McGovern: Can you explain what is happening with the Iran war powers resolution that was scheduled to be voted on this evening? Are we not voting on it because the American people are sick and tired of this illegal war that is costing tens of billions of dollars?

However appalled you are by this, it’s not enough.
It’s a frank statement that Trump and Trumpists are above the law and need not even plausible excuses to loot your tax dollars. It’s a total failure of our civic institutions.

And then there's this:
The settlement gets sweeter for Team Trump
In a newly-posted, one-page document, the Justice Dept details that it is now prohibited from pursuing tax claims against Trump or his family in the future

In Callais Alito claimed racism was over. Now Southern states rushing to revive Jim Crow, eliminating or set to eliminate at least 5 majority Black districts in TN, AL, LA, SC, MS. This is bigger than partisan politics. Multiracial democracy under all out assault www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Alito said racism was over. Southern states are now rushing to revive Jim Crow.

And now Trump and Blanche’s corrupt Star Chamber Secret Tribunal will convene behind closed doors to dole out $1.7 billion to their criminal co-conspirators, with everything hidden from the American people. They will keep secret who gets paid, how much they get paid, and why.

Today I traveled to Selma with my colleagues in Congress to take a stand against the radical right-wing plot to suppress Black political representation and dismantle our democracy by gutting the Voting Rights Act. We’ve made too much progress in this country to go backwards. We won’t be silenced.

AIPAC should be a litmus test for Democrats ahead of the 2026 elections. It's primary season. There's time to pressure them right now. There's no reason why any Democrat is still willing to take money from the pro-Israel group funded by GOP billionaires and extremists.
