Moderate, in a country where “don’t pick on people who aren’t hurting you” has somehow become radical. 8th grade math dropout, in a country where 6th grade math dropouts are somehow running economic policy.

Why is this concerning? A circular firing squad on the GOP side, marshaling familiar conspiracy theories about stolen elections, but this time their own? Let’s not bemoan this, but celebrate it.

If Lindell is convinced that there was cheating involved in his Republican vs. Republican race, by all means, let's ferret out the Republican responsible for the fraud.

And the answer is easy enough, I think. We're going to make a society that takes care of people. We aren't going to allow anymore this society that caters to a shrinking number of billionaires and bosses. Call it what you want. Feel however you want about it. We're doing it.

One thing you have to keep in mind, instead of Anthony Fauci, Senate Republicans could be doing this to, say, Ghislaine Maxwell.

We can argue during the primaries and argue after the midterms, but in the few months between, our job is to unify against the fascists.

We truly need more everyday civic heroes. Not because heroes are who will get us out of this but because they can change public perception of what is possible and inspire more people to act You CAN just tell a federal prosecutor in front of other grand jurors that their case is a crock of shit

I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

It’s because of the recognition of tribal sovereignty. But as pointed out in oral… the 14th is the floor. Congress can still add citizenship paths… they just not exclude per 14th. Tribal members have been granted full citizenship by Congress. This affirmation strengthens tribal sovereignty.

"Declaring that no quarter will be given" is specifically prohibited by Art 23 of the Annex to the Hague Convention IV, which means it is a war crime under US domestic law by virtue of the War Crimes Act (18 U.S. Code § 2441).

✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here. Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning: Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime. And recognized as such by the US Government. From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.
(1) The accused declared, ordered, or otherwise indicated that there shall be no survivors
or surrender accepted;
(2) The accused thereby intended to threaten an adversary or to conduct hostilities such
that there would be no survivors or surrender accepted;
(3) It was foreseeable that circumstances would be such that a practicable and reasonable
ability to accept surrender would exist;
(4) The accused was in a position of effective command or control over the subordinate
forces to which the declaration or order was directed; and
(5) The conduct took place in the context of and was associated with hostilities.
