Republicans in the House and the Senate keep complaining about the Trump administration’s priorities. They seem to have forgotten that they have the power to do something, @dgraham.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily.

A Congress That Votes Yes and Hopes No
Congressional Republicans keep wringing their hands over the White House’s legislative priorities … and then voting for them.

Thou shalt not call yourself “the law and order party” when your leader is a convicted felon who constantly pardons criminals in exchange for millions of dollars in bribes.

Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

Hey you know how people made the Tesla brand radioactively toxic and crashed its entire corporate structure? You can do that with authoritarian brutality and with neoliberal oppression and exploitation. You chase these motherfuckers from society until all that’s left is something real and better.

At this point, I think we would have been better off with an economic policy chosen at random than this. At least then there would be the potential for a positive outcome every now and again.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

Maybe if the U.S. had universal healthcare, we wouldn’t all be stuck footing the bill for Trump’s mental health crisis by way of tariffs.

If you were a halfway decent human being and you knew an innocent man was rotting in foreign prison—likely suffering nightmarish conditions—because your administration screwed up and send him there, you’d do something about it immediately instead of shitposting lies all day.

I am so proud to witness this history-making moment as @booker.senate.gov crosses the 24-hour threshold in the name of Americans from both sides of the aisle. Thank you, Senator, for being the voice of so many. Thank you for standing up for the people.

Either Tulsi Gabbard just lied under oath or the U.S. Director of National Intelligence doesn’t know what constitutes as “classified information.” Both options are troublingly believable for this joke of an administration.

An incompetent and uniformed Trump responds to the Signal group chat incident: "I don't know anything about it. I'm not a big fan of The Atlantic. It's a magazine that's going out of business. But I know nothing about it. You're saying that they had what?"

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there. The show must go on.

TLDR: The Budapest Memorandum As a result of this agreement, Ukraine exchanged its nuclear weapons for sovereignty, which Russia breached in 2014. In response, the US, UK, and France pledged security assurances. Of the three involved in the current peace talks, only Ukraine has kept its word.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

For a group so ardently opposed to “socialist” programs, MAGA seems all too keen to let the rest of us subsidize their education on basic economics. Welcome to Tariffs 101, y’all! Enjoy.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are
