Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.

This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.

The vote failed big, 19/31.

The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

DAMMIT It's Not Alzheimer's! Here's Why It's A Far Worse Nightmare Scenario

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Mark Kelly: "It seems to."

Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?"

And that, my friends, is what we would call "an illegal order."
