Hegseth, with White House help, tries to distance himself from boat strike fallout As Congress vows accountability, the Trump administration emphasized it was a top military commander β€” not the defense secretary β€” who directed the engagement.

Hegseth is a dastardly poltroon unworthy of the men and women under his command.

So Trump is pardoning this guy but blowing up Venezuelans who probably aren’t trafficking anything?

Reposting so this doesn’t get lost in the β€œBlack Friday sales” news onslaught.

Sounds like Hegseth needs to be tried for war crimes immediately, instead of wasting time crying over real leaders who reminded others about NOT following IlLEGAL orders.

The Trump Administration is not really serious about reducing drug abuse and addiction in the United States. If they were, they would not pardon a convicted major facilitator of the drug traffic and would focus instead on cutting domestic demand.

General Santa Ana ordered no quarter and flew the black flag at the Alamo. The Mexican troops bayoneted every surviving Texican combatant.

First Nations tribes in Northeastern America and in Meso America did practice ritual killing of persons captured from other tribes, but I know of no evidence that they practiced human sacrifice of their own members.

But Trump thinks bribes are normal business practice, so of course "He did nothing wrong!"

Employee of a Federal Official Charged with Conspiracy to Falsely Report Violent Attack and Giving False Statements to Law Enforcement A New Jersey woman was charged with conspiring and falsely reporting to law enforcement that she had been violently assaulted with a firearm due to her employment with a federal official.

That woman is seriously deranged. But the story is confirmed by the Trump Administration's DoJ:

If you want a contemporary analog for human instinctive behavior unmediated by social constraints, consider a troop of male baboons wandering into a flock of ibises, tearing the birds heads off and eating the carcasses whole.

I am glad the DC MPD has the shooter in custody. Maybe we can get to a motive. There is no justification for ambushing US soldiers simply performing their duties. The penalty for each count of attempted murder is up to 20 years imprisonment.

Appeals court savages and dashes Trump's RICO lawsuit against Hillary Clinton "Trump’s attorneys filed the amended complaint in bad faith," the opinion reads. "Trump’s attorneys give us no reason to conclude the district court clearly erred in that finding."

A federal appellate court on Wednesday handed President Donald Trump a collection of losses in his yearslong effort to resuscitate a failed lawsuit against Hillary Clinton β€” and several others β€” based on claims the 2016 presidential election was rigged against him.

The Washington Post just published this. Between Trump, RFK Jr, Oz, and the EPA they are trying to kill us off.

Another blatant lie from the Trump delusion bubble.

He can't let Americans know that his military takeovers have little effect on crime, so he lies to our faces. There have been MANY murders in DC in the last 6 months. Does Trump not understand what Google is?

This will of course be an exhibit to Senator Kelly's motion to dismiss on the ground, among others, of impermissible command interference in the prosecution.
