The United Arab Emirates said for the first time on Saturday that the co-pilot who attacked the captain of a flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv had tried to carry out a “terrorist operation,” as officials worked to uncover the full scope of his motives. Here is what to know about the pilots.

Who Were the Pilots on the FlyDubai Flight?
The co-pilot’s embrace of extreme Islamist views prompted Omani officials to scrutinize him, according to two people briefed on the investigation.

Justice Alito is confusing court reform with attacking the court. Many of us simply want the Court to be better. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Supreme Court expansion is ‘a concerted effort to intimidate the court,' Justice Alito says
Despite Americans' eroding trust in the Supreme Court, Alito says he's not discussed growing calls for expanding the court and setting term limits.

It’s really that simple. His ego and megalomania tie everything together—the war, the tariffs, the economy, affordability, the grift, the corruption, and his attempts to glorify himself with shiny objects large and small.
Terry Moran: The reason Republicans are looking at a grim midterms is because the president clearly doesn’t give a damn about the real problems people are facing across the country, across the great political divide.

All he cares about is himself, his money, and his own glorification.

Well, duh. Doctors get reimbursed by insurance providers or by patients directly. Universal healthcare does not require doctors to provide their services free of charge, it reimburses them for their services without requiring out-of-pocket from patients.
