Make this make sense. The President launches lethal strikes on transporters of cocaine, but then pardons Juan Orlando Hernández, a convicted cocaine kingpin. In mafia terms, it’s like going after the bagman while inviting the mob boss to dinner. PS: Ban the presidential pardon.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Trump is summarily executing people suspected of being drug dealers, without providing any proof. How close are we to Trump ordering the execution of Americans he considers opponents? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-illegal-executions

Hear, hear! These raids must stop everywhere.

The former president of Honduras helped facilitate the trafficking of hundreds of tons of cocaine into the United States and was sentenced to 45 years in prison—but Trump pardoned him because he was a political ally. So much for “America First.”

Wow. Mark Kelly’s Devastating Takedown of Trump.

"The crisis exposed by the Trinidad strike is not just what U.S. forces may have done in the water. It’s what the administration did on land."

Not buying it.

And this qualifies as 'transparency' these days.

A U.S. senator is justifying war crimes: the military acting as judge, jury, and executioner for non-capital offenses. A reminder that there is evidence innocent passengers were onboard these vessels.

Let me say this plainly: If any other country had done this, we would call it what it is, a war crime. Because that is exactly what it was. open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

Maybe I missed it, but has even one Republican in Congress spoken out against Trump’s corrupt pardon of a guy convicted of helping funnel more than 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S.?

Since we aren't in a war, Pete Hegseth isn't technically a war criminal. He's just a garden-variety mass murderer.

“And (Jesus) tells you who his fake followers are—the ones who are openly religious but indifferent to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the immigrants, and the incarcerated, the lowest of the low. How we treat them is how we treat him.” www.simonandschuster.com/books/Separa...

Washington Post writer Carine Hajjar attempts to normalize the evergrowing Trump ballroom blueprint: "You'd think he's trying to add on a golf course." John Fugelsang strikes back: "Like Trump, it's gaudy, tacky and oversized."

America… wake up! We cannot silently sit by & watch a corrupt, cruel, incompetent, lying, felon, who disrespects women, as well as our laws & Constitution. We the People hold the real power. Together we can & will win our great country back.🇺🇸

President Trump, I am calling on you to fire Secretary Kennedy immediately. He has contributed to this measles outbreak by spreading falsehoods about vaccines. His reckless rhetoric will cost lives.

During WWII a German vessel fired upon sailors floating in the sea after the Greek vessel Peleus was sunk. The officers were tried and convicted in the Peleus War Crimes trial.

Pete Hegseth, you in danger, girl.

When you give political criminals the power to wage war, expect war crimes.

Good front-paging.

He will be remembered only for snatching food and life saving medicine from the poorest in the world. USAID.💔💔💔

Mark Kelly is a national hero who has served his country for his entire life. Donald Trump is a felon-rapist who is taking food from hungry children. If you're attacking the former and supporting the latter, you're a lousy human and a terrible patriot. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-astron...

We talked honestly about what families are facing: long waitlists for Medicaid mental health, the need for more behavioral health services, and how hard it is to get the care when you need it most.

Trump keeps trying to turn loyalty into power and pretend the country owes him more than any leader deserves. The story he’s selling is starting to crack. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-maga...

Would this have happened to a white resident? Asking for the First Nations.

This isn’t policy. It’s rule by fear.

This is Nazism. And the only reason some folks cannot see it is because they, themselves, are also dangerous fascists. This may be the most un-American statement ever uttered by a man currently serving as co-President of the United States. It spits in the face of everything America is.

In the Upside Down (again): Trump/Hegseth blow up *alleged* drug smugglers in fishing boats, yet pardons *convicted* former Honduran prez Juan Orlando Hernández — who conspired w/drug cartels that sent 400 tons of cocaine to the United States. 🧾 share.google/SiT1ENDBkZXr...
