MAGA Civil War Devolves As Right-Wing Conspiracists Resort To Doxxing Each Other

Right-wing influencers Laura Loomer and Candace Owens took turns releasing details about each other's personal lives over a squabble about the killing of Charlie Kirk.
After Owens spent weeks publishing conspiracy theories about Kirk's death, Loomer took revenge by publishing alleged details about Owens' houses and cars.
"She asked people to support her aka donate to her legal fund by buying her ugly merch," Loomer wrote on social media over the weekend. "Why doesn't she sell one of her luxury SUVS?"
"Why doesn't she support herself?" she asked. "The grift is real. And now she's saying Charlie is watching from heaven smiling as she terrorizes his widow with lies?"
TV host Ana Kasparian accused Loomer of "using fake/manipulated" documents to doxx Owens.
"Using fake/manipulated 'documents' to slander @RealCandaceO and her husband proves malicious intent," Kasparian insisted. "This is pretty disgusting and Candace should sue to be honest. This behavior is unacceptable and shouldn't go unchecked."
"You should stop lying and defaming me, accusing me of using fake documents," Loomer shot back. "Candace hasn't denied it. She knows it will be used against her in a deposition if she lies. Eventually it will come out. She won't deny it."

Kevin Hassett: War? What War?

Trump's Director of the National Economic Council Kevin Hassett doesn't want to piss off Dear Leader and contradict his latest lie, so he did his best to weasel out of answering the question when asked about the blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.
As we discussed here, and as former Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes made clear this Friday, a blockade is an act of war, so Trump's argument that somehow we're not at war because of the so-called ceasefire is laughable.
Hassett made an appearance on this Sunday's Face the Nation on CBS, and was asked by host Margaret Brennan whether or not we're still at war with Iran given the fact that the blockade is in place, and rather than admit his boss is a liar, Hassett pretended he didn't know what the definition of war is.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So, you said the blockade is still on. A blockade is an act of war. Are we at war with Iran?
KEVIN HASSETT: Iran shut down the straits. Iran shut down the straits, and the only ones they were letting through were Iranian ships, and President Trump didn't think that was acceptable.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So, we are still at war with Iran?

Texas Court Blocks Abortion Pill Telemed Prescriptions

Texas Republicans fall all over themselves touting their “pro-life” bona fides. However, their actual laws are anything but. In addition to a near-worship of life-killing guns, their anti-abortion laws have led to skyrocketing maternal deaths.
So, it’s no surprise that on Friday, Texas’ ultraconservative federal Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily blocked a 2023 FDA regulation allowing abortion-drug mifepristone to be mailed to patients.
As The Texas Tribune explained, the 2023 rule allowed doctors to prescribe mifepristone remotely and the drug to be mailed to patients in Texas and other states where abortion is illegal. Now, it can only be obtained in person.
