Theoretically the VP and Cabinet could invoke the 25th, which immediately strips the president of the powers of office. Congress then has 21 days to hold a vote to confirm; they could use that time to impeach & convict while he is without power. Not saying this is likely, mind you.

Good thread up from here. And much as I hate Schumer & Jefferies's milquetoast rhetoric in the face of an all-fronts assault on democracy, the budget is one of the few points where the Dems in office have *real* leverage and good on them for sticking the crowbar in there and pulling hard.

What happens if Dems not only say no to the ACA/Medicaid cuts but no to the tariffs, clean energy cuts and everything else that was passed without their votes in reconciliation? I don't think people understand what an incredible shitshow Trump, Thune and Johnson have created, how weak they are. 4/

To an extent, this is a point well-taken. But what Kagan is doing is, first, telling the truth, our first duty under an authoritarian regime; and second, laying the ground work for a future reconstruction. It’s what we’re begging Schumer & Jeffries to do, esp. since that’s called *campaigning*.

Once again, this perfect @zeboydgames.bsky.social post comes to mind:

Russia is about to enter the fourth year of a protracted quagmire they thought they'd wrap up in a weekend so kind of a weird example

The people who were very temporarily opposed to violence last week are back to celebrating mass murder for its own sake with a zeal that can only be described as “outlandishly horny.”

"Republicans run the entire government but can't keep it open" That's it. That's the whole story.

Gene Wolfe said that everyone in the military knew someone who really, really wanted to get out there and kill people, and everyone also knew those people were rare, unpleasant, and dangers to themselves and everyone around them.

A point that needs to be made explicitly: Jimmy Kimmel faced down Donald Trump and won. Period. “Trump can talk tough, puff out his chest and act like he’s an unstoppable force. But he’s not. Money talks. The masses talk, and they matter.” My column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

“I’m resigning from my position as Democratic leader and retiring from the Senate.”

"'Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life ... Someone who says I’m against abortion but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don’t know if that’s pro-life.'" www.ncregister.com/cna/pope-leo...

The opening paragraphs - it's like, I don't know, Shakespeare, or Beethoven. You know it's great. Everyone knows it's great. But then you encounter it directly, in its own context, and you can only say, man this is so great.

Nuance is for friends & work partners. This moment calls for simple, urgent rallying cries.

Hi everyone from launch day for A Philosophy of Thieves! Thieves is my 9th novel & it’s launching close to the10-year birthday of my first book, Updraft. To celebrate, I’ve made my monthly craft essay public, with how-to-writer thoughts I’ve picked up over the past decade. www.patreon.com/post...

We’re less than a year out from Republicans saying that Hunter Biden creating even the appearance of presidential meddling in business transactions was the greatest corruption scandal of all time, and now they’re openly gloating about doing the same thing in the press

Serbian police have arrested eleven people for Islamophobic and antisemitic attacks in France, designed to convince French Muslims and French Jews to each blame the other and to exacerbate ethnic tensions inside France. They allegedly acted on behalf of Russia. www.timesofisrael.com/serbia-arres...

I’m really grateful for Pritzker. But that he’s so good at this also makes clear just how badly most other Democrats are failing to meet the moment.

I have a speculation about "generative AI", LLMs, and thinking, but it'll take me just a minute to get there. We know that the human brain has certain things "hardwired" into it. But before I go _there_ I want to remind people about sticky metaphors. /1

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

I feel naive just writing this, but a president threatening to withhold funding to a city unless it elects his preferred candidate for mayor seems like the sort of thing that shouldn't be legal.

there is no fear in America that informs policy so profoundly as the terror that we might accidentally afford someone human rights or dignity without first determining that they have earned those things; and, by extension, the idea that those things must be earned.
