    US lawmakers see no Trump plan for Iran following strikes

    The nitwits you refer to are incapable of seeing the obvious. The "plan" is to drastically weaken the terrorist and authoritarian evil government in Iran so the people will have a chance to overthrow that government and establish a government of the people.

    Justice Gorsuch fails to see the forest for the trees in LEARNING RESOURCES, INC. v. TRUMP

    Justice Roberts wrongly, and arbitrarily, conclude tariffs are prohibited under the IEEPA
