If you were intentionally trying to destroy American military capability, what would you do differently?
Hegseth to US military: if you get into MIT, we won't let you attend because of the risk that you will be exposed to ideas hostile to MAGA when you study there.

I absolutely give Dems credit when I think they deserve credit! Just the other day, Rep. Jayapal and Sen. Markey introduced a trans bill of rights. It won't go anywhere, but it's nice hearing elected officials openly state their support in a real way.

The Ellison-Hawley clash was entertaining and appalling, but what's the truth?
They accused each other of lying, and my prior is to assume Hawley was dishonest as usual, but what's Ellison's counter to the Post reporting?
Media I've found reports on the fight, but don't explain who lied.

“The Constitution does not permit the government to arrest thousands of individuals and then disregard their constitutional rights because it would be too challenging to honor those rights.”
BREAKING: Judge Nancy Brasel, a Trump appointee, has issued a TRO in the Minnesota access-to-counsel case about treatment at Whipple.
"It appears that in planning for Operation Metro Surge, the government failed to plan for the constitutional rights of its civil detainees."

If the government can take away your voting rights for a felony conviction, and they also decide what constitutes a felony, and they also decide who’s charged with the felony, and they also decide who’s prosecuted for the felony, you don’t have a right to vote.
Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger endorsed a constitutional amendment to automatically restore voting rights to people with felony convictions when they leave prison. State lawmakers passed the amendment and it will now appear on the state ballot.

Too often when discussing trans rights, we’re forced to be on the defensive, as Republicans wage attacks.
Today, we take the opportunity to look forward by introducing my Trans Bill of Rights, a comprehensive vision to provide protections for all trans and nonbinary people.

The Framers of our Constitution were very clear about emoluments: NONE. Note how all those right-wing "originalists," claiming to value the original meaning of the document, don't try to enforce the emoluments clause at all. The plain meaning of the words are crystal clear.

VA Gov. Spanberger (moderate, was in CIA) and NYC Mayor Mamdani (left, is in DSA) both taking steps to block local law enforcement from helping ICE as it violently violates people's rights is a good example of how the relevant divide in the Dem coalition isn't center-left, it's fight-don't fight.

Just a reminder that Los Alamos was a cover. The real Manhattan Project was just a bunch of Minnesotans in a room with a single pastry, consigned to continually cutting it in half over and over until cutting it in half meant figuring out how to split the atom.

It would be amazing if we had prominent Democrats in America - taking the same stance.
