Iranian drones crashed at Nakhchivan Airport in Azerbaijan. One hit a terminal, others fell elsewhere. Following the attacks, Iran’s ambassador Mojtaba Dermichilu was summoned to Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry

Pathetic coward, tries to talk like he’s ex-military (slang, etc) but of course never served.

Oh, and he’s an idiot, too.

RFK Jr has 'unreviewable' authority to reshape vaccine policy, DOJ lawyer tells judge A lawyer for the Trump administration told a judge on Wednesday that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has such broad authority over vaccine policy that he could even ​scrap re...

DOJ argued RFK Jr. has "unreviewable" power to swap vaccines for "natural" measles? 🤡

Scientists and the AAP beg to differ! Public health isn't an opportunity for Bobby's psychotic fan fic dreams.

Truly, when did "trust the science" turn into "trust whatever the hell 🧠🪱 dreamed up last night"? 🥴

Happy to help any time.

Fetterman may as well join the GOP at this point.

Got it. There's plenty of funding to send troops into harm’s way, but not to take care of their health afterwards. This is shameful.

The second, final Supreme Court decision is Galette v. NJ Transit. Per Sotomayor's unanimous opinion, NJ Transit is NOT an arm of NJ and thus NOT entitled to sovereign immunity.

This is a very good ruling that allows civil suits against NJ Transit! I'm surprised www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Somehow it’s made worse by having to operate demonically (oops, my bad?) complicated machine BEFORE HAVING COFFEE.

It’s rude.
It’s way too challenging.
It’s a vicious circle.

Kristi may have soared too close to the sun this go round but everyone working the late shift in a massage parlor next to the methadone clinic out by the airport in ‘the other Branson’ at least knows it’s possible now and that’s not nothing.

Yeah this is quite literally what they’ve been preparing for for over a decade. This is part of why actual military experts have said war with Iran will go badly.

Locals report a large fire growing at the Bahrain Petroleum Company refinery.

Bahrain’s Interior Ministry confirmed that a refinery in the Maameer area was attacked.

Appears Iran fired a large salvo of ballistic missiles in last hour.

I know I’ve been a bit quiet the last few days so this is me letting you know I’m ok and I’m still here, I just need a bit to breathe. But friendly PSA: if you know a GWOT vet, or a vet in general, maybe check in on them and make sure they’re ok. They could probably use it right now. Hang in there ✊

Obama calls on Virginians to vote for redistricting in special election “Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy, but right now they are under threat,” Obama said.

Wow.

Is there any footage with mystery man’s face in it?

Let’s crowdsource an ID.

Bari Weiss Is Going Full ‘Propaganda-Palooza’ With the Iran War The CBS News war coverage is going exactly as we thought it would. Plus, Gayle King goes 'all in' on Weiss, while CNN commentator Scott Jennings sucks up to her.

NEW from me:

"This is Bari’s hardline Zionist wet dream come true,” a CBS News insider snarked to Zeteo.

The Iran War offered Bari Weiss the perfect opportunity to push her pro-Israel agenda, with one staffer calling this week "Propaganda-palooza."

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

Rules of engagement aren’t for the enemy. They’re for you. They’re for your soldiers when they’re captured or wounded. They’re for your civilians when they’re in range of the enemy. They’re for your allies, to reassure.

In a 15-year David v. Goliath legal battle, homeowners who fell victim to predatory lenders finally prevailed when SCOTUS rejected the bank’s appeal.

I’m joined by the plaintiffs’ lawyers and they discuss why this decision is so important for communities of color.

It's still mind-boggling to me that anyone in a position of power and publicity would talk like this. He sounds like an edgy dudebro, not a government official. What a dunce.

At some point we will have a conversation about the bogus claim that running a financially successful company equips you for leadership more broadly.
