An extremely lib take.
My take: the constitution is wildly outdated and unsuited to the 21st century. There needs to be a constitutional convention and it entirely re-written.

The United States is not actually in a constitutional crisis. Our Constitution works just fine.
We are in a crisis of character — where nearly every single person who has sworn an oath to uphold our Constitution and enforce the law lacks the courage, moral fiber, and decency to do what is right.

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

If your plan for fighting fascism is just voting for more progressive Democrats in primaries you're fundamentally not a serious person.

They should, but won't. Because 90% of congressional dems are spineless cowards.
I actually think the dems should attend the SOTU, wait till the 2nd sentence, and then walk out en masse, that'll do it, there'll be no address, he'll just have a meltdown on national Tv

I know I'm out of touch because I loved Kendrik Lamar's first couple albums but listening to some of his recent songs I don't get the appeal. Which is fine, being 'in touch' is overrated.

These losers (congressional Dems) will never actually fight back will they?
Feels like such a metaphor for the Democratic Party right now. “Oh, there’s someone standing in front of me saying I can’t go in, I guess we have no choice but to accept this as valid and just post online.”

This is true. Trump may try to be funny, but he doesn't say things he doesn't mean. Ever.
Trump doesn’t make jokes. He famously has no sense of humor. He doesn’t tell jokes, he doesn’t laugh at jokes, he doesn’t understand other people’s jokes
Everything he says is 100% serious, if only for a given value of commitment. That he doesn’t follow through doesn’t mean he was joking

When discussing whether Elon Musk is a nazi (he is at least a fascist), remember he promoted an interview which said CHURCHILL was responsible for WWII-a take straight out of Goebbels' mouth. Then he had to visit Auschwitz because he agreed that 'Jews hate white people.'

I actually don't think the 'x industry relies on cheap undocumented migrant labor!' is the slam dunk its proponents think it is. Reminds me of the arguments against raising the minimum wage more than anything. Maybe your business model *shouldn't* be based on exploiting desperate migrants?

Reading a bio and it is really striking how isolated Churchill was throughout the the 30s. He was often the only 1 sounding the alarm about Germany when the entire UK establishment wanted friendship. Not a perfect comparison but reminds me of Ron Paul or Bernie Sanders when they were in the House.

So far the only article I've seen which points out that trump has no such authority. There are very specific provisions under which the president can delay implementation of this law and by EO isn't one of them.
BREAKING NEWS: The order follows TikTok going dark for about 14 hours after the Supreme Court upheld a law prohibiting the service from operating in the U.S. unless it breaks away from its parent company in China.

I keep seeing statements from Trump about stopping the Tiktok ban from going into effect with the 90 day pause. But since the law is ALREADY going into effect isn't that beyond his power?

TikTok has escaped political danger time and again. But after a decisive loss at the Supreme Court, the app is set to be blocked in the U.S. starting Sunday.

A slur for transgender women still used in China’s state-run media, and rarely elsewhere in Asia, renyao (人妖) is often translated as “tranny” or “ladyboy.” In Chinese, the pejorative sense is even clearer — literally meaning “human monster.”

What a surprise that clueless Andy can't use 'literally' correctly.
It’s funny to compare the flight from Twitter to BlueSky with that from TikTok to Xiaohongshu. Americans jumping to the latter are finding the Chinese app more restrictive than they’d hoped, although this is of course ‘based’ and ‘amazing’ in the eyes of some (though not based enough for others!)
