The Supreme Court’s tariff decision extends far beyond tariffs. It stops Trump from deciding not to spend money Congress appropriated, and from going to war without Congress’s approval. A 6-3 majority of the Supreme Court decided yesterday that Trump cannot take core powers that the Constitution gives Congress. Instead, Congress must delegate that power clearly […]

Congress begins implementing its 2026 plan: to rein in Trump and reclaim control… But to do this, they need to pass a budget. Will it work? First of all, the US Senate has NOT yet passed a resolution banning Trump from fighting Venezuela. By a vote of 52 to 47, the Senate only tabled S.J. […]

The past week has been another horror show, and I share your anxiety and sleeplessness. But the past week also reveals the utter incompetence of Trump and his regime.

With this “good news” US President Donald Trump began his 100-minute speech, which was listened to by both houses of Congress and the Supreme Court justices.

To reign in America forever, the Democratic Party of the USA needs to pull off several operations. Change the voting rule in the Senate. Now, to pass a law, you need 60 votes out of 100, and not a simple majority of 51 votes. This old, reasonable rule forces the Senate, conceived as the center […]

It is unclear how to find a compromise, and the “shutdown” is getting closer. The bill proposed by House Speaker Mike Johnson on temporary funding of the federal budget for 6 months did not pass the lower house of Congress. 14 Republicans refused to vote for it. Two abstained. Three Democrats joined the speaker, but […]
