#Alabama lawmakers approved a plan Friday for new #US #House #primaries if courts allow the state to use different congressional districts in this year’s elections, sending the #legislation to #Republican Gov. Kay Ivey.
The move came the same day that the #Virginia Supreme Court dealt a major setback to #Democrats by overturning a #redistricting plan that could have helped Democrats win as many as 4 additional House seats.

#Virginia state Supreme Court strikes down #Democrats' redrawn #US #House maps, giving #Republicans win
The court ruled 4-3 that the state’s Democratic-led legislature violated procedural requirements when it placed the constitutional amendment on the ballot to authorize the mid-decade #redistricting. #Voters approved the amendment April 21, but the court’s ruling renders the results of that #vote meaningless.
#US forces fired on & disabled 2 Iranian #oil tankers on Friday after exchanging fire with #Iran forces in the #StraitOfHormuz overnight. The #UAE, meanwhile, reported another Iranian missile & drone attack.
The attacks cast more doubt on a tenuous month-old “ceasefire” that the US has insisted is still in effect. The #Trump admin is awaiting an Iranian response to its latest proposal for a deal to end the #war, reopen the strait & roll back Iran’s #nuclear program.

Their interest centered on…selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or #SSRIs, such as #Zoloft, #Prozac & #Lexapro, which have been available in the US for decades….
So much for the “ceasefire” talks going well. Not that I believe anything from this admin.

The US Court of International Trade [#CIT] ruled in favor of #SmallBusinesses that challenged the tariffs, which took effect on February 24. The ruling was 2-1, with one judge saying it was premature to grant victory to the small business plaintiffs.

The Trump admin’s approach to the #IranWar over the past 24 hrs has pinballed from declarations that a tenuous ceasefire was holding & military operations were over to new threats of bombing the Islamic Republic.

The #US #military fired on an Iranian #oil tanker Wednesday as #Trump seeks to pressure #Iran into accepting a deal to end the #war.
A fighter jet shot out the rudder of the tanker in the Gulf of Oman as it tried to breach the US #blockade of Iran’s ports, #CENTCOM posted.
The attack occurred as Iran & the US are supposedly in a ceasefire. Trump threatened Tehran with a new wave of bombing if a deal is not reached that includes opening the critical #StraitOfHormuz.
#Trump posted on social media that the war with #Iran could soon end & #oil & natural #gas shipments could restart. But that all depends on Iran accepting a reported agreement that Trump did not detail.
“If they don’t agree, the bombing starts,” Trump wrote.

There is no #ceasefire, stop pretending there is.
#Iran warns #US the fight over #StraitOfHormuz hasn’t ‘begun yet’
#Trump warned Iranian forces would be “blown off the face of the Earth” if they targeted US ships.
Trump made similar threats before—including posting that “a whole civilization will die”—but this time, they were accompanied by military action. Trump posted Monday afternoon that the military “shot down” 7 Iranian boats in the strait.

The #IRGC said NO commercial vessel or tanker had crossed the Strait of Hormuz in the past few hours.
The IRGC called claims by US officials "baseless & complete lies."
Earlier Monday, US #CENTCOM said 2 US flagged merchant vessels had crossed thru the strait.

#CENTCOM has denied claims from Iranian state media that a US vessel was struck by Iranian missiles near the #StraitOfHormuz.
“No US Navy ships have been struck,” CENTCOM posted on X.
State news agency IRNA had reported, citing a military statement, that “following a firm & rapid warning by its navy, the entry of what it described as US & Israeli enemy destroyers into the Strait of Hormuz was prevented.”

Inside the #Trump #SpiritAirlines Hail Mary #Fail
Winding down a major #US #airline is a complicated business. Doing so when a POTUS hints it could be saved adds an extra layer of complexity.
Wracked with financial trouble, Spirit Airlines filed for bankruptcy for the 2nd time in Aug 2025. Months later, Trump’s war with #Iran had driven up #EnergyCosts & made its financial position even more untenable, putting it on the brink of closure.

#Trump is withdrawing 5k troops from #Germany
The #US is withdrawing 5k troops from Germany, the #Pentagon announced Friday, in a rebuke to the close #NATO ally amid a widening rift between Trump & #Europe over the #Iran #war.
Trump had threatened a drawdown in forces earlier this week after sparring with German Chancellor Friedrich #Merz, who said the Iranians were humiliating the US in talks to end the 2-month-old war.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has a longstanding fascination with the Crusades.
That’s right, the Crusades: the series of late 11th to 13th century medieval wars in which Europeans fought to control the Holy Land. He has tattoos that reference the Crusades, something that actually came up in his confirmation hearing in 2025. And his 2020 book is titled American Crusade.
The final chapter is titled “Make the Crusade Great Again.”

#SCOTUS kills #VotingRights
The Supreme Court’s decision to upend a key provision of the #VotingRightsAct [#VRA] has plunged the nation into a dizzying new era of partisan conflict, most likely ushering in a forever #redistricting war that could produce fewer competitive seats in #Congress & further #polarize #US politics.

In America, that would have to include 3/4 of the Supreme Court, 3/4 of Congress, and all of the Republican party, or it would return, with more money and power than ever before. We have no checks and balances. The 21st century's curtain fell. The masks are off. We are ruled over by an oligarchy. A fascist nation to our core. Anything else was forced upon the fascists, who cannot lose the long game here, for they control money. Democrats are a weakling opposition party.
Our leaders are immoral. Our opposition is inept. Our people are awash in digitized lies. Truth is drowning.
Money, child rape, and power. The New American Century, as crafted by the big money from the old American century.

Reuters uncovered a broader‑than‑previously known Trump administration effort to gain federal control over elections, historically run locally, in at least eight states – using investigations, raids and demands for access to balloting systems and voter ID.
