Taylor: "I would say to those prosecutors at the DOJ, you guys need to stop. You need to take a break. Because every time you try to bring one of these revenge prosecutions back and it's not accepted, you are creating a paper trail that you might be doing this for illegitimate purposes."

The boat-strike lies are piling up. We're at 25, and counting.
The Trump administration's story about the boat strikes keeps shifting dramatically, exposing the seriousness of the coverup underway.
"Under any president, of any political party, these series of shifting narratives would scream coverup, law-breaking, and corruption. While I can’t tell you for sure who is guilty of what, I can tell you there’s no way they’ll be able to run away from it now."

Hegseth sat next to the president in a Cabinet meeting and said this all happened because of the ‘fog of war.’..But you can’t invoke the ‘fog of war’ when you’re sipping coffee in a Pentagon conference room, watching a drone feed for an hour, and then giving the order to fire again on civilians.

Taylor: All the president has done is waved a magic wand and said, I hereby designate these people as terrorists, even though they are obviously not. The concern is who else he might decide to treat like terrorists and target with lethal strikes… even towards American citizens.

NEWS: Leaked memo exposes flimsy legal basis for Trump boat strikes
DOJ's classified, "legal authorization" for the missile attacks is beginning to collapse.
The legal “authorization” for Trump’s boat strikes appears to be falling apart. Sources familiar with the secret memo say it relies on a laughable “self defense” argument — and won’t withstand public scrutiny.

So what you’re saying is that you ran your campaign based on a scam? At least we can agree there. 🤷♀️

Congress should not limit its review to the strike. It must investigate when and where this idea originated.

READ: A violation of Mark Kelly's rights is a violation of your rights.
The senator from Arizona is being investigated by the Trump administration for the "crime" of telling people NOT to commit crimes.
This a violation of not only Kelly's rights, but of your rights:
"Mark Kelly is a test case. For what, you ask? The White House wants to know whether they can make ordinary people question the decision to speak out."

Taylor: Even if legally, this doesn't have implications for Mark Kelly, this has enormous implications for US service members bc this is signaling that if you dare to dissent we might court martial you. No living US service member has ever been put in this kind of position. [1/2]

NEWS: Trump says Dems "should be in jail right now" for questioning him
The president unintentionally proved the point of top Democrats, who warned about "illegal orders" in his administration.
"The flashing light is getting brighter and the alarm is getting louder...[Trump is] trying to scare off whistleblowers by saying refusal of his orders will be treated as sedition. Meanwhile, his orders are increasingly detached from oversight, legal scrutiny, and reality."
