Will Ogles be censured for his comments?

Because it's quite hard to read this as anything but a call for the expulsion (or worse) of 4.5 million people on the basis of their religion.

NEW: After Gov Jared Polis (D) told me that Tina Peters must show contrition to gain clemency, an attorney for Peters now says she "has remorse."

Peters has long maintained she did "nothing wrong" in leading a breach of Colorado's voting systems and is a political prisoner.

U.S. and Iran Predicted a Very Different War Than the One Now Being Waged Economic disruption stemming from the conflict is hurting countries worldwideβ€”while providing a windfall to Russia.

Each side in the Iran war seems to have miscalculated how the other would behave, triggering an ever-expanding conflict with few clear ways out in the foreseeable future.

2. The Tomahawk is manufactured by only one company, Raytheon, and if the Islamic Republic possesses them, it means they either obtained them illegally β€” which would be a scandal of epic proportions β€” or purchased them under a State Department export license, which has not happened.

1. Asked about the girls’ school missile attack in Iran, Trump claimed that the Islamic Republic of Iran also has Tomahawk missiles and that it could have been one of theirs.

Video appears to show U.S. cruise missile striking Iranian school compound The seven-second video was released by Iranian state media and directly contradicts statements made by President Trump, who said Iran was responsible for the strike.

The Iranian girls’ school was hit by a US tomahawk cruise missile. NPR has confirmed the footage.

Polling right now is pretty remarkably consistent in putting support for US attack on Iran in the low-mid '40s.

... out there is that it would actually, in the end, get an outcome. And I find it very hard to see that based on actual past experience.... the Democrats contemplated doing this ... and they opted against it because they examined it in the same way that we're examining it"

I live next to a strategic nuclear target In Isfahan, where strikes target one of Iran’s key nuclear sites, residents still try to go to work, play video games, and grocery shop as explosions shake their windows.

Good morning to readers. Oil prices have surpassed $100 per barrel (+40% compared to pre-war).

War near Iran’s nuclear sites hits Isfahan. Explosions shake Ali’s windows, but he still goes to work, finishing his PhD. Life carries on near one of Iran’s key nuclear facilities.

The correct terms for this whole process are political purges and illegal rescission.

But Trump officials (including Elon Musk) say β€œefficiency” and β€œprivate sector” and β€œwaste, fraud, abuse,” and a lot of peopleβ€”including much of the pressβ€”buy it. At least enough to miss the unsubtle big picture.

Nice job by him maximizing his value on the open market. Very fun, versatile player who plays with tremendous energy.

But $30M per year is an easy no for the Eagles, given their needs, roster, financial situation.
