@OccupyDemocrats If Trump ran as the VP to JDVance or Rubio, he's not be "running" for Podus, but then if JD or Rubio were to be elected, and resigned; Trump could succeed and become President, without running for a third term.

BREAKING: SOUNDS OF SILENCE — Senate hearing goes deadly quiet as Trump’s federal judicial nominees REFUSE to admit third term is illegal. . Donald Trump is nominating people to lifetime federal judgeships who won't confirm that he can't run for a third term when they come before the Senate for their approval hearings. Let that sink in. Senator Chris Coons of Delaware asked what should be the easiest constitutional law question in American history at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing this week. He asked Trump's judicial nominees about the 22nd Amendment. The first nominee, John Marck, said that his career had been in criminal prosecution and that he hadn't had occasion to use that particular amendment. A federal judicial nominee. Unfamiliar with the 22nd Amendment. Seeking a lifetime appointment to interpret the Constitution. Another candidate eventually offered that it "deals with the two-term limitation." Correct. Gold star. Coons then asked the simple follow-up: is President Trump eligible to run for president again in 2028? Marck's response was a masterpiece of evasion: "Without considering all the facts and looking at everything, depending on what the situation is, this to me strikes as more of a hypothetical." Coons was patient. He walked Marck through it like a kindergarten teacher explaining why you can't eat paste. Has Trump been elected president twice? "President Trump has been certified the President of the United States two times." Is he eligible to run for a third term? "I would have to review the actual wording of it." A man seeking a lifetime federal judgeship needs to review the actual wording. Of the 22nd Amendment. Which is 61 words long. Coons then turned to the full panel and asked if anyone — anyone — was willing to simply state that the Constitution of the United States bars Trump from seeking a third term. A heartbreakingly long silence ensued. He asked again. Anyone willing to apply the Constitution by its plain language? More ominous silence. Nobody. Not one of Trump's judicial nominees would say out loud, under oath, in a Senate hearing, that the 22nd Amendment means what it plainly says. This isn't ignorance. These are lawyers. They know what the 22nd Amendment says. They know Trump has been talking openly about a third term. And they calculated — correctly, based on what happens to people who cross this president — that telling the constitutional truth was more dangerous than staying silent. The frightening thing is that these are the people who will be interpreting your rights for the next 30 years. Please like and share this post if you think federal judges should be willing to say the Constitution means what it says — even when the president doesn't want to hear it.

@elonmusk Congresspeople not passing their budgets-their salaries should be diverted to this effort. That may speed resolution to a 37 day shutdown?!

I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country

@GoldenAgeUnfold For my food truck?

Would you consider this ticket? Yes or never

@jonlovett @kaitlancollins Im not certain Biden's pressers were more factual/honest/candid?

I know we're meant to be inured to it - but president savaging @kaitlancollins and saying she doesn't smile and calls her a liar while asking about Epstein's victims and he just goes on to other questions, and then whoever he calls on next ... pretends it didn't happen? Bunch of smiling politicians behind him, including Susan Collins. Never stops being fucking gross.

@StandUpForFact Didn't you already have three 4 year terms?

Do you want Barak Obama back again? A. YES B. NO Everyone better answer this one correctly!!

@Riley_Gaines_ Difference of opinion Riley?! um, err, genitalia (original) isn't an opinion😂

I fully support revoking the medical license of any doctor who says men can get pregnant. We're not talking about just a difference of opinion. It's the denial of biological reality that has real effects on the healthcare women receive.

@Matt_Pinner Im in for $20

If you're offered $6 million to never listen to a Taylor Swift song again, would you take the offer? 🤔

@ElonMusk_LordX cardboard=9 + plate tags=5 + road signs=2 can we count her finger edges and fingernails as a sideways 6?=8

@grantstern @OccupyDemocrats We kinda did same thing with Panama and Manuel Noriega. Wasn't as much pushback then?! (wasn't as much social media) A significant portion of Americans are ignorant that while Congress solely has power to declare war, Commander in Chief has absolute power to conduct acts of war

Venezuela suffered greatly under the dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro. Hyper inflation, mass starvation that caused 10% of the population to flee for autumn in a single year, a police state with private gangs working for the government and gross public corruption, stolen elections and so much more wrong with his socialismo regime. Maduro is an evil person. His socialismo is just theft with a government badge. But America has a Constitution. America has laws. Antenna has Congress. Donald Trump ran roughshod over ALL of those to declare war on Venezuelas and capture Maduro. This is a signal to every dictatorship in the world that might makes right. We will see wars started because of Trump's war. Congress is filled with spineless Republicans devoid of morals, ethics or spines. But even a few of them should surely see that they have to stand up against a lawless President when they are the only check remaining against his power after the Supreme Court decided that laws don't really matter that much anymore to govern the president, unless they're bills of impeachment followed by convictions in the Senate. And we all know the Senate Republican caucus lacks ALL conviction, heart or character. If Trump gets away with this, his next target won't be someone vile like Maduro. And the next order consequences won't be so remote as they seem to those who think it's no big deal for the president to declare war unilaterally. We cannot let the man who holds America's nuclear football to his the power to declare war too. PERIOD. Sadly, I don't expect many Republicans in Congress to do jack shit.

@nicksortor It does seem odd when there's a serial murder we learn the background, childhood, social media etc of the perp- all exposed. But with Trump assassination attempts- crickets.

🚨 #BREAKING: President Trump has just ORDERED the Secret Service to provide “every bit of information” about his two would-be assassıns “I’m entitled to know,” Trump told NYP The deep state’s REALLY going to sweat over this one.

@DemocraticWins what's happened to the 4 yr old "Resist" bumper sticker😂

BREAKING: Senator Brian Schatz just announced he’s putting a hold on all of Donald Trump’s State Department nominees until USAID is back up and running. This is how you fight back.

@PhillipsPOBrien Im suspect when politician says "they were exactly correct, BUT..."

Everyone should prepare. Members of the Biden Administration and those who advised them closely are now spreading analyses around that they were exactly right, but that Ukraine didn’t listen to their genius and will collapse in 2025 because of this. Watch out for it.

@DanaPerino always appreciate a desire to be nice! But aligning being nice w/ any politician's behavior, kinda orthogonal? be nice without tying it to anyone's (politician's) work

I am looking for a way to be nice, but…he’s not giving me a lot to work with

@elonmusk perhaps she meant they are safe... from drones.

Insane. She should be recalled.

@DemocraticWins yes yes He's amazing. So many new Govt jobs, Job growth numbers that get revised down every time. He's the best. i think he should run for a 2nd term in 2028, maybe with a VP picked by race and sex?! He's been so great he'd get re-elected! Biden 42/ 44!😂

BREAKING: President Biden will become the first President in American history to register job growth in every single month during his Presidency. This is huge.

@Crazymoments01 @elonmusk better

@elonmusk Describe these two in one word?

What a scam

@LeadingReport OMG We're going to enforce the law?!

BREAKING: President-elect Trump has confirmed that he is prepared to declare a national emergency and deploy military assets to reverse the border crisis through a mass deportation program.

@LangmanVince @DC_Draino with such an easy, softball, setup! She whiffs.

@DC_Draino Worst answer in the history of political campaigns

Game over She just lost the election
