Thursday Political Cartoons: Year of the Fire Whores

Wow, there is some shit going on regarding Iran:

It needs to be said clearly that it would be absolutely insane for the United States to start a war of aggression against Iran. If anyone thinks that Trump gives a rip about democracy or human rights you are kidding yourself. It’ll be another campaign of domination and plunder.

Here is a thread to check out:

Trump officials say there's a 90% chance of strikes on Iran. He can’t without Congress. Rep. Thomas Massie & I have a War Powers Resolution to debate & vote on war before putting U.S. troops in harm’s way. I will make a motion to discharge to force a vote on it next week.

      The arrest of Prince Andrew over his dealings with Epstein-which included the alleged sex trafficking of Virginia Giuffre-is long overdueHopefully he is the first of many powerful men who face consequences for their crimesBut Pam Bondi will protect Donald Trump and his friends in perpetuity

        Andrew arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office as King says ‘law must take its course’

        Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest means the police have the right to take a custody picture, his fingerprints and DNA.

        If he is going to be held for more than six hours, it must be at a dedicated custody suite.

        These are part of what are now commonly known as police investigation centres, dedicated facilities to centralise the holding of all suspects so they can all be interviewed efficiently and looked after properly.

        The police cells themselves are basic – the objective is to hold someone securely, safely with decency, not inhumanely. So that means there is bedding, offers of changes of clothing – you will see cell-issued track suits in many clips of interviews released during trials – regular meals, and rules allowing someone to sleep.

        As for interviews, the precise timing of those – there can be more than one session – depends on what the police know so far and what they learn in the hours after an arrest.

        Each police force area has a duty solicitor scheme – incredibly hard-working criminal defence solicitors who independently advise people on their rights during the shock of the early hours after an arrest.

        They often hand over to a specialist solicitor, such as when a suspect has an existing lawyer who is eventually able to get to the interview.
