Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.

Democratic Governors Must Declare States of Emergency Now

They are building the legal case to deploy active military on our streets. Inaction is not an option—it’s a surrender.

Six bayou deaths in 11 days is highly suspicious. I can understand why the leap to serial killer (and there may be one), but the victimology is so diverse in gender, age. 🤷‍♀️

It is pretty galling that the Supreme Court spent four years telling Biden "you can't do that without Congress" then allowed Trump to seize a once-unthinkable amount of power from Congress within nine months and concentrate law-making authority almost entirely in the executive branch.

From the memory hole: There was a hostage release and ceasefire deal in place by the Biden administration 10 months ago. It was allowed to expire in March, under Donald Trump, and now it's been revived and rebranded, with Donald taking full credit like always.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

The Harvest Super Moon BEAMS over the Bay Bridge.

This photo was taken by Kim Kowalewski on Monday night. With clearing skies, you can check out the moon again tonight. Moonrise is at 722p in DC. The moon will be about 98% full.

Wear a jacket... it's getting chilly out there!
