When you buy beer, does the beer store have a roll of approved beer buyers who have already registered for the privilege?
Do you have to submit some sort of documentation proving you are the person on the beer roll?
Do you have to sign the roll swearing you are on it under criminal penalty? 1/
It boggles my mind that I pay a significant portion of my income in taxes so that Pete Hegseth (formerly host of “Fox & Friends Weekend”) and Donald Trump (formerly of “The Apprentice” and “Home Alone 2”) can fund and command the most powerful military in the world!
“War-a-Lago”

At the risk of repeating myself, they don't actually care about Americans any more than Iranians, they don't think of us as people they have an obligation to. We're just chaff to be ground up as they scheme to get richer and seize power and kill their enemies. Like peasants to tsars.
New Iran War justification. Drink!
I’m afraid his reputation as a scholarly man of letters may take a hit after that video.
The whole incident is a perfect metaphor for Trumpism: performative violence with zero strategic objective. Sheehy didn’t even succeed in removing the guy.
I think Trump wanted Crockett to win, in which case he would have endorsed Paxton because (1) Paxton is more MAGA and (2) he views Crockett as a weaker candidate whom Paxton could have beaten (who knows if he’s right). But with Talarico, he will endorse Cornyn as the safer pick.
Last week Trump again told Congress and the country that his strikes on Iran last year "obliterated" Iran's nuclear weapons program.
Today he says they were two weeks away from a bomb, something his Administration has not supported with intelligence.
More lies about the war.
Cornyn isn’t going to drop out just because Trump tells him to. He’s an incumbent with his own non-Trump base of support. Cornyn will get a truckload of money from businesses as well. Cornyn is the only endorsement that might result in one of the contenders dropping out.
I’ve litigated redistricting issues, and here is the reality: you cannot gain breadth of districts without sacrificing depth in districts. You weaken the safety of your strong districts to get more districts. There are only so many voters to divvy up. Texas is vulnerable to a wave year.
The “dumbass” position that Graham is lampooning—the requirement that preemptive force respond only to imminent threats—is what international law demands.
Following international law is not “dumbass.” The alternative is costly forever wars so that force does the work that the law used to do.
Objection, non-responsive.
Raskin is HEATED at Noem
In the history of war and foreign relations, there are few things that were more avoidable than American boots on the ground in Iran.
Righting injustices like these is why the Bible tells us:
“But let justice roll down like waters And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.”
Did the former Dem State Senator join a movement that fomented an insurrection? Polis should be impeached if he does this. Perhaps he should be impeached for even seriously considering it.
Shocking. The Supreme Court manufactured jurisdiction using out-and-out fabrications. It may come as no surprise that the result of this fabrication benefited a GOP Congresswoman from New York. Repeat: the Supreme Court had no jurisdiction to issue this order. But to whom can you appeal this error?
'UNIMAGINABLE CRUELTY': Judge Gary Brown, a Trump appointeee from NY, thrashes DHS' treatment of a man who came to the US at 9 as an abuse/neglect victim, has no criminal record and became a college grad.

It’s tempting to succumb to worry, but seeking joy is a quiet act of defiance in times like these.
Between the Ayatollah and the Administration, who has the greater capacity to harm the United States? Is either committed to sacrificing their own powers to preserve the US Constitution?
Federal agencies have broad discretion to cancel contracts, but bad faith cancellations are unlawful and the Pentagon likely needs the services of these contractors. www.winston.com/en/blogs-and...
Our civil society and democracy turns in large part on the morality of a handful of tech oligarchs. It’s crazy.
Impeach.
If you were ever to pursue a similar project for your family, I am sure there would be much laughter, many tears, and, of course, a significant role for your wife’s karate instructor.
