ABOLISH SELECTIVE SERVICE? 🚫 A bipartisan group of senators introduced legislation to abolish the government agency that keeps a list of men eligible for the military draft. The senators say the Selective Service System is costly and a relic of the past, operating with a budget of $31 million per year to prepare for a draft that has not occurred since 1973.

WOW! @Theintercept reviewed more than 12000 print articles and 5000 TV segments to check for biases on Israel-Palestine. I thought it would be bad. I had no idea it was THIS bad. No wonder Gaza killed what little credibility mianstream media had. In NYT, Israel's right to defend itself was invoked 99 times. Only once for Palestine. On CNN and MSNBC, it was invoked 755 times for Israel. But only 8 times for Palestine. Emotive words such as slaughter and massacre were used frequently when Israelis had been killed. They were NEVER used in print when Palestinians were killed. In Ukraine, 262 children were killed in the war, and it was mentioned 4223 times. In Palestine, more than 10,000 children were killed, but it was mentioned only 3632. The full article is in the subtweet. It's a MUST READ:

@SpacemanStoned It genuinely seems that you are ignorant of the phase of fighting ISIS, especially in 2014. Do you want me to teach you our history?

With the fall of the Assad regime, and the dismantling of the SDF structure and its practices in northeastern Syria over the past years, it has become very clear that ISIS operations have significantly declined across Syria. This is just one simple piece of evidence among thousands showing that the new Syrian state is the most capable actor in confronting these extremist organizations, backed by more than 11 years of experience and a deep understanding of the mindset of radical groups.

@bonzerbarry Lol, dumbasses cheer while this has always been Iran's position. If it changed, it was due to the attack by Trump.

China will only shoot themselves in the foot if they sell out Iran for $30 billion.

⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️American-Chinese negotiations and the Russian-Ukrainian settlement Bloomberg (USA). “The US and China are discussing a potential scheme in which each country will determine a list of goods worth about $30 billion, the duties on which can be reduced without threatening national security interests, Reuters reports, citing four unnamed sources familiar with the Trump administration's goals. The White House did not respond to a request to comment on the report. Rubio also pointed out in an interview with Fox News that the US will insist that China help end the war in Iran, as negotiations on a peace agreement continue to worry the White House. “We hope to convince them to play a more active role and make Iran give up what they are currently doing in the Persian Gulf,” Rubio said, adding that “solving this problem” is in China's interests due to Asia's strong energy dependence on the region.” Financial Times (Britain). “Russia and Ukraine believe that there is little prospect of resuming peace negotiations with US mediation even after the end of the war in the Middle East, sources familiar with the positions of both sides say. According to them, Vladimir Putin is aiming to seize more Ukrainian territory by force and intends to expand the list of demands once Russia establishes control over Donbass, a key region. In Kiev, meanwhile, they believe that Ukraine is no longer so vulnerable to US pressure to conclude a quick and unfavorable agreement, as Russia's advance has been halted and drone strikes in the deep rear are causing extensive damage. Donald Trump stated after a brief ceasefire last week that 'we are getting closer and closer every day' to an agreement, but neither side sees much sense in continuing the negotiations, sources said.” Al Hadath (Iraq). “The statement by the UK and nine other European countries about the creation of a joint naval force for immediate deployment in the Baltic and North Seas cannot be considered just a temporary defensive measure. It rather indicates Europe's transition to a new format of interaction with Russia. At this stage, the likelihood of conflict is increasingly perceived as a real, not a remote prospect. Therefore, they are beginning to prepare for it in advance - at the level of technology, logistics and organization of forces. The situation is further complicated by mutual escalation around the Suwalki Corridor, which is considered one of the most vulnerable points in Europe. This narrow strip between Poland and Lithuania connects the Kaliningrad region with Belarus. It is often seen as a possible hotbed of tension between Russia and NATO.” @sashakots

Senator Patty Murray@PattyMurray·
I asked Director Patel to pass on my thanks for FBI's work stopping a crook who scammed Medicare out of $205 million. He obliged. Only problem? Trump pardoned that scammer. So which is it? Should the FBI keep uncovering fraud, or should Trump keep pardoning these crooks?
