Everyone in Iowa remember who led the state during the great nitrat-ing of the water supply? Not being able to water the lawn is the least bothersome aspect but still.
The party that has been in power must pay the consequences. Enough is enough.

It is acknowledged that this is a long running Iowa issue. It goes back for 35-40 years.
I think the problem with that framing is Branstad and Reynolds have dominated politics for decades here. And they presided over the acceleration and did barely anything to stop it.

Wow implicitly threatening a country you preemptively struck.
Remember all the people who claimed the Ukraine Russia war was risky? If the United States uses a nuke in this context, you can kiss non-proliferation goodbye.
The stigma of dropping a nuclear weapon weakens a lot.

Putin after this strike can more credibly make the same threat. Maybe even use a tactical nuclear weapon in Ukraine.
What about Israel? Does their threshold for nuking Iran drop just from this threat? I'd say yes.
What about India and Pakistan? Pakistan will be restrained?

*actually the above is the complaint. This is the order.

Categorical exclusion sounds good and maybe it is because of a viewpoint First Amendment or Fifth Amendment injury claim. But this is more a merits argument and courts sometimes don't allow that on standing.

I can't know for sure. But I think Woodward gambled on mootness as an early exit ramp.
He probably judged standing to take too long to litigate and if Blanche is giving up the fund, then less risk courts expand standing to hurt this admin. with the expansion.
He can wait too

This is next level.
We don't have evidence. We can't prove it. We will lose in court.
But that is the evidence, that is the proof, that our elections are stolen.
This is aliens-are-among-us level stuff.
Amazingly, retweeted by @JTLonsdale.
Bret Weinstein cuts straight to the chase:
"We are going to have an endless battle in which those of us who see what we believe is clear evidence of some kind of election rigging or fraud are faced with indignation from a vast array of people portraying themselves as more rigorous and careful who say, 'Where is your evidence? Where exactly is your evidence that there was something wrong with this election?' And we are gonna be caught in the following predicament.
No piece of evidence is sufficient to establish that case. And the sum total of all of the evidence contains true things and false things. So it is also no good.
So the question is, can you logically deduce that something has gone wrong? I believe you can easily.
Can you prove it? No.
And not being able to prove it means that the election will proceed. It will be validated by all of the structures, including the courts. And that means that those who take on the power that derives from these elections will be the result of whatever process we just went through, whether it was an election that happened to be anomalous through organic means, or it was the result of some kind of fraud or election rigging. That is not an accident.
That is not an accident.
And the point that I wanna make primarily is the primary evidence against elections that look like this being organic is not actually in the trickle of evidence that we are actually able to see, the moment by moment vote count that does something strange during the night when some large tranche of ballots is suddenly counted or something like that.
The evidence is in the structure of how the elections are actually carried out. These elections are designed to allow fraud that cannot be detected and will not be prosecuted. And that's really the thing that we must focus on."
