Does America stand by the Afghan Allies who stood by it?

Mullin once suggested it should. Now he can prove it, I argue in WaPo.

@TECleveland @cremieuxrecueil Despite some bogus grants, a lot of government is like this cartoon. I bet this "small team" would find a line item for "screwworm sterilization" and delete it, not knowing that they just devastated American farming: https://t.co/OAnAkxDSEK

Glad to see Pope Leo engaging in Illinois's oldest political tradition - cash payoffs.

[ABC News @ABC]

Pope Leo got an unexpected earthly windfall: $8.65 that he left in an old Paypal account in the U.S. The proceeds of the papal Paypal were presented by an official from Illinois.

He won't veto it, its a concurrent resolution.

For veterans, service members, and military families, this vote means Congress has begun to do the job the Constitution assigns it.

For that, we who swore an oath to defend that Constitution are thankful.

[Peter Lucier @PeterLucier]

We have asked for Congress, for the people's House to take a stand on war-making for two decades.

I'm genuinely stunned and I think elated? It will have no legal effect. I don't care.

Too late for my war. But not too late. Thank you, Congress.

And what of Cair Andros? That, too, must be held, if Osgiliath is defended. Let us not forget the danger on our left. The Rohirrim may come, and they may not. But Faramir has told us of great strength drawing ever to the Black Gate. More than one host may issue from it

It's a tradition that runs from 1813 to today.

The point is simple: serving far from home shouldn't cost you your vote.

Military or overseas voter? → https://t.co/0sGz9UhZdB

[The Chamberlain Network @ChamberlainVets]

For troops overseas and citizens abroad, voting isn't a walk to the polls. A ballot has to make a round trip — out across bases, ships, foreign mail, then all the way back.

Here's how voting overseas works, and the story of the military voting while deployed, long before 1986🧵

@RadioFreeTom @ARRDunbar @ArnoldBogis and people say you aren't a real Republican

[Peter Lucier @PeterLucier]

@RadioFreeTom @ARRDunbar @ArnoldBogis Tom Ricks wrote a whole book about it.

Read about Congress’s tools under the War Powers Resolution once the statutory 60-day clock has run:

Discrimination has no place in our military.

Write the White House and demand an independent review of these allegations, and a public commitment that no service member will be denied advancement because of race, gender, or political association.

Bob Costas setting the scene for Cards vs Cubs Sunday Night Baseball. Immaculate vibes.

@GainesTweets It’s just so nice to see people who know and care about the city presenting St Louis in a kind light to the country

Anyone who used a computer between 1985-2010. What’s the one game you still think about?
