Trump says he will pardon ex-Honduras president convicted of drug trafficking Juan Orlando Hernández was sentenced in the US to 45 years behind bars for conspiring to smuggle cocaine.

There’s gotta be some grift here. Massacring unknown people in boats to supposedly stop drugs, while pardoning drug traffickers.

2/ And one of the (MANY) things that makes this so egregious is that it puts Americans at risk- if we don't abide by the Geneva Conventions why should we expect our enemies to treat our pilots who eject or shipwrecked sailors by those same rules?

If true, this is a war crime. And anyone, from Pete Hegseth to senior military staff, who authorized a war crime should be held accountable.

If a naval vessel is sunk, survivors are "protected persons" per the Geneva convention, like a pilot who ejects after being shot down.

In four years Stalin made it all the way to Berlin. In four years Putin has made it about five miles.

That's all of Ukraine not currently occupied. That would give Russia all of Ukraine.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I’m thankful for family, friends, and our great country!

At its origin, #ThanksgivingDay was all about Americans coming together at the table, putting their differences aside and learning how to get along.

Unity was necessary to the early Americans’ survival, and it still remains essential to the endurance of our nation.

If it is found that Trump‘s orders to destroy boats in the Caribbean are illegal, he should be recalled to active duty to face Court Martial…

Oh wait, never mind.

✅ US Diplomats coaching our adversaries = normal.

✅ Advising troops not to follow illegal orders = sedition.

America, 2025.

We must support great journalism. I just subscribed to Bloomberg because of this outstanding and courageous reporting.

A timely reminder: If you support Trump you are unwittingly supporting Putin.

The Trump administration is built on three pillars:

- Incompetence
- Immaturity
- Malice

Just got a text from a Ukrainian friend in a bomb shelter right now suffering a “terrible air strike” from Russia.

America should be helping our democratic friends resist evil. Trump’s 28-point plan will be a stain on our history forever.

Arresting political opponents is usually the last step before becoming a full-blown police state.

At least now it’s clear who Republicans are worried about in 2028.

Let’s put it in math terms: Mamdani is to Trump as Ryan is to Michael Scott.

Opinion | Ukraine needs Russia’s frozen $200 billion immediately, Europe With Trump seeking Kyiv’s capitulation to Russia, now is the moment for decisive European action.

This isn’t a “peace plan.” It’s a blueprint for Ukraine’s capitulation. If implemented, it would turn this pro-Western, democratic nation, which has been courageously resisting Russian aggression since 2014, into a Kremlin colony. wapo.st/3XcRot6

80 years ago in this Nurnberg courtroom the US brought Nazi war criminals to justice.

25 years ago American forces stopped Serbian war crimes and helped bring Slobodan Milosevic to justice at The Hague.

Today Trump is working overtime to absolve Russians from their war crimes.

Kennedy Says He Told C.D.C. to Change Website’s Language on Autism and Vaccines

This is like saying “The phrase ‘vaccines don’t cause plane crashes’ isn’t supported by science.”

RFK Jr. should be immediately removed from his job. Irresponsible rhetoric like this will cost lives.

‘Witkoff needs a psychiatrist’: Europeans fume at Trump’s plan to profit from frozen Russian assets Diplomats and officials react with outrage to new details of the U.S. peace plan, warning it could wreck their efforts to help Ukraine survive the war.

This isn’t a “Peace Deal,” it’s an ultimatum that Trump is trying to impose on Ukraine—forcing them to cede territory to Russia that they couldn’t take by force.

BTW, today is the day Trump was supposed to impose secondary sanctions…crickets.

This is the peace proposal we should be demanding👇

Earlier this morning, President Trump threatened me and a group of service and veteran Members of Congress with arrest, trial, and death by hanging.

Here’s my response:

MAGA is bad for working Texans.

If you support this administration, you support swastikas.

Trump’s America, c.2025.

Trump calls for Democratic lawmakers to face trial for ‘seditious behavior’ “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” he wrote on Truth Social.

Actually, obeying unlawful orders would be a violation of military members’ oath of office as well as the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

But I would not expect our Draft Dodger In Chief to know that.

This is Room 600- the famous courtroom where the Nuremberg trials began 80 years ago today.

We must never lose our moral compass and always hold war criminals to account.

This means Vladimir Putin, waging a war of aggression in Ukraine and fanning the flames of a horrific Civil War in Sudan.

Republican policies hurt working Texans.
