Summary
<p>The entire crisis in the Middle East that seems to be resolving itself right now started when Donald Trump ordered the assassination of the number three official in the Iranian government. He has no legal authority to do that, under the Constitution and under US law, unless he can prove that he did so to stop a far more destructive and imminent attack against Americans or American interests.</p><p>Declassify the Intelligence Now!</p><p>Is John Bolton's sudden interest in agreeing to testify motivated by his upcoming book deal? With all the media attention on Trump's debacle in Iran, is the catastrophic loss of habitat and animal life in the Australian fires being overlooked? For the Book Club, Thom reads selections from "Monarchy of Fear" by Martha Nussbaum and "Revolutionary Love" by Michael Lerner.</p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.</p>
