War Power.

The procedural vote is still a war vote. We track the roll calls, the wrappers, and the people who pretend otherwise.

2 / 3Sourcing rule

No public issues under this beat yet. The next file lands when the receipts clear the 2-of-3 source gate.

How we run every beat.

  1. Primary records first. FEC, Congress.gov, SEC Edgar, court dockets, agency filings — never the press release.
  2. Two-of-three sourcing. No receipt prints without a primary record plus two corroborating sources.
  3. Right of reply. Every named subject gets a 72-hour reply window. Replies print in full at /right-of-reply.
  4. Corrections in public. The diff goes to /corrections, signed and dated.
