@wyden.senate.gov The Presidential pardon power needs to be eliminated. If Trump can auction pardons to the highest bidder, what's to keep future presidents from doing the same? I assume it will require a new amendment?

Is it possible to strip the pardon power from the President? If we need a Constitutional amendment, then let's get started.
Trump just commuted the 7-year sentence of David Gentile, a private equity leader who helped defraud thousands of people out of some $1.6 billion, almost as soon as his prison stint began.

"I lost my whole life savings," one person wrote, adding, "I am living from check to check."

Is the United States about to shoot down commercial jets flying over South America?

This, unfortunately, is now a serious question.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter whether the US has officially declared war or not. A military killing civilians is still a war crime.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

Voyager 1 Is About to Reach One Light-day from Earth

After nearly 50 years in space, NASA’s Voyager 1 is about to hit a historic milestone. By November 15, 2026, it will be 16.1 billion miles (25.9 billion km) away, meaning a radio signal will take a full 24 hours, a full light-day to reach it.

So the executive branch suffers more irreparable harm by having to *follow* the law than do the people being tortured and injured by their illegal actions?

Makes about as much sense as any other Roberts court decision, most of which find tortured ways to allow Republican presidents carte blanche.

It's a testament to the widespread incompetence of the Trump administration that the Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, is preoccupied with what passengers wear on planes rather than how many air traffic controllers there are to keep them safe, even if not in bespoke suits.

ICE arrested outstanding journalist @davedeckerphoto.bsky.social while he was on assignment covering protests at the facility in Miami. Throw him some money please because as a freelancer he doesn't have the legal support backing a full-timer would and we need to continue fighting for a free press.
