Operation Epic Quagmire: Hormuz toll booth, no win situation --
Trump handed the Iranian regime a weapon with FAR greater utility than a nuke. He legitimized the weaponization of the Strait of Hormuz and turning it into a toll booth to demand reparations payments anytime they want. A nuke is useless in comparison because the moment you use it, you’re toast.

If the U.S. can’t win. And won’t admit that it lost. That leaves ongoing, lower-level hostilities, with dueling blockades, the occasional tanker explosion, and expensive U.S. military operations to protect a shipping corridor, until the unsustainably of all that becomes too much to bear.

Whiskey Pete Hegseth's impeachment is coming for "only following orders" --
Yeah, that's how you prosecute war crimes, Whiskey Pete. You start with the people who ordered soldiers to violate the law and then you work your way down the chain of command to prosecute the ones who pulled the trigger. So glad you're starting to get how this works. Enjoy jail!

NEW: President Trump, with the clock ticking and congressional investigators closing in, plans to govern even more imperially, hell-bent on stretching executive power, targeting enemies, pardoning allies, and daring the courts and Congress to slow him down.

Imperative: If and when Trump treats any/all oversight like a dead letter, Dems will have to wield the spending power aggressively to force Trump/WH to comply. @brianbeutler.bsky.social and I went long on all the tactics Dems can deploy to boost Congress's power: newrepublic.com/article/2177...

Schumer's using the lame duck to rush a GOP bill opposed by Jeffries, most of the incoming Dems, NAACP, Earthjustice, Sierra Club, ACLU, Detention Watch Network, and Public Citizen. It's an inexcusable break with coalition, party, and caucus. It's incompatible with him remaining in Dem leadership.

Sen. Josh."The Runner" Hawley's hypocritical nonsense --
A fast from 12 to 1 isn't a sacrifice; it's just a late lunch. Conservative Christians *really* don't like to be inconvenienced--especially by Jesus's commands not to judge, retaliate, deprive the poor, or pray in public.
