The U.S. is now at war in Iran after Donald Trump launched strikes without Congressional authorization, despite campaigning against regime change and new wars. Rep. Jim McGovern (D) Massachusetts, argues there is no justification or clearly defined mission, warns of quagmire-like consequences, rising costs, and criticizes Republicans and House leadership for blocking debate and ignoring Congress's constitutional role and the War Powers Act, citing prior votes tied to Venezuela. National security analyst Joe Cirincione says the administration's claims of an imminent threat collapsed, asserting Iran lacks missiles to reach the U.S. and is not close to a nuclear weapon; he frames the conflict as a regime-change war pushed by Israel and Saudi Arabia, worsened by Trump's exit from the 2015 nuclear deal and bad-faith negotiations. They discuss risks including wider regional escalation, oil shocks, global recession, and damaged U.S. credibility.

AQUARIUS SOLAR ECLIPSE REVIEW: SHOCKS & SUPRISES REVEAL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IDEOLOGIES & IDEOLOGUES

! JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for this week's Astro News You Can Use, including a look at former Prince Andrew's sudden arrest & how the Epstein scandal has reached the level of crimes against humanity at the United Nations!This podcast discusses how the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse on Feb 17 challenges now us to plant seeds that can blossom into the birth of a new, more humanitarian future-oriented ideology. It told us too, however, that it's the ideologues who, rather than believe in an ideology founded on a system of ideas and ideals--especially ones which form the basis of economic or political theory and policy--instead are often blindly partisan advocates or adherents of a particular ideology.And, since this eclipse had both luminaries in Aquarius square their ruler Uranus in Taurus, it's highlighted that a change in values is most definitely overdue. Uranus is the planet that tells us that the only constant is change. And, that the longer we resist change, the more likely change will occur in a sudden, surprising, or shocking way.So, the universe is asking us now several things if we look back & review the past few lunations. It obvious now that it asked us at the December 19 Sagittarius New Moon to plant seeds that lead to bringing into collective consciousness what we believe to be truly moral, ethical, & just.Meanwhile, the Capricorn New Moon on January 18 highlighted the need for us to stand our ground, or draw the line if you will since Saturn-ruled Capricorn loves its boundaries, in the fight against tyrannical idealogues who don't believe in upholding justice for all.Now, since this February 17 Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse—which carries several themes we're already seeing playing out not only here in America but worldwide—it's time for us to review our true ideological beliefs & decide whether they are about a future of betterment for all of mankind or only for a entitled few.Former Prince Andrew's arrest on February 19, which also happened to be his 66th birthday, shocked the world given his royal lineage. However, it showed us that no one is immune from finding justice through the legal system.This podcast looks at Andrew's natal chart & dissects how his Chiron in late Aquarius conjunct his 8th House Pisces Sun—along with his Scorpio Moon square to them both—reveals the origin of his woundedness in relationships in general & with females in particular. We also discuss his history of sexual obsession from the time he was a young teen.Meanwhile, however, the Epstein scandal—spurred mostly by the release of three million documents related to him—has gone international in other ways as well, since it's reached the level of concern for the United Nations.“In a statement on Monday, the independent experts – who serve in their individual capacities under mandates from the UN Human Rights Council and are not UN staff – warned that the alleged acts documented in the files could amount to some of the gravest crimes under international law.“The reported conduct could amount to sexual slavery, reproductive violence, enforced disappearance, torture, inhuman and degrading treatment, and femicide, according to the experts.“So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character, and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls, that a number of them may reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity,” they said.” IS AMERICA AT A TURNING POINT, AND IF SO, IS IT “UNITED WE STAND” OR “DIVIDED WE FALL?”Meanwhile, other shocks & surprises occurred as well, including the sad news of the death of Jesse Jackson, “American civil rights activist, politician, and ordained Baptist minister. A protégé of Martin Luther King Jr. and James Bevel during the civil rights movement, he became one of the most prominent civil rights leaders of the late 20th and early 21st centuries,” according to Wikipedia.Then there's the ongoing stalemate in the partial U.S. government shutdown as GOP ideologues continue to block the Democrat's request to make modifications to Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) & Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) agents as they continue to violate due process & the 4th Amendment.   No surprise that the partial government shutdown took place as Saturn (read: resistance) entered Mars-ruled Aries, the archetypal energy of motivation & action. There's this from Thom Hartmann, Feb 17: The American Revolution Started Over This Kind of Abuse: Have We Forgotten? Once the government decides who qualifies for Fourth Amendment protection, rights stop being rights and start being privileges handed out by those in power…”“This fight isn't really about immigration,” Hartmann explains. “It's about whether the Constitution still restrains government power at all. When elected officials call it a ‘nonstarter' to require federal agents to get a judicial warrant before kicking in doors, to give people bail or a trial before they face long-term prison, and to allow protests, they're not debating border policy, they're testing whether the Bill of Rights is still binding or has become merely decorative.“The Fourth Amendment: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”SATURN/NEPTUNE CONJOIN IN MARS-RULED ARIES: WAR INLAND & ON THE SEAS?And now we find ourselves on the threshold of the new Saturn/Neptune cycle as the two meet on February 20 in Aries, kicking off a astrological energy that will last for the next 36 years.This as Donald Trump has threatened to staunch the free flow of information concerning voting & voting rights by threatening to limit who can vote & define who can't. All based on the fact that he's an ideologue who, in combination with his many lies, seems to truly believe he lost the 2020 presidential election due to fraud inherent in the voting process. And then there's his threats now to go to war with Iran. Remember, Saturn represents foundations that allow us to feel secure, while Neptune is water, among other things. In Mars-ruled Aries, with the naval building up near Iran, it's clear that Trump's threats involve invading Iran represent a transgression of such boundaries.Like his illegal bombing of boats in the Caribbean & Pacific oceans suspected (but not proven) to be carrying illegal drugs, & his midnight military invasion of Venezuela & the kidnapping of its leader Nicolas Maduro & his wife, this most recent threat to Iran—likely endorsed by Israel's Netanyahu since the two met recently in Washington, D.C.—seems to be based also on Trump's fixed ideological notion that he is the king, not only of America, but of the world.Pushback has already begun as a War Powers Resolution has been introduced in Congress, stated that only they have the ability to declare & not the president alone. Tensions will likely grow as we approach the February 24 first quarter lunar square of the Gemini Moon to the Pisces Sun (since the Sun entered Pisces on February 18, the day after the Aquarius solar eclipse.)The Moon (the people) will likely continue to communicate (Gemini) their concerns with the president's (Sun) vaguely articulated plans to invade yet another sovereign nation that has not declared war against the U.S.MERCURY RETROGRADE IN PISCES: REVIEW TIME!When Mercury stations retrograde at 22'34” Pisces on February 24, we've the opportunity to review several things, the first of which is what is the emotional quality of our lives? Given the state of the sluggish growth in the U.S. economy based on the negative results of Mercury-related tariffs on trade & the cost of goods, Trump's refusal to allow the opening a second major trade route from Michigan to Canada in the form of the Gordie Howe Bridge, we see there's much to review…There is also, of course, the ability of “local” communities to continue their protests against ICE & CPB as the courts have become overwhelmed by the number of habeas corpus & other rights violation cases by both citizens & immigrants—both legal & illegal—alike.As we wait the exact square of Mars in Aquarius to Uranus in Taurus, keep an eye out for any sudden martial or military action based on the beliefs of ideologues such as Trump & the kakistocracy government he's put into place this past year. The signs say it will be sudden and, given the involvement of Mars, potentially violent…Tune in to hear more, including where this Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse fell in both Washington, D.C. & in the U.S. Sibly birth charts & what that portends @https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingSee you then!

