"We will retroactively annul all pardons that the president made for people who acted criminally in order to benefit the president by act of Congress, and if necessary, expand the Supreme Court until the justices agree that we can do this."
It’s not at the top of my list, but we need to reform the pardon power.
"But the true message—the prospective message—is that pardons will be available to everyone who joins him in election subversion in 2026 and 2028. This wave of preemptive pardons is a permission slip, an encouragement for election subversion in the future."

In recent weeks, Bari Weiss has been complaining that CBS News' Standards and Practices unit has "too much power," stoking fears in the newsroom that she's going to try to disband the team.

Bari Weiss, not a journalist, is running one of the most storied news orgs away from the exploration of truth and into the arms of right wing grievance. It is her brand, and now CBS News's brand.
She's a right-wing content marketer who doesn't require standards bc she's creating ads for GOP.

I'm for removing lifetime healthcare for elected feds, honestly.
Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

We’ve now taken the lead by 91 votes! 🤯 This thing is certainly not over! Over 1,000 ballots have been challenged, so if you haven’t tracked your ballot yet get on it! Our trusty volunteers have been working hard to "cure" ballots so they count! We're so close!

Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.
The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.
so currently defectors are:
Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)
