Pay attention.

"Plenary authority is legal power that is full, complete, and unrestricted in a specific area. When used in reference to government officials, the term "plenary power" is more common."

My Magic 8 Ball says, "All signs point to buckle the f*%k up."

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

PP billed taxpayers for 8.8 million dollars in 2024 on-top of his salary, mansion, chauffeur, cook & waiting staff.
PP voted against free breakfast for kids now I ask you, how many meals for hungry Canadian kids would that feed every morning?
The "man" is a political scam artists has been for 20yrs.

There is currently a petition to the House of Commons asking the government to draft legislation that would make it so MP's could not lie and spread misinformation/disinformation.

Sounds like a good idea to me 👍

British Columbians polled 93% in favour of ending it back in 2019, but Hogan's NDP wanted to wait for neighbouring states to get on board. Problem was that in US it's a federal not a state decision so here we are in limbo, 6 years later. Changing clocks twice a year is assinine.

Bruce McAllister should step down, not only for the 'spanking' remark but also for not allowing this student to ask a legitimate question about tax-payer money going to private schools.

The Government is now shut down, but apparently nobody called the school in the Bronx that had come to the Capitol for their tour today, so they're getting the treat of a lifetime since AOC agreed to give them the tour herself!
I’m loving this for all of them!

BREAKING: Governor Pritzker calls for the removal of Donald Trump as President by invoking the 25th amendment. EVERY governor should stand behind the Illinois governor. Governor Pritzker also cited health concerns for the president. He is clearly not well.

Brilliant takedown of #PierrePoilievre by Adam van Koeverden.

“Earlier this year when the leader of the Conservative Party lost his job he didn’t lose his house.

That’s because he lives in government subsidized non market housing.” …yet PP always opposes such assistance for others.

i dont agree with everything this 3 star general has to say, but do see the benefits of a year-long mandatory service in the fields of public health support, environmental support, youth services and civil protection. Not about going to war, but a learning opportunity.
