>CENTCOM said helicopters from the USS Eisenhower and Gravely responded to the Maersk Hangzhou’s distress call, the second in less than 24 hours, and were fired on by the Houthi boats. >“The U.S. Navy helicopters returned fire in self-defense, sinking three of the four small boats, and killing the crews. The fourth boat fled the area,” the statement said, adding that there was “no damage to U.S. personnel or equipment.” If you're a Houthi rebel, firing on a US military craft is really not a very smart move

>ex-officials and other experts say Trump’s campaign and social media bashing of the four sets of criminal charges – echoed in ways by his lawyers’ court briefs – are actually a hodgepodge of conspiracy theories and very tenuous legal claims, laced with Trump’s narcissism and authoritarian impulses aimed at delaying his trials or quashing the charges.

>Majority in new poll say Jan. 6 was attack on democracy that should never be forgotten I hope this one's right—at least a bit. It's been incredibly depressing over the years to hear the conservatives I know continue to hold animosity over things like dijon mustard or a tan suit but are like, "January Sixth? No biggie, fuckin' move on already!" Unfortunately, those numbers are still way too close considering he went on national television and incited an attempt to overthrow the duly elected government. This shouldn't be up for debate at all: he did it on live television:: >In the poll, 55 percent of respondents said the Capitol riot was an “attack on democracy that should never be forgotten.” Forty-three percent said that “too much is being made” of the riot and that it is “time to move on.”

Absolutely wild to me that this isn’t 90-95% of people. When Trumpers and other republicans were watching TV on Jan 6, they had to believe something terrible was happening at the time, right? This is supposed to be the party that’s big on symbolism and patriotism. All it took was some media spin for it to go from clear insurrection to friendly tour through a monument in their eyes.

Literally everyone who planned, promoted, and engaged in the attack should be seen as traitors to their country and treated as such. the fact that this is up for debate is appalling and the effort to whitewash the whole thing is just as bad at the attack itself. It was on camera in full public view and I think every American should take a hard look at anyone who would try to dismiss, mislead, or justify such an attack. Not only is it in American, but it sets the stage for it to happen again.

Wouldn't "absolute immunity" mean that Biden could have Trump brought to the Rose Garden for summary public execution? And couldn't Biden go down the street to the Supreme Court and do the same there? If this sounds scary...just remember that this is exactly what Donald Trump would do. I hope Jack Smith argues to the Supreme court using those exact words.

Seriously, just the fact that they're trying to claim he has some sort of total immunity should be proof enough that even his own lawyers are admitting he's guilty. Otherwise there would be no need for an immunity claim to begin with, since there would have been no crime to be immunized for.

Every US civics/government lesson I ever had in school, starting in like 3rd grade, started with the one concept above all the others: that our system of government is built to ensure that no one, including specifically the president, is above the law. It was the one thing that was consistently taught every single time a discussion about a properly functioning democracy was had. I don't know how any lawyer would ever agree to even entertain this argument behind closed doors, let alone try to argue it in court - the entire concept is ludicrous.

This breaks my brain. There are thousands of hours of video and thousands of messages sent between the people organizing and participating. There is no ambiguity about the events of the day. There was a massive months-long investigation committee that took testimony from dozens and dozens of highly relevant witnesses and participants. People can differ about semantics if they want to be obtuse but this was one of the most fully recorded events in modern history.

Elections effectively stolen*: 2016 when Republican states purged some 6,000,000 registered voters a tiny fraction of whom would have turned the election. Elections not stolen: 1960 when Richard Nixon decided not to pursue a recount after looking deeply into the numbers. 2020 when the people booted Donald Trump out of power. *among others

Republicans should not be commenting on how democrats feel about immigration, especially progressives. 1. Bussing those Migrants is inhumane and cruel. 2. Of course there's funding shortfalls since none of these cities expected this idiot to bus migrants into their cities. 3. Everyone providing input to this article is basically a republican 4. The reason Biden is willing to work with the Senate on a bipartisan immigration bill is likely because republicans are holding Ukraine and Israel funding hostage. The article even mentions this so I'm not sure how they use that as evidence that democrats are shifting stance. Or did democrats shift their stance on work requirements for SNAP too just because republicans were going to cause the United States to default on our debt if they didn't agree?

The op-ed starts with.... >In the immediate aftermath of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, there seemed at least a slim chance that the Republican Party would finally come to its senses. The rioters that former President Donald Trump had urged toward Congress to threaten the electoral vote counting had left GOP stalwarts shaken. It was a window for finally rejecting Trump and the lies he’d been peddling about widespread fraud in the 2020 election against Joe Biden. But that window quickly closed as Republicans shifted into a defensive stance. ​ So here is what went down (broadly) See the neocons (most having had to fake alliance with maga to get reelected/elected) were totally down for denouncing Trump/maga BUT before they made their official push they all went back to their districts/states. Most assumed their constituent would swarm them with words of concern and asking for tales of how they survived such a horrifying attack. INSTEAD what most of those maga-faking neocons got were variations of the question "Did them RINOs/Neocons get the message that we the (rightwing) voters are fed up/hate them and want them to GTFO of our Party?" Lesson to be learned- when you see the neocons tuck tail and begin distancing themselves before circling the wagons, well that means behind closed doors maga won yet another round.
