Putting aside Lindsey Graham’s eagerness to undermine his own institution, after Nixon vetoed the War Powers Act in 1973, Congress overrode him.
House vote: 284-135
Senate vote: 75-18
In both instances, the majorities were bipartisan. (Many liberal Dems balked and said it didn’t go far enough.)

The sign on Kristi Noem's podium reads "One of ours, all of yours." The reader will recall that this was a fascist rallying cry in the Spanish Civil War. What it means is that one of "our" people is worth all of "your" people.

That order, revealed in court late Saturday, forces lawmakers to seek a week's advance notice before conducting oversight visits to ICE facilities.

Note that the sudden rise in "nudification" is not an advance in the tech itself, it's a design choice by Musk / xAI.
LMMs trained with nude images have been able to do this for years; Grok is the first time a major company has chosen to enhance this functionality for users rather than restrict it.

The “put her in a bikini” trend began quietly at the end of last year before exploding at the start of 2026. Within days, hundreds of thousands of requests were being made to the Grok chatbot, asking it to strip the clothes from photographs of women.

The US already has a military base in Greenland. Under a treaty with Denmark that was signed in 1951, it has the right to build even more bases there.
That is why the argument of security for the US is nonsensical. The mafia boss Trump is interested in the minerals he can mine!
