RIP Dick Cheney, you would have loved to see the Senate refuse to vote on constraining presidential authority to wage war against fishing boats he doesn't like
The Senate has defeated an effort by Democrats to force a war powers vote on the U.S. military buildup re: Venezuela. Sen. Rand Paul R-KY & Sen. Lisa Murkowski R-AK were the only two GOP Senators to break ranks.

No it’s important to listen to this. Because then you understand that many of them will do ANYTHING to keep power. Remember Musk got involved in the 2024 election after saying to Tucker “if she wins” I am definitely going to prison.
So we need to move knowing that nothing is off the table for them.

With our mayor getting reelected, and showing he thinks MPD working with ICE is just fine, I’m concerned for the safety and livelihood of many of our Latine small business owners and their families. Please consider visiting these locations around the metro!

I know the notion of the Hatch Act is very quaint right now.
But Democrats need to come out swinging as soon as they have even one branch of Congress - or in 2028 have the W.H.
This is a gross violation & a partisan attack.

I’m at a loss for words, and it’s not because I’m surprised; rather, I’m in near despair at the sheer level of coarseness and vulgarity to which large swathes of our polity have sunk. There is an entire portion of our population with absolutely no urge to decency, and it’s heartbreaking.
POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
