Rep. Khanna: We have not been briefed as an Armed Services Committee on what the standard is that is triggering the military to kill on our behalf. Pete Hegseth needs to come before the Armed Services Committee. He owes the nation a full, transparent explanation.

Rep. Smith: The second video shows the remains of that boat. They were clinging to what remained of it. They were not armed. They did not have communications devices. There was no evidence that cocaine survived. Why do you think they won't release this one? Because it looks bad for them.

What in the actual hell
I am not live posting the whole argument here because I want to listen closely to Trump v. Slaughter. But the solicitor general for Trump just said the point here in killing the independence of agencies like the FTC is that executive branch officers must “fear and obey” the president. Wow. #SCOTUS

Is it really necessary to resign from a job you were not lawfully in?
President Donald Trump’s former attorney Alina Habba said Monday she is resigning as the top federal prosecutor for New Jersey after an appeals court said she had been serving in the post unlawfully.

For the first time, the Kennedy Center Awards were presented in the tiny Oval Office instead of the Kennedy Center For Performing Arts. Donald used his now-vulgar Oval Office for the ceremony to avoid the embarrassment of TV audiences seeing an almost empty theater.

Naturally, but the GOP and their MAGA fluffers on social media will have nothing to say about this, and Mike Johnson will pretend not to see this story until 2029.

It’s ridiculous. Just laughable.
Trump has spent years fuming that he didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize. So a deeply compromised organization invents a “FIFA Peace Prize” just for him. It’s authoritarian ego-management 101: if reality won’t deliver a trophy, make one up. #holdfast #SteadyState
You can hear a CNN panelist off camera laughing as Trump gets the “2025 FIFA Peace Prize.”

Speaking as a Hoosier, this is a welcome observation.
Gerrymandering is terrible, a blight on democracy, blah blah blah. We all know this song. It is a true song, but stop for a moment.
The point I am making is that drawing a gerrymander in this case will hurt Indiana legislators' *self-interest*. I believe this is a new argument!

Will Hoosiers shoot themselves in the foot? If the Indiana Senate approves the state House's draft, Republicans gain two seats...but lose any chance of power in a Democratic Congress in 2027.
