@Gerashchenko_en All sounds great but who in US Congress is going to ensure Trump Admin enforces the sanctions? Didnt DOJ dismantle their sanctions unit months ago?

🚨BREAKING: An ICE/Border Patrol agent approached a U.S. citizen at a gas station, in Lake Worth, Florida, demanded his ID, and when the U.S. citizen asked why? …

The agent’s said, “Because you’re an immigrant.”

Except that is not how the Constitution works.

In the video, the U.S. citizen is standing at a gas station when an agent walks up and says, “Let me see your ID.”

The man asks a completely reasonable question, “Why?”

The agent responds, “Because you’re an immigrant.”

And before the man has even been identified, the agents grab his hands and puts him in handcuffs.

People standing around immediately start questioning what is happening…asking the agents how they can arrest someone when they haven’t even identified who he is…

But the agents ignore them and walk the man to their vehicle.

The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures. The Supreme Court has held that roving Border Patrol agents need reasonable suspicion, based on specific circumstances, to stop someone and question them about immigration status. And apparent ethnicity, by itself, is not enough.

So, what was the actual legal basis for demanding this man show his ID?

Because if the answer is literally… “because you’re an immigrant,” that should piss off every American.

You should not have to prove you’re a U.S. citizen before the government decides it has the right to put you in handcuffs.

And this is just another reminder that constitutional rights don’t mean anything if federal agents can violate them, over and over again, with no accountability.

When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.

A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”

That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.

I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Nobody can tell whether the FBI is assisting with the investigation into Lindsey Graham’s death because they actually suspect foul play or if Kash just wants attention. It’s pretty pathetic.

I have read and reread the US-Iran draft memorandum of understanding (MoU) supposed to be signed on June 19.
It looks as if the Iranians formulated their most outlandish wishlist & Trump just approved it.
Presumably Trump, as a village fool, ignored the diplomacy (as usual) and capitulated on his 80th Birthday.
This MoU is a tragicomic result of an unjustified and meaningless war instigated by Trump.
The Iranian regime has survived & probably got worse. It can celebrate a total victory over the US.
As an added bonus, it has split the US from Israel and discredited Netanyahu.
There are two generally positive agreements, which are both a restoration of the status quo ante:
First, Iran and the US "declare an immediate and permanent end to the war on all fronts". However, as in most points there are caveats to Iran's benefit. It includes "allies" and Lebanon, which means that the US prohibits Israel to bomb Lebanon and Hezbollah.
Second, both sides commit themselves to opening for full traffic through the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days.
Furthermore, Iran "reiterates that it will never produce nuclear weapons," as it did in the multilateral 2015 agreement with Obama.
For the rest, there are only US concessions to Iran:
Both countries undertake "to refrain from interfering in each other's internal affairs," that is, the US will not work for regime change in Iran.
The economic benefits the US offers Iran are extraordinary:
1. To ensure together with regional partners a development fund for Iran "of at least $300 billion."
2. To end "all types of sanctions currently facing" Iran.
3. The US Treasury "will issue waivers for exports of Iranian crude oil, petrochemical products...and all related services..."
4. The US undertakes to make sure that all frozen Iranian funds "will be released and made fully available." This involves tens of billions of dollars.
The final agreement "will be approved through a binding resolution of the UN Security Council", which gives China and Russia a veto.
Nothing is stated about Iranian proxy forces abroad or ballistic missiles or even what will happen with the Iranian uranium.
Let us hope that this unfortunate war has ended, but Trump has reinforced the terrible Iranian regime at an enormous cost.
"Stupid does as stupid is."
The US would benefit from restoring diplomacy.
