Living a blue life under blue skies. Though I love facts and learning about the worlds of science, nature and the arts, I meditate to see the big picture as well.

As a veteran who served in intelligence, I want to introduce you to EXORDS: the execute order from the President to SecDef. This allows 60 days operations under the War Powers Act. The President must advise Congress and gain approval to continue.
No EXORD was sent to Congress. This is illegal

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Rep Pramila Jayapal: "Remember the militarized raid on a Chicago apartment building in the middle of the night where agents rappelled from helicopters and zip-tied sobbing children? It has resulted in ZERO criminal charges two months later.
The cruelty, chaos, and fear are the point."

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.
Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.

1/ Collective punishment of tens of thousands of vetted Afghan partners won’t prevent radicalization. But it will guarantee fewer allies, more enemies, and higher risks for U.S. troops the next time we deploy.

The alleged shooting by an Afghan ‘partner’ shouldn’t condemn all who assisted the U.S. and now live here.

In case you thought you were safe bc you aren't one of his currently identified enemies to kidnap and deport, take a look at this line:
"and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country..."
No one is safe when a bully is in charge.

Something about the shooting yesterday doesn't feel right.
It feels too convenient. A vetted Afgan national that was granted asylum, randomly shoots a National Guardsman near the WH for no reason right when the NG was set to leave DC because there was no violence.
Now the NG is not leaving DC.

Cognetti: We don’t want Joe Rogan or OAN talking about this district because we have a congressman who has become one of the most prolific stock traders—someone who dumped six figures’ worth of Medicaid provider stock a week before he trashed a trillion dollars of Medicaid.
