CNN: If a sailor in the Caribbean is given an order they think possibly could be illegal, what are they to do?

HOULAHAN: If you receive an order you're not sure of, you have a duty to question your commander, the person next in your chain of command. You have a duty to go up the chain of command

That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying that we don't have enough rules. People are getting away with rape and more.

In some cases, we don't even have appropriate laws to stop crimes like human trafficking.

Our system overpunishes the poor and does nothing to the wealthy.

THAT is the injustice we have in our country. That mirror is going to span all sides of the political and ideological spectrum.

Our system also allowed and encouraged people like Trump to continue doing what he does. No wonder he doesn't see what he does wrong.

He continues daily.

There is no punishment for these types of crimes for the wealthy or those in that circle.

They do what they want BECAUSE WE LET THEM!

He and Maxwell were accepted in elite circles - the wealthy, academic elite, political elite. He never saw justice for what he did to the victims. Neither did the others involved. Except Maxwell.

We will see how some are comfortable working with pedophiles who have not seen justice. And they won't understand why some of us are troubled.

Why do I say "seen justice"? I believe everyone deserves a second chance and redemption. But Epstein never saw justice for the horrors he did.

Power and what's coming. I suspect that after this experience, not just with the Trump regime, but the release of the Epstein files, we will see a new ethical system.

The release of the Epstein files will hit all people and groups. We are seeing it and people aren't reacting well to it.

Trump's Kasshoggi Murder Cover-Up

Vindman refers to “shocking and disturbing” Trump and MBS call about the gruesome murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.

"The American people and the Khashoggi family deserve to know what was said on that call."

This was disappointing when it first came out a few years ago.

But after reading the extent of the messaging and relationship, disappointing isn't strong enough of a word.

I truly don't understand how anyone could knowingly be connected to a pedophile who never saw justice.

House Republicans’ attempt to censure Democrat over texts with Epstein fails Measure that would have formally reprimanded Stacey Plaskett over real-time texts during 2019 hearing collapses

This one has been bugging me....I like Plaskett and am very disappointed that she was texting with Epstein during Michael Cohen's hearing. Of all people she could text! I think Mills should have been censured too.

I'm curious about your thoughts on this.

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses, as hate symbols.

Mayor-elect Mamdani bringing in Lina Khan is a major warning shot to private equity.

Larry Ellison was besties with Steve Jobs.

I wonder what Steve would say to Larry right now about what he's doing.

For some reason, I doubt he would approve.

...uncontrollably after reading them, what's in Epstein files is horrific.

And that leads to Trump tweeting about Democrats reminding service members not to follow illegal orders.

Trump will do what it takes not to be exposed.

We are not ready to see who Trump really is. Neither is his base.

Get ready because wild times are ahead and most of us aren't ready.

Epstein wrote this to Larry Summers about Trump: “I have met some very bad people, none as bad as Trump. Not one decent cell in his body. So, yes, dangerous.”

If FBI agents who read the files were puking or crying...

Women have been highlighting equality and equity disparities in healthcare for some time.

Disturbing to see 3 stories in as many days about the continued decline and outright failure of our systems to care for Black women, particularly in maternal healthcare.
