As he so often does, Lindsey Graham is distorting history. Of the 40 Republican senators voting in 1973, a clear majority, 25, voted to override Nixon’s veto of the War Powers Act. It wasn’t just liberal Democrats.

Rep. Angie Craig: "We were told because this facility is being funding by the 'Big Beautiful Bill,' not the congressional appropriations act, that we would not be allowed to enter the facility. That's complete nonsense ... I informed them they were violating the law. They said they didn't care."

Trump Orders Sweeping Withdrawal From International Institutions
Seeing the list in full makes the reality unavoidable: United States is stepping away not from one institution, but from the architecture.

Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine.

We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.

BREAKING:

The House Judiciary Committee just released — on New Year's Eve — the 255-page transcript of Jack Smith's closed door deposition.

House Republicans continue their attempts to bury Smith's testimony.

If you watch the deposition of Jack Smith, you'll conclude as a matter of necessity that Donald Trump should be in a federal prison right now rather than the White House. He's only living outside a cage due to dumb luck. And all of us are paying the price.

Canada Fights Fire With Fire

Trump operates like a mob boss collecting protection money. He assumes everyone will just submit.

Wrong.

Canada, America’s polite northern neighbor, finally decided to quit backing down and start fighting back.

A disturbing update to this story: Despite the fact that he was about to be released from a US prison after completing a sentence here, when Kelvin Membreño was deported to El Salvador he was sent to CECOT prison and remains there. The family has not heard from him since.
NEW — Kelvin Membreño will be deported to El Salvador by ICE tomorrow. He’s the birth father of three US citizen daughters and has become an important part of their lives.

Here their adoptive mother makes a last ditch plea to let him stay in the same country as the girls. A gutting guest essay:
A mother's urgent plea to stop ICE from deporting her daughters’ birth father tomorrow
He served his time in the US. He deserves to heal here, too.

MAGA House Republicans slammed the door on affordable health care.

By a 204–203 vote, the GOP-controlled House blocked a Democratic bill to extend ACA subsidies.

Leadership cut the vote short, even as members were still trying to vote.
