❤️ if you want Trump removed directly from office to prison

The issue about killing the last 2 survivors is secondary: Trump and Hegseth have ordered *83* murders, not 2. None of these people were ‘enemy combatants’. They were suspected drug smugglers until proven to be guilty in a fair trial. Without that, they were murdered. That is all. 🙄🇺🇸🙄

An easy way to explain luddites: Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand. And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before. That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

As a veteran who served in intelligence, I want to introduce you to EXORDS: the execute order from the President to SecDef. This allows 60 days operations under the War Powers Act. The President must advise Congress and gain approval to continue. No EXORD was sent to Congress. This is illegal

Nah Kristi, slaves and immigrants built this nation. You know.... non white people. 😑

The Trump administration's strikes in Venezuela were ordered without Congress, without transparency, and without any justification to the public. These actions are reckless, unconstitutional, and dangerous for our national security.

Listen, if you tell me that “taxation is theft” I’m going to need you to quit driving on highways or walking on sidewalks or attending a public school or using police or fire services or city snow removal. I would mention libraries, but…

@markhertling.bsky.social: “When you're talking about striking against someone who's wounded and clinging to debris…Deliberately targeting such a person isn't a tactical decision, it's a war crime by the Geneva Convention, the laws of land warfare, and the U.N. Charter.”

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

We are not at war with Venezuela, yet. The boats are civilian craft. The U.S. criminal code does not maintain a death penalty for drug smuggling. Due process is required before conviction or sentence. All of the 80 people killed thus far are wanton murders slain under illegal orders. All of them.

Abolish ICE

Today I want to share with you a statement by former federal judge Mark L. Wolf explaining why he resigned from the federal bench in early November. I found it sobering and troubling. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/winner-of-this-weeks-joseph-welch

Trump needs to be imprisoned

Today is World AIDS Day, a day that reminds me of the decades-long fight for dignity, science, and compassion. We’ve come so far because activists, researchers, and communities refused to be ignored.

Sadly relevant today.

Things won’t change for the better in America until more White folks begin to tell the truth about how- “White” is not always right, the Trump administration has made things @ home & abroad, unsafe all Americans are w/ Trump in office Trump et.al need to be impeached/prosecuted for their deeds.

It is important to stand up to election conspiracy theorists because nothing destroys a democracy quite as quickly as the belief that elections are fake and pointless.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Reposting this everyday until Pete Hagueseth faces justice for his crimes against humanity.

“In a statement of the former JAGs Working Group, the former military lawyers analyzed … relevant international and domestic law, concluding that ‘both the giving and the execution of these orders, if true, to constitute war crimes, murder, or both.’”—the Contrarian Just as Congressmen warned.

Considering Canada owns $426B of US debt, it appears a certain former bank Governor is in on the play. Might have brought this strategy together for EU, during their multitude of meetings, perhaps?

One of my first journalism professors would give you a zero if you had even one error of fact. It happened to me. Sucked so much. He was one of the best professors I ever had, I took three more classes from him, and we’re still in touch

The liars in the White House aren't "mistaken." They know they're lying. They think lying is a big part of their job. Never cut them a break by thinking they're confused or deluded. They're lying to steal the freedom of everyone you love.

Aside from the extremely dubious question of whether the occupants of the Venezuelan boat even qualified as “combatants,” ordering a second strike from an aircraft for the sole purpose of killing defenseless people was absolutely an illegal order.

Trump's been working harder to hide the Epstein files than a three-legged cat trying to bury a turd on a marble floor.

As a Navy Vet I know and remember my oath... those who have never served need to STFU! Those who have served and are calling these PSAs seditious never took their oath to heart and are traitors to the constitution and nation...

MAGA stands for freedom of speech (with the exception of journalists, elected members of the opposition party, former administration officials, anti-fascists, students, librarians, scientists, federal civil servants, immigrants, and any US citizen who criticizes their lord and savior Donald Trump).

"Don't follow illegal orders" would be more meaningful if Democrats had prosecuted literally any of the prominent war criminals of the last 30 years instead of, you know, fucking campaigning with them

Agree or disagree?

This is the European official Rubio refuses to engage with. I like her. Can she be President of Europe please 🙏

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Happy Thanksgiving y'all! Keep on keeping on! Im thankful for you

Everyone is looking for someone to blame for the DC National Guard shooting. Instead of that wasted energy, we should be asking the question nobody is asking, how did the shooter get his guns? What can we do as a country to make gun violence less likely?

I took an oath to serve and protect the Constitution and its people, and that oath never expires. The military should never be about politics - it should be about our country and serving. Period.
