Is the United States in Need of A New Constitution? Has the Constitution, ratified in 1789, endured as intended by the Framers of the Constitution for these almost 250 years or is it too outdated and incapable of amendment to serve any longer as the bl...

Harvard Constitutional Law Professor Emeritus Laurence H. Tribe replies that rather than discard the Constitution, we should “cling to it as both sword and shield in this time of existential crisis for our republic.” @tribelaw.bsky.social

Ghislaine Maxwell: as she is doing time already, Congress shd immunize her which would force her to have to testify (she is currently objecting based on the 5th A). She can be prosecuted if she lies or refuses to testify. And it would make it that much more outlandish for Trump to later pardon her.

The Trump admin submitted a sworn declaration under oath that Costa Rica had changed its mind and would no longer take Mr. Abrego.

Costa Rica has now said publicly that that this is false, that they have not changed their position at all, and that they will still take him.

CRITICAL - MUST LISTEN:

We MUST focus on winning the midterms, and try to get a 2/3 majority in the house and Senate. Then we can enact Article 2, Section 4

📢 New paper on the impacts of AMOC collapse on European hydroclimate. 🌊

We find an AMOC collapse would exacerbate drought conditions across Europe, linked to reduced precipitation. In combination with climate change droughts are expected to become more frequent and severe.

"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.

I'm pressuring Trump to release the transcript of his call with MBS.

As I said on Meet the Press, the American people deserve to know what was said on that call. Checkmate, Mr. President.

This is not the first time the president has attacked me, and it won’t be the last. 
  
But let’s be clear about what he’s trying so hard to distract from: his disturbing phone call with the Saudi Crown Prince after the murder of journalist and Virginia resident Jamal Khashoggi.

Think of steel as flour for the manufacturing economy. A tariff is like a flour tax: the mill might add 1,000 jobs, but factories using flour cut around 75,000. That’s what happens when you tax an input instead of solving the real problem.

The government’s own court reporter says the grand jury was literally released before they could have voted on the indictment… and somehow we’re all supposed to pretend the math adds up? This isn’t “procedural confusion.”

Charges dropped against Utah doctor accused of throwing away $28,000 in COVID vaccine doses The federal government has dismissed charges against a Utah plastic surgeon accused of throwing away COVID-19 vaccines worth thousands of dollars during the pandemic.

This is fu*king outrageous!

The federal government on Saturday dismissed charges against a Utah plastic surgeon accused of throwing away COVID-19 vaccines, giving children saline shots instead of the vaccine and selling faked vaccination cards.
