House Hamas supporters in political jeopardy

 Red State:

Few will be shocked to find out that some of the same radical Squad members (and their allies) who have alleged, without evidence, some of the vilest and incendiary things about Israel in the aftermath of the Hamas terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians are now running to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), begging him to call off powerful critics ahead of the Democratic primaries.

Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Cori Bush (D-Mo.), for instance, are facing formidable primary challengers who have in part been motivated by their stance on the Israel-Hamas war. As a result, the Progressive Caucus PAC led by anti-Israel Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) has been aggressively pushing Jeffries to protect them from criticism and primary challengers, warning that whatever money they burn through in the primaries will be money they don't have in the general election....

Despite the open war of words going on in the Democratic Party now regarding who stands where in the battle between Hamas terrorists and Israel - which manifested itself in the pro-Hamas rioters' attack on the DNC HQ, Jeffries has maintained that he will back up members as he tries to get Democrats back in the majority in 2024.

But shushing pro-Israel advocacy groups like AIPAC is going to be a tall, near-impossible order considering what's at stake....
...

Siding with Hamas mass murderers should be a political problem.  It is indefensible to most people.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
