"Those who study the law and are experts on the balance of power warn that unless Congress reasserts its authority soon, we may end up unable to repair the guardrails that have held our government together for centuries."

Historians of the future: Rest assured, millions of us know all this in real time. We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends. trib.al/HpD2mwJ

Today marks two years since the October 7 attack that took the lives of almost 1,200 parents, children, friends, and neighbors, and took 251 people hostage, in an act of sheer hate. It kicked off 2 years of pain, suffering and violence for Israelis and Palestinians that’s resulted in... (1/4)
