Can they recall him and then court-martial his ass?
He’s a Seal, FFS. A disgrace.
Ridiculous. As in, literally, worthy of ridicule.
This 28 second clip alone could help to bring down the US President.
Trump clearly says this "war" is "not for now", showing there is no immediate risk by Iran. That means, as per the War Powers Act 1973, he has broken the law by not gaining Congress's approval for this action.
-Failure of a president to appoint replacement is an assumed reappointment, or cedes choice to next president
-But, failure of Senate to hold hearings within 90 days waives their right to advice and consent. Silence cannot continue to be a method of withholding consent.

I generally agree, but it can be easier:
-12 year term
-3 successive president terms each get 3 full appointments, all of which start on Inauguration Day of next presidential term
-Appointments for death or impeachment just fill remaining term
-Eligible for one reappointment (total 24 years)

That describes a lot of the modern human condition: energy, climate change, healthcare…
I’m not sure it describes this. Food production takes space, and that’s not infinite.
Ok, but don’t overhype this. Just because Rs aren’t voting in the primaries doesn’t mean they won’t fall in line in November.
Dude, your definition of “burden” leaves something to be desired.
Did nobody at Wharton ever explain the reason for a progressive tax system in the context of the relative size of the “burden”?
Um… sure…
I admit, I don’t know the context of you bringing this up.
The question, though, is: could all of us grow/hunt/gather/catch enough food on said acre to sustain us?
It’s not population density that’s the problem. It’s food availability.

A) This is a lie. Other countries have it.
B) Trump uses it regularly.
Bottom line: They are afraid of you voting.
It was only a matter of time before the mom from last week's SNL skit called in to CSPAN
The (Episcopal) Bishop of the Diocese of Pennsylvania
Massie especially, and every Congressperson who voted for this, have the responsibility to publicize identities of redacted powerful people in these files.
Trump signed this. He has no right to protection now.
Just convince JD it’s time for a coup. I certainly don’t think he’s beneath it- it’s the only way he’s ever going to get to be president.
BREAKING: Rep Ted Lieu just called for Deputy AG Todd Blanche’s resignation, and points out why partying with Epstein actually would be illegal.
I am the stereotype.
No, it’s not a justification or a defense.
But yes, they should absolutely go down with you- and hard.
In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law.
The liberal squish who wrote the majority opinion in that case? Justice Antonin Scalia:

Ban whistles. Go ahead.
You’ll just create a whole new generation of bagpipers.
If money is speech, surely being loud and annoying using any means necessary is too.
But no, our education system isn’t failing our kids. American Government, especially, is doing just fine.
(Spoiler alert: they do. See Yick Wo v. Hopkins, Plyler v. Doe, Zadvydas v. Davis, etc. Those 3 cases alone cover 115 years of SCOTUS precedent.)
If this were written by my friend @metricmodulation.bsky.social it would somehow end with the sentence:
This story is not about hot dogs.
Boy, you had to clean that up right quick, didn’t you?
You should probably tell the AUSA in Central CA
It’s a sight to behold, for sure.
Ok. Here we go.
Oh good Lord…
Susan Collins is concerned again.
They ought to be.
It’s about goddamn time these fucks decide to be consistent
