No, they could forsee it. They tried to build in safeguards, but they feared demogagues that could fuel mass delusion and corruption. It just took 200+ years to occur.

This draft dodger, who liked to pretend he was in the military by wearing this cute little costume in high school, is planning to use our real military domestically against US citizens. This violates the Posse Comitatus Act enacted in 1878 to stop our military being used as a domestic police force.

Prove citizenship to vote? For some married women, it might not be so easy. Legislation in Texas, part of a broad GOP push led by President Donald Trump to require voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship, is expected to go before the state House soon. Critics say the bill wo...

Women voters may want to watch what's happening here in Texas. It's reasonable to conclude that the #GOP and its #MAGA, Christian nationalist allies are trying to make it harder for you to vote. If this passes, your state may be next.

Good timing. I had some bills to pay! I'll take the gains and call it good. Trump has already cost me enough this term.

Why Trump Suddenly Declared Victory Over the Houthi Militia

The con man can declare he won and then walk away from the fight that he arguably should have walked away from in the first place. As J.D. Vance might have said, this is a fight for Saudi Arabia and Israel.

Too plain. Not enough gold and glitter!

Republicans are pulling the rug out from under the clean tech industry. The way to read the text is a full repeal of the tax credits. They’ve proposed shifting tax credit eligibility from when projects commences construction to when they’re operational. This will gut clean energy development.

Love this.

Still the Monkees! 😂

He kind of looks like Himmler?

The new prime minister of Canada and the new pope kind of remind me of each other. It's remarkably nice to have some world leaders who are low-key and a little humble.

The CFPB Has Been Gutted The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau terminated the positions of 1,406 employees at the congressionally-mandated agency.

"What they’re doing is systematically gutting all efforts to protect service members, and all Americans, from fraud and scams while simultaneously letting Wall Street, Big Banks and Big Tech off the hook," Emily Peterson-Cassin, corporate power director at the Demand Progress Education Fund, said.

Great post. Thanks for the history lesson.

Congrats on your Gators. Did not see it since I'm in New Zealand (where I may or may not be first home shopping? Given the prices and Trump stock market -- not likely. 😂😢) and time tables are all screwed up. Now if Florida can only play football. Cheers, amigo.

Reduce liquidity, make riskier loans, stimulate business to offset tariffs -- that would be a spledid recipe for the next big banking and economic crisis.

It's a good thing that I live 1,500 miles from family. There are few points of interaction. I call and talk to my 90 y/o mom, but avoid politics.

Look what we have here. Another #MAGA pervert arrested for sex crimes. What a SHOCK, I'm telling.
At least he doesn't have a high post in Trump's cabinet. Yet.

Two weeks post knee surgery Leo is getting some rays. No running, jumping or chasing squirrels. Stationary barking at UPS and Fed Ex trucks allowed.

This the high degree of leadership one expects from a Fox News star and serial assaulter and groper.

no

No question about it. Once upon a time the U.S. supported free nations either invaded by or threatened by invaders. We poured immense amounts of aid into the Soviet Union during World War II.

It's not about the money. It is about power. Trump/Musk exercising their presumed powers.
