So............ I have to teach about the U.S. Constitution today to an introductory level class.

How on earth am I supposed to pretend everything is just working normally?

Answer: I'm not going to pretend. I'm telling it like it is.

Just gonna slide this information in here. The Eagles refused to go to the White House after their Super Bowl victory in 2018. Do with that what you will.

Senator Schiff (as Dems filibuster the nomination of Project 2025 author Russ Vought): “The moment you say it’s ok to violate the law to shut down USAID you have said it is ok to violate the law and shut down anything.”

SCHIFF: “Why is this firing of FBI agents such an important piece of this effort by Trump, Musk & their enablers? Because if they're going to raid the treasury, take people's private data, illegally shut down agencies... They don't want an FBI to examine anything they're doing.”

They sold almost *NINE THOUSAND* bottles of Captain Tom branded gin? I'm in the wrong game, man: www.gov.uk/government/p...
Limited edition gin and the agreement with Otterbeck Distillery: In May 2022, prior to the opening of the inquiry the Commission became aware that a ‘Captain Tom limited edition barrel aged gin’ by Otterbeck Distillery (‘the Distillery’) was being advertised on the Distillery’s website for £100 a bottle with ‘all profits’ of the sale going to the charity. In addition to the limited edition gin, a regular ‘Captain Tom Gin’ for £35.95 a bottle was also available. As stated in the Code of Fundraising Practice (‘the Code’) and required by section 60 of the Charities Act 1992, charities must have a written agreement in place with any commercial participator they work with to fundraise. A commercial participator is a company that, as a regular part of its everyday business, engages in a promotional venture a charity will benefit from. Any statement which implies that money will be paid to a charity from the sale of a product must also specify the exact amount of money that will be donated (this is called a solicitation statement). Trustees must make sure any fundraising activity their charity undertakes complies with the law. Following engagement with the trustees during the earlier regulatory compliance case on the issue, on 20 May 2022 they confirmed that there was no written agreement in place detailing the arrangement between the charity and the Distillery for the limited edition gin. However, the inquiry did find that a written agreement was in place for the regular gin and that as per the agreement, the charity received a £1 donation per bottle sold which raised £8,960 for the charity.
