Democrats Block Resolution Condemning Iran For Murdering Protesters, Shooting Down Plane

House Democrats blocked a resolution on Tuesday that expressed support for oppressed Iranian protesters and condemned Iran for shooting down a Ukrainian passenger plane last week that killed 176 people.

“Consideration and a vote on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s resolution was blocked … by a vote of 226-191,” The Daily Caller reported. “The resolution would have condemned the Government of Iran for killing 1,500 Iranian citizens who were protesting their government, as well as condemned the Government of Iran for shooting down Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752, killing 176 people.”

Despite extensive online censorship and an official ban on many social media sites, Iranians are technically savvy and digitally active, with almost 70 percent of the country having access to the Internet. Nearly 50 percent of Iranians have Facebook accounts, and Farsi ranks as the 11th-most-used language on the Internet. All major Iranian political figures, including President Hassan Rouhani and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, are active Twitter users.:floor::lolabove:
Since September, we have been collecting all Farsi-language tweets in real time from Twitter’s streaming application programming interface, or API, by searching for all instances of the individual letters of the Persian-Arabic alphabet used in the Farsi language, within the subset of tweets classified as in Farsi. This technique allows us to capture essentially all tweets in the Farsi language worldwide; on average, that’s 760,000 tweets per day. In all, we have observed 820,000 distinct users, roughly 1 percent of the total Farsi-speaking population.

prez* Pussyneck last night explaining his difficulties when using the restroom. Truly crazy sht.
But sinks, toilets and showers. You don't get any water. They put restrictors on and now they made them permanent. People used to take them out. They put restrictors on. Try going and buying a new faucet. You turn it on, no water comes out. Right? We won't talk about toilets, but you know that's true. Ten, fifteen -- but we don't talk about that. Because I've said this three or four times, the only subject they ever talk about is toilet, so I don't mention it. But how about the shower? You go into a shower, and I have this beautiful head of hair. I need a lot of water. You go into the shower, right? You turn on the water. Drip, drip, drip. I call the guy, something wrong with this? No, sir. It's just the restrictor. So you're in there five times longer than you're supposed to be. You use probably more water. And it's a very unpleasant experience. Right? So we're getting rid of the restrictors, you're going to have full shower flow. You'll see. Did you ever go to the faucet, you turn on the faucet to wash your hands, and it turns on so easy. It's like this, you know, because there's zero pressure behind it, no water. You go like that the thing flips on and whoa. And then dunk, dunk. These people are crazy."

Trump administration abruptly cancels three classified Iran-related briefings - CNNPolitics
The Trump administration has abruptly canceled three classified congressional briefings related to the ongoing Iran crisis, in some cases providing little or no explanation for doing so.

This has not been rescheduled. We don't know why it was canceled," the aide said. "Staff is pissed.
We know why it was canceled. They would be facing questions they have no answers for regarding the release of the Parnevs documents.

Judge Andrew Napolitano: US killing of Soleimani was odd, out of place, untimely and unlawful
The general's assassination was odd, out of place, untimely and unlawful. Odd, because the general's folks had worked with our intelligence folks in Iraq against ISIS. Out of place, because the Iranian general was welcomed by the Iraqi government and was not engaged in any violence or war crimes at the time he was killed. Untimely, because whatever he may have been planning to do was not an imminent attack on the U.S. or on Americans. We know this because Trump administration officials revealed that the president gave the kill order seven months ago, in June 2019. How imminent could an attack have been in June if it had not occurred by January?

And unlawful, because we are not at war with Iran, and political assassinations have been prohibited by still valid executive orders signed by Presidents Gerald R. Ford and Ronald Reagan. The U.S. Constitution limits the federal government's lawful power to kill to foreign troops in wartime and after due process, neither of which abides here. Moreover, international treaties to which the U.S. is party, as well as the laws of war to which the U.S. subscribes, prohibit preemptive killings except when the target is just about -- "certainty" is the standard -- to strike.

Obama national security adviser says Trump ‘absolutely correct’ to kill Soleimani

If you believe Napolitano , and using his criteria, how many of Obummer’s 2800 drone hits were odd, out of place, untimely and unlawful. :floor: I’ll give you one, when Obummer killed two American citizens without due process:clap:

Um holy sh*t. This certainly makes it sound like Parnas and co. were actively tracking Yovanovitch's movements. This could explain why Yovanovitch was moved out of Ukraine so quickly.

The CIA does not comment whatsoever on drone strikes so “2800” is a completely made up number.

It seems to me, the wave of new evidence that is emerging, could be used by Senate GOPers to save face and do the right thing. They could say the House evidence was “weak” but these “new revelations have opened my eyes”. I also believe in the Easter Bunny.

And by executive order the “most open president* ever” changed the rules on reporting civilian deaths. Read as, He stopped reporting those numbers. The only way this ashole can function is by keeping his cult in the dark just the way they like it.

We know we have a temper tantrum president* and now republicans believe we have a Senate just as immature.:lol: Can they bring a gun to appease the 2A constituents?
The impeachment rules, include a ban on smart phones and electronics, a requirement senators sit at their desks and not talk to their neighbors, and not read any materials not directly associated with the ongoing testimony.
