But I was told by everyone on the right that the only person who could deploy the National Guard (or prevent the deployment of the National Guard) was Nancy Pelosi.

This is so vague that it could ban the regulation of any kind of algorithm whatsoever; “automated decision system” is an extremely broad term!
This is insane. Republicans have inserted language into the budget reconciliation bill that would ban states from regulating AI in any capacity for 10 years.

I had no idea Graham is unwell. I haven't heard anything from him in a while and now that makes sense. He lives alone so I hope a family member has stepped in to assure he is safe and cared for. "A mind is a terrible thing to lose." - so true.

Please do not attach the Washington Post link to its articles. Many of us chose not to continue reading the post because of the pro Trump behavior. Thank you.

👉Convince at least 9 GOP House Reps to vote to oust Mike then become independents.
👉Convince at least 4 GOP Sens to become independents then oust John.
👉Stop the WH in its tracks!
👉Bonus points for convincing 16 GOP Sens to impeach the bastard!😏

If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.

Took our two year old son to his first protest today. He was raising his fist in the air and yelling “this is what democracy looks like!”

Keep downplaying the protests at your own peril.

Keep threatening Americans.

The protests will only get bigger.

Trump is hated.

Musk is hated.

The political winds have shifted.

People are fed up.

This is only the beginning.

The message is: crowd large.

Many politicians, administrators, and business leaders, in bowing to Trump, have drawn confidence and comfort from the perceived vibe shift.

Events like this puncture that delusion.
You can stop asking where the mass opposition is. It's everywhere.
People poured out to protest not only what Trump has done—and what they fear he will do next.

Ole Honest JD, famous for the "They're eating the pets of the people who live there" stunt during the 2024 campaign. Meet the legacy of a liar life JD. Are you wealthy enough and charismatic enough to revel in it like your boss? I think not.

When I was little I used to daydream. I would think "What if..." over and over, as children do. There was even a cartoon character with a magic crayon who would draw whatever he wanted to happen or have. Now we are living in a world under the rule of a bunch of Mike Johnsons with magic crayons.

Wow, so today vacationing in South Africa (where human rights abuses caused the US to pull support) - is cause for punitive exposure to harm for children of a former president. Interesting how his bmf is from South Africa and has a top security clearance and is the de facto CEO of the USA.

Mr. Musk already gets a lot from the US government - almost like a fabled welfare queen Reagan used to complain about. How 'bout he puts on his big boy pants and figures out how to organize his business to withstand these ebbs and flows of popularity? Like everyone else is expected to do.

Let's see ... is FEMA still viable or did it get tossed in the dumpster? I think they were on the list for elimination - at least.

Good thing 10 Democrats joined the Repubs in helping fund this government for the next 6 months - so Trump doesn't hurt anyone and to preserve our guardrails. Well done.
