The whole "blood moon" thing is out of control. It is not a synonym for total lunar eclipse. Never looked like blood to me.
There are total lunar eclipses where you can barely see the moon even if the sky is cloudless.

Donald Trump: ,
Yeah, sure, Trump wants to 'promote order' by getting rid of a symbol of resistance thats been up for 44 years. This isn't about peace, it's about control, plain and simple. If he cared about 'better,' he'd leave the vigil alone. Typical move.
I Love Donald Trump
Paranoia Nah, it's not paranoia when the government has been actively working to silence dissent for years. This isn't some random protest it's been there for over 40 years. People are upset, sure, but this is more about control than anything else.

discharge petition to force a vote on releasing all of the Department of Justices files on Jeffrey Epstein now has . It needs 218. Only three other Republicans have signed on and they can always remove their names if they think its in their interest. Theres no time limit on gathering co-sponsors for a discharge petition, so now its just a question of whether Republican voters remain interested enough in the topic to force any of their representatives to sign on or whether .
Senate Votes
There were two procedural votes on the Senates version of the (aka NDAA). Because we were asked about the filibuster for our August Mailbag and we elided some detail, this is a good and short opportunity to show the detail in action.
This bill is nowhere near becoming law. The actual bill has yet to be voted on in the Senate and theres a competing version in the House (also not yet voted on). These votes were just moving along the process to get to the vote on the bill.
- Vote 1 on Sept. 2: Motion to Invoke Cloture: Motion to Proceed to S. 2296. Because this was a cloture vote, it required 60 votes in support to pass, which it got easily with . A yes vote meant yes, I would like to end debate on whether we will move to the motion to proceed. Successful cloture votes have a practical effect of a two business day wait for the next vote in the process. You can read much more about it from the .
- Vote 2 on Sept. 4: Motion to Proceed on S. 2296: National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026. This vote required only a simple majority, which it exceeded significantly: . A yes vote in this case meant yes, I would like to proceed to debate.
Of these two, Vote 1 was a filibuster vote because it required a 3/5ths majority or 60 votes to pass.
Whats next for the Senates FY26 NDAA Very probably a cloture vote on the bill itself, so another round of 60 votes required, at least a two day wait and then a vote on the bill itself which will need only a simple majority. There may well be lots more interim procedural votes too. It depends on how much negotiation is needed to get to a final product the chamber is willing to vote on. But they will likely follow the same pattern: a higher passage threshold to get going on X and a lower passage threshold to pass X.
House Votes
These bills are not near passage. Having passed the House, they would need to pass the Senate in identical form. The ones repealing Biden Administration regulations may get through the Senate fairly soon based on the Senates actions on previous similar bills, but theres no timeline for the rest.

Notable Failure
Normally we dont cover bills/resolutions that dont pass. However, as the use of censure has become much more frequent in the last few years, we were surprised to see that the attempt to censure failed this week thanks to support for from a small number of Republicans.

McIver has been charged with assaulting law enforcement when ICE officers attempted to arrest the Mayor of Newark after three members of Congress had inspected an ICE facility in Newark and the members of Congress attempted to prevent ICE from doing so.

The Supreme Court has expanded Trumps power. Hes seeking much more.
The presidents firing of Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook and other cases could serve as major tests of how far the high court is willing to go.

The Supreme Court has already President Donald Trumps authority in , but in his firing of Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook and other issues probably headed to the court, hes signaling that he continues to seek broader powers for the executive branch.
The cases could serve as major tests of how much further the nations high court is willing to go to bless the presidents assertion of executive authority. They differ from previous showdowns because of the sheer magnitude of the authority Trump is seeking to wield and because he wants greater control over powers the Constitution ascribes to another branch of government.
In addition to Cooks case, which could make its way to the high court after she a blockbuster case over Trumps tariffs is expected to arrive at the Supreme Court soon after an appeals court . The Trump administrations pushto withhold tens of appropriated by Congress could also end up in the court.

Other presidents have tried to use their authority aggressively, but usually its been done through aggressive interpretations of statutory law and in a pretty targeted way, Shane said.
Each of the presidential powers being contested by Trump, he said, is a challenge to what I think heretofore would have been regarded as a core power of Congress.
The high court has already signaled openness to broad presidential authority to replace some heads of independent agencies.
The justices handed Trump a major victory in May when they allowed him to of the National Labor Relations Board and the Merit Systems Protection Board while legal challenges play out over their firings. Trump gave no reasons for the dismissals.
The courts conservative majority ruled that the Constitution vests all executive power in the president, so Trump could fire the agency heads without cause even though Congress set up the agencies to be insulated from political interference.

Libraries, archives, and museums are not only cultural institutions they are also constitutional institutions.
As agencies and organizations rooted in the 10th Amendments recognition of state and local authority, they embody and manifest First Amendment rights of speech, press, religion, petition, and assembly, while advancing the Fourteenth Amendments promise of equal protection under the law. Every day in these very local institutions, the public experiences freedom of inquiry, the diversity of belief, and the dignity of equal access, ideally without fear or favor.
On Constitution Day 2025, we are reminded that libraries, archives, and museums give form and substance to our constitutional principles in neighborhoods, towns, schools, and campuses across the nation. This year, we are honored to be joined by a distinguished lineup of voices:
- Dr. Colleen J. Shogan, former Archivist of the United States and now Senior Advisor at More Perfect, is bringing her expertise on the preservation of our nations founding documents and the future of civic education.
- Dan Novack, Vice President and Associate General Counsel at Penguin Random House, has been on the front lines of groundbreaking First Amendment cases from Florida to Iowa to Idaho.
- Joe Caiazzo, Adjunct Professor of American Political Thought at Endicott College and political communications strategist, focuses on how we communicate constitutional values in elections and advocacy.
- Stephana Ferrell, Co-Founder and Director of Research & Insight at the Florida Freedom to Read Project, is a leading voice in the fight against book bans and in turning court rulings into civic lessons.
- Dr. Casey Burgat, Director of the Legislative Affairs Program at George Washington University, whose new book We Hold These Truths confronts the myths distorting our democracy.
Join EveryLibrary Live! on September 17 for a full day of conversations with leaders and advocates who are putting those principles into action. You can watch all sessions live on EveryLibrarys and or on-demand right away, anytime.
1:00 p.m. EDT
Dr. Casey Burgat, George Washington University
As we reflect on the Constitution in practice, Dr. Casey Burgat challenges us to confront the myths that distort our understanding of democracy. His new book, We Hold These Truths: How to Spot the Myths That Are Holding America Back (Authors Equity Press), brings together voices from across the political spectrum to debunk common misconceptions about term limits, lobbyists, money in politics, the media, bipartisanship, and more.
Dr. Burgat is Director of the Legislative Affairs Program at George Washington Universitys Graduate School of Political Management. A former congressional staffer and governance fellow, he is a widely published scholar and commentator whose work focuses on strengthening Congress and rebuilding trust in American government. On Constitution Day, he will explore how separating fact from fiction in our civics can empower all of us to demand a government that truly works for the people.

Paranoia Nah, it's more like common sense. You can't just let something like that sit there indefinitely, especially when it's an eyesore and gets in the way of progress. If were talking about peace, we need to be realistic, not stuck in the past.
Oh, right, because silencing dissent is definitely the path to peace, right Trump wants to erase a 44-year-old symbol of resistance to promote 'order' It's not about peace, it's about control. If anything, dismantling this vigil is the opposite of making this country 'better.'
