Art. I of the Constitution gives Congress the power to make rules and regulations for the armed forces — including codes of discipline and strictures against following illegal orders. You can’t punish members of Congress for articulating those rules. Also protected by Speech and Debate Clause.

My flight is delayed by ~at least~ an hour because of air traffic congestion. But that’s my fault for not wearing a suit, at least according to Sean Duffy.

Last week, the Labor Department called off releasing its monthly jobs report for October, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics scrapped its own inflation report.

Karoline Leavitt says it's Dems' fault and “may have permanently damaged the federal statistical system.”

Tom Friedman’s piece in the NYT today again brings up the specter of Neville Chamberlain in ‘39. I disagree.

A better analogy is saying to Hitler: “keep the Sudetenland, don’t worry about the Holocaust, & we’ll give you a few years to rearm to attack into Belgium again. Let’s sign that!”

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

If Pete Kegsbreath follows through with his threat to court martial hero astronaut, former naval officer, and current U.S. Senator, he will further tarnish and diminish the Pentagon, and ensure a LANDSLIDE midterm victory for Democrats.

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said.

Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

There's a right wing propagandist on Xitter saying she expects Andrew Bailey to be promoted into DOJ shortly.

I would not be surprised if Trump fired Bondi over this, it was totally incompetent.
Understand that the Halligan thing is 100% Pam Bondi's fuck-up. She could have appointed Halligan Special Attorney and this thing would still be alive.

So it's not just that HALLIGAN is an incompetent bigot.

It's that Bondi is too.

Casual Friday changed things.

Traveling can be really tough. Who wants to worry about their f’ing attire.

This is RIDICULOUS.

So what?!?!?!?

GMAFB.
George was right, and the trend of men dressing like little boys with baseball caps and shorts year round was part of our overall cultural decline.
I remember when George Will wrote a whole op ed on how distasteful wearing blue jeans was.

Sen. Mark Kelly delivered a warning every American should hear: a president who calls for lawmakers to be hanged for speaking truth is stochastic terrorism. He’s trying to rule by fear.

Our democracy survives only when its leaders answer to the Constitution, not to one moron’s fury.
