I like the writing. It’s hard but it is a more intense form of thinking. There are surprises.
It should be 10. I will never understand this.
Congress needs to end this illegal war.
I’m calling on all my colleagues to vote yes on the bipartisan War Powers Resolution today.
Do not teach lies. I’d rather have that be the work of ethics than legislation.
On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died.
Just another day/reminder of how “the richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit.
We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.
MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”
Worth preserving for posterity
She won’t look at them. And she sneers.
I have been ashamed since AbuGhraib
!
Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.
But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.
🚩 House Oversight just voted 24-19 to SUBPOENA AG Pam Bondi over her half-baked Epstein files release.
Key docs still hidden.
Redactions everywhere.
Powerful names protected.
Enough is enough.
Tell Congress: FORCE Bondi to release EVERY unredacted file NOW. No more cover-ups! 🔥
And incompetence.
The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. They’re tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.
Donald Trump cannot be trusted to lead America into war. He is unaccountable to America. He is lawless. He only seeks conflict to cover up for his failures.
Congress must step up, reassert its power, and represent the American people.
We do not want another forever war.
God, whom, he cannot speak for, his wife whom he is speaking for, but his constituents?
I tried making this point with an audience of lawyers and judges and was met with a (mostly) collective shrug from two schools of thought: Those delighted with AI* as a kind of magic show, and those who only cared its effect on their bottom line.

Himes on war powers: "That is not a debate that the Republicans want to have, because a year ago they turned the Congress into the Russian Duma. We don't have a Congress today. We have a majority party in the House and Senate that's going to do exactly what Donald Trump tells them to do."
True but the oops defense, always weak, is especially contemptible in an unconstitutional war.
War crime
Fair enough if you ask me.
I’m an American and I’d apologize. Especially to Canadians. In fact: Canadians, I am profoundly sorry that we cannot get rid of, impede, obstruct this insane and incompetent administration. I am embarrassed before your sane, polite, and responsible selves.
You’re right. I thought he was a reasonable guy but now not so much.
