There's going to war on faulty intelligence, then there's going to war in absence of intelligence, and then there's this:
Going to war in the face of contrary intelligence

The Intelligence Community said a week ago that Iran had not moved towards a nuclear weapon.
Have they changed their assessment? And if not, what the hell is the U.S. doing ignoring our own intelligence?

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Lawyers have ethical obligations to courts regardless of what their bosses say. If a government lawyer is asked to violate their oath, they should resign. There is no excuse for caving to Trump.

I just called my GOP Rep. Nick LaLota to ask if he supports the Trump tariffs. His DC office wouldn’t tell me, since they claim he’s given them no direction on what to tell his constituents. But the staffer said they’re being flooded with angry calls.
