Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Remember 6 weeks ago when Admiral Alvin Holsey, head of the U.S. military’s southern command, abruptly decided to retire?

Ivan Sivak became a world champion in para-sports dance — not with just one gold medal, but 3! He won one title with para-athlete Olena Dankevych and the other 2 in Freestyle and Men’s Singles.
This marks the first time Ukraine has won gold in these categories!

Eleven days ago I randomly decided to watch a youtube video of a college production of The Real Inspector Hound and I was struck again by how, even though I mostly think of his "deeper" plays, Tom Stoppard could also pen some of the most perfect, weird farce ever written. RIP to one of the greats.

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

For context: Jack served as head of the Office of Legal Counsel during the Bush administration. He’s widely regarded—especially in conservative legal circles—as a leading authority on executive power. The fact that he’s expressing this view in such stark terms is significant.
