Exactly the rapists are still out there. It is an addiction that without lifelong ongoing forms of therapy does not stop and is triggered. They must be arrested for public safety.

It’s worse: the orange Buffoon wants to use 100m of Russian(!) assets to pay for Ukraine‘s rebuilding in exchange for 50% of the profits, while Europe should pledge the same amount of its own money for nothing. It’s a typical Trump business, but does not care for the people or the consequences

Keep calling out the GOP for their own party’s president creating an environment of political violence.
Trump is sick & unhinged.
Call your reps.

Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russia’s wish list, not something the US drafted. He’s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.

He’s scrambling.

In short: Even though the court ordered discovery based on the likelihood of vindictive and selective prosecution, we don't even need to get into it and you should dismiss the charges now given we just learned the DOJ lied to a judge about Costa Rica not accepting Mr. Abrego.

The Ukraine ‘peace plan’ distracts from the real issue: why Russia’s desperate to keep fighting Say what you will about President Trump’s methods, but his wish to end Russia’s war is genuine. The problem is Moscow doesn’t want peace in Ukraine, it wants Ukraine in pieces. A panicking Vladimir…

the usa is not a state party to the ICC (the Hague) and does not recognise its jurisdiction. Although it signed the Rome Statute, it did not ratify it and in 2002 it effectively "unsigned" it, saying it no longer planned to ratify it.

The top general resigned over the first few murders. Since then, people have been found to give illegal orders, and of course hapless grunts (or do they use officers to press the buttons?) have been used as pawns in violation of their oath. On what planet was the wholesale JAG purge legal?

this is why members of Congress have issued a video reminding members of the military of their oath to the constitution, and their duty to refuse unlawful orders.

Tariffs apply to goods, not services. Zero in on the goods-producing sector, and you'll discover that it's hemorrhaging jobs. Indeed, the start of the trade war marks the peak in that sector, and it's been in recession ever since.

You know, man can take unto himself a wife. A wife can take unto herself a husband. That doesn't mean that they abandon their mothers and fathers and forget them. So, you know, every now and then academics talk about assimilation and how our various ethnic groups have, with time, dropped their ethnicity and become more ``American.'' Well, I don't know about that. It seems to me that America is constantly reinventing what ``America'' means. We adopt this country's phrases and that country's art, and I think it's really closer to the truth to say that America has assimilated as much as her immigrants have. It's made for a delightful diversity, and it's made us a stronger and a more vital nation.

Thanksgiving in Wisconsin shouldn’t require math homework, but Trump’s price surge means families are counting pennies, chasing sales, and putting food back on the shelf. Every aisle’s a reminder he broke his promises and your budget.

Dwight D. Eisenhower was right: a political party that lacks a moral and just foundation is not a party at all; it is a conspiracy to seize power, plain and simple.

They are speaking the truth

If that hurts your feelings, too bad

The military service falls under a different branch of justice

We are trained extensively on what a legal and illegal order is not. In fact, we had to carry the Geneva Convention rules of engagement in our kelvar
