The move… is likely to come as a relief to US prisoner’s #families & supporters, many of whom have waited several years for their return…. It’s also expected to come under harsh criticism from #Republicans in #Congress opposed to any agreement… (to) release of frozen Iranian funds….
The deal marks a major breakthrough for the longtime adversaries who remain at loggerheads over a range of issues, including the rapid expansion of #Tehran’s #nuclear program & Iran’s harsh crackdown on #dissent.

TRUMP CRIME FAMILY
Meadows Desperation!
Following a ruling by Jones that denied Mark Meadows’s attempt to move his case, which stems from his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia, to federal court, lawyers for the former White House chief of staff filed an appeal with the 11th Circuit on Monday.

#GOP is going to hammer #JoeBiden over this prisoner swap deal with #Iran 🇮🇷. #Biden was already criticized for the prisoner swap deal with #Russia 🇷🇺.
I expect #Republicans to make this a talking point against #Democrats for an entire year (I know #Trump will).

Dear Reader,
Have you ever seen Aure rolling on the floor with laughter - you've seen her now!
Trump formally asks judge in federal election meddling case to recuse herself
The filing contends that Judge Tanya Chutkan should step aside because of previous comments she made suggesting Trump should be charged in connection with Jan. 6.

The fundamentals of the 2024 campaign are still taking shape, but one thing is already clear: A flurry of #court actions might cost #Republicans the #House majority.
In the past 9 days, #state & #federal judges threw out 2 #CongressionalMaps — & helped #Democrats avoid a worst-case scenario in Ohio — kicking off an unusually busy #redistricting calendar heading into the #election year.

"Republicans politicized the courts because the courts stood in the way of their racist, anti-gay, forced-birth agenda. If Democrats refuse to fight back, that agenda will be the law of the land, and elections will become the political force that doesn’t really matter."

Variant of the “thoughts and prayers” meme. I should name my cats #Chiropractic and Moderate #Republicans.
"[Judge] Jones cleverly pointed out:
“Assuming jurisdiction over this criminal prosecution would frustrate the purpose of federal officer removal when the state charges allege — not state interference with constitutionally protected federal activities, but — federal interference with constitutionally protected state actions.”
That’s a bitter pill for #Republicans infatuated with states’ rights."

The GOP wants to establish religious-based laws in America that restrict a woman’s bodily autonomy – her personal #FREEDOM.
#Republicans don't call it Sharia law, but it is similar to what the Taliban is doing in many ways.
#FreedomOfReligion = Freedom FROM religion
The USA is supposed to be a democracy, NOT a theocracy.

It's worth reading the whole letter, but especially from page 5 on wherein Fulton County DA Fani Willis beautifully demolishes fascist Rep. Jim Jordan.
She is thorough, professional and absolutely scathing. A perfect model of how to deal with #Republicans.
Particularly noteworthy is how she calls Jordan an idiot (quite correctly) in impeccably professional language.

"Since the 2020 election, Republican leaders have enabled #authoritarianism at four decisive moments.
1.after Biden won ... many Republican leaders questioned the results or remained silent
2. after Trump was impeached ... Senate Republicans overwhelmingly voted to acquit him
3. Republican leaders’ refusal to support an independent investigation [of Jan. 6]
4. Republican leaders ... will still support Trump even if he is convicted"

"A new liberal tilt to the court is driving Republican fears of losing their large legislative majorities, which were built under some of the most gerrymandered political maps in the country."
#wisconsin #republicans #gerrymandering #democracy
"Wisconsin Republicans have enjoyed outsize control of the Legislature in one of the most closely divided states for a dozen years. Maintaining that power is now at the heart of a drama involving the state Supreme Court that has national political implications."
