Alexis Hall. Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy was also really good but it’s the first in a trilogy and there’s no release info for the next two yet.

Ultimately, Petitioners may, because of the arcane United States immigration system, return to their home country, involuntarily or by self-deportation. But that result should occur through a more orderly and humane policy than currently in place. Philadelphia, September 17, 1787: "Well, Dr. Franklin, what do we have?"

thought I had another good Bovino joke but came up short on the punchline

KARE 11: Minnesota DOC launches new website to 'address ongoing misinformation by DHS' The DOC names Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino directly in a statement.

Minnesota Department of Corrections Statement on Minneapolis Shooting and Federal Claims January 24, 2026 The Minnesota Department of Corrections (DOC) extends its condolences to the family and loved ones of Alex Pretti, who was shot and killed by federal agents this morning in Minneapolis. The loss of life is tragic, and Minnesotans deserve transparency, accountability, and facts. In the hours following the shooting, U.S. Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino held a press conference asserting that the operation was targeting an individual named Jose Huerta-Chuma and characterized him as having a significant criminal history. Because federal statements have repeatedly included inaccurate information about Minnesota custody and criminal records, the DOC reviewed available records to determine whether the individual referenced had any connection to Minnesota state prison custody.

ased on DOC records and publicly available Minnesota court data: The individual identified by federal officials has never been in Minnesota DOC custody. DOC and court records show no felony commitments associated with this Public Minnesota court records reflect only misdemeanor-level traffic offenses from more than a decade ago. The individual is not currently under DOC supervision. DOC records further indicate that an individual by this name was previously held in federal immigration custody in a local Minnesota jail in 2018, during President Trump’s first administration. Any decisions regarding release from federal custody at that time would have been made by federal authorities. DOC has no information explaining why this individual was released.

Things are so bad that the Minnesota prison system has had to launch a website specifically to combat DHS lies. The first major release from DOC officials suggests Gregory Bovino outright lied about the target of the Border Patrol operation during which agents shot and killed Alex Pretti.

On the right, a masked ICE agent in tactical gear with an “ICE” patch visible on the chest. White overlaid text reads: The Trump administration has weaponized ICE and Border Patrol, turning those agencies into masked, hostile police forces that are terrorizing the American people. ICE has become a rogue agency that has gone far beyond its original mandate. It should be immediately dismantled.
