Pete Hegseth And Adm. Mitch Bradley Belong In Prison The South American boat strikes are plainly murders. Now we have the names of the murderers. Do we have the political will to lock them up?

If a man personally implicated in war crimes can remain atop the Pentagon, why would he stand by and risk his freedom should Vance (or Trump again) lose the 2028 election?

And unless Bradley sees the inside of a brig, the message to USSOCOM's chain of command is that no action is impermissible.

He's making it a talking point.

A sensible place to begin.

over the last month or so, it feels like dems have affirmatively adopted a tactic of letting people know that they're getting threats from MAGA—the threats have been going on for a while but they're getting louder and louder about it

Trump Crypto Partner Alt5 Sigma May Have Violated SEC Rules After Another Filing Discrepancy Alt5 Sigma told regulators its accountant resigned in November, while he says he notified the company three months earlier.

Scoop: They tried to bury this news on Black Friday, but, well...

Trump crypto partner Alt5 Sigma told the SEC its auditor quit in Nov.

We called the auditor.

He resigned in August.

That's the second SEC filing with an apparent conflict that Alt5 Sigma has made in recent weeks.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

you always find such treasures

Reporter: Why won't the administration confirm or deny whether or not there were a survivors after that initial first strike? What imminent threat would survivors pose who were clinging presumably to the wreckage of that boat?

Leavitt: You guys are not listening fully to the statement I provided.

A reminder that London is far safer than many major cities, that crime is falling and that racists hate both these truths because they undermine their vicious little divisive narrative.

Multiculturalism works. London works. And those who hate both things hate themselves most of all.

As the U.S. cites alleged drug trafficking to justify removing Venezuela’s leader, Trump advances clemency for a Honduran ex-president convicted in U.S. court of moving hundreds of tons of cocaine into the United States.

Due Process in Third Country Removals The administration’s use of ad hoc procedures to send migrants to countries with which they have no connection likely violates due process.

The Trump administration has been pursuing third country removals for noncitizens in the United States since coming into office, sending migrants to unknown countries. @mboaz.bsky.social explores how these removals likely violate due process for these individuals.

I love business stories like this because they illustrate the impact of the new tariffs on a specific industry and explain why manufacturing and production can't be transferred to the US to avoid additional costs.

Spot on.

WATCH: “I would say Trump is both anti-Christian and anti-American values.”

@timmiller.bsky.social tells Gen Z conservatives how Trump attacks democracy, the rule of law, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, basic decency, etc

My PhD, years ago, had me travelling all over Britain & Ireland to look at woods. Many were owned by rickety aristocrats & they loved to gossip. Often the wood, a few fields & the sagging Big House might be all that was left.

Have been reading this & it’s jaw-dropping the shenanigans these two tulips get up to! Lownie says a number of ppl want to revise their positive reviews of the Bloated Battenberg, unsurprisingly. If they were working class, they’d be in jail. One wonders what the rest of them are at*

A basic and intuitive understanding of the law is that punishments should not be retroactive upon a policy change.

This is even worse. There is no formal policy change, they are simply penalizing couples for following common practice - explicitly allowed by Congress - for decades.

Steve Bannon Was Epstein’s Comeback Consultant. Where’s the Uproar? The MAGA architect is escaping opprobrium for his chummy relationship with the notorious pedophile.

Epstein emailed Bannon “Btw Im in New York tonite thru sat , if you want to visit under the cover of darkness or breakfast tomorrow if you like.” Bannon apparently did like, but requested “access that’s not the front door.” www.thebulwark.com/p/steve-bann...

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

Sure tore the hell out of the FCC and weaponized it though, didn’t ya?

"The United States Government protests most emphatically against this inhuman form of warfare practiced by Japanese forces in brutally attacking helpless survivors of a torpedoed vessel and demands effective assurances from the Japanese Government that such criminal acts, which are contrary to all standards of civilized conduct, will not be repeated in the future. It is expected that the Japanese Government will at the same time punish those persons who with premeditation and full knowledge of their actions have so flagrantly violated the primary humanitarian concept of maritime warfare.” Request Swiss Minister Tokyo51 to telegraph date of delivery to Japanese Government

Worth remembering now
