Reiterating that these are reports and not confirmed yet, although I have very low confidence that these aren’t real…

🇺🇸- Rep. Nancy Mace:

“Pam Bondi cannot escape accountability simply because she no longer holds the office of Attorney General. Our motion to subpoena Pam Bondi, which was passed by the Oversight Committee, was for Bondi by name, not by title. She will still have to appear before the Oversight Committee for a sworn deposition. The American people deserve answers, and we expect her to appear as soon as a new date is set.”

🇺🇸- DeCarlos Brown Jr, the creature who killed Iryna Zarutska, has been found incapable to proceed on the murder charge.

🇺🇸- Vance:

“Until yesterday, I didn't even know that Zelensky had declared his intention to send soldiers to the Prime Minister's residence. Viktor told me about it, and then I checked the information. I almost couldn't believe it was true, but it really is. This is completely scandalous. It should never happen that a foreign head of government or state threatens the head of government of an allied country. This is absurd. This is unacceptable”

🇮🇷🇦🇪- Oil Refinery in Al-Fujairah hit by Iranian missiles.

🇺🇸🇮🇷- Reports starting to come in from Regime-Affiliated news that Iran is being bombed by the U.S.

waiting for footage to be released.

Iranian military sources are accusing the UAE of attacking Iranian oil depots in Lavan Island today Mirage 2000 jets were reportedly spotted carrying out the strikes the UAE airforce the only Gulf states that fields this type of aircraft.
(If confirmed, this could significantly widen the conflict in the Gulf.)

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷🇦🇪- Strikes reported near Isfahan and Karaj

here is my take:

• Trump doesn’t have the authority (only Congress), but thank goodness our Congress has rubber stamped away most of their Legislative checks and balance on the Executive branch over the last 6 decades.

• Thank goodness the checks and balances our Founders had envisioned don’t really exist anymore. Or at best, the checks our Founders gave on the Executive are greatly diminished, and the scales of power between the three branches they prescribed is unbalanced.

• So, Trump might just actually do it, disrupt a whole lot of shit with it, and we will have to wait for it to go through the Judiciary until the Supreme Court rules that the President doesn’t have that authority.

• Consequences:
-NATO unity is further undermined
-Our Allies’ trust in us is eroded further
-America’s enemies will continue to doubt our deterrence capability (which is what we use to run the world)

🇮🇱🇵🇸- Al Jazeera correspondent Mohammed Wishah was killed earlier in an Israeli Airstrike on the Gaza Strip.

🇺🇸- Karoline Leavitt responds to the “10 Point Plan” that Iranian Media claims the U.S. accepted.

Which country breached Tehran's airspace today??

Reuters: The U.S. has over 50,000 troops deployed across the Middle East, with numbers continuing to rise. Officials say the deployment of thousands of Marines from San Diego to the region is ongoing for now.

🇺🇸- Vance:

“I think this comes from a legitimate misunderstanding. I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon and it just didn't. We never made that promise. The Israelis, as I understand it, have actually offered to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful.
That's not because that is part of the ceasefire. I think that's the Israelis try to set up us up for success and we'll, of course, see how that unfolds in the next few days."
