Great to be in the Nashville crowd exercising our First Amendment rights yesterday at the No Kings protest. About 10,000 people peacefully assembled on the hillside behind the Capitol. Nationwide, more than 7 million attended No Kings demonstrations. People are fed up.

Today in history, 1878: Emma Nutt becomes the first female telephone operator, an occupation that would soon be dominated by women. Alexander Graham Bell hired Nutt to work for the Boston Telephone Dispatch Co., where she spent her entire 35-year career. /1

not just that he has no constitutional authority, there isn't even any particular legal or institutional mechanism by which the president can make anyone treat this as anything other than a weird advisory opinion.
This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.

I haven't seen it emphasized enough, but it's important to take a step back from Trump's ongoing seizure of autocratic power to see it's all emergency politics. All of it.
The Constitution is being suspended bit by bit the same way autocrats have always eliminated them: declaring fake emergencies.

It isn't until the 26th paragraph that there is mention that what Trump is doing is being challenged as illegal. And it accepts Trump's stated rationale to act.
Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections.

Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"
