I woke up to Josh Hawleyโ€™s face on TV, with the chyron that โ€œRepublicans say that boots on the ground would be a red lineโ€. Such BS. They have no red line, theyโ€™re into servitude.

While Bombing Iran, Trump Sends US Troops Into Ground War on Drugs in Ecuador | Common Dreams "Why is Trump attacking Ecuador?" asked one leftist news outlet. "Same reason heโ€™s in Iran + Venezuela: oil 'secured' by force, sold as fighting a 'dictatorship' and/or 'drugs.'"

Americans stranded in the Middle East say the State Department hotline Marco Rubio told them to call plays a recorded message warning: โ€œPlease do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation at this time.โ€

Virginia Supreme Court clears way for voters to counter GOP gerrymanders The decision restores the referendum and allows election preparations to move forward immediately.

Good news!

The Virginia Supreme Court ruled Wednesday, for the second time, that voters can decide whether the state can redraw its congressional map โ€” clearing the way for a referendum that, if successful, could help counter GOP gerrymanders nationwide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

OMG! Trump DOJ Lawyer HELD IN CONTEMPT After MAJOR VIOLATION
YouTube video by Katie Phang OMG! Trump DOJ Lawyer HELD IN CONTEMPT After MAJOR VIOLATION

For the first time in Trump Regime 2.0, a federal judge has held a DOJ lawyer in contempt of court for violating her orders.

My thoughts on why this should be recognized for its significance as the first step towards possibly throwing people in jail for noncompliance.

Women With High-Risk Pregnancies Have Limited Options Under Abortion Bans Our reporting has found that abortion bans generally donโ€™t include exceptions that cover health concerns pregnant women with chronic conditions can face โ€” or if they do, doctors arenโ€™t using them.

Tierra Walker knew that abortion was illegal in Texas, but she thought that hospitals could make an exception for patients like her, whose health was clearly on the line.

At 20 weeks pregnant, she died of preeclampsia.

Warner: "There was no imminent threat to the United States by the Iranians. There was a threat to Israel. If we equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the US, then we are in uncharted territory."

By Killing Khamenei, the West Created a Martyr โ€“ and Mainstream Media Is Ignoring the Muslim Backlash Ali Khamenei was not Saddam Hussein or Muammar Gaddafi. Killing him will have religious reverberations throughout the Muslim world for years to come.

"By killing [Khamenei], the US and Israel didnโ€™t just strike Iranโ€™s government. They struck a spiritual leader with transnational religious authority โ€“ and created exactly the kind of martyr that galvanizes movements for generations." - fascinating and important piece by Iran scholar Narges Bajoghli

I want to walk you through why itโ€™s nearly certain Trumpโ€™s Iran War is going to be a massive, deadly, trillion dollar failure. And why you should be furious heโ€™s set us on this path.

This statement by Marco Rubio is a thing of beauty. No notes. It can be taken exactly as is and dropped into Orwell's 1984. I believe the correct Homeric adjective for military reasoning like this is "Hell-kissed."

Get thee to the Smithsonian, war crime-speak.

The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.

Republicans spent 17 months on Benghazi because 4 Americans were killed.

Itโ€™s been 3 days and Trumpโ€™s illegal Iran attack has already gotten 6 American soldiers killed. He promises more will die soon. And Republicans donโ€™t care.

Rubioโ€™s idiotic justification for the โ€œimminent threatโ€โ€”that Israel was going to act anyway, and we couldnโ€™t do anything about it, and we allegedly were going to be hit by Iran in responseโ€”is going over like a lead balloon. The administration could have real problems in Congress later this week.
