Article I, Section 8: Congress declares war.

Trump bypassed Congress and said the answer would’ve been different if he had asked them. That is a confession that he chose power over the law.

Regime change in Venezuela has partially failed as top officials from the Maduro regime remain in power, including all governors and military nationwide. Venezuela is currently in a state of war, preparing for the probability of a 2nd round of US attacks. #venezuelainvasion

It appears the idea is to pursue the Maduro capture as a law enforcement issue to sidestep the illegal act of war. But 5000 of our best lawyers have been purged from the DOJ. What’s left? Unqualified flunkies whose flawed indictments have been quashed by judges. What happens if the indictment fails?

I am mostly reserving judgement on Venezuela while things develop. But my initial thoughts.

1) Maduro’s rendition probably doesn’t advance any U.S. foreign policy objectives, per se.
2) It invites significant reputational damage.
3) The WH doesn’t appear to have planned beyond this point.

So wait, does this in fact mean that another country could see Trump as a threat, could kidnap him, and whisk him away to be held accountable in another land? Any takers???

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

Good morning.

You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

Wow, what a tepid response. No surprise of course. No MSM will call out the #NaziKing. This is literally Russia on steroids. Hope the nearly 90M assholes who enthusiastically voted for all this shit are happy. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Gift link. The editorial board at the NYT. Kind of a soft headline, if you ask me, but at least they got Illegal in there.

It is such 12 year old thinking to not understand Government is not business, they’re supposed to serve all (generally) unlike business that can choose customers. Nonprofits are not businesses in that the point isn’t profit.

Gender nonconforming gay guy uses the men's bathroom and it's confronted and threatened.

It was never about the bathrooms, privacy, or safety, they simply don't want queer people to exist.
