  • Two dozen states sue Trump administration over potential food stamp cuts – US politics live

    State officials ask federal judge to force Washington to use emergency reserve funds so 42 million Americans on food stamps will not lose their benefits on 1 NovemberIn a letter this morning, James Comer, the House oversight chair, has asked the justice department to investigate whether Joe Biden’s aides improperly used an autopen to sign executive actions, claiming the former president’s inner circle concealed his cognitive decline while exercising presidential authority without authorization.“While President Biden’s deterioration was evident to the American people, and consequently, robust systems should have been put in place to document executive actions reflected the actual will of the president, the President’s inner circle took no action to establish such a record,” Comer wrote in the letter.

  • Trump’s third term? Don’t laugh. He’s never let the rules stop him before | Arwa Mahdawi

    He has floated the idea more than once – and his inner circle is already gaming it out. The US constitution might say no, but Trump has a habit of finding his way around even the biggest obstaclesLet me tell you a secret about the US constitution: it’s just a piece of paper. It’s not immutable law created by a higher being. It was made by men, it’s been amended by men, and it can be destroyed by men. It’s only as strong as the institutions that uphold it – institutions which Donald Trump has been systematically weakening as he expands his executive power.I say this because there are still lots of people who have faith that the constitution can stop the US from gradually turning into an electoral autocracy like Hungary. There are still people so drunk on American exceptionalism that they think it’s ludicrous to believe Trump might seek a third term, because such a move is explicitly outlawed by the 22nd amendment of the constitution.
