I just fell in love

Kamala Harris is on Morning Joe right now and watching her made my eyes well up and my chest swell. I'm in love. I know it's early but I'm pretty sure I've found my candidate. I'm usually not fickle like this, and I'm sorry Bernie, but I'm in love.

She is just so marvelous!

Did you see her excitement when talking about distribution of resources and zip codes? She didn't need to check her notes, this is her passion. And it's a grand one!

Senators Corker and Kaine Want to Give President Trump the Authority to Wage Worldwide War

The Corker-Kaine AUMF would authorize force, without operational limitations, against eight groups in six countries. The president could then add to both lists, as long as the president reports the expansion to Congress. To be clear — the president would have unilateral authority to add additional countries — including the United States itself — to the list of countries where Congress is authorizing war. And the president would have unilateral authority to add additional enemies, including groups in the United States itself and even individual Americans, under its new authority for the president to designate “persons” as enemies.
