...to RULE in favor of death in med treatment situations. It must have no such power. If decisions are needed in extremis, patient or family are to make them, & inequality of resources must not mandate death IOT equalize outcomes when patient/fam can or can't find options. 3/3

Regarding govt stance, the inviolable principle MUST be: Govt NEVER favors *medical* outcome of death over outcome of life. Govt administering death must be entirely reserved for criminal punishment. Govt is not responsible to keep everyone alive, but it cannot be allowed... 2/3

Important concepts in all of this: 1. Assisted suicides can quickly cross over to "justified" homicide in interest of "national health" resource allocation. 2. Pregnant women could commit un-assisted suicide. The core problem is *govt* stance on "administering" death. 1/3
🚨OMG MOMENT 🚨 Labour's Lord Falconer has just said being PREGNANT will not exempt you from assisted dying in the UK So a pregnant woman who could be suffering from all sorts of hormonal changes etc. as you do with pregnancy can end her life and her unborn baby Sickening

Important point & development. Trump admin is calling this one right.
The U.S. no longer treats Judea and Samaria as occupied territory, and is strongly reaffirming its position that Jewish communities there do not violate international law. This is important because the main argument to the contrary has been that "everyone agrees."

In States for temporary assignment during my overseas tour in Naples, IT, I drove NorVa Beltway almost every day. It's really tame compared to Tangenziale in Naples & Autostrada in its vic. Seriously. Driving Beltway is like watching paint dry. Like Germany. Ppl stay in lanes.🤣
@shipwreckedcrew Must be something like driving the Northern Virginia Beltway. Those people are crazy.

Bolivia's new pres turning out as anticipated - very positive development. Bolivia's had long history of instability; feckless of US under admins since ca. 2009 to sit still for Morales links to Iran & RU/CH. Rodrigo Paz is good news. Hope Trump will engage energetically.
BREAKING: The new President of Bolivia is now working to terminate lithium mining contracts with China & Russia, in favor of a deal with the United States. President Rodrigo Paz's Foreign Minister said, "We are looking for a long-term relationship with U.S., relations based on

Make this 4 Turkish ships Russia has attacked in 48 hrs. Remember, Turkey is a NATO ally. If there's no coherent response from NATO, Putin gets what he wants: demonstration of NATO inertia in face of immediate threat. He proves NATO can't keep order in its own back yard.
Russia has attacked 4 Turkish ships over the past 48 hours. 3 of the ships were hit by Russian suicide drones in the port of Odesa yesterday while 1 ship was hit by a Russian drone out at open sea. 🇹🇷🇷🇺

...hit on a broke-down shadow fleet specimen. Evidently Russia expects to get away with it? We'll see what happens. If I were Turkey I wouldn't let Turkish-owned ships be treated this way. 2/2 https://t.co/8byaSyoqo1

The Russian attack on the CENK-T cargo ship follows four recent Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil tankers.

The interesting part of this attack by Russia on shipping used to supply Ukraine: it's what we might call a premier-league attack. On front-line, openly-operated, duly flagged (Panama) & registered Turkish-owned vessel. It's a big-noise, big-whack volley. Not back-alley... 1/2

No, you don't stop fast boats run by armed cartel thugs, using VBSS crews. You just set up VBSS crews to get shot that way. We don't do that in Persian Gulf. Shouldn't do it in Caribbean either.
Reporter: "If you can seize a tanker without k*IIing anyone, shouldn't that have been the way these fishing boats were also stopped?" Sen. Eric Schmitt: "Fishing boats? … The drug runners? Those aren't fishing boats." Reporter: "Yeah, but…" https://t.co/5DncXzab4v

Agree; there are states backing organized antisemitism & antizionism. Newer is significance of NGOs, media, & UN agencies/cooperating orgs in pushing them. A great deal of info power now shifted to orgs falsely presumed to be independent/good faith operators.
Post-Soviet antisemitic antizionist demonization has been orchestrated continuously for 24+ years. The UN Durban "anti-racism" conf & NGO Forum launched these campaigns, including "genocide," "apartheid" etc. Among others. Qatar funding & platforms are involved via @AlJazeera,

I've been briefed on United Flight 803 from Dulles to Japan. Here’s what we know: -An engine failed on the Boeing 777-200ER shortly after take-off -275 passengers, 15 crew members on board -A piece of the engine cover separated and caught fire, sparking a brush fire on
A United Airlines flight bound for Tokyo returned safely to Dulles International Airport Saturday afternoon after a mechanical issue on takeoff sparked a brush fire along the runway. https://t.co/HwQKKagixF

Such an important point. Concept was constructed by activist lawyers to set up judicial rulings & precedent. Real-world consequence is never relief from supposed "disparate impact." It's a shakedown of industries: settle suits by forking over extortion money. Clinton-era launch.
“Disparate impact” was created by a court, not Congress. The @CivilRights Division and @TheJusticeDept will continue ignoring the noise and doubling down on protecting ALL Americans.

The judicial branch has nothing to say in Trump's command of NG in a Federal Reserve. If Congress has a problem with the execution, Congress can take it up under Article I.
🚨🚨🚨Another win for Trump with a stay preventing Judge Byer from countermanding Trump's control of the National Guard...at least temporarily.

Boo...hiss...for this development. But fair winds, following seas, & God keep & defend all who've sailed in USNS John Ericsson.
Last ride of USNS John Ericsson of @MSCSealift as she heads to Norfolk to be taken out of service. Another Kaiser-class oiler bites the dust.
