Court Watch, Part IV.
Weston County, Wyoming, courthouse.
The Justice Department has sued California to block new congressional district boundaries approved by California voters last week.
It's leaving the Texas crap districts alone, however.
In Utah, a Court blocked an effort to prevent their new commission designed districts, which features, gasp, a Democratic seat.
Cont:
Trump ordered the Justice Department to investigate links Jeffrey Epstein had to prominent Democrats and institutions including former President Bill Clinton and former treasury secretary, Larry Summers. Read as he bounces off the wall in panic like a grade school dodge ball. Bondi, of course, a loyal sycophant, appointed a prosecutor.

A Federal Court in Texas has blocked the state from using its recently redrawn Congressional District map.
Oops.
This will be appealed, but if the decision is upheld it would mean that the five GOP (probably) seats that the state added won't be, while California, in a recent election, added five.
Oops.
Additionally, early indicators are that Texas Hispanics are following the national tread and are becoming disenchanted with the GOP, so some Texas districts may swing Democratic on their own.
Oops.
All of this could mean that the 2026 election could see the House not only swing Democratic, but perhaps massively so, and that some of the Returning Republicans are no longer big fans of Trump, to which those survivors will be reassessing their loyalty to Trump.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Sen. Mark Kelly, and Reps. Jason Crow, Chris Deluzio, Maggie Goodlander and Chrissy Houlahan, all veterans, released a video urging member of the armed forces not to follow illegal orders. Donald Trump is now threatening them with prosecution for sedition, and the death penalty, which is ironic, as Trump is a seditionist.
A Federal Court ordered the illegal Trump deployment of National Guardsmen to Washington D.C. to come to an end.

The Madness of King Donald. The 25th Amendment Watch List, Seventh Edition. Night of Camp David
From Amazon:
Sound sort of familiar?

And then there's this:
Q: Can you explain what's going on with the bandages on Trump's hand?LEAVITT: We've given you an explanation. The president is literally constantly shaking hands.
Machinegun Lips Leavitt's statement is a dog that doesn't hunt. At this point, it's clear that there's something going on. The constant bruising on the hand suggest pretty strongly that Trump is frequently getting a picc line to his hand. He's getting IVs, probably, but for what?
He also recently had an MRI, and speaks of getting cognitive tests. Somebody is monitoring him pretty closely medically, and Trump himself doesn't seem to know fully why.

Wars and Rumors of War, 2025. Part 9. The Neville Chamberlain Edition.
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
Matthew, Chapter 24.
The settlement of the Czechoslovak problem which has now been achieved is, in my view, only the prelude to a larger settlement in which all Europe may find peace. This morning I had another talk with the German Chancellor, Herr Hitler, and here is a paper which bears his name upon it as well as mine. Some of you perhaps have already heard what it contains, but I would just like to read it to you. " ... We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again".[3]

My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour.
I believe it is peace for our time...

Russo Ukrainian War.
Regarding the articles of surrender being pushed by Donald Trump on Ukraine, a CST headline:
KYIV’S ALLIES PUSH BACK ON US PEACE PLAN
The claimant of Presidential Power, Дональд Трамп, stated that the proposal was his "final offer", as if the US is doing the offering. Secretary of State Rubio, who always looks like he's caught in a bad dream and who is probably the only significant member of the cabinet who is not a complete today, claimed that the plan is a "wish list", not a plan.
Independent Maine Sen. Angus King said earlier in the day that the plan is “one of the most serious geopolitical mistakes in my lifetime" comparing it to the 1938 Munich Pact. Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in statement, “if Administration officials are more concerned with appeasing Putin than securing real peace, then the President ought to find new advisors.” Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said McConnell’s criticism didn’t go far enough. “Putin is a murderer, a rapist and an assassin. . . We should not do anything that makes him feel like he has a win here.” Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, called the plan an “outrage.”

Yuri Ushakov: Yeah Steve hi, how are you?
YU: I am ok. Congratulations my friend.
YU: You made a great job. Just a great job. Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you.
SW: Thank you Yuri and thanks for your support. I know your country supported it and I thank you.
YU: Yeah, because we think that you are making the real job there in the region.
YU: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, you need to solve only one problem. [laughs]
SW: I know! How do we get that solved?
YU: You do. And when you think it could be possible?
SW: I think as soon as you suggest, my guy is ready to do it.
SW: Yuri, Yuri, here’s what I would do. My recommendation.
SW: But here’s what I think would be amazing.
SW: What if, what if... hear me out...
YU: I will discuss that with my boss and then I come back to you. Ok?
YU: Ok, that sounds good. Sounds good.
SW: And here’s one more thing: Zelenskiy is coming to the White House on Friday.
YU: Ok, ok. I got your advice. So I discuss that with my boss and then I come back to you, ok?
SW: Ok Yuri, I’ll speak to you soon.
From Bloomberg.
This comes at a time when the illegitimate Trump Administration, headed by a man who committed actual sedition, is threatening to prosecute members of Congress for sedition.

Russo Ukrainian War
Putin termed the Trump surrender terms a "starting point" and threatened to overrun Ukraine with Russia's larger army if Ukraine did not come to terms.
It should be plain by now that Russia's army is crap. It has been since some point before 1900. If it could overrun Ukraine, it would have by now. If all aid was cut off to it, and Russia then overran Ukraine, a guerrilla war would then ensue.

US. v. Venezuelan boats
From the Washington Post:
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
So now we kill people in the water. Something we decried in World War One and World War Two.
A U-boat commander was tried and executed for that after the Second World War.
Heinz-Wilhelm Eck. He ordered his crew to kill survivors and was convicted of a war crime and sentenced to death as a result.
United States v. Venezuela
Trump threatened to close Venezuelan air space.

United States v. Venezuela
Members of Congress appeared on the weekend shows about the murder of two men in the fist strike who were on a remnant of the destroyed boat.
Tom Cotton showed himself the most extreme, maintaining that they were a dangers as they were attempting to upright the boat and reload the cargo, which is absurd. He pretty much took the position that killing drug runners through military force is perfectly okay.
If that's the GOP position, and it apparently is in Congress, they should just state that. The problem is, of course, that Trump just pardoned convicted drug runner, former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández. Cotton claimed not to know the details of that while berating the host of This Week.
Add Cotton to the list if individuals who are temperamentally unsuited to be in Congress.
Thailand v. Cambodia
The countries entered into a ceasefire agreement recently which Trump claims as one of his "eight wars". Thailand bombed Cambodian positions on their disputed border yesterday.

United States v. Venezuela
The US seized the Guyana-flagged "Very Large Crude Carrier" that was loaded covertly with 1.1 million barrels of oil in mid-November. The ship was headed for Cuba, but has been anchored offshore Venezuela since being loaded with oil. Half of the country's oil production goes to Cuba.
Why did we stop it?
This isn't clear, actually. The government claims the ship is involved in the illegal transportation of oil.
