The bill last numbered H.R. 9495 would empower the Treasury Secretary to designate any nonprofit the Secretary wishes to kill a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke the tax-exempt status on which it depends for survival. Unconstitutional but lethal in the harm it would do while in force.

What's the point of being FBI director if you can't reveal super secrets on your podcast, using your Gulfstream to hop about and deploy mass numbers of agents as your own personal Pretorian Guard? It's not a new understanding of power, it's a very old and corrupt one.

Rounds: Senator Shaheen mentioned that Secretary Rubio did make a phone call to us this afternoon. I think he made it very clear that we are the recipients of a proposal that was delivered to one of our representatives. It is not our recommendation. It is not our peace plan.

On Vance distancing himself yesterday from Trump's happy talk about the economy. Vance is in touch with reality. He can be briefed on data and listens to business types. If he's talking down expectations, he probably has pretty good reason to think the economy's getting worse.
