Dire Straits: The Iran War Is Run by Idiots Also: Americans don't care about process. So they will get corruption.

"If it is true that the Israelis sold America a bill of goods and deluded American war planners into believing that killing the ayatollah would lead to regime collapse, then I don’t even know what to say."

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.

Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.

BREAKING: Former President Barack Obama has endorsed YES on Virginia’s April 21 referendum, calling it a “responsible, temporary step” to protect fair representation as several Republican-led states redraw congressional maps mid-decade to gain an advantage. Early voting begins March 6.

A sentencing memo that linked Toronto to J6 and noted Trump shared Obama’s address vanished and was replaced with a watered-down version. A judge is now demanding answers. Erasing the truth isn’t justice. It’s authoritarianism 101: rewrite the record, protect the leader, and intimidate prosecutors.

I renovated the Lincoln Bathroom in the White House. It was renovated in the 1940s in an art deco green tile style, which was totally inappropriate for the Lincoln Era. I did it in black and white polished Statuary marble. This was very appropriate for the time of Abraham Lincoln and, in fact, could be the marble that was originally there!

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

A Very, Very Expensive Way to Reduce Crime The Trump administration’s National Guard deployments are highly inefficient.

The National Guard’s mostly quiet walks through Washington, D.C., are expected to cost a little more than $200 million, USA Today reported, and that’s the figure just for the D.C. National Guard, not for the eight states that have sent troops.

Literally saying if you don't pay fealty, you don't get YOUR OWN TAX MONEY BACK. You really couldn't write a bigger advertisement for this thing.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Certiorari "before judgment" is how #SCOTUS takes up a full appeal *before* the intermediate federal courts have heard it.

It used to be exceedingly rare. For instance, there wasn't a *single* grant of such expedited review b/w August 2004 & February 2019.

This is the *23rd* such grant since then.
