Ken Paxton has been indicted for securities fraud. Impeached by the Texas House with majority Republican support. His whistleblower staffers reported him to the FBI, he fired them, a judge found he violated the Whistleblower Act, and Texas paid those staffers $6.6 million. His wife filed for divorce on, quote, "biblical grounds" - which is the Baptist way of saying Ken was at it again. This year he also ordered Texas public schools to prove they are displaying the Ten Commandments in their classrooms. Trump endorsed him anyway. Over a 23-year incumbent senator who tried to rename a highway after Trump in a last-ditch attempt to secure the nod. It did not work. Cook Political Report has already moved Texas into a fully competitive race if Paxton wins Tuesday. A Presbyterian seminarian running on faith and economic populism could be the first Democrat elected to the Texas Senate since 1988. A Republican strategist in the Atlantic piece described the situation as "deep kimchi." He was being diplomatic.

In other words, the war is over, we're stumbling toward some version of the JCPOA, America is out billions of dollars and lots of weapons that we didn't need to waste, and the United States is now weaker and Iran in a strategically stronger position. And for what?

Mike Pompeo has no idea what the fuck he’s talking about. He should shut his stupid mouth and leave the real work to the professionals. He’s not read into anything that’s happening, so how would he know.

Iran deal so far: • $25B in frozen Iranian assets released • U.S. blockade ends • Iran will “allow” passage, but remain in control of the Strait • Iran’s nuclear program will not be part of the agreement. This basically meets all of Iran's demands.

Iran state media Fars (which is close to the Revolutionary Guard) says Trump's claim on Truth Social about returning the Strait of Hormuz to its previous state is untrue. "According to the latest text exchanged, in the event of a possible agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will continue to be under Iranian management."

Russians continue to bomb evangelical churches in Ukraine. This time in the city of Balakliya, Kharkiv region, the Church "Light of the Gospel.”
