(WaPo: free) And you might have thought that the no-bid contract to an unqualified contractor for the reflecting pool was a one-off (I DID), IT WAS NOT. TRUMP went back to the SAME contractor, no-bid, who FAILED LAST YEAR. Happy reading... wapo.st/4f7yI6l

Before Reflecting Pool, algae contractor had troubled project on a trash-infested river
Greenwater Services, owned by a Trump donor, has received two no-bid contracts from the government since the president returned to office.

Hey Chicago! An ICE contractor is trying to buy our parking meters — and City Council decides whether that happens THIS WEEK. We've got time to stop this, but we need as many people as possible to fight back: tinyurl.com/icepark

A president admits that doctors are concerned with his mental capacity enough to test his cognitive abilities at least 3 times. This is exactly why we have a 25th Amendment, FFS. The same people who were ‘concerned’ about Joe Biden are awfully quiet about Trump. Looking at you Jake Tapper.

The White House put out a series of hype videos about the war. Some have been defending it by saying military members themselves share these kinds of videos. This is true. But they aren’t the White House. The WH is a bunch of children, and have no sobriety about the serious business of war.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Wars can only be declared by Congress. Taxes can only be levied by Congress. Spending can only be appropriated by Congress. Laws can only be passed by Congress. Any President who refuses to work with Congress is an enemy of the Constitution and the rule of law.

Here we are watching military action unfold without a clear congressional vote. If we are risking American lives and destabilizing an entire region, the American people deserve more than unilateral executive action. The founders separated powers for a reason!
