Lawrence Tribe doesn’t just educate. As this post shows, he can also motivate!

Per Just Security this AM, we are not moving towards a police state — we are moving towards a military state. 😡 “FEDERALIZATION OF D.C. POLICING The governors of Mississippi and Louisiana yesterday said they would send a total of 335 National Guard members to Washington.” This must be stopped!

Armenia has agreed to allow a corridor through its territory to let people and goods travel between Turkey and Azerbaijan without passing through Iran or Russia named the “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity.” foreignpolicy.com/2025/08/08/a...

Can somebody please tell me who is running DOGE, under what authority, and with what stated mission?

Joe Biden led the country out of the darkness of Trump 1.0 and oversaw the development of positive momentum socially, economically, and politically. The fact that he was declining at the end of his term doesn’t negate that. Give the man credit, wish him some good years ahead, and move on.

It isn’t tax rates in and of themselves that make a difference, it’s tax equity and collections. Auditors matter.

Can somebody please tell me why this person is not being impeached? open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

We rely on the legal system and judges for due process, but then Judge Hannah Dugan gets do-do process. Obviously the Justice Department under its current leadership is misnamed.

This needs to be known, honored, and supported by all. www.aacu.org/newsroom/a-c...

So, who was tipped about the tariff reversal? Will we ever know?

As reported … “It’s good to win,” [Trump] told reporters on Air Force One on the way back to D.C. “You heard I won, right? Did you hear I won? Just to back it up, you were there, I won. I like to win.” Has anyone ever recorded his scores?

This is my most recent Substack post. It is a comment on one of the more disturbing choices many are facing. open.substack.com/pub/nosizefi...

This is a helpful (and somewhat reassuring) post from Jay Kuo - a very reliable source. substack.com/home/post/p-...

From WAPO “I...Musk said early Monday he’s in the process of closing the agency.” Who in the hell is he to close down anything? Can somebody please explain.

Laws only have value if the impact of violations can be mitigated and lawbreakers suffer negative consequences.

I keep seeing “It’s against the law!” If so, where are the consequences!

Re: “Buyout” From an ex-appointee (not me) - “…congress hasn’t approved a full year appropriation or continuing resolution. So there is no money to promise. Any contract would be subject to appropriation and could then be reneged when there was no such approved expenditure. It is a trap.”

To HCR and the rest of the world I say, “I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear.”

To Republican legislators … You have been held hostage. You have been used, abused, and captured by lies and false hopes. You have been enslaved. You cannot achieve peace until you free yourself from the shackles of the self-declared savior and his minions. Act now. DECLARE YOUR INDEPENDENCE!

The clown car has been swapped for a stretch limo. Enough said!

As I sit here on Sunday morning, if I were a prayerful person I would be praying that Biden does something both good and controversial before the day is out that commands attention and draws it away from the investiture of Trump and its related hoopla. Touché!

So, DOGE, per the WAPO, is soon expected to have 100 or so unelected people working for other unelected people all with no government savvy to set fire to a government that has done pretty damn well over the last four years. My prediction - It will be a sh*t show for which they will then be blamed.

This piece does a good job of summing up one element of the current lunacy. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

For anyone who hasn’t read it, I strongly urge you to read the following … wapo.st/407mEfk

Bulletin from Jamie Raskin: “ As Trump’s oligarchs prepare for the royal restoration, the Judiciary Committee will be the headquarters of Congressional opposition to the authoritarianism of President Musk and Vice-President Trump and MAGA’s sweeping campaign to dismantle our Constitutional order….."

The freakin’ congress should stop going around hollerin’ like they are at a high school pep rally and do their jobs.

It’s looking like Trump is Musk’s proxy not the other way around.
