These changes include the arrival of China as a peer competitor, U.S. intervention in Venezuela, recent U.S. and Israeli actions in Iran, and—not least, America’s own rebellion against the international order that it has sustained for 80 years.

Well, this tests the limits of the unitary executive. Will Trump as president direct Treasury to make massive payment to settle suit by Trump as private person?

Today we honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a giant of the Civil Rights movement and a true American leader who challenged our Nation to live up to it’s highest ideals. America will never forget Dr. King and his example will inspire generations to come.#MLKDay

Dear #VinScelsa, parently its #RecordStoreDay. Member records? Member the Brucie-signed ones you still owe me and Razoo? Just sayin.
Thank you for making #Democracy360 a powerful reflection of our motto: Democracy from every angle. Over the past three days, we indeed explored democracy from every angle—from the Revolutionary War to law and civic norms to economic opportunity to music as a form of civic expression. We danced, clapped, learned, and connected with thousands of you. We hope to see you again at future events hosted by the Karsh Institute—where we bring people together to build a better democracy for all! *And a special thank you to our partners, @TheAtlantic and @myVPM!

If Americans want a more effective and responsible presidency, what would that look like? How would we get there? Miller Center Director @wjantholis explains how presidents have become more powerful, more partisan, and less popular. #WhiteHouse #POTUS zurl.co/kkpEP

IN 2 DAYS!⏰Presidents are more powerful, more partisan—and less popular. Why? On Sept. 24-25, the Miller Center will convene 50+ presidential experts—including senior officials of Democratic and Republican administrations—for our second Conference on the American Presidency.

Panelists—including former WH officials, journalists, and scholars across the political spectrum—will examine challenges facing the modern presidency. They will discuss what we might expect during the rest of the Trump admin and what might come in future admins of either party.

Statement by President George W. Bush: "Today, a young man was murdered in cold blood while expressing his political views. It happened on a college campus, where the open exchange of opposing ideas should be sacrosanct. Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens. May God bless Charlie Kirk and his family, and may God guide America toward civility."

Watched it. Come for John Mulaney. Stay for a dozen Mark Twains dancing, segueing into “Keep on Rockin’ in the Free World” And in the middle, you’re reminded why @ConanOBrien is truly special.
To quote Mark Twain, "My new Netflix special drops today."

"You do not create the level of trauma and pain that the [Kremlin] has created in Ukraine without, in turn, creating a similar amount of unity [on] the other side." @nickschifrin discussed Trump's approach to international relations with @wjantholis. zurl.co/ZHqxN
