The War Powers Resolution gives Congress the power to force the President to report on offensive military actions that the President takes. It also gives Congress the power to stop future strikes. I have little hope Congress will invoke this power.

Educators Sue to Challenge Trump Administration's Efforts to Weaponize Civil Rights Laws, Attack Educational Programs and Student Opportunities - Democracy Forward
Super proud to be a sociologist. I'm so thankful that the ASA is fighting back against these efforts to rob our students of an accurate (and often transformative) education. These legislators don't want to "protect" students; They are scared as hell of what happens when students know their history.

Trump cuts aid to South Africa over βracial discriminationβ against Afrikaners
US president also offers asylum to Afrikaners and criticises law that allows land seizures without compensation in some circumstances
Pay. Attention.
This is an open effort to spread white supremacy at home AND abroad. He will offer asylum to Afrikaners, but not brown people. This administration doesn't care about "protecting borders". It cares about white people. ONLY white people.
