The power to declare war was considered among the most dangerous by the Founders, which was why it was given to Congress instead of the president (require higher threshold/buy-in than one man)

That a future Congress would abdicate that power would be unthinkable for them

Filmmakers: what is currently the WORST streamer for writer/directors? Which one would be most likely to say “nahhh…nm” and then shelve your project after it was done to write it off? Like, THAT bad.

Fake post about death toll in Iran.

This is a fake, and the post has thousands of likes and reposts inflated by a bot army. Report and block.

So so cool

If you’re passing through the airport in San Francisco this fab exhibit is still there to see in Terminal 1 next to gate B5 and very highly recommended

I saw this and at first thought "no, there's no way 'we definitely had alternative leadership in mind for Iran but I blew them up alongside the schoolgirls using AI' is what the White House is actually saying, that's too clueless and evil to be real"

OpenAI posted the terms of the deal. Reveals that it absolutely does allow for domestic surveillance. EO 12333 is how the NSA hides its domestic surveillance by capturing communications by tapping into lines *outside the US* even if it contains info from/on US persons.

It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.

Remember this?

Reported airstrike hits Iranian girls’ school Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations said the strike killed more than 100 children at the girls’ elementary school in southern Iran.

The U.S. military is “looking into” reports of a strike on a girls’ elementary school in Minab after Iran’s ambassador to the U.N. said more than 100 children were killed.

Footage verified by the Post showed a frantic crowd outside the school.

Proud to be the Irish outpost for StLCITY!

My @stlcitysc.com jersey has arrived today just as we Lillingtons gear up to watch the 1st and 2nd teams this year and my now-pro-signed nephew does his thing for St Louis on the pitch. Zack on the field the entire StLCITY2 match for their 4-0 season-starting win 🥳⚽️⚽️⚽️

Ireland’s GDP now officially a unit of measurement

My big takeaways from tonight's CITY2 win:
Zack Lillington is such a smooth player, really looking forward to him as the central CB.
The college kids had a pretty good understanding despite only playing the system for a few weeks.
Carlock and Jundt seem to be ready for these minutes. #allforcity
