What coherent and intelligent commentary can you even have on national security or military affairs anymore? Everything is just fucking stupid now. What are you even supposed to say besides just repeating over and over how fucking dumb every single decision is?

Good afternoon from New York. NYC Mayor Eric Adams is in court — and so is Trump's defense attorney turned Acting Deputy AG Emil Bove — in order to try to persuade a federal judge to dismiss the corruption case. Bove appears to be alone at the table.

So, is the administration really this dumb or is this just the cover story to let the get rid of things big business doesn't like?

Government’s wins are often invisible: Systems that avoid plane crashes; alliances that avert war; surveillance that prevent pandemics. Government wins are often the avoidance of loss. So how do we tell the story of the destruction of government? The story of future losses not averted?

At least someone appointed by Trump has ethics! Of course, that disqualified them from continued service in this administration.

Its 2027. A group of ragged children is skipping rope. Dirty and ill-fed, they chant “one, two, three, four, five, how do you think that you might die? Measles, polio, Covid, flu. TB, strep throat, malaria, too”

Again, the problem ain't the guardrails, it's the people manning them. A Congress that has completely and utterly abdicated its role and has no interest in defending its own power is the thing they couldn't envision

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

Knowing the real stories of our history — the good, the brave, the times we wandered off the path — makes our commitment to our principles & values stronger, not weaker We stumble. We remember. We learn, sometimes slowly. We learn that America was built by a bigger group than we ever imagined /1

With one hand Trump is taking away protections from former officials who have faced death threats, like Dr. Fauci; with the other he's signaling political violence is okay — pardoning Jan 6 rioters who bludgeoned police officers. This is not a game. It is very dangerous.

Corrected- So, now that children born to persons not legally in the country are not citizens, how do we prove citizenship? Birth certificates don't show the immigration status of your parents.

Listen, I’m pretty new as a constitutional law scholar and there’s a lot I don’t know. Still, I’m pretty confident in saying that it’s not unconstitutional if it’s in the (goddamn) Constitution

At this point it’s abundantly clear that it was never really "But, her emails” it was "But, they’re females.”
