The question is not (and has not been) whether Congress should be micromanaging the war. It's always been whether the war should be happening at all, and that's a question only Congress has the constitutional power to answer.

This is literally an open invitation for ICE agents to lock up anyone they want by just asserting that they were within 25 feet or intimidating them. It is a police state in action.
Mike Lamb@ML73050761
@NormOrnstein Say I am 30 feet from an ICE agent who doesn't like me there and starts running at me and within a few seconds he has his hands on me while I haven't moved?

Combining pardons with the Supreme Court's presidential immunity decision unlocks the door to a truly lawless government. The law has never constrained power as it should but now they have created an arrangement where they don't even have to pretend anymore.

“Late Tuesday afternoon….Trump administration announced the most devastating attack on the U.S. Forest Service in the agency’s 121-year history. Not a budget cut. Not a policy shift. Not a “reorganization.” An execution.
They’re ripping the headquarters out of Washington and shipping it to Salt Lake City, Utah — the beating heart of the anti-public-lands movement in America.
They’re shuttering every single one of the ten regional offices that have governed this agency since Gifford Pinchot built the system over a century ago — and with them, the career professionals who spent entire lifetimes earning the expertise and the authority to push back when politicians came calling with bad ideas and worse motives.
They’re destroying more than fifty research facilities across thirty-one states, labs that house decades of irreplaceable long-term science, the kind you literally cannot restart once it’s gone.
And they’re replacing all of it — the offices, the scientists, the institutional knowledge, the professional independence — with fifteen political appointees called “state directors,” embedded in state capitals alongside the very governors, legislators, and industry lobbyists who have spent their careers demanding that the Forest Service log more, protect less, and get out of the way.
One hundred and ninety-three million acres of your national forests. An area larger than Texas. The largest public land agency in the country. Just handed, on a silver platter, to the people who’ve spent their entire careers trying to destroy it.”

Mayor Mamdani is at the red panda exhibit at the Prospect Park Zoo to announce a settlement against food delivery app HungryPanda.
“They are very hungry pandas, unlike the HungryPanda app, they, however, are not interested in bamboozling hard working New Yorkers,” Mamdani says

The ICE warehouse spending spree may be padding the accounts of big financial institutions, all at your expense.
New data shows DHS paying investment firm Blue Owl Capital $119 million for a warehouse, 2x the market value. And at least 33 members of the Trump administration invest in Blue Owl’s various private equity funds.
In another case, Goldman Sachs sold a New Jersey facility to ICE for $129.3 million — 137% over value.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Read the full story here: substack.perfectunion.us/p/the-worlds-b….

I sympathize with the sentiment but must make a crucial distinction. "AI" is not coming for us, the AI firms and their c-suite executives, as well as the managerial class buying their products as leverage over labor—*they're* the ones "coming for us."
Daniel Aldana Cohen@aldatweets
AI is coming for us—and it's coming hardest for the working class. Without radical changes to our political economy, what's left of our democracy will wither. The time for "moderate" reforms is over. @jennifermharris nails it

Calling Lake Erie and its economy “hidden” is quite the tell.

Ohio’s northern coast is a hidden gem & we’re going to make sure more people get to enjoy it. There’s no reason it can’t be an even bigger summer tourism destination. 💪🏼

I finally discovered why they are doing this! The new Kindle devices have ads in them, which you have to pay extra to remove them. I’m assuming they couldn’t put ads on the old Kindles. Sooner or later the ads will play every other page! We live in corporate hell now!
Hugo Guerra @FMX_Conference@HugoCGuerra
A Kindle is probably one of the most low-tech devices ever made, so why is @AmazonUK discontinuing support for Kindle 1st and 2nd Generation? Why are they forcing new stuff without reason? A KINDLE IS A TEXT DEVICE! There is no need for updates. Text is text! #amazon #kindle

One expert analysis I saw calculated that if Iran charges a $2mm per ship toll, and Hormuz transits return to average levels, it would earn Iran up to $71B annually. Even just a toll on oil/gas earns $21B, which is 3x Iran's current defense budget. This is a huge win for Iran.
Jonathan Karl@jonkarl
This morning, I asked President Trump if he’s okay with the Iranians charging a toll for all ships that go through the Strait of Hormuz, he told me there may be a Joint US-Iran venture to charge tolls: “We’re thinking of doing it as a joint venture. It’s a way of securing it — also securing it from lots of other people.” “It’s a beautiful thing”
