Is this just a convinced Trump that they tried everything?
Is this the first R flip in any race during Trump 2?
Genuinely surprised he didn't throw a tantrum when Hegseth was referred to as the "Defense Secretary."
Maybe they're subtly saying their only issue is the environment, since this year's blizzard (at least in the northeast) was the first accumulation we've had in the better part of a decade.
But just to be on the safe side, the Supreme Court still has their thumb on the scale in places like New York.
There is no emergency power that gives him the ability to federalize elections, but pretending there is legitimizes it when he tries.
It's really hard not to compare the response to this and to Katie Hill in 2019. She left office for having a consensual threeway with her ex-husband who engaged in revenge porn. The difference? She was a woman and a democrat.
Nothing beats the Pam Bondi endorsement.
I are not entertained.
Mullin might be one of only two senators who are stupider than trump.
Apparently not. It's after March 1, which in oklahoma, the election won't be until 2028.
Weren't they contemporaries?
I know this seems interminable, but I would just like to point out that you've already made it 1/3 of the way from the 2024 election to the 2028 (and 2/3 of the way to the 2026 election). Keep going. We can do it.

- started a war in the middle east
- completely destroyed the economy
Is that historically predictive?
Doesn’t having a vote implicitly concede that he has the power to take over elections? His EO’s and pronouncements do it have the power of law.
tomorrow is with one of the biggest election days of the year. there's so much to go over it's hard to know where to start.
so, let me help:
here are the *10* elections i'm watching the most closely, *at the state and local level* (=no federal elections included!)

Just something I can’t get out of my head for some reason.
He may not be the most credible source.
I mean, Afghanistan and Iraq turned out to be incredibly popular wars, so...
And abroad by blowing up their schools.
Nothing that happens in this war matters more than the fact this is the worst violation of the Constitution in U.S. history, an illegal war crime
Unless Congress impeaches Trump this weekend, and it won’t, then we are a dictatorship, full stop
Do you dipshits think that Gotham city devolving into lawlessness when the Waynes were shot was based on a true story?
I’m not saying that the Boy Scouts are better than this, but I absolutely wouldn’t take hegseth’s word for it.
I got my phd in astrophysics there and my qualifying exam was almost exclusively wicked ideology. Probably varies by department.
