The estimate: #Trump sending about 4,000 #NationalGuard #troops and 700 #Marines to deal with "unrest" in #LosAngeles will cost $134 million for 60 days of operations.

"As President Donald Trump careens further and further into authoritarianism, congressional leadership veers from ambivalence to encouragement and the U.S. Supreme Court has only stepped in on a handful of rare occasions — primarily addressing the process (or lack thereof) employed by the administration, not the substance of its actions."

The #PosseComitatusAct is just 1 sentence.

18 USC §1385—Use of Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, & Space Force as posse comitatus

Whoever, except in cases & under circumstances expressly authorized by the #Constitution or Act of #Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, or the Space Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 2 years, or both.

“What’s notable about #Trump is the enormous scale & extent, which is greater than under any modern president,” said Ilya Somin, who is representing 5 US businesses who sued the admin, claiming they were harmed by Trump’s so-called “Liberation Day” #tariffs.

Because #Congress has the #power to set #trade policy under the #Constitution, a federal #TradeCourt ruled Trump overstepped his authority by claiming an economic #emergency to impose the tariffs. An appeals court paused the ruling….

Tell Congress: Support the Block the Bombs Act.

June 5, 2025

On June 5, Members of #Congress introduced the first ever bill that proactively seeks to prevent the U.S. from sending some of the worst weapons to the #Israeli military.

Congresswoman Delia Ramirez (Illinois) along with Representatives Sara Jacobs (California), Pramila Jayapal (Washington), and Mark Pocan (Wisconsin) led 18 other members of #USCongress in introducing the Block the Bombs Act, historic legislation that would prevent #Trump from sending some of the worst-offender weapons that #Israel has used to carry out genocide against #Palestinians in #Gaza.

Tell your member of Congress to join the Block the Bombs Act today.

I’m starting a pool on when the republicans in #Congress find the brains and the balls to pull the #25thAmendment on Donny Two Dolls and slide JD into the Oval Office. It’s obvious he’s Thiel’s lap dog so maybe some tugging between him and Elon might occur, or maybe the 2 of them will sort things out. Might could be a billionaire free for all blowing up in the shadows, maybe in daylight even, all of em taking sides. Time to invest in #popcorn futures.

At the same time, the polarization of #Congress means that few pieces of #legislation make it to the floor or enactment—& the few “must pass” bills that do are almost always stuffed full of unrelated measures that would otherwise be unable to pass on their own.
In the case of the 1,037-pg bill the #GOP calls the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, #Republicans barely cobbled together the votes to pass it after a fight within their ranks & significant pressure from #Trump to pass his domestic priorities.

Continued thread

The #Republicans’ *remorseful* statements highlight the realities of legislating in the modern age. Members of #Congress, divided bitterly along partisan lines & often working against self-imposed political deadlines, have become accustomed to having their leaders throw together huge pieces of #legislation at the very last moment — & often do not read the entirety of the bill they are voting on, if they read any of it at all.

#Trump has sent his request to the #US #Congress to rescind the funding they approved for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting which will of course be approved because Congress is controlled by the MAGA. That means #newjersey 's NJ #PBS is going to lose about $2 million in funding. If you can donate to help keep NJ PBS on the air, please do it. give.njpbs.org #publicbroadcasting #education #njpbs

#Trump to #Congress: kill #funding for #PBS, #NPR & public broadcasters

Trump took yet another step Tues to place NPR & PBS at the center of his broader clash with major cultural institutions & a #FreePress, by formally asking Congress to take back the $1.1B it already set aside for all public broadcasters for the next 2yrs.
A simple majority of lawmakers in each chamber must approve what's technically known as a "rescission request" within 45 days for it to become #law.

The #GOP’s New #Medicaid Denialism
Unable to defend their #healthcare #cuts on the merits, congressional #Republicans have pivoted to magical thinking.
Republicans in #Congress claim to have achieved something truly miraculous. Their One Big Beautiful Bill Act, they argue, would cut nearly $800B from Medicaid spending over 10yrs without causing any Americans to lose #health care—or, at least, without making anyone who loses health care worse off.

Created in early 1900s, the reserves were originally envisioned as a #fuel supply for the Navy in times of emergency. But in 1976, #Congress authorized full commercial development of the federal land & ordered the govt to balance #oil #drilling w/ #conservation & #wildlife protection.
Burgum accused the #Biden admin of prioritizing “obstruction over production & undermining our ability to harness domestic resources at a time when American energy independence has never been more critical.”

…Robert Gottheim, Nadler’s co-chief of staff, confirmed there was no arrest but otherwise declined to comment on the unusual event that resulted in federal agents entering the office of a Democratic member of #Congress, accusing office staffers of #criminal wrongdoing & handcuffing a staffer.

The Air Force revealed earlier this year that a general who oversaw its lobbying before Congress had inappropriate relationships with five women.

Sources say one of the women whose relationship with him was scrutinized was Sen. Joni Ernst.
