Giving billionaires and corporations the green light to buy our elections. Making it easier for polluters to destroy the planet. Stripping millions of reproductive freedom. Granting presidents immunity. Gutting the protections of the Voting Rights Act. The shame of the John Roberts court.

There is no way for America to save face in Iran. Backing down will be humiliating. China is moving oil through the American “blockade” and there is nothing the US can do but bluster and posture. International embarrassment. Spectacular weakness and stupidity.

Iranian outlet Tasnim is reporting that Iran never requested in-person negotiations with the U.S., directly disputing claims made by Karoline Leavitt. According to the report, Iran has actually rejected U.S. requests for talks due to what it calls “excessive demands.” See?

We need a law that states if a member of Congress resigns while under investigation by an Ethics body, the investigation will continue, the results will be made public, and any warranted criminal referrals issued. Resigning should not stop justice.
