I'd finished a rant recently already and since I haven't finished coffee, this is what I've decided... Of course, I can only support the immediate insistence that Donny shut the fuck up and we get the the fucking Israelis hands off of our congressional kill switch. They all must be compromised so badly (see Whitney Webb's vol I & II book) that our ability to reach anybody as civilians is so fucking lost now, the denizens stick to beating impeachment drums - Good luck with getting them to be kicked over and over.
At this point our home watches RT and independent media pretty damned close to what you do, OB. There is no longer any reason to support giving viewer time to any more of anything else. According to rumble, the only thing we are being corralled to do is go after each other, and I ain't taking that bate anymore. Summer Lee in my PA District may be right, but where are her colleagues. The answer is they are underground and waiting for AiPAC to get them past the election cycle. There is no longer a country here if we don't move these things to the point of hearing the American people, we're gonna doom our grandkids/kids.
Yes for RT - cultural as well as political....They may give one or a biased pov but I absolutely do not miss the jingoism....I also get other news from youtube's variety of English news channels from around the world - European, Asian, southwest Asian (+/-) - a variety of voices....
I especially enjoyed hearing about the strike on the Microsoft-on-human-rights intel facility in Tel Aviv. In a world of American 'Just-Us' some measure of justice.
Well said. I don't think you left out anything that needed to be said on such short notice. I agree that working at the behest of a foreign nation against your own country's interests, constitutes treason. Then there's the other detail of the violation of international law and the US Constitution.
Between ignorant behaviors of US politicians (all levels) to the aggravated political crises it's hard to say which depresses me more.....No comparison between US politicos and their counter parts from Eurasia, South America. Africa.....Even those from the European countries have some degree of geographic / cultural knowledge that is light years ahead of their US counter-parts.
That is an excellent question; sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.
Congress systematically relinquished its authority to declare war to the President throughout the Cold War, then it almost totally gave it up when it agreed to George Bush's War on Terror, whereby ALMOST all the President has to do is declare someone or some country "terrorist," and Hey Presto! the missiles and bombs fly and the troops invade.
That 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force against Al-Qaeda and anyone deemed to be associated with it never included Iran by any reasonable stretch of the imagination. That's why Trump can and should be impeached and removed from office over it.
Personally, I think Congress deferring its power to declare war to the President is unconstitutional in and of itself, but our courts have let it slide. IOW, all three branches of the US Government are corrupt and fucked up.
Israel banning their own people from leaving should have really caused more howling in Israeli society, but the Government is very smart: they know that Israeli society has no staying power, and have to keep the human shields around.
As to the strikes on Iran, you have Trump talking about Regime Change and obliterating Fordow, while everyone else is saying the opposite.
Also a shame about Tulsi, but you can't be in the club without playing their party games and now she is the modern day Colin Powell and her legacy is basically shattered forever.
When it comes back to Trump, I even find his story retelling the events of the strikes to e basically impossible, and if you care to read more about that I put my thoughts about it down here:
treason
impeach this son of a bitch

By next November, any pro-Zionist politician is going to be in very serious trouble. A sea change is coming.
I sincerely hope you're right, across the political spectrum.

The IRGC apparently released a statement that they had imposed 'the blue screen of death' on Microsoft in Israel.
You always make me laugh, even though none of this crap is funny.
Much needed informed, intelligent levity!
Thanks OB! My mind is singing my city was gone ❤️🇵🇸
Fucked up world we're sharing here, kids. Never imagined I'd be cheering for Iranian missiles to find their targets.

Not sure if Tulsi was actually gaslighting or if they were just trying to make her look bad to get her out the door. Hard to say.
Please ‘splain to a Canadian why Congress needs a “war powers act”
WHEN IT’S IN THE CONSTITUTION.

I was so happy when I heard Maersk was no longer shipping weapons' parts to Haifa... And Microsoft and their horrible AI has gone ka-boom? YES!!!
Yah, the thought of Bill Gates' expression when he saw that news gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling.
