Hey, DC, if you see these middle and high school kids rolling through town today, give ‘em a cheer. They’re the BRAG Dream Team from Georgia, and are stopping here while they ride from *Miami to Maine*. #bikeDC

So based on decisions from just this week, the President, as long has he has the gloss of officialdom, can basically do anything without legal restraint, whereas the President, acting via duly appointed agencies authorized by Congress, is more restrained than ever? What a coherent jurisprudence!

school kids bunkered in a classroom around the nation hearing rapid fire shots in the corridor will be very happy to know that well akshually /technically/ it's an altered semiautomatic rifle with a plastic mechanism designed to allow rapid re-engagement of the trigger mechanism and not a machinegun
