Even with everything else going on, I am still fixated on this obscenely terrible and dangerous headline from the Washington Post.

Do they really believe that Democrats are looking to be politically targeted, manhandled, handcuffed and arrested or are they sucking up to their billionaire owner?

The fact that our military was perfectly happy to use weapons abroad in violation of the War Powers Act doesn't bode well for us when they are asked to use weapons at home in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.

all i want is to one day own a modest sized home in a walkable neighborhood and raise money for shelter animals. wear an outfit i like, walk to the grocery store, buy some nectarines, feed cats, and live in peace. just don't understand why achieving this is so hard

If Democrats truly want to appeal to young men, they should probably start presenting themselves as the party that definitively *wonโ€™t* draft you into an illegal war.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war thatโ€™s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America canโ€™t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.

Make it make sense.

The United States never has enough money to keep people alive at home but always has enough money to kill people overseas.

Congress didnโ€™t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

Could just one mainstream media outlet say the Iran strikes were unconstitutional and an abuse of his powers?

Wow so youโ€™re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it?

Youโ€™re kidding.

Since it is Juneteenth, I will share a lil something...

My ancestors were slaves in Texas & were freed on June 19, 1865. They came together to meet with other ex-slaves & formed the Limestone County 19th of June Organization. They bought 30 acres of land on Lake Mexia.
