Donald Trump promised the war in Iran would end with unconditional surrender. But he never said which country would do the surrendering.

The main paragraph in the new Comey indictment from Ellis Boyle and Matthew Petracca is one of the most embarrassing and humiliating passages of legal text I've ever read

Then why did the majority of the counties in the state reject it?

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia— AOC: Wah wah wah. We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. Republicans have fought for partisan gerrymanders across the United States of America. And these are the rules that they have set. And so if the Republican Party wanted to start this, they did this in North Carolina. They drew out three Democratic members of Congress in North Carolina. They did it in Texas. What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over, doesn’t fight, and takes everything sitting down. And what they’re mad at right now is that we are here in a new day. And we have been asking the Democratic Party to stand up and fight, and now they did—and now the Republican Party doesn’t like the fact that they are fighting against someone who actually will stand up for the American people. So if Republicans decide that they would like to revisit a ban on partisan gerrymandering, I welcome them. We have the bill right here to end this all today. But they don’t want to, because they like pursuing and continuing to enact an unfair electoral landscape. And so we have an obligation to defend ourselves.

Uh, ok re Pat but John Wooden would like a word
Umm, the greatest women’s coach in history is definitely not Geno! Pat Summitt is, was and always will be the greatest NCAA basketball coach(both men and women) of all time! Facts are important.

Going to war with a country, then immediately floating the idea of lifting sanctions on its oil to prevent your own economic collapse, is the definition of strategic failure

We are apparently in the phase of foreign policy where it’s “war” when you want to sound tough and “not war” when you want to avoid responsibility.

Recuerdan la noticia de ayer en la que EEUU sacó pecho porque un submarino suyo hundió un barco iraní? pues resulta que ese barco ni siquiera estaba armado porque venia de un evento protocolario en la India en donde había sido invitado y una de las condiciones era que no estuviese armado. Incluso los tripulantes del barco que eran mas de 180, desfilaron en Visakhapatnam el 19 de febrero, ahora todos están muertos en el fondo del mar porque EEUU decidió asesinarlos estando totalmente indefensos y a mas de 3.000 Km de la zona de guerra. Y aunque no lo crean, eso no es todo, sino que la flota de EEUU también había sido invitada a dicho evento pero a ultima hora canceló, porque ya habían planificado y sabían que iban a hacer lo que finalmente hicieron. Y si creían que eso era todo, claro que no. Resulta que hubo supervivientes y heridos después del ataque, pero EEUU no ayudo a NINGUNO dejándolos morir en el mar y violando todos los principios, normas y leyes internacionales marítimas. Si me lo preguntan, UNA CANALLADA Ahí tienen al "mejor" ejercito del mundo y también se esta criticando fuertemente a la India porque no hicieron nada para ayudar o escoltarlos.
