The Constitution unambiguously gives only Congress the power to declare war. Our elected leaders in Congress must reassert their role as the people's representatives and take action now before more lives are lost.

Donald Trump will use today’s State of the Union as a platform to gaslight the American people and justify his abuse of power. I refuse to legitimatize it. Join me at the People’s State of the Union. The power of the people is stronger than the weapons they would yield against us.

-Bovino will leave MN and may lose his job -Noem will face a Senate hearing and possible impeachment -Senate Dems will oppose unconditional extension of DHS funding The pushback is working. We must keep standing up and speaking out against Trump's regime.

Chuck Schumer and the Democratic establishment, fascist collaborators. 👍 Republicans are actual evil, but this will never improve until people stop acting surprised every time they do this and start recognizing that Democrats aren't your friends.

"The thing about the murder of Charlie Kirk is that, in the places that are deemed to matter, he is considered a human being, and to varying degrees, the humanity of most of the rest of us is situational and subject to debate by people like Charlie Kirk."

The political assassination of the Speaker of the Minnesota House was a terrible harbinger for our democracy. The profound silence from Republicans afterwards was worse. The political assassination of Charlie Kirk is a terrible harbinger for our democracy. Again, the response is antidemocratic.

One bright spot for trans people in Montana: Today's SCOTUS decision does not touch Montana. That's because Montana overturned its gender affirming care ban through the state Supreme Court. States are allowed to have protections that go beyond the US constitution, and thus that ruling is unaffected.

Dear god let this man cook.
Pritzker: It’s time for us to be done with optimism about their motives. Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research… Autistic kids and adults who are loving contributors to our society don’t deserve to be stigmatized by a weird nepo baby who once stashed a dead bear in his car. Our military service members don’t deserve to be told by a washed-up Fox TV commentator, who drank too much before being appointed Secretary of Defense, that they can’t serve their country simply because they are Black, gay, or a woman.

In Trump's first 100 days, he alienated us from our allies, crashed the stock market, decimated U.S. cancer research, expelled American toddlers, lost the Canadian election by proxy, and threatened your Social Security checks. But at least he focused on the important stuff.

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM
“That they should be the ones to welcome Pope Francis’s coffin in the basilica is because these people are those who represented the focus of his mission,” said Father Giulio Albanese, head of missionary cooperation and communications for the Vicariate of Rome. “They are those who live on the peripheries, geographical and existential peripheries.”
