A federal judge in DC rules that Kari Lake was not lawfully appointed and that actions she took as the claimed head of USAGM "shall have no force or effect," including last August's RIFs at the Voice of America.
BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.
Trump to Latin American leaders: "I'm not learning your damn language. I don't have time."

This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.
350,000 peoples’ lives hang in the balance. A majority entered the U.S. legally and have never been in violation of any immigration law. They’ve had to go through multiple background checks. And yet they’re hanging on by a thread, even though the situation in Haiti hasn’t gotten any better.

DOOCY: It sounds like the Russians are helping Iran target and attack Americans--
TRUMP: That's an easy problem compared to what we're doing here. What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else.
There is a legal provision in immigration law that someone married to a US citizen can stay in the US while there visa is pending. Immigration officials have long recognized it to allow residency during the wait time. The DHS has just stopped following this part of the law.

Dear Russia,
Iran's fire is making oil prices spike.
Spiking oil prices makes economic problems for us, so we're making it easier for you to sell more oil.
In sum, Iranian military success against us reduces economic pressure on you.
Just, you know, FYI.
Sincerely,
The geniuses leading America
US Treasury Secretary Bessent: To ease the temporary gap of oil around the world, we may unsanction other Russian oil.

White House blocks intelligence report warning of rising US homeland terror threat linked to Iran war
CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.
War on water.

"Believing that Trump was somehow a 'peace president' devoted to American restraint, as some credulous commentators claimed, required ignoring everything he’d said before he was president and everything he’d done after he became president."
The US Agency for Global Media, which is run by Kari Lake, has just failed an audit. The organization's finances are too chaotic even to assess.

Pam Bondi could protect her staff by not making them do unethical shit that might get them disbarred.
But that would make Trump mad, so instead she's planning to take over the state bars.

Hungary seized two Ukrainian cash transport vehicles with $40M, 35M euros and 9kg of gold, detaining seven Oshchadbank staff. FM Sybiha calls it "state terrorism and racketeering." GPS puts the vehicles in central Budapest near a security agency.
Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/
Coffee, straight out of my nose.
So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil
New NY Times ’visual investigation’ strongly suggests that the US fired the missile that hit the Minab school Saturday. (Though is very careful with its language to not say it conclusively.)
