Based on the news so far today one can understand why one spends time looking at reels on YouTube. Yesterday I posted this clip from the movie Crazy Stupid Love that I thought was funny. Still do. youtu.be/bct2xIQPZmQ?si=Fe2Si9PFVWlx4dKgLater I found this video of Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone talking about the filming of the clip above. It’s just as funny as the clip. youtu.be/8lXzXexojT4?si=Bdl48WOqo6TaqoNf

Meanwhile back to reality…
Kaitlin Collins…
”To make it more explicit, the NSC says, “While we continue to collect information, our current assessment, based on analysis of overhead imagery, intercepts and open source information, is that Israel is not responsible for the explosion at the hospital in Gaza yesterday.”

This is the guy I voted for. And by golly he is doing the job I want him to do.
Which makes me wonder when the voters continue to vote for the chaos the Republicans cause its because that the job they want them to do, create chaos.
Mike Thompson…
”We have a lot of important work to do for the American people. The answer in the House is a bipartisan approach. The American people deserve action, and House Democrats are ready to find common ground and a bipartisan path forward to responsibly govern.”

The New York Times… ”In Opinion “Eventually, one assumes, a new speaker will emerge,” Michelle Cottle writes. “But the entire circus has already laid bare the dark flaw at the heart of this Congress: The Republican conference is failing as a democratic entity.” The story is in the link but behind a paywall which I can’t access. x.com/nytimes/status/1714667675933405230?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nwBut the caption caught my eye. Opinion: Jim Jordan is a lousy Strongman. I immediately thought of Nancy Pelosi who is a true strongwoman.

That’s good news. For a time it was believed the Republicans wouldn’t allow a replacement for Senator Feinstein on the Judiciary Committee. I guess they figured out the Republicans in the House were busy making asses of themselves and the Republican Senators didn’t want to add to it so they did the right thing.
Kyle Griffin…

Prompted this truthful respinse from
Fred Wellman…
”Who the hell is he talking about? Jim Jordan has refused a lawful subpoena and refuses to tell the truth about his actions surrounding January 6th. That’s on top of lying for decades about what me knew at Ohio State. Give me a break.”

”GOP Rep Tom Cole asks Republicans to vote for Jim Jordan because he will cut Social Security and Medicare.
So called Republican “moderates” have a choice. They can vote for an extremist who will cut Social Security and Medicare. Or they can choose a bipartisan path forward.”

A picture is in the link of the possible impact crater.
This
OSINTTechnical… “Possible impact crater at the Ahli Hospital in Gaza, roughly 1x1 meter, maybe 30cm deep.” Prompted this response Marc Garlasco… “Whatever hit the hospital in #Gaza it wasn’t an airstrike. Even the smallest JDAM leaves a 3m crater. Widespread surface damage and total lack of cratering inconsistent with an airstrike.” Which prompted this response… Mehdi Hasan… “Marc has worked for the Pentagon, for the UN, for Human Rights Watch, and knows his stuff on war crimes and air strikes. In all the fog of war, and the fog of Twitter, he's a credible and serious voice worth paying attention to. At least, I do.” “I also won't be surprised if it turns out a Palestinian group's rocket misfired, as it's happened before & they've denied it. Just as last night, I wasn't surprised to hear Israel being blamed, as they have killed civilians before & denied it. We need foreign journalists in Gaza.” x.com/marcgarlasco/status/1714590544620408909?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

It seems the Republicans in the Senate may be distancing themselves from the mess in the House and are working to get things done. Herbie Zisklend…. ”🧵In other news today: @potus nominated - with bipartisan support - 2 more extraordinarily qualified candidates for the federal bench, bringing his number of federal judicial nominees to *193.* Republican Senators @senatorlankford and @senmullin both applauded the picks. 1/ “President Joe Biden announced his intent to nominate Sara Hill and John Russell to federal district courts—both of whom are extraordinarily qualified, experienced, and devoted to the rule of law and our Constitution." 2/ x.com/herbieziskend46/status/1714692240654713304?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw
