Poor woman. I hope some of our best & brightest step up to defend her if charges are filed. Maybe a civil suit if they're not.

OFFS! This is sooooo disgusting.
Disheartening as to how meaningless these norms quickly become in the face of self-serving political expediency. Long story, short, targeting civilians is a war crime internationally & under US law & it seems that is what the regime has in mind.
Will fckg Starmer never learn. Once Insane π€‘ is snubbed, coming at back in the groveling position is useless because he's insane & hates weakness. π€‘ is not a politician, he's a wannabe king, so you better think hard about your first move & then, "shield wall".
Yes, I know, but that's not my point. Unfortunately, GOP is going to forego acting on War Powers the war, politically speaking, is not illegal & there's no guidance for military. An order to kill civilians is illegal, so there's clear guidance for military to refuse to obey.
Hmmm? Interesting facts about Mullin. He is a member of Cherokee Nation & well-liked & respected by its leader. Maybe we need to be a little more open-minded & find out more about him.

If Kegsbreath means civilians, then this is an UNLAWFUL ORDER & SHOULDN'T BE FOLLOWED. U.S. military is bound by LOAC thru training doctrine, Uniform Code of Military Justice & official policy. DOD War Manual explicitly prohibits targeting civilians & violations can be prosecuted as war crimes.
No, Kamala was not right on everything; she was wrong on Israel & Gaza.
His ambitions are much bigger than that.

No, it's to do what he always does: help himself.

Fascinating read. Renowned economist Michael Hudson says it is all about oil & US hegemony; ability to control flow of oil to the world allows US to destroy national sovereignty & impose its will.

Dare I ask?
There's no doubt that we women would be better off with Schlapp dead. What a monster!
WTF happened!? Is the law of physics - every action had an equal & opposite reaction- come into play here? No wonder Gen Z women don't want to have anything to do with these guys. We're not waiting for the eventual disappearance of the "Y" chromosome & the new version of "male".
No, Iran does not want this war. No people want to be bombed. But, Iran has no choice because they were fooled 2x by Insane π€‘ π - they won't be fooled again.

Iran has helped Russia in Ukraine. Of course, Russia is going to help a long time ally.
Pink's daughter has inherited her mom's voice. Beautiful!
And to what end? Do they really see themselves as impervious & the coup will succeed? Do they never see a day of reckoning; because the reckoning always comes, one way or another. That's exactly how the Iranians feel now. They won't give up.
This gives you a sense of what terrified Americans in Middle East are going through as a result of the regime's fckg war.
Yes, it's that contract, but she was just grilled by Congress & during the grilling, when asked about the contract & whether Insane π€‘ knew about it, she said he did. This pissed off the π€‘, because the whole contract deal looked really bad.
The reason she was fired is because she told Congress that Insane π€‘ knew about that $220M contract for PR awarded to her friends & associates. A few days later, gone.
Well, well. How long have you been here?
The GOP can't be happy about this.
Believe only the Iranians - so far, they're the only ones telling the truth.
Uh, like the entire population of SD is 924,669 people & she did a terrible job at that, too.
Of course. No one is expecting anything to change. We're not idiots.
She also said Insane π€‘ knew about that absurd contract for $220M for publicity given to firm that came into existence 8 days before contract awarded. The subject of intense questioning by Rep Joe Neguse.

There are a lot of people in the Middle East tonight who are staring at their phones and wondering what tomorrow is going to bring.
Does the GOP really want to plunge the dagger even deeper into its stomach by confirming this cowardly idiot?
