David Frum@davidfrum.bsky.social · 2y agoTrump claims power to overturn Article I of the Constitution (Congress's authority over spending); Article II (predecessor's pardon power); and Article III (by defying a federal court order).
The way @michelmartinnpr.bsky.social came for the new Deputy Homeland Security Secretary Troy Edgar this morning was a master class in how to hold leaders accountable in this chaos. Thank you for reintroducing the world to accountability journalism.

I miss the days when a national tragedy would unite us.
If you ever want to be reminded of why you hate people, stop by your grocery store to pick up a few items for dinner 48 hours before a trace of snow is set to hit.
Media finally calling it like it is. Not only does the emporer have no clothes, he has no brain.

For those of us keeping track, the first big loser of the new administration is *checks notes* kids with cancer.
Sawyer Hackett@sawyerhackett.bsky.social · 2y agoThanks to Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Republicans cut $190 million for pediatric cancer research from the funding bill. Congrats to DOGE on their first victory.
I’m going to say something historians rarely say. We haven’t been here before. We haven’t had a near-authoritarian takeover of our government. Admittedly, we don’t know what comes next. There’s a wide array of options. But know that in the US, this is new ground. And none of this is normal.
