188. Five Questions About "Extrajudicial Killings"
There is no obvious legal argument to support President Trump's expanding campaign of strikes against alleged drug boats in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean. And the implications are even scarier.

Trump is appealing the court order to fund SNAP. âtheyâre clearly pushing the narrative that no one âdeservesâ food assistance. That you should pull yourself up by your bootstraps and be âproductiveâ or prepare to starve to death. Itâs full on Nazi rhetoric, and itâs not going awayâ

No One "Deserves" to Starve
SNAP funding is set to expire at the end of the month, meaning 42 million Americans will go hungry. A large percentage of those on SNAP are disabled, and many won't be able to stand in a bread line.

Like dozens of judges (including Trump appointees) whoâve had to spell out what their rulings mean, a resolution before the Senate today spells out, in the case of Venezuela, what âCongressâs power to declare warâ means. This should pass easilyâif Congress still cares about being a coequal branch.

School lunches get a bad rap, but they're healthier than the average packed lunch. And making them free for all amplifies academic and health benefits for low-income kids by removing stigma/shame. So I'm glad Colorado voted to raise taxes on high-income households to make school meals free for all.

At today's GOP presser, Mike Johnson links Mamdani to Obama, "who made health care unaffordable with his own socialist scheme." Calling subsidized private health insurance a socialist scheme is a quick way to show everyone that when you decry "socialism," you just mean anything that helps people.
