It’s apparent these ACIP members have never attended a previous ACIP meeting as the format and breadth of data presented by the CDC is exactly the same as provided at every single meeting I’ve watched since 2020.

In the rise of authoritarianism, it's easy to look at the problem as one of executive aggrandizement: presidents have become too powerful, so it's time to cut down the power of the office. But, the real central issue is the collapse of Congress as a functional legislative body. Fixing it is key.

The DOJ just charged a Russian national with moving hundreds of millions through the system—mostly using a foreign stablecoin called Tether. The GENIUS Act includes a massive loophole that allows Tether to evade basic safeguards. It must not move forward without real fixes.

Instead of going after violent criminals, he deported a 4-year-old cancer patient, detained a U.S. Marshal, and spent $134M on a political stunt. Californians aren’t buying it.

Worth noting: ICE is conducting these prominent mass detention operations in urban settings in states like California and Illinois and apparently leaving the low-hanging fruit of major agricultural centers in places like Texas and South Dakota (home of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem) largely untouched.

very fun to read frederick douglass accurately describe the problem with the pardon power in 1867

A bad President, for
instance, has the power to do what? What can he not do? If he wanted to
revolutionize this government, he could easily do it with this ponderous
power; it would be an auxiliary power. He could cry “havoc, and let slip the
dogs of war,”29 and say to the conspirators: “I am with you. If you
succeed, all is well. If you fail, I will interpose the shield of my pardon, and
you are safe. If your property is taken away from you by Congress, I will
pardon and restore your property. Go on and revolutionize the government;
I will stand by you.” The bad man will say or might say this. I am not sure
but we have got a man now who comes very near saying it. Let us have done
with this pardoning power. We have had enough of this. Pardoning! How
inexpressibly base have been the uses made by this power—this beneficent
power. It has been that with which a treacherous President has trafficked.
He has made it the means of securing adherents to himself instead of
securing allegiance to the government.
