Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman spoke to President Trump on Saturday and expressed concern over his plans for massive new strikes against Iran, according to two U.S. officials and a third source with knowledge of the call.

Why it matters: Trump is seriously considering attacking Iranian energy targets in the coming days in response to Iran's missile strike on a U.S. base in Jordan and its continued disruption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. He has yet to issue final orders. read more

We Now Have the Leading Charge in Trump's Next Impeachment

Why is the president willing to withdraw Todd Blanche's nomination? The answer constitutes a blatant high crime and misdemeanor.

One can sense that John Cornyn and Thom Tillis, the two outgoing Republican senators who have suddenly developed the backbone to maybe vote against the attorney general nominee now that they're not facing their voters again, represent a far more broadly (if privately) held view in the Senate GOP that the man is manifestly unqualified.

- I enumerated facts,

You did no such thing; you repeated several tired old rwing non-sequiturs (look it up, dumbass).

You come from one of the most Corrupt Countries in the World where... "a state-directed crony capitalism operating under a communist political facade.

The ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) maintains absolute political control while the economy operates on free-market principles, allowing a politically connected elite to amass immense private wealth while utilizing communist rhetoric."

In this country, the same sort of crony capitalism operates under a democratic republic political facade, which you are way too blind to see.

This country isn't quite as deadly Authoritarian as the one you say you are planning to run home too, but it's on it's way there now with Trump.

But hey, you come from a long line of cowards who accept and promote such corruption, so no wonder you prefer Paxton and Trump to democratic reformers like Talarico.
