Didn’t we do this in term 1?

They don’t have to comply. Bc to face a consequence the DOJ would have to prosecute for non-compliance. And in term 2 it’s not even the faintest remotest possibility.

Also. As we’ve seen the WH staff can just go and stonewall and lie and GOP will pay them on the head.
Hoo boy

Whole buncha folks about to have to face a choice between complying with a Congressional subpoena and getting fired because pete's mad at them

Fascism apologist here says it was okay for Argentina to start a war to colonize the Falklands because there weren’t many people there and their rights don’t count.

Sounds like Putin with Ukraine and Hitler with Poland.
In this context with a population wich barely surpasses 3000 people, I don't see major problems.
I side with self determination when it's essential to prevent crimes against certain populations or when it's necesary to figth against discrimination against certain groups of people.

Of course he’s going to get a pardon, but if we still have free elections and the Democrats win, they can’t just let people forget this evil like after 2001.

Experts say it’s highly unusual for the White House to tell agents to give up custody of potential evidence in an investigation, as it did with the Tates.

“I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” an ex-DHS official said.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

I love this idea. My dad died when I was three and I had to figure out simple things like how to tie a tie and even shave on my own. Please retweet this because I know there are a lot of kids out there who could use some help with day to day life.

Well, you could stop naming companies after Tolkien characters, a practice widely associated with fascists who don’t understand Tolkien?

And stop pushing LLM technology on us until you find an actual use-case for it?
I’m not sure what this platform can do to make it more enjoyable, but I’m definitely not enjoying whatever pile-on is taking place right now in my notifications and I’m also not really sure how I could make it stop.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.
