Dementia. We need to be saying this out loud. The military, Congress (such that it is) & the media MUST put this on the tracker now.

We have an incompetent person making life and death decisions & the reins need to be taken away from him. 👇

I have a feeling that this will be put into evidence in future war crimes trials.

Jon Meacham: 'The Constitution was written for moments like this' Pulitzer-prize winning historian Jon Meacham’s new book reminds us that safeguarding American democracy has always been a constant struggle. “The Constitution was written for moments like this,” says Meacham, moments he calls “a moral crisis.”

Between a new war of choice, federal agents killing protesters, & an administration eviscerating institutions, American democracy is being tested. Historian Jon Meacham reminds us that "the republic has always been fragile.” Americans have long known despair is not the answer, action is. #Velshi

‘Mass disenfranchisement’: The Slow, Methodical Attacks on Voting Ahead of Midterms In Dallas County on election night, mass confusion caused by a sudden rule change sent hundreds of voters to the wrong polling places. This is what modern voter suppression can look like: not always dramatic, but just confusing and discouraging enough to stop people from casting their ballot. Mother Jones’ Ari Berman weighs in “when you change laws and when you make voting more difficult right before an election, without giving people time to prepare, it can lead to the kind of mass disenfranchisement we saw in Dallas on Tuesday.”

Mass confusion unfolded at polling centers in Dallas County on primary night. That confusion was manufactured. It renewed fears of voter suppression ahead of the midterms. ProPublica's @dougbockclark.bsky.social warns "last minute changes to election laws can disenfranchise a lot of people." #Velshi

Scientists and the AAP beg to differ! Public health isn't an opportunity for Bobby's psychotic fan fic dreams.

The SSI system can end up trapping people in poverty.

We need the SSI Restoration Act to increase cash payments and fix rules that penalize Americans for getting married, for accepting help from a family member, or for saving more than just a few pennies. - @warren.senate.gov

Note, Trump is considering putting one of the two stupidest Senators in charge of DHS, Markwaybe Mullin.
