When David Brooks joined the conservative movement in the 1980s, there were two types of people: those who cared earnestly about ideas, and those who wanted only to shock the left. The reactionary fringe has won, Brooks writes.

The Constitution is clear that Donald Trump cannot run for a third term as president, Jonathan Chait writes. "But as Trump has repeatedly demonstrated, questions of the law and the Constitution ultimately reduce to power struggles."
Why Trump Says He’s ‘Not Joking’ About a Third Term
The prospect of smashing imagined limits on his power gives him an obvious thrill.

There’s a massive information purge happening at The Pentagon. Removing articles, images & information related to the Holocaust, 9/11, Sexual Abuse & Suicide Prevention have all been scrubbed.

This Administration isn’t fixing anything… They’re making it simply disappear, like it never happened.

So, that’s actually not allowed…The Constitution isn’t optional, sir. This isn’t a reality show — it’s reality. Two terms, that’s it.
Trump is 'not joking' about third term, though Constitution says he can't serve
In remarks to NBC News, Trump also said "there are methods which you could do it." Trump would need either a two-thirds vote in Congress or a constitutional convention to serve a third term.

Your tax dollars are paying for the richest man in the world to fly around when he has his own jets.
🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying.

WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

Seems to me that Mike Johnson should be the last politician in the country to slash Medicaid. His state has the second highest rate of Medicaid use, 32.4%, after NM. The federal government pays 68% of traditional Medicaid's costs, compared to 50% for NY and CA.

Republicans aren’t hiding anything. Their priorities are written in black and white: trillions of dollars in tax breaks to the rich, while making savage cuts to Medicaid, housing, nutrition and education. The reconciliation bill will make the rich even richer and the poor poorer.
