Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.
