The belief in Iraqi capabilities grew out of the last phase of the eight-year war with Iran. In 1988 Iraq seized the offensive in that war, spearheaded by the newly formed Republican Guards with their high-quality French and Soviet gear. By the end, the Iraqis were burning through decimated Iranian defenses like a blowtorch through crepe paper, sometimes enjoying force ratios of 50 to 1 over Iran. These victories were not alone due to superior Iraqi firepower or tactics, but to steamroller tactics not unlike the human wave onslaught used by the Chinese in Korea....

“Under the Constitution, may a State prohibit elective abortions before viability? Yes. Why? Because nothing in constitutional text, structure, history, or tradition supports a right to abortion,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch and four of her attorneys said in the brief.

Wade and 1992 Pennsylvania decisions by the Supreme Court, which ruled that states couldn’t place an “undue burden” on abortion before the fetus can survive outside the womb....

Cody Lee Pfister, 26, of Warrenton, was taken into custody by the local police department Monday after video of the stunt surfaced on social media earlier this month.

McConnell’s reign as majority leader was put to an end after Democrats won both the Georgia Senate runoff races, splitting the chamber 50/50 with the power of casting tiebreaking votes in Vice President Kamala Harris’ hands. Despite this defeat, McConnell has looked to retain what control he can over the Senate—having delayed proceedings with a dispute over retaining the legislative filibuster, which stalled movement on power-sharing, warning of a “scorched-earth Senate” should this be done away with....

California had a record surplus last year, but would still get $27 billion....
