​Trump Says the U.S. Has Completed Air Strikes on Iran β€” The Wall Street Journal President adds three nuclear sites in Iran were attacked

We are now at war with Iran

Put aside whether Trump conducting air strikes was legal or not

Because only Congress can declare war-as if the Constitution matters any more

This imprudent action against the world's foremost sponsor of terrorism will get Americans killed

Sen. Chris MurphyΒ to NBC on Democratic opposition to the GOP mega-bill: "What we're standing in the way of is the most massive transfer of wealth from the poor and the middle class to the rich in the history of the country."

How about some basic rules?
--All law enforcement officers should wear identification
--No law enforcement officers should be allowed masks
--All law enforcement officers should wear and use body cams
...oh and...
--All law enforcement officers should understand, respect & follow the law

Call me a radical, but I would rather keep programs like meals on wheels going rather than spending millions on a military parade for a draft dodging president.

I’m no lawyer, but if a president doesn’t support the Constitution, then maybe he should just run for mayor instead. We’ve got a country to run, not a guessing game about the rules. If a president’s not sure if he’s supposed to support it, maybe it’s time we put the β€˜fine print’ in big bold letters.

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

@gtconway.bsky.social is not backing down. If he has any fear of retribution, he’s not allowing it to shape his decisions or what he says. That’s incredibly important at this critical moment in history.

Paul Weiss isn’t made of the same stuff.

I think Rubio's body language says he didn't expect this lack of diplomacy, and outright bullying of a victimized country. He doesn't like being there. I don't know if selling his soul has reached the surface yet.

I can’t believe this needs to be said, but cutting funding for cancer research is not how you make America great.

Hey. Here are the names of the unauthorized dudes who are creeping into government computers:

The engineers are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.

These are the DOGE boys.

A Message to the US Senate
YouTube video by The Lincoln Project A Message to the US Senate

A message to the US Senate: America is watching. Patel, Gabbard, and RFK are more than just unfit. They are a danger to our country, and to our people's safety. Use your vote to protect the people you represent. History will remember your choice.

That is the congressional way of saying "Well bless your heart."
And we all know that's not good.

It’s worth noting that the president of the United States today made more racist comments than we’ve seen any president make publicly in, what, a century? More publicly racist comments than many presidents who were, with history’s eye, virulently racist humans, but ones who at least knew their role.

Kash Patel’s hearing to be Trump’s FBI Director is coming up tomorrow.

He has a long history of spreading lies about the FBI and of smearing the public servants who work there to keep us safe.

You may mean well by simply stating what we all obviously already knew. But are you getting a sense of the rage at how under-reactive you and your Democratic colleagues have been? We are furious at the lack of resistance and Voice.

Donald Trump and JD Vance claim that the pardons of violent criminals were about due process and "liberty."

They were not.

I feel like the real shock coming out of the Inaugural Prayer Ceremony is that the Church was able to physically withstand the tsunami of sin contained within the first three pews alone...

For those of you out there who are looking for a miracle, there you have it...
