In general, the following is true:
The following two conditions are sufficient to remove your online anonymity completely: (1) you have pissed off someone with sufficient resources; and (2) you have made one mistake ever.

to faithfully execute the laws we must be able to violate the laws headassery
it is actually kind of bananas how unitary executive theorists have taken a straightforward clause requiring the president to "faithfully execute the laws" and transformed it into a grant for the exercise of limitless unenumerated power.
The Take Care Clause was a byproduct of the lessons learned from the Glorious Revolution that the executive should not be able to dispense with the law promulgated by the legislature. It was not a constitutional provision to empower the executive branch— but to constrain it!

It’s quite disturbing that the debate is almost completely about the legality of the second strike, whereas it seems quite clear that the first strike was illegal too.

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.

We're not required to defend CAFE standards. They really are bad and a big part of the reason every car is massive nowadays. Well-meaning regulations can sometimes have unintended consequences.

1. This is not how anyone talks to an O-10.

2. This is certainly not how a 40 year-old ex-O-4 talks to an O-10.

3. This is the most dumbshit company grade officer crap imaginable. No competent commander tells a senior officer not to ask questions.

4. He may as well have called Holsey "boy."

The USG has a new explanation on why they (now admittedly) intentionally killed 2 shipwrecked men. It does not pass the laws-of-war smell test

Worse for Hegseth, NYT: "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth approved contingency plans for what to do if an initial strike left survivors."
