A reminder that the Constitution was not written to restrain the citizens' behavior.

It was written to restrain the government's behavior.

It's only Tuesday and Trump has fucked up a pool for $14 Million, lost a war agreeing to pay Iran $300 Billion, and ballooned his already expensive ballroom budget by another $200 Million.

Where are the Republicans screaming about "waste, fraud and abuse"?

The only consequence should be more charges.

Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter

P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.

“Testing positive for pregnancy” is an in interesting way to say “being raped and impregnated by ICE agents”

Tell me how it makes sense that a woman can go to jail for getting an abortion but a cop gets paid leave when he murders a baby...

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

With $300 billion, we could end homelessness, fund cancer research for 40 years, and give every child free pre-K for over 7 years. Instead, Trump is sending it to Iran. This is not America First. Not even close.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

How the fuck do we have $300 billion to rebuild Iran after we spent $80 billion bombing it, when we don’t “have the money” for pediatric cancer research?

[Covie @covie_93]

In this photo there is a Princeton University graduate and a Harvard Law School graduate.

Michelle Obama is both.

[Spencer Hakimian @SpencerHakimian]

We’re about to spend $300,000,000,000 rebuilding Iran after spending $80,000,000,000 destroying it, while telling Americans on Medicaid to take a hike.

America First.

having our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean water is a failure of the human species

Hey MAGA parents: if your daughter brought a guy home and said his role model for how to treat women is Donald Trump, would you let him date your daughter?

Currently the only option is to go downstairs to the ground floor, back out to Poydras, and around into Champions Square. With the new security setup, we can’t access any of the outdoor restrooms without going through security. Any new solutions this week? @Saints

[Emma Stieffel @EmmaStieffel]

Sooo @Saints have y’all added bathrooms that we can access before the game from Garage 1, or are we supposed to hold it for the whole tailgate again tomorrow?

[Emma Stieffel @EmmaStieffel]

…sort our bags so we could fly out the next day, but managed to get Patricka Hogue ON HER DAY OFF to call Marissa working in Nola to get Roy Middleton to take my passport on the next flight to ATL today. @Delta SHOW THESE PEOPLE SOME LOVE !!!!!!!

[Emma Stieffel @EmmaStieffel]

I’ve had a number of reasons over the years to almost exclusively fly @Delta but today TOPPED EVERYTHING❤️ i didn’t realize I dropped my passport at the NOLA airport til we reached our gate in @ATLairport to head to our honeymoon in St. Lucia. And here are the folks who helped…

[Emma Stieffel @EmmaStieffel]

FINALLY THE STARS OF THE SHOW: at @Delta gate F12 in @ATLairport, Deborah Akin-David, Berthrenda Johnson and the ATL star of the show Maimouna Dem made “above and beyond” seem like an understatement. They not only spent 30min calling around to everyone they knew to rebook and…

[Emma Stieffel @EmmaStieffel]

Karen Johnson at the @ATLairport F Terminal information desk closest to gate F12 found a TSA agent as WONDERFUL as she was to help call TSA at @msyinfo and FOUND MY PASSPORT there. Karen also started looking up local emergency passport places in case it actually was lost❤️ …

[Emma Stieffel @EmmaStieffel]

At the F terminal Sky Club, Hannah Lee & Mischelda Sapp called the plane we’d just gotten off and @msyinfo @Delta Sky Club in NOLA to search high and low for my passport, which came up short but their help and support were incredible. Then…
