My insistence that the President get congressional authorization for military force isn’t really about weakening the executive. I think what really weakens the executive is going out on a limb & committing US forces without having the debate necessary to get Congress & the public firmly on board.

For Bach fans (or any music lovers), check out Stephen Malinowski's amazing visualizations of Bach's music. For those who find Bach's music too complex to grasp, the visual analogs enable the listener to "see" the logic of the musical sounds. Delightful to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyOk...

Charlie Sykes: “On a massive scale, the rallies refuted the MAGA fear-mongering about “Hate America” riots, exposing (once again) Mike Johnson, Karline Leavitt, and Ted Cruz as the retromingent assholes they are.”

At the Tucker, GA #NoKings rally. Looks like even more people are showing up this time. I estimate well over a thousand and this is just a suburb of Atlanta and half an hour before the march starts and scores still pouring in from every direction.

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

There has never been a more incompetent, unqualified, corrupt President and administration. We all know Stephen Miller, an angry, hateful, vengeful man, is running the show. Trump’s too damn dumb. They work for Putin…the destruction of our country, Republic and democracy. 😡
