If war powers still belong to Congress, why is Trump pretending he has two weeks to personally decide if we bomb Iran?

Yes! This!
Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.
@roxanegay.bsky.social maybe you’re right.

What Noem said is crucially important: “‘We are not going away. We are staying here to LIBERATE THIS CITY from the socialists….’ The Trump administration is vowing to get rid of the democratically elected government of California by using military force. THAT THREAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A COUP.”

As an obsessive watcher of hearings: Republicans routinely talk to Democratic officials this way. Democrats never do the same to GOP officials, esp. once in office. They often condemn, but more in sorrow than in anger. Not here.

It is time for a new Latino political movement in this country. I’d love to see a million Latino march in Washington. To remind Trump and his people that we are Americans too.

He’s a liar just like the rest of them. Kehoe ran as a “moderate.”
He’s actually an extremist who doesn’t think working Missourians deserve $13.75/hour or earned sick time…even when the voters approved both.

My feeds are lighting up that I can watch the Met Gala tonight. I could not possibly care less. It's grotesque, frankly, that as their country is falling apart, as their democracy is being dismantled, a bunch of rich people will try to out-dress each other and media will breathlessly report on it.

“Farm bailouts” don’t go to farmers.
They go to…
Seed companies,
Agrichemical companies,
Machinery manufacturers,
Etc…
This is why farmers blow their brains out when their farms fail due to economic factors, like tariffs and sanctions. Crop insurance doesn’t even cover it.
