Watch the full episode of The Bulwark Daily:
Great article. This aspect is not as obvious as others, and real. So many scenarios scream that Trump is incapable of ending this, and it expanding into greater geopolitical positioning. Fundamentally, China, Russia, Iran and North Korea have no interest in it ending, and Trump is clueless.
"One of the most dangerous moments in any military campaign comes when tactical success begins producing strategic overconfidence."
The rest of that story is still told through a particular faith today, not so much through the history books. But here is an historical account. Fascinating. 4/4 www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontli...

34. Allowed regulatory uncertainty in cryptocurrency to persist. Congress’s inability to establish clear statutory rules leaves businesses, investors and regulators dependent on the Trump administration.
33. Failed to defend the rule that laws are made by Congress, undermining the basic architecture of representative government.

bsky.app/profile/head... Your daily reminder of the failures of the 119th Congress. 1. The 119th Congress has repeatedly surrendered its Article I authority and obligation, allowing executive power to expand.
More to the point: The absence of knowledge is valued (unjustified belief) and they use it constantly.
Imposing something that someone believes “ought to be” is antithetical to our Constitution without the consensus of the People. And people have widely varying values and beliefs. Thousands of years has taught us something about society and human behavior. Knowledge is not a value to this admin 3/3.
An elective philosophy course had a profound effect on me, and still fuels my conclusions to fundamental questions. Epistemology (The Theory of Knowledge). For me, so much of what goes on, especially right now, gets viewed through this lens. Here, we have someone’s value; a belief, not knowledge (1/
Kevin Roberts is the president of The Heritage Foundation, the largest conservative think tank in America. He claims we shouldn’t be free to do what we “may,” but what we “ought.” Who says what we “ought” to do? Him? If that isn’t a threat to our freedom, then what is? More in our profile:

32. Failed the institutional test of the oath of office consistently. The oath does not require members to support a president, party or ideology; it requires support for the Constitution and faithful discharge of congressional duties.

Mike Johnson tried to claim this was one of the most productive Congresses ever. Then a brutal fact check appeared right beneath his post for all to see.

Paying for votes is a crime for the payer and the recipient 18 USC 597. With five-year statute of limitations, the next DOJ could bring charges. And the conduct would be beyond the scope of presidential immunity for Trump. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...
A product of a reality devoid of knowledge, and, well, not knowing the difference.
Robert Jeffress: "The beliefs of James Talarico are certainly wrong, but they're more than wrong. The beliefs of James Talarico are blasphemous! They are evil! And they are not beliefs that any true Christian could support ever."

Regardless of where you stand on other issues, the most important issue on the ballot in November is electing a Congress that fulfills its constitutional responsibility to check a lawless president. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...
Why give credance to the non-credible. bsky.app/profile/cc4u...
Imagine if a rational public decided to no longer offer this administration the "presumption of regularity" like the courts, or any “benefit“ of the doubt. There is no “benefit” to be gained. The press needs to follow suit and to say “no, these are the facts…you have no credibility…”
