could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

Gotta admire the truly old school energy of shaking your cane angrily at a man intent on overturning the democratic order.
Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) just heckled Trump, standing up, shaking his cane at him and telling him, “You don’t have a mandate!” Republicans almost immediately drowned him out with “USA, USA, USA” chants. Green has left the chamber.

“There’s a certain amount of rhetoric that we take as normal now . . . and it’s a really dangerous way to run a country,” Bishop Mariann Budde says. “If we talk to each other like that all the time, we are going down a path of self-destruction as a nation.”
