Launching military action without Congress is troubling enough. Doing so at a time when faith in the Constitution is collapsing makes it far more dangerous. thefp.com/p/the-war-in-i…

My take for @TheFP today. Two things can be true at the same time: 1) there's nothing more American than punching a Nazi in the face at Normandy (the Ayatollah and IRGC qualified under this rubric), and 2) executive overreach on war powers is the rot at the heart of our constitutional order.
Crises will always tempt governments to choose necessity over law, but the American people need to understand the stakes. History is filled with elegies to republics that chose poorly.

"What makes it possible for a totalitarian or any other dictatorship to rule is that people are not informed. How can you have an opinion if you are not informed?"

OSS Director Gen. William Donovan protested personally to FDR about this Executive Order. OSS recruited Japanese-Americans from the internment camps.

On this day in 1942, President Roosevelt signs Executive Order 9066. The directive calls for the immediate rounding up and internment of 110,000 Americans of Japanese descent.

OSS founder Gen. William “Wild Bill” Donovan was born OTD 1883. He is the only person in our nation’s history to receive its four highest decorations, including the Medal of Honor. FDR called him his “secret legs.” President Eisenhower said he was the “last hero.”

Why Europe is important to the US, why NATO is the most successful Alliance in history, and why it is crucial for all of us that we help Ukraine win its war against Russia...hope you'll watch this ten-minute video we recorded this Summer. @newdebateinc

Brilliant from @edwardlucas. I’ve spent much of my adult life defending NATO Allies on the Eastern Flank. I was also born German - and I couldn’t agree more with Edward’s analysis.

Impressive testimonial (about 11 minutes) by Evan Mawarire of Zimbabwe about the importance of Accountability as an essential element of building trust and confidence in our societies. His personal example of moral courage is inspiring.
