I think it is absolutely on brand. And I think they'll settle. We are really living in the upside-down.

President Trump Is Right About the Smithsonian The National Museum of African American History and Culture debuted a series to educate people on β€œa society that privileges white people and whiteness” β€”

Wow, thanks to the WH for compiling such an interesting list of exhibits we should promote widely and go visit. Hope the Wayback Machine preserves this so we can share it with our grandchildren. Please ignore the URL and title because no, he's a jerkbone.

I want to understand how this decision doesn't just lead to an outright invalidation of the constitution. Where CAN those f'ing bullshit EOs be adjudicated?

Last night Mom couldn’t sleep.
She was worried about something called
Immunity.
She said that’s when you can get away
with doing something wrong.
β€œLike the cats!” I said.
β€œThe cats get hollered at,” she said.
β€œBut they don’t care,” I said.
Mom thought about it.

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

Don't let them lie to you about Senator Padilla. DHS is claiming the agents DID NOT KNOW he was a senator. He CLEARLY says (BEFORE he is tackled and cuffed) "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have a question for the secretary."

Just so we're all clear: It's not a coincidence that the first senator they've used physical force against is Sen. Alex Padilla, a Latino man representing California.

Don't know if any Europeans are seeing this, but many Americans do not support the encouragement of Nazis in Germany, ethnic cleansing in Gaza, or extortion of Ukraine. Just for the record....
