There isn't anything technically complicated about how the opposition can resist Trump in Congress.
It's just a mindset adjustment more than anything.

Good thing our counter-terrorism czar is a 23-year-old Heritage Foundation intern whose previous experience was *checks notes* secretary general of a Model United Nations club in college
Please join me tonight at a candidate forum hosted by the Charles County Democratic Central Committee and moderated by Tracee Wilkins from @nbcwashington.com. We'll be at the Jaycee's on Crain Highway in Waldorf from 5:30pm.
The event is open to the public, but no swans will be in attendance.
Vaguely recall that a paroled inmate committing a terrible crime was enough of a scandal to undercut the Dukakis campaign. This is objectively worse in term of Trump's responsibility, but will get a fraction of the attention.
All, please follow @citizensimpeachment.com with a whole long list of Congressional primary candidates (including me, in Maryland 5th) who have pledged to back impeachment proceedings. Already have @analiliafornj.bsky.social in NJ-11 and other coming down the pike to help form a caucus next year.
I realize that itβs hard to keep track of all the impeachable offenses that the Trump administration commits on a daily basis, but that shouldnβt be an excuse for allowing them to continue. In Congress, Iβll fight to impeach, convict, and remove the President and his out of control administration.
We could have built this ourselves, bombed it ourselves, and rebuilt it ourselves again, and it'd still cost less than what we've actually spent on wars in the Middle East for zero return
Holding my son makes everything feel so much more immediate and personal. Iβm running for office in the first place because I want him (and every kid) to grow up in a country (and a world) that is free, democratic, stable, and secure. Thatβs the world Iβll be fighting for.
Toby is entering a world that feels far less stable than the one I grew up in during the 1990s. Iβm so angry watching American leadership slide toward gangsterism: war with Iran, cozying up to authoritarian regimes like Russia, and picking fights with democratic allies for Trump's personal benefit.
Sorry Iβve been a little quiet on here. Our son Toby arrived earlier than expected! Heβs unbelievably tiny, but doing well so far. Heβll be in the NICU for a few weeks, not much to do except watch him breathe. But I have a feeling Iβll be doing that the rest of my life! Peak millennial parenting.
Folks look at you like you're crazy when you say we're in the midst of the worst, most unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis in American history, & then it's Monday
He recently, finally, announced his retirement! Now running in a 24-way Democratic primary.
To be clear, the GOP majority abdicating its congressional responsibilities and ceding its power to the executive is a choice.
Republicans could call votes and end this today if they wanted to. They choose not to.
They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).
The War Powers Resolution needs a complete overhaul because it's obviously failed, but at the end of the day, there's no procedural trick around having a Congress that's willing to stand back and watch a president flagrantly break the law and the Constitution and do absolutely nothing about it.
Our country is being run by a bunch of incompetent morons with the world's largest military budget, what could possibly go wrong?
Do we have a Constitution anymore, or is it just optional? Because if itβs the second thing it opens up a lot of options about what to do with these guys
the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.
Pete Hegseth saw this and said "a computer can never be court-martialed, therefore a computer is a great tool for committing war crimes"
democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly
I arrived in Kyiv on Day 38. The Russians had recently pulled back, but there were still roadblocks everywhere. The Ukrainians were prepared to fight for every block all the way into the center. Seen along the highway near Vasylkiv, "Welcome to hell, Russian f****t."
Glad we have you as our governor π
States like ours are the true bulwarks of liberty against a Federal government gone insane
Danish PM on Facebook this morning:
βI am happy to live in a country where there is free and equal access to healthcare for everyone. Where insurance and wealth do not determine whether you receive proper treatment. The same approach exists in Greenland. Happy Sunday to you allβ
Behold, the Yoon Seok Yeol impeachment commemorative towel.
Someday, we Americans shall too have a timestamped impeachment commemorative towel, inshallah.

a lot of you are probably too young to remember this but there was a time when the married dhs secretary using taxpayer money for a custom built fuck palace in the sky for her to bang coworkers wouldve been a big deal
Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible βAmerica at 250!β achievement
