The media need to stop beating their chests about how powerful our military is.
It's a point of pride when your country has a strong military that keeps the peace.
It's a source of shame when politicians turn your strong military into an international armed robbery gang.

Republicans are NOT GOING TO "step up to the plate."
Schumer is an old school politician, playing by old school rules, saying what an old school politician would say under these circumstances.
Republicans are TERRIFIED of Trump, and they will enable him as long as he's breathing.

I don't quite understand the incentives behind this behavior; some of it might just be a contrarian impulse to disagree with the perceived faculty orthodoxy on Trump and SCOTUS. Who knows. But I think it's best to ignore this discourse-policing because it is, at best, spineless and distracting.

This faction tends to be anti-anti-SCOTUS too: They might not defend the Supreme Court's bad decisions on the merits, but they'll nitpick progressive professors who criticize those decisions. The real threat to the court's legitimacy, they imply, comes from these critics—not the justices themselves.

There's a rising faction of the legal academy that stays quiet when their MAGAdemic colleagues produce fraudulent psuedo-scholarship in service to the cruelest aspects of Trump's agenda ... then leap in to police the discourse when their progressive colleagues criticize those MAGAdemics too bluntly.

Happens with college professors too. Liberal ones practically apologized to conservative college students for having to state facts.
I feel like the right gets a lot more representation from their reps than liberals do. Democratic politicians always want to apologize for being liberal, and Republicans don't mind being raging assholes and don't apologize for it.

And if you posted pictures of your kids to Twitter, you LICENSED Grok to do that. Take those pics down NOW

Parents, if you didn't have a problem until now of not posting pics of your kids on public social media, now might be a good time to start (and maybe scrub what's there already).

just for fun, I looked at the supposed "open source" system prompt for Grok (which seems like it hasn't been updated for two months) and WOOF
"'teenage' or 'girl' does not necessarily imply underage"
and

The idea that we were merely executing a warrant - and in order to do so we had to massacre dozen of people who weren’t involved - is so ludicrously obscene.

Everyone, in and out of America keeps hoping/assuming that surely, eventually, something or someone will stop Trump. Some constitutional guardrail. Some court ruling. Some level of corruption, scandal or abuse too big to be ignored. We wait, and wait in vain. Better to act for ourselves.
I think the world is in disbelief at the shock and awe speed at which the US is unravelling, the reality of what they have become seems to be too much too quick for leaders to digest and act on. Europe / The west need to discuss the unthinkable of how do we uncouple and protect ourselves from the US