Bill Press talks with Editor and Publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel and Executive Editor John Nichols of The Nation about the magazine's editorial calling for the impeachment of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. They argue cabinet officers can and should be impeached, citing what they describe as Noem's repeated false public narratives about federal operations in Minneapolis, including the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and they call for independent investigations, accountability, economic restitution for impacted businesses, and dismantling ICE. They discuss impeachment as a political constitutional tool, the likelihood of House action versus Senate conviction, and parallel accountability via elections and congressional oversight. The conversation also covers The Nation's nomination of Minneapolis residents for the Nobel Peace Prize for their constitutional, mutual-aid-based resistance to masked federal agents, and notes leadership by Mayor Jacob Frey, Governor Tim Walz, and Attorney General Keith Ellison. In the second half, they broaden to U.S. policy in Latin America and the Caribbean, referencing The Nation's long history of covering Venezuela and opposing the Cuba embargo, Rep. Jim McGovern's resolution to lift the embargo, the rollback of the Obama opening, and a forthcoming profile of Marco Rubio, while arguing that empire abroad undermines democracy at home and that Trump's posture is better described as aggressive unilateralism.Today highlights the work of The Nation Magazine.

The people running today's ICE hunt clubs may feel untouchable now. After all, people like them always do. But history keeps receipts and is utterly merciless with those who choose to hunt human beings. So did the American South after Reconstruction, when “posses” and “night riders” were praised as patriots until, in the 1950s and 1960s, we finally admitted to ourselves what they really were and did something about it. Georgia Judge Sounds the Alarm Over FBI's Raid. Trump Throws Childish Tantrum at Canada. Racist Alert! Laura Loomer is very upset at “Illegal aliens and Latin “hookers” twerking at the SuperBowl" and "This isn't White enough for me."

In this episode, Bill reconnects with Ari Berman, National Voting Rights Correspondent for Mother Jones, to discuss potential threats to the fairness and legality of upcoming elections. Berman emphasizes concerns about former President Trump's potential interference and outlines how the federal government's recent actions, such as demanding state voter rolls, could suppress voter turnout. The discussion highlights fears of racial gerrymandering, the implications of the Save America Act, and the persistence of unfounded voter fraud claims. They also critique the limited support from Republicans for election integrity and consider the importance of safeguarding democratic processes against federal overreach.

Plus Incompetence Alert! RFK Jr claims KETO diets can cure schizophrenia. The claim vastly overstates preliminary research into whether the high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet might help people with the disorder, experts said.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
