Yes, it bears mentioning that the entire battle is whether or not Trump can impose tariffs without the consent of the Senate as mandated by the Constitution.

He's threatening the world if he doesn't get the power to do things even his own party won't approve.

I am not a lawyer, but I don't think anyone can be charged for state offenses in Florida or New Mexico anymore, but New York might still be able to.

It's pretty likely he chose his locations to reduce his odds of prosecution.

My understanding is the victims aren't publicly naming their attackers out of fear. Most if not all offenses have exceeded the statute of limitations, and the feds have granted blanket immunity to all back in Alex Acosta's day.

So we're looking to ostracize the perps because we can't prosecute.

Yeah, those accounts are right wing astroturfing campaigns, or useful idiots used by the same.

Also expect non English speaking communities to be swarmed with misinformation.

These are the campaigns the Democratic party needs to fight, and it seems they aren't even aware they exist.

There was a huge amount of incredible music that came out in the 80's, and a lot of genres coalesced at that time. Punk, metal, industrial, goth, and rap all had golden ages in the 80's.

It wasn't all Hall & Oates and Whitesnake.

It's not remotely an accurate list, nor are counts meaningful even when accurate.

For example Obama is mentioned 2,485 times, because Epstein was obsessed with him, so Ghislaine would email Jeffrey links to every news article about him she could find.

Better to look at what's in the files.

Apparently, Elon spent two weeks asking to visit Epstein Island.

Pretty much exactly what I told my senator yesterday.

I'm suspecting they are just moving to Atlanta to try to see if they can use force to extort sensitive voter data from Georgia.

Minneapolis held firm, now it's the next city's test.

It's a useful angle because it clearly shows the victim was disarmed under the nose of the agent who began shooting.

A defense we might hear if ICE decides their current BS isn't believable enough is that the officer who shot didn't know he was disarmed. This angle will demolish that argument.

Schumer will cave. He always does. Maybe after they stick in some meaningless additional training verbiage.

Everyone write your senators! I already have, though mine aren't likely to be the problem.

Now let's work on "Progressive".

We'll take the millions of emails of DOJ staff talking about nothing as well, but the important files need to come out now.

I feel that we need to be specific about what files we want to see.

We need the contents of the crate of hard drives the FBI seized in 2019.

We need Epstein's wire transfer records.

We need the transcripts of the FBI interviews with Epstein's pilot, driver, chef, and Citrix administrator.

It's not a trade war. The market is gone. US soy farmers have been permanently replaced. They will never underbid the farms spun up in South America.

So to recap, the Supreme Court has been horrible for a very long time.

Later, when states began using the exception to prosecute white supremacists burning crosses on black folk's lawns, the exception was neutered because the Court decided that protecting hate speech was more important than the fighting words prohibition (R.A.V. v. St. Paul (1992)).

A little history.

The fighting words exception to free speech was added by the Supreme Court who were shocked to learn it wasn't a crime to call a cop a fascist. (Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire (1942)).

What can history teach us about what happens when a populist strongman with an idiosyncratic taste for low interest rates undermines central bank independence?

I've seen some unconfirmed reports on YouTube that there are mass killings occurring in Iran right now, far surpassing the bloody November numbers. The numbers range from 4k - 8k and are ongoing.

I would like to see the number of dead investigated and reported on.

What’s going on here

It's more accurate to say that Congress has delegated their authority to the President by statute, but Constitutionally the power still resides in Congress.

Every emergency power granted to the Executive branch by statute can be rescinded the same way.

Kind of burying the lede that a war between the US and NATO would be an open war between two nuclear powers.

We've gotten this far without that happening, but apparently that's long enough for Trump.

Masked federal agents removing crates of belongings from the ICE shooter's home

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

This will be the next quagmire.

It takes a lot of competence to achieve lawful evil, rather than chaotic evil.

Remember when we decided to run Iraq? We had to fly in a whole government of bureaucrats, admins, and diplomats, build them a secure compound, and defend them with an entire army.

This will be Trump's quagmire.

Buried further down it specifies 10 amps max. So even 6 x 2 amp usb plugs would overload it.

We got this outdoor 65' 18 gauge extension cord with a built in 6 AC outlets as a gift, and are too scared to use it for anything.

Every image on it's Amazon page, just seems worse than the last.

Apparently a surge protector with drainage holes is something I've been missing in my life.
