Whenever you hear someone invoke the unitary executive, remember the image below.
This was an inevitable result of the unitary executive theory:
Empowering a president to tyrannically destroy institutions that ensured our government reflects the rule of law rather than his personal whim.

Speaker Johnson must stop blocking the results of a free and fair election. We’re demanding he do his job and swear in Adelita Grijalva immediately.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

Once again: no one told me when I was in grad school that becoming a historian of 20th century Europe would mean I would need to convince people that Nazis were (and are) bad.
I really thought that was a given.

At the Ren Faire today, we watched a blacksmith give a 30-minute demonstration about swords. And at the end he said, “My lecture is now over, here are some kittens to pet.”

MAGA is very triggered. 22 MAGA arrests for attacking No Kings in OH, KY, CA, SC, NC, MI, OR, FL, VA, TX, and PA. Meanwhile, police report arrests of ZERO protesters. Incredible job, everyone – you made it impossible for Trump to sell his propaganda. 💪

70 years ago, on the 20th of October 1955, the final volume of the Lord Of the Rings was published. It was titled ‘The Return of the King’ by publisher Rayner Unwin. Author J.R.R. Tolkien felt the title revealed too much of the story and preferred the title ‘The War of the Ring’. #otd #history 🗃️

ANY ARRESTS? Among the millions upon millions of "violent leftist radicals" that took to the streets today I cannot find word of a single arrest. Even when everything is peaceful there is usually an overzealous cop or something. This is unheard of. We need to beat the media over the head with it.
