This is what happens when you effectively have no ethical rules at the top of government β€” virtually limitless opportunities for insider profiteering.

Once again Trump demonstrates what a weak president he is. He's so weak he didn't think he could get even the limp-dicked yes-men in the GOP Congress to vote for his policies.

A pattern for the senile, old shit.

If Marc Thiessen is so confident that this war was good policy, the Trump administration should have had the confidence to seek authorization for it from Congress, as the Constitution requires.

Impeach everyone involved in this, disqualify, and convict, and then schedule their criminal trials.

"Seeks revenge" is a bizarre way to describe "suing over discrimination".

BRIT HUME: β€œThe public reaction is likely to be favorable, and I think these Democrats are kind of trapped."

"These Democrats, with rare exception...feel their job in life is to resist and oppose Donald Trump in every way, almost no matter what he does."

β€œOver time, those who are critical may feel vindicated if things start to go badly, but if they don't, they're going to be stuck with this."

β€œIf the Iranian regime goes down, and things turn out well in Iran, that will be a burden around their necks.”

Today would be a great day for an emergency session to pass articles of impeachment.

Heck, any day would be a great day for that.

But today seems really great.

The judges in WV have seen enough.

They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings β€” including against state officials who help them carry it out.

The constitutional remedy for a president who attempts to commit the United States to war without authorization from Congress is impeachment, removal, disqualification, and a criminal trial.

Timeline of events:
Today at 9:04pm. No response yet to my calls or messages to @DarioAmodei. 
Today at 825pm, @AnthropicAI writes β€œwe have not received direct communication from the Department of War.” 
Today: 5:14pm SecWar tweets supply chain risk designation. 
Today: I call Dario’s business partner at 5:02pm asking to speak to Dario because he hasn’t gotten back to me. She is typing while we speak and likely has lawyers in the room with no notification to me (that’s a guess! CA is a two party consent law so am hoping no laws were broken!). Says she β€œwill try to locate him.”
Today:  I call Dario at 5:01. No Answer. I message Dario asking to talk as well.  
Today:  Dario sends an email with redlines 3:51pm
Today:  @POTUS sends Truth at 3:47pm
Yesterday:  I email Dario comments at 10:54pm.  

Does this sound like GOOD FAITH

What this means for our customers

Secretary Hegseth has implied this designation would restrict anyone who does business with the military from doing business with Anthropic. The Secretary does not have the statutory authority to back up this statement. Legally, a supply chain risk designation under 10 USC 3252 can only extend to the use of Claude as part of Department of War contractsβ€”it cannot affect how contractors use Claude to serve other customers.

5th Cir. will not rehear this case en banc. The vote was 11-6 against rehearing.

Judge Oldham writes the principal dissent from denial of rehearing. But Judge Ho couldn't help but write a single paragraph of his own saying, essentially, me too.

The Trump administration won’t seek an appeal of the dismissal of the so-called death-eligible counts against Luigi Mangione.

The case will proceed as a non-capital case. Huge loss/face plant for Pam Bondi, who made a big show of this capital prosecution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In a single statement, Pete Hegseth has declared Anthropic a supply chain risk while *also* insisting it must continue to directly supply the Department of Defense for up to six months.

He's also claiming that designation has powers it doesn't (to cut Anthropic off from all business to suppliers).
