  1. The cases are the latest high-profile disputes over #guns to reach #SCOTUS since its conservative majority handed down a landmark ruling in 2022 that expanded #SecondAmendment rights & spawned challenges to firearm laws around the country.

    The case is expected to be heard in the fall.

  3. AYFKM? If I hear one more #Republican talk about how #dangerous #Chicago is, 🤯🤬

    GET RID OF THE #GUNS EEJITS!!

    #SCOTUS will consider striking down #AssaultWeapons #bans, in #Connecticut & the Chicago-area

    A #SupremeCourt that has expanded #gun rights will consider whether bans on #SemiautomaticRifles, often called assault weapons, violate the #SecondAmendment.

  5. A nuclear-powered cruise missile that shoots radiation out the back end as exhaust. Holy fuck humans are stupid! 🤦‍♂️

  7. Sec. #Kegbreath on #Iran's nuclear capabilities:

    "We know exactly what they have".

    I heard this 23 years ago when the #Dubya Administration was adamant #Iraq had #WMDs.

    They claimed to know FOR A FACT that Iraq had "stockpiles of #Yellowcake uranium" and was enriching it using centrifuges (that didn't exist.)

  9. Had to turn off #MtP.

    First guest is Sen. #LadyLindsey Graham. Best known for being the #1 cheerleader for invading #Iraq based on false pretenses, who continued to praise the invasion even after no #WMDs were found and the rational was revealed to be a lie.

    And now he's right back at it with #Iran.🤦‍♂️

  11. The expiration of New START ends the last formal limit on U.S. and Russian nuclear arms, ushering in a more dangerous era marked by destabilizing tactical weapons and growing risks of miscalculation. japantimes.co.jp/commentary/20 #commentary #worldnews #nuclearweapons #russia #us #newstarttreaty #china #northkorea #defense #wmds

  13. If the chance of a spontaneous severe disease outbreak in a Middle East #ConcentrationCamp is f% then the chance of a severe disease outbreak in a unitary #Gaza #ConcentrationCamp run by an Israel state whose ministers have publicicly commited to #Genocide would seem to be far higher.

  15. Surely the Americans are not going to pull the 'imminent threat of WMD' excuse, AGAIN ..... ?? Esp after Netanyahu has been spinning that bullshit narrative since the 90s ....

  17. Very early in the morning of Wednesday 19th March 2003 I caught a coach from from the bus station in the centre of Cambridge to Gatwick airport to take a flight to Poland for a business trip. It's just as well that I had a ticket booked in advance as that meant I could skip past an impressively long queue of American students who also wanted to get on the coach, some of them crying and trying to force their way on because they thought they'd be dead in 45 minutes if they couldn't get a flight back to the USA.

    Gatwick was full, largely of Americans who wanted to flee to "safety". The El-Al checkin was also a bit bonkers, with many security people with machine guns drawn. Overall this was not a pleasant place to be.

    My flight to Poland was on a full aeroplane.

    I did a day's work in Poland and woke up to CNN reporting that the US had started the much anticipated war, having invaded Iraq, with "weapons of mass destruction" being the tenuous reason. Everyone who was paying attention knew that was a lie. The British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, went full in with G W Bush.

    Listen also to weapons inspector Hans Blix's presentation about the absence of WMDs:

  19. #Bacteriologic and #Genomic #Investigation of #Bacillus anthracis Isolated from #WWII Site {Unit 731}, #China

    Source: Emerging Infectious Diseases Journal, fhttps://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30/12/23-1520_article

    Abstract
    Records suggest Bacillus anthracis was used in biowarfare during World War II, but evidence remains limited. We isolated B. anthracis from soil at the remains of a World War II–era laboratory in China. Phenotypic and genomic analyses confirmed the finding, highlighting the value of microbial forensics in biothreat investigation.

  22. Labour 'defence' spokesperson John Healey was particularly incoherent on @BBCRadio4 #Today this morning as he defended Starmer's plot to ramp up UK #WMDs the 'nuclear deterrent' and increase military spending.

    These Labour leaders are some of the worst people.

  24. Basically, if after all this time you came down on the side of “weapons of mass destruction are actually good and just”, not only do I not know how to help you, you might be beyond anyone’s help.

    Your lack of humanity is crashing into your lack of critical-thinking skills.

  27. #SocietiesAreNotStatic —There are no #permanentEnemies, nor #permanentAllies.

    There was a time when #Puritan #America (#English #Protestant, with a disdain toward #monarchy) and #Catholic #France (with an absolute monarchy) were #mortalEnemies.

    That changed in Feb 1778 when #US and France agreed to a #perpetualAlliance.

    In 2003, #GeorgeWBush threw France under the bus, repudiating #French intelligence regarding absence of #WMDs in #Iraq, and lied his way into an unnecessary & illegal war.

  28. I have an uneasy feeling that #Netanyahu's search for #Hamas command-and-control center in #tunnels under #civilian infrastructure will eventually end up finding what #GeorgeWBush set out to find in #Iraq.

    Too early to tell, but they've been searching for those #WMDs for a while now
